1. I have been banned
from there more times than I can count. This last time was because I asked someone if they would have a problem with American soldiers being treated like we treated the Iraqi prisoners. I don't see what the problem was -- it was some blowhard going on about what sissies Democrats are because they have a problem with frat boy pranks being played on Iraqis.

Another time was when I referred to George H.W. "Poppy" Bush puking on the Japanese prime minister. Oh well, I'll be back there soon. That place is like a train wreck. I can't stop watching.

2. I was banned by Freep Admin within two minutes of my first post
All I wanted was to repost an article that I had written for DU. Imagine banning me for that?

I'm still banned and proud.

3. I was banned too...
Edited on Fri Feb-04-05 05:18 PM by TwoSparkles
I posted a message and within 2 minutes I was banned.

Curious, because I was posing as a freeper--concerned about Bush's radical agenda.

I guess freepers who begin to question the Borg-like mentality over there are banned immediately.

I posted the initial message and within a minute someone responded. I tried to respond to the post and I had all ready lost my posting privileges. All in about 2 minutes. LOL!

8. It's "stupidgopmorons" backward.
I know it's a little redundant, and I'm sure you can do better, but the idea is to make it a challenge for them. ;)

7. How about "Bush is God"?
I wonder if the Freep@$$es will see through a sarcastic name like that.

9. The way to keep from getting banned over there
is instead of saying it's your own opinion say it's your next door liberal neighbor's who just moved there from Mass. with his gay kids, then ask how to rebut him
