FR revoked my posting privileges for pointing out the truth
After years of trolling under two different identities, it appears my trolling (posting) privileges at FR were finally revoked when, as the teabag reports started coming in, I asked how many incidents of liberal "infiltrators" causing violence in an effort to blame it on conservatives had happened. The answer is, of course, zero, but Freepers had predicted this would be common at every teabagging with the MSM cooperating to blow it up. Didn't happen.

Funny thing is, I fully and absolutely support the right of these folks to hold their "tea parties" and to raise all kinds of hell about taxes or whatever. That's how it should be in the the U.S. But they sure hate it when you point out just how incredibly paranoid they are.

Oh well, I'll return there eventually. And yes, Freeper trolls or lurkers, liberals do understand how to do it so that you're not quickly tagged as a retread.

1. I monitored FR every day for six years...
...on behalf of various entities. And I posted there off and on, simply pointing out facts and truth. I was banned several times for posting the truth. The myths and the propaganda are the only thing holding them together.

2. That must be like getting thrown out of a sewage treatment plant.
No big loss.

7. Hey, I'm not complaining,
just thought it was funny the final straw was that particular comment (which they never even allowed to be posted).

Of course, when I recently disagreed with a DU poster about Hugo Chavez I was immediately called a sock puppet here.

6. Post ridiculously.
you fit right in. I don't know how many times I've "seconded" somebody's ass-stupid posting in a way that any self-respecting DUer would instantly understand (and hopefully chuckle) was satirical, only to have it followed up with further muddying of them shallow waters.

10. I got ill many times, but...
I also got away with psoting something closer to the truth many times. It was worth it.
