Freeper Update
Edited on Sat Oct-09-04 01:55 AM by nostalgicaboutmyfutr
(Edited for spelling)

I wanted to soil my brain by wading in with the freeps for you...here are some quotes:

--------------
Dude, they are using BOTS to scure the polls, we can't compete with software designed to make kerry the winner in online polls. (comment: i wish someone would tell me about how 'we' are using bots...when i got SLAMMED for suggesting multiple voting)
--------------
Here's the link to the post disclosing that the questions are "pre-scripted". Also, Limbaugh said the same thing today (comment: that would be the book of Limbaughtomy Chapter 10 verse 8-9). http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1238869/posts
--------------
Am I the only one who's too nervous to watch the debate? I sent a prayer for W winging on its way many times today. Anyway, the MSM is going to say Kerry won. I'll wait to see what Rush has to say. (comment: That saves me from thinking for myself....)
--------------
Wow, nice call. This debate was so horribly one-sided and that moderator who picked the questions was awful, although I knew he was going to be.

How did you all like that one question from the audience for Bush that went something like: "Mr. President, please name 3 instances where you made mistakes during your Presidency." WHAT?! Who allowed that one?? Then Kerry gets a minute to comment on what he thinks Bush's mistakes were. Sheesh.
--------------
(Subject: The Wife Swap Show) It sounds like a deliberate attempt to create a red/blue conflict, but this .... "The Arkansas woman made her "new husband" take down his rebel flag, remove his guns and mounted ducks, and write poetry."
--------------
(Subject: talking about a group of freepers who went to a democrat event to 'freep' a quest that was a kerry crewmate) Chieftain and Recovering Ex-Hippie were on the way to the FReep when Chieftain realized that his SUV was slowing from desired 70 MPH Interstae speed due to a lack of fuel! Yep, I ran out of gas on I-295 as I was transitioning to I-95.......Finally we arrived at DemocRAT headquarters to meet those who figured out that cars DO need gas and were waiting on us!
--------------
(Subject: first debate) The worst part of Bush's performance last night was how he responded to Kerry's points. For example, Kerry would say things like: "There was no connection between 9/11 and Iraq", "Saddam had no connection to terrorism", "Iraq never had weapons of mass destruction", etc. etc. And I expected Bush to respond by saying something like: "Yes there was a connection and here's why I believe that", "Saddam was involved with terrorism and here's the evidence", "There were WMD in Iraq and here's the proof", etc. But instead Bush responded with statements like "Well, you voted for it also..." or "You...
--------------
(Subject: from first debate) Bush let us down tonight. He seemed confused, unfocused, on the defensive, and unconvincing. Kerry, on the other hand seemed strong, focused, and clear. Since coming to office Bush has done nothing but let us down. From expanding entitlement programs, to growing the deficit, to endorsing and expanding affirmative action, to failing to get conservative judges on the bench. Bush has done nothing but let us down in his four years. Losing the election will be his final "gift" to the Republican party.
--------------
President Bush should be thrown behind bars for assault. This one wasn't even a fair fight.
--------------


I feel sick...

4. non-geniuses indeed

I look at their threads and feel a time warp every time. They imagine they live in the United States of about 1975 or 1980, or (at best) they do live in the backwards parts of the South and Midwest where it still is 1975 or 1980... (Cue 'Twilight Zone' theme....)

Oh well, they're dinosaurs now so we'd better enjoy them and save one or two mating pairs before they die out. (Stuff the rest and use them to scare little kids!) The relevant philosophical question is: should we keep the last few in kennels, stys, or polar bear pits? And what do we do with their accumulated set of Darwin Awards?

5. No Darwin. Freepers Covering Ears.
Darwin? You can't say that to a Freeper. That's...that's blasphemous! :)
