Turns out that David Brock and his Smegma Matters.org team of low testosterone bed-wetters don’t matter. Are we supposed to believe the American Spectator David Brock or the Barney Frank hiney sniffer?
Cool. Can we get “Right Wing Smear Machine” t-shirts?
I don’t suppose they called for a comment before they ran their smear on MM???

I’m proud, although I’d like to point out that FR isn’t media in the usual sense so much as it is a forum where free people of conservative persuasion can discuss political events.
LOL! OMG, Jim Thompson must be trembling that media matters has ordered the truth be stopped.
I’ve been writing here for years.
Gonna Party like it’s 1999..
Those were the days. ;-)

“Smear machine?” They make themselves look bad; nobody needs us to do it. (Snicker.)
Yesterday I was looking for a particular post of my own from several years ago. I used Google to look for posts containing the tag line I used back then.
I was slightly shocked by how many (hostile) websites have used my posts, and the posts of other FReepers, to illustrate how “out of touch” or otherwise non-liberal are people here.
Another thing that’s surprising is how far the left-wing linkers have to go to make the case for malign intent here at Free Republic. In every case that I saw, the person who took offense (if that’s even the right term for it) had to intentionally distort/misunderstand my words to an absurd extent to make his point.
There are people out there who are absolutely convinced that Free Republic is comprised of extreme hate-mongers. They find evidence to support this theory in some of the most innocuous, calmly reasoned, restrained comments on this site.
Anyone who has been here a few years can Google your own FR screen name or a tag line and probably find your own words on anti-FR websites.
So pointing out that the president is partying while a serious crisis burns is now “a smear”? Hardly. Once upon a time, there were these things called “professional journalists” who found pointing something like that out to be part of their job.
That job is now the province of great internet reporters like FR’s Kristinn Taylor...!
The phone may be off the hook, but the *resident won’t be.
Looks like we’re doing The Lord’s Work to me! :)
Jim Thompson shall swing from the rafters for this!
He has soiled our reputation for civility by allowing this
freedom of speech thing to go on.
Nero fiddled, zero puttered.
