Having once lost my FR posting privileges for speaking out in support of Ron Paul, I caution members of this august forum against making the same mistake. Just because it's "Free Republic," I am pleased to have been taught, doesn't mean conservatives are free to say anything they want on the subject of freedom and our republic. There are limits, and rightfully so, especially for "PaulBots" and other idiot pro-life isolationist constitutionalist wacko trolls, the likes of which I once, admittedly, was. A good jolt from the Viking Kitties has taught me that freedom has its limits, and after all, the very success of our beloved GOP and its leaders is a result of measured compromise, calculated bipartisanship, common-sense moderation, and dare I say, submission.

You actually supported this isolationist, antisemitic nutjob? And you're bragging about it? Just wow.

You’ve got to think tactically.

First, when praising Ron Paul, always mention something about his policies you don’t like. For instance, I always mention that his policy of withdrawing our garrisons from Asia would invite Chinese adventurism. (Which I believe is the truth.) Along with that point, I can then safely mention any of the 85% of his policies I do support.

Second, never combine in the same post Ron Paul praise and criticism of whatever Republican is in fashion at the time. Keep the two separate, and the banhammer will flee you.

Think. Don’t just say things. Keep it brief. Use the rules of rhetoric.

I almost never agree with Ron Paul but this statement is not just spot on as to what occurred but also a sad foretelling of our future.

Good post.

Having once lost my FR posting privileges for speaking out... I am pleased to have been taught...

That is one of the saddest posts I have ever read here on FR.
