Freepers heads exploding; they are at each others throats.
See http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x1143161#1145535 for info.

The Border Patrol posted a denial about the story that was published earlier. Someone supposedly figured out that it was based on a mistranslation from a Mexican web site. Over in freeperville they're trying to figure out how to blame Clinton (really!):

They are acting completely, totally, batshit crazy; their true form comes out.

2. Re:
(Sigh) It always goes back to Clinton, doesn't it?

Can't these people find a different tune?

3. Yeah, apparently they haven't picked a Goldstein
it's either Clinton or Osama. Kinda like how on a soap opera sometimes they have a stand-in, heh.

5. 1984
Goldstein is the govt-engineered bogeyman and focus of hate for the citizenry.

6. Thanks!
It has been so long since I read that novel. But, Orwell's choice of names is interesting, no?

7. Interesting?
No, more like an historically obvious choice. He picked a group that has been scapegoated by virtually every society in Europe at one time or another.

9. "The Border Patrol posted a denial"
Trying to repair the breach with a big lie, as Bushco always does!

I'll bet Bush has spied on everyone at Freak Republic since day one.

10. a prayer.....
shaking my head at this...

To: Sir Gawain; Howlin; onyx; Peach; prairiebreeze; Miss Marple; Faith; Blogger; kayak; kitkat; ...
I agree hatred is a sin. I don't hate the man. I just disagree with many of his domestic policies.
Then you are not in the group I am referring to who are eating this forum alive with their seething hatred.

If you will forgive me, I am going to exercise my freedom of speech here and offer a prayer on behalf of this forum.....

Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You tonight, thanking You for this forum, and for JimRob who began it, and who has continued to nurture it and turn it into a powerful force for good. I know, Lord, that this is not a 'religious' forum, but I also know that it stands for GOOD, and that because of its influence and encouragement, the life of the unborn, marriage, morality, justice and righteousness are all raised up in this country.

Father, I love this country, and I thank You daily for President Bush and for his integrity and morality, and unwavering strength of character and conviction.

But, Lord, he has come under the most withering and hateful attack of any President since Lincoln........and it is not because of disagreement with his policy. It is because of hatred of his person, and his being Your child. And we are seeing that hatred manifest itself before our very eyes today.

Father, I ask You right now to get a hold of the Evil that has been struggling to take this forum down, and that You would bind it, and defeat it. I pray that righteousness and honor would be raised up, and that hatred would be defeated, in Your Name, and in the Name of Your Son, Jesus, whose blood was shed for the forgiveness of our sin.

Keep us from sinning, O Lord, and wash us clean, and bring the power of what is right and good back to Free Republic. In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen.

13. Wow. That is a prayer headed straight for Satan.
Sad that he doesn't realize Junior is Satan's minion, but I guess that is how the anti-Christs rise to power by fooling the ignorant.

:nopity:

14. That's one of those
kneejerk boilerplate prayers you hear all the time from wingers. There must be a fill-in-the-blank template they've all memorized, or something.
