Poll question: Free Republic?
What say you about our conservative counterparts?

1. You sort of left out a category...
I know damned well what it is, but wouldn't go over there if you paid me. I do, however read threads where posters have cut and pasted comments from over there. (and then I go take a shower and scrub myself down with sandpaper ;)

5. Same here, and only when Freak Republic isn't mentioned in the title
When it is, that's adequate warning to stay away, which I usually try to do.

All that delousing is too hard on my skin.

13. Me too. I'd imagine most of DU fits this category.

14. That's my category
I know who, what and where they are, but don't plan to go there for any reason.

19. Mea Culpa
I went back in to add it, and the timeframe must have expired right while I was in the process, because I'd added the category, and then it said "you can't edit this post."

2. Other. I know what it is but never go over there. I leave it to those of you who
are brave to bring us the "good stuff". Carry on! :headbang:

3. I go over there about once a year so I'll continue to appreciate what it's like...
...living among sane people.

6. I don't care about them in the least.
I read a thread every now and then that is posted here, but usually I just pass them by.

7. That website designed by third graders?



Third graders in a hurry and with a low budget at that. :rofl:

8. If post #1 were a poll option, that would be my vote. I count 5 of us so far.

11. Will not go over there, will not read threads that talk about them,
and I don't even like to think about that shithole of racism, xenophobia, and festering hatred for anyone who isn't white and Christian.

16. I will rarely even look at a post here that references their bullshit. If I click,
I move on before reading all of it usually.

20. Don't read it
Edited on Fri Sep-17-10 12:33 AM by TexasObserver
I don't see any point in reading threads about the latest idiocy from some right wing board.
