FREEPER CBS boycott FAILS!! Comes to grinding halt...
once everyone realizes they're ALREADY boycotting CBS!!

Funny stuff:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1258322/posts

Notice how in the topic article they continue to lie about the NBC story. Do you think in the back of a freeper mind, they realize they're lying? Are they all complacent, or do they actually convince themselves that 2+2=5?

Why doesn't anyone stand up and say
"Uh...sure ok let's boycott them. But in reality NBC corrected that report and pointed out no search was done by the 101st".

It's scary how the truth is so easily tossed aside by them.

1. A high capacity for self delusion is a key prerequisite to be a freeper.

2. Every See Pictures of a Freeper Rally?
It's about 3 kids who don't fit in with anybody. The truth is tossed aside by many people, depending on their agenda.

Corporate advertising is all lies, generalities and platitudes and rhetoric. Government propaganda is greed-based, cover-your-butt insanity. Most media coverage is biased as hell in that it is clearly only presenting one side of an issue and worse, tries to create a tension, like in a sitcom, wherein the viewer is supposed to remain attentive only long enough for them to sell you something.

Paying attention to what freepers say is a complete waste of time. It's like trying to analyze why the Klan hates minorities. They're jerks, for as many reasons as people can be jerks.

Freepers are hateful for whatever reasons they choose. They'll have to change themselves. If you want to help people like that, become a therapist and charge them $110 an hour. If you want to understand them, get a better hobby.

7. Funny
I have a pic of a freeper pro-war rally somewhere - the big joke about it was that there were more Portapotties than freepers..

love the cBS thing, they actually LIVE in an alter reality don't they?

They wouldn't know the truth if it bit them in the ass.

5. With some of the digital cable systems,
They can query what you have showing. Some in realtime, some when the thing phones home. In fact, neilson is trying to put something together with the directTV/tivo crowd. Large sample, no new hardware.

Unfortunately, sometimes paranoia is true.

6. ROTFL!
Look at this graphic. See? Nixon really was a hero. Reagan really wasn't a fraud. Vietnam really was a just war. They're got the whole conspiracy figured out - CBS is to blame for EVERY CRIME the repukes have committed for 70 years!!!
