Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?
vanity | April 21, 2007 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 04/21/2007 6:42:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

We've got some real challenges facing us. FR was established to fight against government corruption, overstepping, and abuse and to fight for a return to the limited constitutional government as envisioned and set forth by our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and other founding documents.

One of the biggest cases of government corruption, overstepping and abuse that I know of is its disgraceful headlong slide into a socialist hell. Our founders never intended for abortion to be the law of the land. And they never intended the Supreme Court to be a legislative body. They never intended God or religion to be written out of public life. They never intended government to be used to deny God's existence or for government to be used to force sexual perversions onto our society or into our children's education curriculum. They never intend for government to disarm the people. They never intended for government to set up sanctuary cities for illegals. They never intended government to “rule” over the people and or to take their earnings or private property or to deprive them of their constitutional rights to free speech, free religion, private property, due process, etc. They never intended government to seize the private property of private citizens through draconian asset forfeiture laws or laws allowing government to take private property from lawful owners to give to developers. Or to seize wealth and redistribute it to others. Or to provide government forced health insurance or government forced retirement systems.

All of the above are examples of ever expanding socialism and tyranny brought to us by liberals/liberalism.

FR fights against the liberals/Democrats in all of these areas and always will. Now if liberalism infiltrates into the Republican party and Republicans start promoting all this socialist garbage, do you think that I or FR will suddenly stop fighting against it? Do you think I'm going to bow down and accept abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, global warming, illegal alien lawbreakers, gun control, asset forfeiture, socialism, tyranny, totalitarianism, etc, etc, etc, just so some fancy New York liberal lawyer can become president from the Republican party?

Do you really expect me to do that?

And now, we’re being kicked out.

We're both still here, dear! ;^)

There was a mass Freepacide though, and from what I saw it was, from what I saw, voluntary for the most part.

Freepers throwing themselves under the bus on purpose.

Weird.

Once I used to play an online game, which was basically controlled by people who like to gang up on others. They really didn’t care about the spirit of the game or the rules for that matter. Their joy was in the stalk and tackling. Something about the thread here this afternoon reminds me of that game.

Oh how wrong you are. I expect an apology, and my donations to this site are absolutely none of your business.

There’s a lot more behind the scenes in the last several months then the housecleaning on this thread.

Since your sign up date is 4/1/07 - it begs the question.

Who were you before?

Well good. I hope you can support Jim in the manner to which he’s become accustom due to the generosity of all us “liberals” over the years. How dare you.

Dang, did it get quiet in here or what?

Strong convictions and aptitude I tell ya.

Btw, loved your Venn Diagram earlier today - always loved logic. I’ve seen alot of fallacies around here, guess I need to review them so I can actually name them. I did notice somebody using reductio absurdum as part of a framed argument - which was interesting.

You joined three weeks ago and think you have a handle on what has been going on?

You’ve got a male that posts pictures for no conservative discussion type of reason. And then another female poster gets nasty admin notes saying “this is not a sex chat site” because other posters are inappropriate on a thread she starts.

I haven't got a clue what you are talking about.

Why are the admins anonymous? Why shouldn’t there be some accountability?

As far as I know, EVERY person banned on this thread has been banned by Jim Robinson, that is certainly not anonymous.

The rest of your post makes you sound like a troll from some anti-FReeper site trying to get ammunition to smear Jim and FR.

You’re not being “kicked” out. Your’re opusing out or going down in a blaze of glory. Self immolating. Suiciding by mod. Martyrfing yourselves by flame and profanity. Antifreeping out. Or just plain lying, attacking, stalking, insulting, smearing, or unabashedly promoting liberalism and trolling out.

You (the collective you) have suddenly decided to betray all that FR stands for, all that the conservative movement stands for, all that the GOP stands for, all that Presidents Reagan and Bush stood or stands for, all that our American founders stood for.

Read and understand the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the history of our founding, the GOP party platform and FR’s statement of purpose.

You and some of your friends are mad as hell that I refuse to follow you and your liberal activist off the cliff to socialism and even madder that I’m taking a principled and very public stand against him.

Now you can opus again if you wish, but you are a supreme example of what’s wrong with your side and I intend to keep you around as an example. Just keep on spouting your support for the idea that the GOP should remove the pro life, pro marriage planks from the GOP platform and take a sudden move to the left to appease the liberals and that that is your primary reason to support Giuliani. The truth and admission of his socialistic ways and attraction to liberalism is something to behold.

After all, we conservatives have held our boots on the neck of the GOP for far too long and should never allow pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun issues to be primary issues of the GOP! The Republican party should govern like liberals!

Wow-what if he has his OWN opinions, and is expressing them?

Wow, so does JR. Imagine that

If you support abortion, gay rights, gun control, etc, you’re the sellout not me.

” If you saw the last Freepathon, you couldn’t help but notice how slowly it went.”

If you’re so concerned about how slowly the freepathon went, why don't you make a generous donation today to the “Bug Zapper” thread. And while you’re at it...keep walking into the liiiiiiiiiiiight.....[Twilight Zone music in background]

I hate to see most of them go but if they must ..... The fund-raising is just a way of “reassuring” them that FR will be financially ok,if they do though.
