I figured out how to post on free rebublic - I post this.
This war is about the dumbest thing I have ever seen this country go into. I love the United States.
Joe for Clark


Posted on 09/11/2006 4:44:24 PM PDT by Joe for Clark


I have no issue with principled conservatives, nor liberals -I have no issue with a principled position, either way. I respect principle.

But this entire Iraq fiasco is not principled - just stupid.

We get nothing out of it - we will spend a lot of money and put alot of our kids in harms way for a war of foreign interest. That is not liberal and that is not conservative. - It is just bizzare. My boy is one of those kids, and I have had it. My family is very military -blood all over the world. This one crosses the line.

The United States is an eagle with a left and a right wing. They have a purpose. But for sure, when the left wing and the right wing bend and meet each other, it is a truth. They are meeting in the middle right now.

It is a sad thing to watch.

Joe for Clark

That didn't take long! Just like what happened to ME! It's lock-step or lock-OUT! Sorry for laughing-but it wasn't AT you, it was WITH you.

27. You have reached the next level of enlightenment, grasshopper.
You will know that you have reached the state of true enlightment when your desire for ass-kickin' transcends the misguided hope that your opponents have a principled nature.

Your opponents will only reach a state of principled enlightenment when their heroes face trial for crimes against humanity.

... or they'll just shut up. Either way, it's all good.

29. Words of great wisdom Master Lumberjack_jeff...
From Hunter @ KOS:

"Because no matter how stupid you think conservatives are -- you get two or more of them in a group, and it's like a singularity of stupid, from which no actual competence can escape. They're just that goddamn dumb."

16. I just wanted to say -Skinner/ the mods here are really good.
They have my respect.

They do look at this stuff. A few times they emailed me about posts they thought could cause flares going up in FP, etc..

Jesus, I never thought they were so right until now - this is really unbelievable to me.

Those guys at FP are REALLY scary!!!

7. It's because these freaks spend more time over here --
they just cross referenced your post probably. DU has been absolutely destroyed by them. I honestly believe that there's more freeps than DUers here. It makes me sick.

21. I don't think many Freepers dare to lurk here very long.
I spend lots of time at Free Republic, and used to post there before RimJob started taking money from the RNC and had to start censoring everything that Karl Rove wouldn't like to see posted.

Nothing I read over there affects me at all except to make me laugh and sneer, because I see right through their coat-of-many-lies. For example, I know there's nothing to the charge that Jamie Gorelick erected a 'wall' between FBI and Justice that impeded our monitoring of Bin Laden.

Truth affects Freepers like light does vampires. It sends them into apoplectic seizures. Their immediate instinct is to lash out -- harm, kill, fax, call, scream, whatever it takes to muzzle truth-tellers by any means necessary.

I can laugh at the nonsense they post at Free Republic. But wingnuts cannot laugh at what they see on DU, because the truth burns them like white phosphorous.

That's why I don't think very many Freepers hang around here very long.

10. I didn't read all the posts before I posted
below. I knew that you would be banned because everyone is banned if you don't tow the line 100%. That's why I call them bushbots.

33. They didn't know me,
but they did after my one post, and I guess they didn't like what I said. But it wasn't even disrespectful (in my opinion). ;)

I think I'm more liberal than moderate.

It is very sad that our country is so divided. We do need both wings to be a democracy.

22. You knew better,
30 seconds sounds pretty strong to me right about now.

I know better now too, I guess.

I appreciate you not laughing out loud, I feel pretty stupid for even trying.

But I'll tell you - boy do they have a day in hell coming to them!!!

20. You signed it "Joe for Clark"????
You didn't give yourself a chance with that sig.

You should have tried "Joe mentum" or Holy Joe.
At least then, you might have got a running start.

30. DU is the best in this regard.
I've been from free republic for saying I had voted for Dems at various times,I pick the candidate I like best.
I 've been banned from Democrats.com for saying " I am an ordinary Dem, I voted for Reagan"



I like to talk/discuss politics with people of DIFFERENT viewpoints( plenty of them here)


who could enjoy discussing politics only with those in lock step with yourself?



DU is the best political site I've EVER come across, and thanks to the mods for that!

31. Ironic that all these pseudo-patriots who ACT like they are Pro-Military
would ban someone who honors a Retired General Officer.

Those bastards are not only shameless, they're pathetic beyond belief. My sympathies go out to any politically moderate person who has to listen to them spew their inane logic and FALSE sense of patriotism. Freepers define hate and intolerance of "the other." They are each seemingly a poster child of "The Un-American." :thumbsdown:
