Help! I have NOT made the Freeper's Top Ten list this year. Time is running out. I need some sugg
suggestions on something to post that will at least get me in the running.

Last year I questioned if the Republicans might have Dean wiped out if he were #1 in the elections. That got me a standing ovation from Freeperville.

I just can't think of anything that would make me worthy of a Freeperville award for this year.

Help me!!!!

:)

9. I don't know how to provide a link. The only reason I even knew anything about it was that somebody
posted the list from there to here. I never, ever go to FR, so don't know how their stuff works.

12. Oh, that never occurred to me
I've only got a few posts that outraged them enough to be specifically noticed and the sarcasm within them (clearly labeled, of course) was taken out of context.

I expected far more from them. I guess they rarely read anything but the original post.

13. Awesome - they've mentioned me a few times!

Glad to know that some of my posts have pissed them off! I see one of them even threatened me with bodily harm, despite the fact that I've never even posted on their site.

4. hmmm....let's see
Trashing St. Ronnie is probably the ticket - Bush has lost some of his lustre to the freepturds but they still love the beast Reagan.

Come up with an enchanting Christmas story about the Ghosts of Republicans past. Make Rockefeller a hero and Ronnie a bastard and watch the nominations fly!

Out of all the lame conservative sites, why is FR the nemesis?

16. Highlander is a really bad movie. See it, laugh, and you'll totall get the
ridiculousness of the DU/FR rivalry.

10. Just post a thread that says you hate Murika, and that will
cause their heads to explode, while moving you to at least the #10 position.

14. I didn't even know they had such a list.
What is it, their ten most-hated posts from here?

Oh, and re. your upthread question, Highlander is a movie about sword-fighting immortals who battle each other through the centuries, because, as we all know, There Can Be Only One.

17. This year we're supposed to give them all a big group hug, apparently.
I don't understand it.

They post shit like "It's time to take Amerika back from the National-Socialist Facists!" and "Leftists are to America as Aids is to people!", but I'm close to being banned here on DU for even bringing that up.

I didn't even have to look far to find those quotes. They're linked to in the profile of the person that other monster thread is about.

18. That person lost a 14-year-old child
A child who will now never have the chance to figure things out for themselves. I'm not dogging you for your opinion, but I don't think you should be surprised at an outpouring of compassion after such an event.

20. On average, 40,000 Americans die every year in traffic accidents.
http://www.nhtsa.com/people/Crash/crashstatistics/National%20Highway%20Safety%20Data%20charts.pdf

Why is one Freeper's kid deserving of special attention from us?

Where are the threads receiving similar attention for each and every American soldier killed in Bush's war in Iraq?

22. Because that grieving mom posted to a website to which she belongs
asking for good thoughts. I have a 14yo son. I can't imagine her pain and I pray to God I never do.

Of course everyone who loses someone deserves sympathy for their situation. When my dear friend's husband was killed by a drunk driver two years ago, it wasn't on the net because they're both computer illiterate.

Just because this woman is on the other of the fence politically doesn't make her undeserving of support.

I wish her God's love and healing, because having spent the last years dealing with the deaths of loved ones, I have *somewhat* of an idea what she is going through. Although having a beloved elderly parent pass pales in comparison to what she is going through.

Look into your soul, Wonk, find some compassion for her. You'll feel better.

23. Goodbye And Good Riddance.
Your utterly pure hatred towards other human beings in times of tragedy is something that should NEVER be tolerated. I'm not sure a single comment or sentiment ever quite disgusted me or repulsed me as much as what I saw last evening.

I despise freeprs with all my being for how they think, and I believe they support policies that are estremely harmful to America - but I wish them and their families NO harm whatsoever and feel compassion for ANYONE in pain

24. You SERIOUSLY Need A New Hobby... Seriously.
I couldn't imagine this ever being something worthy of care, time, or having its own thread.

But if you require attention that much, even if it means having to garner negative attention from those on the other side, than more power to ya.

Did find this silly though, but what can ya do.
