Free Republic is a Jew-owned forum on the internets that focuses on kosher neocon topics. The site is well-known for its open-minded and intelligent discussions. Neocons only; real conservatives and commies are not allowed.
History
Free Republic was first created in 1996 by a handicapped crypto-Jew named Jim Robinson (aka RimJob) from suburban California. Unlike most wheelchair-bound people who simply wallow in their own angst, Robinson instead directed his anger towards the government and began whining and bitching about the president and the White House. Because the president at the time happened to be Slicky Willy, many people mistook his site as an anti-Democratic, right-wing community. Actually, Robinson was just defending the Jewess Monica Lewinsky Clinton was banging.
Over the next several years, Free Republic grew tremendously in size and popularity among other assorted conservative whiny teenagers. In 2001, Free Republic's community size dramatically declined as a result of most of the members dying on 9/11 from being on planes hijacked by terrorists (or at least "almost hijacked" See Annie Jacobsen).
However, Free Republic has regrown to much of its original size, especially after it gained much attention for pwning Dan Rather and other members of the old media. In fact, it has even spawned conservative forums in other countries as well. For example, Free Dominion has been established as a community for all (10) of Canada's conservatives (all Libertarian, all Albertan).
The Jerome Corsi Debacle of 2004
During the 2004 Presidential Campaign, a conservative author named Jerome Corsi was caught making racist and homophobic comments on Free Republic under the username jrlc. Corsi was immediately forced to apologize. Free Republic insisted that the site has strict rules against racism and looked down upon the comments.
Freerepublic Raid of 2006
On October 28, 2006 a group of /b/tards with nothing better to do, decided to launch a raid on Free Republic. Unfortunately not everything went as planned, as a Freeper upon hearing about from YTMD warned the site before it happened. This however didn't stop the /b/trads from creating multiple threads on the website ranging from 9/11 denial, to references to other 4chan memes at the time. Upon noticing what was happening the Mods BALETED all the threads and a couple butthurt Freepers started to complain on 4chan despite it being a Failure.
Freeping
The entire community of Free Republic seems to revolve around an unhealthy obsession and fetish with the word "freep" (a combination of the words "free" and "creep"). Members of Free Republic are known as "Freepers". Events organized by the site are called "Freeps", and fundraisers are called "Freepathons". Additionally, any "Freeper" who does not contribute to fundraisers is automatically labeled a "Freeploader", as they are clearly dirty, liberal communists for not doing so. Apparently, they think that adding "freep" to every word is hilarious, even though the practice is extremely annoying and repetitively unfunny.
Maintenance of the Forums
Free Republic has strict rules about posting topics and comments that are strictly kosher. Anything that even slightly disagrees with the majority opinion is immediately labeled “BARF ALERT” and is promptly BALETED. Users who post many patriotic or communist comments are even “ZOT!ed” and banned by administrators.
Free Republic also has strict rules that prohibit racist comments but actually it is only forbidden to criticise niggers and Jews. Though this seems to be conveniently ignored whenever anti-Islam posts are made because the Israeli Jews hate Muslims. But this definitely DOES NOT constitute as hypocrisy because they are doing it for freedom and pro-democracy… What is it now? You don’t hate America do you?
