I sincerely hope the Secret Service is keeping an eye on Free Republic
Those people are truly nuts:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2181648/posts?q=1&;page=1

How ironic is it that the very site which accused Democrats of being "sore losers"when Bush got in are now hinting at armed insurrection because they lost.Some of those posters are truly frightening,if you read the posts,one guy even says he has nothing to lose and is prepared "to do anything to save his grandsons" from the evil Democrats.Seriously,there are some really disturbed people over there.

2. I'm sure the FR readership from here will keep them appraised of the situation
Edited on Mon Feb-09-09 01:45 PM by Donnachaidh
The same way that Freepers probably kept the Bush White House appraised of comments made on DU.

3. If you feel like walking around in the muck over there, by all means...
I'm still trying to rinse the filth off my pantlegs from the last time I visited.

7. Oh, the Secret Service monitors that wacko site.
Edited on Mon Feb-09-09 01:51 PM by MineralMan
But there are much more insidious things going on, and the people involved are not blabbing nonsense at sites like Freak Republic.

It always puzzles me, though, that the idiots over there keep talking about a revolution, and right after a normal, constitutional transfer of powers from one President and Congress to another. Did we not just have an election? Did not the people who won that election become the government, just as described in the Constitution?

WTF are those morons talking about.

Molon freaking Labe my red ass.

If anything he seems to be moving our government back into compliance.

11. I have exchanged a couple of emails with a RW freak over the weekend -
what happened is, a friend up north emailed everybody in her address book a letter and video link about bald eagles up in Redding. A guy on her list responded with a RW diatribe and apparently hit Reply All, lol.

So I felt it was my civic duty to respond to him, and did, and he responded with MORE crap, so I sent a big long lecture and told him I had Googled him and was gonna tattle to everybody around him (AND our apparently mutual friend) if he didn't leave me alone. Oy. Dangerous freepers - this particular one is in Austin, TX.

I can post his name, address, phone #, email address, wife's name, text of the email exchange etc here if you'd like, lol (J/K).

12. They are... They have the NSA cataloging everything on Bush's Spy Machine..
And soon, they will round all of them up and place them in the FEMA internment camps. Some will get re-educated, but some will be sent to Gitmo to undergo 'enhanced techniques' for information about their organization. That's why Obama had to get the terror suspects out of there.

It is okay to talk about this now, isn't it?

20. That's monumental moranity.
And somehow appropriate.

I'll stop being elitist now. Isn't it great that our society is so open that anyone can participate in public discourse?

what you have read. I have done as much and more and will continue to be an activist for freedom. That is your duty as an American citizen. We have to be active and vigilant or our freedoms will disappear in the apathy that can come from winning the Presidency.

38. In all fairness....
Some of the buffoons are probably trying to stock pile weapons and draft plans to overthrow the government, so they fear that force would be used against them, to haul their sorry asses off to jail. They see themselves as freedom fighters, not terrorists, just as they saw Osama bin Laden as a freedom fighter a few decades ago.

26. They keep an eye on all the political forums

If I recall even DU popped up on their radar a few years ago. I suspect that once you merit attention, they never stop watching even if an election occurs.

27. I suggest they heed the advice of one of their own.
Patriot Action Plan

Posted on 11/08/2006 9:23:55 PM PST by samadams2000

1)Hug your conservative wife and conservative children. Jettison all liberal or Rino leaning children. 2) Buy more firearms and ammunition 3) Buy bullion ( Silver rounds appear to be best value) 4) Turn off your TV. Ingest no media other than FR. 5) Rediscover yourself, not in a washed out hippie looking at your life's devastation way, but review your accomplishments. You are a valued member of FR society. 6) Obtain Crusade outfit/ Store 7) Buy a new American Flag 8) Read a book on the American revolution. Adams or Angle in the Whilwind. 9) Go to Barnes and Noble and take out all the subscription cards to Time and Newsweek and mail them in for processing. It costs them $4 to process each piece of litter. 10) Await The Call. Somebody important must step up and make it.

30. So liberals
Don't have families, lives, jobs, and businesses to run??

Employers must selectively lay off liberals, because if a conservative were to lose their job, they would then become a traitorous liberal socialist...Horrors!!!


"The problem with protesting is that conservative have families, lives, jobs and businesses to run. Protesting wirks fine for liberals because they can get thousands of students, unemployed or illegals in the street in short order."

32. what amazes me
they don't get that America is made up of AMERICANS and most of those AMERICANS disagree with them. Who do they think is going to run out and have a revolution with them? The 75% who approve of the president?

33. You know what else struck me?
In the course of talking about "revolution", some of them are actually worried about the possibility of being injured or killed by the Army or National Guard. Or, at the very least, arrested.

Uh...nothing quite like believing in a cause one would die for, huh? Or go to jail for.


They'll support the troops and glorify in the needless death, but god forbid one of them should get a scratch or something while protesting something they find Pure Evil.

Bunch of whining underpants sniffers...

36. I'd worry even more about Topix
Even though they allow all viewpoints on that site, it's becoming nothing but a huge RW circle jerk, and some of the posters explicitly threaten to kill liberals, start a Civil War, or try to harm Obama.

40. what a nauseating bunch of whining
I like the guy who refused a check from Bank of America because they took bailout money...and here I thought Rethugs were supposed to be such astute businessmen. Pretty soon he'll have to barter for chickens and overalls, because most banks have their hand in the till.

it's subscription so I can't link it, but there are some twisted people there.

42. It would be easy to assume they have enough cause for
monitoring or wiretapping on the racist groups. Internet posts alone show intent, even if armchair, shows what organizations they support. I wonder if "material support to terrorists" bugs them now. It's just projection, they know they cheered on Cheney and Annthrax and the rest about interpreting the Constitution so as to somehow make it OK to lock up liberals and Muslims and all those unAmurkan people.
