Peach keeps posting that every rudy supporter is being banned, that all the freepers are writing her afraid to say they support Rudy.
Only a couple of people have been banned, and they were banned for posting lies about other conservatives, and posting things so wrong that they themselves had their own comments pulled.
There is no purge, there is no reason for CIVILIZED people to be afraid to express their opinion. Jim opposes their candidate, but has not banned them simply for supporting their candidate.

Hey, maybe you should put up a version of FR funnies.
This thread should certaing provide plenty of material.
Respecting to your first comments: at worst Sadaam was "rumored" to have WMD's. Given what was known by almost every intelligence agency in the world, failing to act in an overt military sense was a non-issue.
Don't accuse me of separating anthing between anything. I'm stating a blatent fact about what is.
You said:
It’s not an ‘either’,’or’ situtation. It’s both, including ‘fiscal’. You cannot say that true ‘conservatism’ is one or the other.I understand the difference between practical and pragmatic.
Don't pigeon-hole me as being an advocate for any sort of ideology. Regardless of whatever political rhetoric is being spewed, I believe that there is a subliminal and tacit approval by Congress and the Senate concerning Executive policy.
There is at least an implicit consent respecting the operations in Iraq pertaining to WOT. We'll soon find out just how explicite the consent is concerning all that based on the fact that the military will need money real soon.
The last bill had two major aspects to it: lots and lots of pork, and a artificial deadline. Bush said that he'd reject any sort of deadline, does that mean he'd accept any number with respect to pork? Would it be acceptable to double the cost of the war if 1/2 of the cost was pork for those Democrat/Republican legislators that wouldn't vote otherwise $'s came into their district?
Frankly, I believe that all the nonsense about the pork will come down to whether or not any of it can be paid for on the U.S.A. credit card.
Name recognition polling aside, that assessment will change when more voters understand what Rudy is.
Oh, the irony.
He He, Right on Flashbunny.
Would you mind, since you are not a liar, pointing out the people on this thread who said they would vote for Hillary instead of Rudy?
Thanks.
“Chris Matthews said he would consider voting for him and I knew the fix was in.”
Expect establishment Republicans to give some type of courage award to Chrissy Matthews now - I mean the moderate Chrissy Matthews. lmao...I can’t wait for this Rudymania to crash and burn - the elite of the Party will leave him swiftly and in droves. Leaving the hardcore lib RINOS holding the bag. It’s coming folks.
Your claim does not contradict mine.
I do, however, get disappointed when so many conservatives get duped into supporting not-quite-as-liberal-as-the-other-guy.
I think it's more important to cast my vote for a conservative that be able to smile and slap everyone on the back when "Our Guy" wins the election. It's easy to say "Death before Slavery," but what does it mean if you vote for someone who will take more of your liberty away?
Hey, another pro-rudy poster who managed to “escape the purge”.
Must have been a real incompetent purge, with all these pro-rudy people still around.
In other words, the “purge” is the nonexistant figment of the imagination of the pro-rudy people.
You have to admit he was the ultimate troll.
That man was the reason God invented alcohol ..... what a lunatic. He was funny ... but only in tiny doses.
Maybe FR could let him back with the caveat that he can only post on a Sunday from 0900-1000? He can't be drunk ALL the time.
Did I say that people on THIS thread were threatening to vote for Hillary?
You’ve been on threads where it’s been threatened, I’m quite sure. Lots of us have seen it, commented on it, and some freepers have saved those posts. I’m not one of those freepers.
What memories of this RM2 HICOM operator you bring back . . .
Bingo.
Mischaracterized by the media. Here's something Alan Keyes has written about reparations:
"The truth of the Civil War is that the terrible price for American slavery has been paid, once for all," when Americans gave their lives on the battlefield to end slavery. "The price for the sin of slavery," Keyes wrote, "has already been paid, in blood."
I can't disagree with that.
Sure, he is, but Peach has said on this thread that he is stifling free speech by banning and purging all the pro-rudy posters.
He is doing no such thing. In his mind he’s been more than fair to those using his site to push a candidate he hates, so for those same people who are benefiting from his site to accuse him of doing what he probably WANTS to do but doesn’t is pretty hypocritical.
You mean, like you?
