An actual rep of freerepublic is on WPR bashing Cindy Sheehan and telling lies about the "success" in Iraq. Call in and slam this SOB.

5. "we're a country that liberates people". |
|
Would that it were as simple as that. I'd be so proud if that were the simple truth.
History also tells us that we're a country that overthrows countries' governments to make banana companies happy.

6. Now he's mischaracterizing her original meeting with the chimp |
|
and then goes on to say she's expecting too much. The chimp's people met with her - just who does she think she is to demand to speak to the president.

8. What's wrong with WPR? |
|
It's beyond reason that they offer freeper Kristinn Taylor as the "other side" to an interview with Cindy Sheehan.
WPR has been doing this for years. Guest A is "other sided" with a right-wing extremist. In this way, WPR has been in the business of mainstreaming extremism. WPR doesn't guest equivalent left-wing extremists (if they could find any). Instead, they pair mainstream guests with right-wing extremists.
They had on wacko Horror-witz to defend Rove about the Plame scandal. All Horror-witz did was slander Wilson, "liberals" and Democrats.
Maybe there are NO reasonable righties left?

12. Not to play devil's advocate here - because I agree with you |
|
WPR has been mainstreaming extremism for a long time and that is why I don't contribute to them any longer.
But I could see in their cockeyed logic the thought that perhaps using extremists might discredit the opposition when their programming manager so choose. But, then again, maybe this is merely indicative of the quality of the guests they can attract to get on air and talk about these things. There may be no logic in it at all.

9. Freeper: 9/11 commission covered up early knowledge of Atta |
|
to protect the Clinton Administration.
Jesus, this guy is short a few bricks if he thinks an "non-partisan" commission is covering for the Clenis.
