Funny thing over at FR -- Freepers looking like fools!

Edited on Sun Jan-02-05 10:33 PM by Gman
These idiots have a thread about Code Pink, Global Exchange and Families for Peace giving $600K in humanitarian aid to the Fallujah residents and how Medea Benjamin was guilty of treason and should be prosecuted. In post #12 they posted a picture of Medea Benjamin and arrogantly added the words "Used without permission". The posted comment said, "Here's our girl. She's a Wells College graduate." The picture was linked from the basetree.com website.

I sent an email to the contact at basetree pointing out to them that the pic was being used on FR and about the arrogant comment about "used without permission". I got an email back saying the problem had been taken care of and to check the FR thread again. What I found was absolutely hilarious. Basetree.com had swapped the pic of Medea Benjamin with one of Mopaul's frightening photoshops of Anthrax Coulter!

The post has been bumped to the top again at least 15 times since then and NO ONE has noticed it! All this was started around 2 p.m. today Central Time. What a bunch of idiots! We've been sitting back laughing our asses off at these fools all day! What a bunch of morans!

The full thread is at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1312014/posts?page=12#12

Hurry up and check it because as soon as one of the lurkers finds this thread it'll be gone!
