I tried to post something at freerepublic.com, and....

I registered as a new user a couple of days ago, with the username of "bushisanidiot"
Today I went there to make my first post, and when I clicked on "Post," I was simply sent to a page that says, "Your posting privilege has been revoked."
Before I had even made a single post!

3. I registered and posted there yesterday

I was not crude, or rude. I simply informed the freepers that their country is being stolen right out from underneath them and they won't wake up. I told them that I hoped Boxer stood today, and that I hoped every dem stood with her.

Boom...I was dead

5. Really? I can't imagine why. LOL

I'm not allowed there either - apparently free thinking isn't allowed anyway.

10. I did see someone try to get away with "Bush is Great"

He didn't last very long though.

13. Have you been banned before?

I know that they monitor I.P. addresses, if you've been kicked off before there's a good chance they just kick off any user-name accessed from your I.P.

Their moderators are pretty hot on catching and killing outsiders.

15. If anyone wants to see what they are missing on FreeRepublic,

simply make your way into the bowels of any New York City subway and inhale deeply.

And with that, I HAVE OFFICIALLY HIT MY 1000'S POST!!! YAY!
