Freeper Madness..
Beware of low count posters hyping "bad" polls and pushing discouraging "what if" questions...

4. Yes! Think back to when you were a newbie...did you come in blasting
the Dems or hyping bad news? Only freepers do that.

They usu. couch their "bad news" like, "I'm really worried. All the polls show Kerry will lose. I'll be so mad I could spit if Bush wins! How will we get through the next four years?"

7. As a 'newbie' I thought this place was a cover for freepers!!!!
As a newbie (right after the 2000 debacle) I came here and thought Will Pitt and Underpants were 'freepers' (though I had never heard that term till much later) I thought they were not 'left' enough?

I got kicked out...banned. Moved, got a new phone number, came back and started to READ and not post! I discovered I was WRONG...

I love this site..and thank god I moved and was able to come back and see this site from a different perspective. To me....:spank:

9. Nope...
I don't hype bad news...

Some of the stuff here is overly "Cassandraish" or "Pollyannaish"..


I try to deal with facts...

6. What if
When he's thanking everyone who worked to get him elected, Kerry actually acknowledges the work that DU'ers and other blogs did to help expose some of the last minute lies of Rove and Co.?

That'd be something, eh? ;)

10. Worth it's own thread...
"When he's thanking everyone who worked to get him elected, Kerry actually acknowledges the work that DU'ers and other blogs did to help expose some of the last minute lies of Rove and Co.?

Longlongtime lurker here before I started posting...

Think about all the stuff that never made MSM untill DU posters started spreading it around...

Caging story for example...

Others?
