Admit it: You can't help but crap a smile when you see these gaffes from the Freak Rethuglic crowd. I'll concede they're not as colorful as they once were, but they're still a prolific bunch of spoiled loonies, and they provide no shortage of fodder.
What's freedom? Is it freedom of speech? Freedom from slavery? Freedom of assembly? To regulars on Free Republic, it's none of things. To them, freedom means outlawing labor unions. Tonight I found this quote from a member of the Whine Time Players who inhabit the site:
"America will never be a truly free capitalist country until labor unious [sic] are made illegal."
Seriously, they said that. They actually said being free means taking away the freedom to form a union. Is this anything like the "war is peace" mantra in '1984'?
Free Republic isn't exactly the working-class website its supporters make it out as, is it? Perhaps most importantly, this is another indication of Freepers' phony populism that actually represents the privileged executive class that views us working-class people as lowly hordes that have to be violently fended off.
I guess they'd love it in Saudi Arabia where unions are illegal. Over there, they have a government that's supported the Bushes for years, so the Freepers would be on cloud nine there!
