Reply #4: I went to the FR a while ago and one freeper had the same complaint

[tandot]

about their fellow Freepers. Too much hate and violence.

"We have gotten too negative, too nasty, and too petty and small-minded."

And how about this post, defending calling Ms. Clinton "HITLARY":

"Since I am the descendent of Jews, I most certainly know what a fascist is.

And I am quite serious when I agree that Hillary Clinton, a US senator is a fascist.

I just love people who "certainly know what a fascist is" without having ever looked up the definition.

Hey LURKING FREEPERS, There ya go:
Fascism:
A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.

Fascism is more similar to what we have now with the Bush administration.
