I really am sickened by freeper types. On another website I frequent
that is supposed to be nonpolitical, they are slandering Al Gore and making fun of "An Inconvienent Truth". Their reasoning it sickening and they claim Gore is a "liar" and a "media" whore. I havre no patience for the stupidity of these people. They are arguing that global warming does not exist and they also say they do not care about what happens to the earth after they are gone as nothing can be done and it is "God's will". Argh.
Their favorite quote against Gore is one in which he justifies exaggeration for effect and to get attention. They call that "lying' and then when another poster confronted them about the WMD and the Admin's lying, they responded that the "Wmd's had been "found' and the media was lying! People such as this make me fear for America and make me dislike a portion of our people. We must win in November. The stupid cannot continue to dominate this country.It is unacceptable.

8. I dunno about that.They just don't like facts and throw Gore in the mix
because he is easy to attack. He really is boring , and has no charisma but he is very intelligent. Intelligence is a quality they cannot appreciate. That being said, I, myself ,don't consider Gore viable but wonders never cease. I will support whomever is the candidate(Except Zell Miller and he isn't likely!}( )

2. You have to remind yourself of just how marginal this attitude's becoming
While online cretins just love to strut their stuff and make you think they're bigger/vaster/whatever, don't forget, EVER, that justice is ALWAYS on our side, and things are turning our way in the real-life marketplace of ideas.

Y'know what made me feel good today? I was looking at some pollingreport.com figures, and looked at a question about job descrimination against gays. Did you know that 89%-- EIGHTY FREEKIN' NINE PERCENT!--of Americans polled don't believe that people should be denied employment due to sexual orientation?

Fuck those Freepers. Just call them what they are--backwash.

3. Thanks
Thanks for your service. No kidding. It is difficult to hang out in these places but slowly YOU make the difference. I share and sympathize with your efforts.

11. they found a few crates of 20+ year old chemical munitions
that were, as far as weapons go, slightly more useful than commercialy available organo-phosphate based bug spray and that's enough for them to justify 2,500 American lives; maybe 50,000 Iraqi civilians and who knows how many Iraqi Security Force members (I for one have never seen any kind of ISF body count but you can be sure it's at least 2-3x the US figure) not to mention the $100 billion spent and all of this within the first 4 years of an operation that will likely last ten years (IMHO). Now they have the right to say: "see, we told you so".

7. They HAVE kids and say they still don't care because there is nothing they
can do as it is "God's will' and they also say America is the least contributor for pollution and we should stop blaming the USA. They also say Gore didn't support KYOTO!

6. freepers are killing their own party..
most of the diehard Republicans I knew a decade ago are now sick of their party or would rather just not talk about it! If the Democrats don't win this election, then why even have two parties?

the freepers who argue that the media is lying and Bush is always right only believe in nazism. These conservatives don't want a free market any more than a free press. They don't believe in small government any more than they support the right to bear arms. They don't believe in winning wars any more than they believe in paying for it. To a true freeper..morality is nothing more than an excuse for committing murder. For a freeper being pro-life is nothing more than just dumping another pet!
