Is Free Republic really a free and conservative website? I think not. Yesterday I was summarily kicked off the website with no reason whatsoever.
I believe there are some FR adherents who are sick and tired of the gestapo clique that evilly and anonymously controls and attacks anyone that does not post what they wish to see. Many are afraid to post as the fear is that they will be kicked out, or treated like HS sophomores and given time outs until they come to their senses. Moderators exercise their prejudices and engage in abusive and hateful behavior.
Draining the swamp should include draining the Free Republic Website.
Jim Robinson, owner of freerepublic.com, uses Google Analytics, a VERY expensive piece of software that tracks users between sites. So, if you go to Amazon.com, Jim knows you go there. It is how he knows when people go to anti-freeper sites. He gathers all kinds of information about your Internet travels,
Given this, the indications are that FR is forever vigilant and forever watchful and is an organization that delights in kicking those who won't adhere off their website.
