Awesome. You're moving forward too.

I'm not sure what makes me happier, Amanda's success or the fact that the Cons on your side of the line are having a cow over it.

laugh

Of course, they are debating the issue on their boards, heck I bet it's the Issue of the Week with them... lemme see... yup:

They're so predictable, bless their hearts! laugh

You have to delete the space between Free and Republic.

I wouldn't want for them to detect this place, and a direct link could do that.

PS: If you read the comments to TS-related stories there, you'll notice that they have a few transwomen around. Their consensus is that any TS woman who is "out" is not a woman but a TS, hence a "he."

I'd argue that most of the super-right-wing women on Free Republic and other forums are TS, at least from the comments I read.

I must say their comments are some of the most enraging excuses for "opinions" I've ever seen. Not sure, but it might be worth checking into as for whether or not those comments qualify them as a hate group.

Of course they are a hate group.

But take heart, they hate a lot of people.

Trans are one of their minor preoccupations. And, as I said, some of those comments are obviously from TS women as well (I know for a fact that several TS women post there, in fact I came to know of the existence of that site through a TS woman here).

In fact, some of the most hateful comments I've read on YouTube toward TS folks come from other TS folks. So I take it with a grain of salt: it may be just people trying to rescue some self-esteem through trying to hurt others.

I found them dull, boorish and entirely unoriginal.
The only thing enraging I found was their sublime lack of intelligence. I'm always stunned when people can barely type a legible, coherent sentence, yet they seem to be able to operate a computer competently enough to get onto the internet.
Perhaps their caregiver did those parts for them?

Pres. Obama seams to be using his “Freedom of speech and self-expression”.

Well those knuckledraggers like the Free Bigot are unfortunately always going to be around.
