closeted Gay Republicans who employ foreigners?

4. Would that be like asking a computer to calculate Pi
until it repeats?

3. Doesn't compute at all
I've never seen any actual humanity displayed at Frei Republik before. It's a sign of the Apocalypse.

Must be DU infiltrators.

As to the hatemongers, that's just FR business-as-usual.

5. So many people to hate, so little time...
:think:

Freepers are at the bottom of the evolutionary (oops, intelligent design-ary) ladder.

12. It's mind boggling that they still beat the crap out of us
in terms of "users per million" ratio.

17. There is a reason for that.
Most of us here are smart enough not to install the spyware Alexis Toolbar.

Those statistics are only counts of people stupid enough to do so!!!!

19. No problem.
Lying with statistics is par for the course with freeptards.

Along those lines, I give my highest recommendations to "How To Lie With Statistics" by Darrell Huff. It is an absolute CLASSIC that everybody here needs to read!

11. I don't understand the fascination DUers have with freeperville.
I get enough of them in the real world w/o hunting them down in cyberland. What's up with that?

13. As a Canadian (and not living in Alberta), I actually don't
see a lot of them in real life. Hence my curiosity.

16. Well, no, but at least we get very few
religious freaks and right-wing nuts. Come and see for yourself if you don't believe it.

21. Knowing that they are sociopathic is enough for me. And,
I don't see anything funny about them at all. Thanks for responding though.

22. And nobody is suggesting you go there...
It takes a cast iron stomache to hand out there for long. But it is always eye-opening.

serious left/right war being waged there.

24. Some of them make some sense:
Love the qualifier of "gay" in the headline.

Should read:

2 gay Americans flown to Miami hospital after beating on Carib island


and

Exactly. It's the lense the left wing media sees everything through. I don't have to agree with, or like their lifestyle. But beating someone with a tire iron is just wrong no matter what, and I fail to see what their lifestyle has to do with this at all.


I'm not sure how left-wing the media is (seems somewhat right-wing these days), but the guy is right. You may not agree with a person, but violence is wrong - period. And, yeah, lifestyle has no relevance at all. Some despicable people beat up two innocent people with tire irons. Take the barbarian baboons and lock 'em up w/hard labor. Or, better yet, draft them if they're so keen to kill.

25. I hope that some of that was the same sort of things we see here
where some a$$hole comes along and posts something totally inane, juse so 'the other side' can point to it and say how dumb we all are.

Hoping more troops die, would be an example

26. Get a load of this scary comment:
To: sandbar
Jesus would not have beat someone to braindamage I don't care how much he disagreed with them
Really? I always wondered about that.

28. What a bunch of clueless asshats...get a load of this Freeperland quote:
"...beating someone with a tire iron is just wrong no matter what, and I fail to see what their lifestyle has to do with this at all."

UH, HELLO...they were beaten within inches of their lives BECAUSE they are gay, Einstein.
