What Sweet Irony.
Kinda funny really. Though pathetic and sad at the same time.

I was reading the FRrules posts, especially the "Dean is a Socialist" thread and it occurs to me.

Here's a guy (I'm assuming FRrules was a guy) who's got too much time on his hands so he decides to disrupt us. On Labor Day. He's probably got the day off because it's Labor Day, and he takes to opportunity make the false claim that Dean is a Socialist.

On Labor Day.

He's probably anti-union, anti-working man, but he's sitting at home, getting Holiday pay.

On Labor Day.

I just don't get it.

2. Interesting...
Could 'FRules' possibly stand for 'Free Republic rules?' I hardly think Dean is a socialist, but that seems to be what conservatives like to call anyone who has great ideas and wants to serve the American people, not just corporations. I call Bush facist. ALL of his policies are geared towards putting the corporation and mammon above the human being.

3. I am certain FRrules was a freeper.
He has been tombstoned. A number of us alerted on him.

4. It was obvious
that he was here merely to disrupt, not to read or listen or even debate. I've tried to patiently listen to freeper arguments, but what I've found is that they are preaching and don't want to listen. When you finally get under their skin, they call you names and slink away. This was the first time I alerted on someone, and I'm glad he was tombstoned.

5. freepers
almost always ask questions in their original message posts...
so when one of us asks a question in an original message post, i'm immediately suspicious unless i recognize the poster's handle. i hate it when i do this (because young DUers really want to learn from us), but freeper lurkers have been multiplying here like cockroaches lately.
