raise your hand if you're tired of posts about freepers
I, for one, am definitely sick and tired of it.

If I wanted to know what freepers thought, I'd go there and find out.

Why drag their dogshit over here on your shoes? It only pollutes this place.

NOBODY CARES what those people think. They are a bunch of marginalized whackos who are, for the most part, actually insane.

2. THANK YOU!
I agree! I have been saying this for months.

I don't want to know what they are posting. I don't want to promote "understanding" or to bridge a divide.

I don't want to participate in posts designed to do nothing but to provoke them to retalliate here.

Leave them alone and let's get on to better things, like BEATING THOSE BUSH BASTARDS!

:thumbsup:

3. I am. This is DU, not Freep U!
If I want to hear about Freep or Drudge, I can go there. I know it's hard to resist, but please try, folks.

8. I think we probably elevate them by giving them so much attention --
are they as important as all that?

14. I dislike those as well as the ones "Bush said"
I'm sorry but i don't really wanna know what other lies he's told. If i did i'd do the hard work, go on his internets and find out what lies he told today. But,,,,,,,,then again i might forget Poland.

17. Well, I do. But it's more fun to spout my opinion
Seriously, I don't understand the obsession with Freepers.

It's like inspecting the dogshit you find on the sidwalk. I mean, who cares? It's dogshit!

They are human dogshit. They represent nothing.

19. While they do indeed represent "nothing"


Their torment is a measure of our collective success.

I gave up being nice when we got blown out in 2002.


Nope, I will fight as hard and as dirty as they will. This is about winning.

Take no prisoners.

It's too important.

16. yes
i could give a fuck what they say. if there were rational thought expressed then i`d read it even though i will basically disagree with another's point of view. these fucks don`t rise to the level of rational thought. i have always argued to ban posts from free republic but i guess it`s not going to happen.....

18. Raising hand
not worth a thought or the bandwidth. Those poor bastards are so far on the fringe that their opinions are completely irrelevant to anything.

They are often so funny and even rather amusing. Freep posts remind me of a trip to the zoo or a farm.

It is interesting to observe them in one of their natural habitats like Free Repuklic.

They can be heard to chant variations of: "I'm rubber! You're glue! Everything you say to me bounces off me and sticks on you!" Listen closely and you might hear them use "I know you are, but what am I?" in many, creative ways.

Watch them waddle around like ducklings following anything that moves and hoping that it's their Mommy. Notice how they will pick out anything of interest and dance around it wildly, flapping their tattered wings and wrinkling their snotty snouts. They often squeal with abandon over scraps of paper and bags of bullshit.

Watch them as their Alpha-Freeps lead them on the blessed ritual of the wild goose chase as they all shout, “Aeeyyymehn!” Notice the confused look on their faces when they are told up is down and down is up ... and they end up believing it. You'll marvel at their wacky attempts to walk on the sky.

Don't miss their mating season as the males drive around showing off their big guns and giving the familiar mating calls: “Wha-don-weee-gat-drunkan-screw!” and, “Ah-don-careif-weez-related-less-ball!”

Yup, don't want to miss the fun at Freeper Farm and Rupuglican Zoo.

Next installment: Freeper intellectuals are actually smarter than rocks! Believe it, or not!

22. I vote, "kick freeprs out of DU": chat about them is ok tho.
--freepers, they waste our time.
Even when they are polite, and run up over a thousand posts.
Waste our time.

Only kick the real definite ones out. Some fencesittrs might get kicked if we kick marginal cases, and that wouldnt be fair.

Or, might make a list of the definite ones for a "mass tombstoning at one click" for us who want to tombstone them all at once.

Frprs have wasted my time .. mainly before i learned to spot them fast. And their tricks. We have no time to lose in this election effort, and after it as well. Much work to do, so little time. Getting frprs off our backs would be a blessing.

thanks for reading this rant LOL,
oscar

23. sorta kinda...
Sometimes I visit there on my own, and then I feel very disgusted and sad. And my brain feels a little messed up because of their disjointed inarticulate posts, not to mention their pathetic board layout.

24. I agree wholeheartedly
I will never do FR any favors by clicking on their site, and I don't give a good goddamn what they think.

There are some members here who post so many freakin' freep threads, you reeeeeally must question their intent.

At least, I think they still post. I have them on ignore.

26. Well, I'm sick of STUPID polls too, but people keep posting those
You can't expect people to stop posting freeper threads- as much as i'd like them too- any more that you can teach people not to freak out over obviously invalid poll results that cause them to act just like the Republicans want them too.

I just wish they'd at least have the common courtesy to do more than simply post a link to a thread on the site.

I wonder if the people who do that realize how lame they are? If you're going to post stupid comments, at least copt & paste the stupid comments- don't try to drive up traffic at FR- or entice fellow DU'rs to visit that disgusting site.

That's jsut rude, man.
