Freepers are a wonderful bunch of people.
I almost gagged this morning watching c-span. Arkansas Gov. Huckabee performing at the Freeper Ball, with his band. Say's "They're a wonderful bunch of people.":puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

3. I Watched The Whole Q and A With Him...
Edited on Mon Feb-14-05 08:43 AM by DemocratSinceBirth
Outside of his calling the Democratic party the Democrat party and playing at the Freepers ball he reminded me of the Baptist pastor of my youth...He was an extremely other directed man but I can't imagine having a discussion with him now about the great social issues of our day...

10. He is a Baptist minister!! The only thing good he's accomplished
in the years he's been governor, is that he's lost about 100 pounds of fat!! He was diagnosed as diabetic last year.

2. they're having another purge at Freeperville.
Apparently Rimjob is having another purge of anyone who isn't enough of a Bushbot. This time it's over immigration issues. You can read some of the whines here...

http://www.alipac.us/ftopic-244-days0-orderasc-0.html

I especially enjoyed the ones from former Freeps that said Rimjob had been a lifelong Democrat! Was that on Bizarro World?


hey freeps, you lay down with fascist dogs, you get fleas!

4. RimJob's purging the intelligent ones
from the looks of the forum in your link.

Whines, yes, but surprisingly LITERATE whines.

and they revel in it.

6. That's so ridiculous; most conservatives can't stand
Bush's stance on immigration. So they don't allow real conservatives there anymore? They just want everyone to agree with Bush? What about the deficit? Is everyone supposed to go along with Bush now? I guess they want everyone on their site to say, "Yes, I'm a conservative, but I'm totally okay with the exploding national debt and illigal immigrants."

7. That's pretty much it
No criticism. No questions. 100% blind faith only, please. If you don't loudly sing the praises of every single solitary thing * says or does you are not welcome. You're not even allowed to ask for something to be clarified - if you don't accept it immediately for the work of the Lord Himself, then you're obviously a dangerous loon.

Pretty much SOP. Remember that thinking and education are both now vices in the literal sense, and things that must be purged.

Thought has no place in the New And Better World.

9. I'm glad we're not like that.
We can disagree with our candidates as much as we want, as long as we're not here to disrupt.

8. I do love watching them eat their own
They make every attempt to silence every voice that isn't a perfect xerox of their own, then act shocked and horrified when it becomes their turn to be silenced.

It's a beautiful thing to watch.

11. Oh that IS fun to watch
Edited on Mon Feb-14-05 11:54 AM by LittleClarkie
I followed that link to another in Freeperville.

Some putz posted this graph to point out that immigration was low on the list that folk care about, so the vocal minority should shove it I guess.



But man, I wouldn't show that graph too much if I were them. The things Americans ARE worried about read like a laundry list of things that the Bush administration have f-ed up so far: the war, social security, health care.

So the way some of these guys are talking, does that mean they didn't all vote for Bush in Freeperland? Is that allowed?

I can't believe one of them is talking about Bush's "cult of personality." Oh, do we have a few Libertarians in the mix, pray tell. Or just an outbreak of sanity. Oh, we'd better do something about THAT. It could be catching, thinks JimRob.

And look at where "limits on lawsuits" is. So what's the first thing they get passed? Limits on lawsuits!!
