How many of you refer to all RWers/Republicans as Freepers now?
I find myself doing this all the time, even if they don't post there or don't use the internet much. Maybe it's because I consider the term 'Freeper' as something referring to a certain mindset rather than a nickname that associates you with a place you post.

How many of you guys do this same thing? I bet I am not alone.... :)

3. Freepers are ones who are overdosing on the kool-aid...
That's how I refer them. My mother I call RW because she's a fundie and still loves bush, but she's not all the way over the edge. She's pro-choice and calls herself a feminist. Her and a group of women filed a class action lawsuit against Safeway several years ago for for their anti-women harrassment and inequality practices.

4. Nope...
... "`pugs" is shorter (and short for Repuglican, which, in turn, is short for repugnant Republican).

Makes it easy that way. :)
