1. I've noticed when those threads are comparatively short, they know
they're fighting a losing battle. If they had any concrete, sane, opinions that were legitimate there would be pages and pages of outrage....sigh.

3. Freudian Analysis
I am a psychology student, and let me try to psychoanalyze the gun thing: Fear of castration. Probably they are deeply insecure people, and use the gun as a phallic symbol of power and manhood. Therefore, any attempt to remove said gun is castrating. lol Not a Freudian,so it is dime store analysis,but man is it fun to play with.

10. The loss of power bit's probably not that far off.
Their candidates are impotent, the world's collapsing around them, and their ideas have been rendered irrelevant. Take guns from them and there goes their last way to concretely express their will to power.

4. How pathetic is a site that won't even let members say "Shit". You
can even say "shit" on cable TV.

Still blaming the CRA for the current problems, not the greedy wall st. bankers.

5. Protest= /fail
I am 27, I still love the /fail joke. Check out the Million brain cell march to protest. The guy in the first photo is exactly the kind of informed person I want dictating U.S. policy.

The only people I've ever heard call him that are rightwingers talking about us.

6. The most Superior Republicon in the Freeper Room...
The problem was created in large part by sub prime exotic mortgages. The solution? Government subsidized sub prime exotic mortgages.

The definition of insanity- Doing the same thing over and over, yet expecting different results.

Obama mortgage solution= insanity. Any questions?

Bold is mine, but I think this translates from Freeper to English, "F*ck everyone. I don't care about anyone but my cold, callous self. But I am the most Self-Righteous prick in the the room because I espouse a feel good cause about which I could care less."

11. It's useful to keep an eye on the opposition's arguments in order to stay sharp.
Of course, these days those arguments are sounding more and more like the caterwauling of a drunk toddler - full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

12. Nice Quote from Shakespeare, easily my fav.
And I do this because I firmly believe that humour is our greatest weapon, because it allows people who have other beliefs to see the ridiculousness of their position, without insulting them, something our side needs to less of. Plus, I have tons of free time at work, and I like the feedback from you guys.

13. I have a question about the article quoted: is that correct?
Because, if it is, then it's not a great plan.

It wasn't how I read the plan and the fact that it's posted in Freeperville makes the sourcing suspect, but I want to know what the actual plan is so I can counter-educate people who will believe this.

16. The "Plan"
Being on Free republic, I am always tempted to call Bravo Sierra.The opposite plan seems to be casting people into Dickensian poorhouses.This Obama plan basically treats these lenders like loan sharks, and forces them to renegotiate the deal. The conservative line, in my opinion, is viewed through a prism of attempting to maintain the Status Quo. All they want is to maintain, which is a large part why their base fits a certain mold, White people who have traditionally had power, and react negatively to having ti taken away. This mortgage crisis, caused by deregulation and natural human greed, can be laid almost wholly at their feet. To do nothing, essentially what we have done previously on the consumer end of this, fits within their reliance on the status quo. Ask whoever disparages the plan exactly what they will do. Then go get coffee while they stammer and say tax cuts. Or attack the poor or people who can't fight back, which fits their bulling, selfish attitude perfectly.

15. There they go with the Community Reinvestment Act lie again
And I guess they are in no danger of losing their jobs. Freepers are so much more virtuous than the rest of us, you know, and never ever buy anything they can't afford and have no chance of losing their jobs and never make a mistake.:sarcasm: And they can't enjoy that unless those who make a mistake pay for it and never get a break and never get any help.
