You are such an idiot.
Pure class all the way, Jim. So nice of you to say. /s
What is that kind of talk? Are you drunk?
Whoa, whoa no name calling!
You cannot be the Jim Robinson I came to respect all these years. Not possible.
Jim, you're better than this.
For the record, I asked you two very clear questions which you refuse to answer:
"Are you telling us that if a candidate who opposed abortion was nominated by Republicans, you would vote in opposition in the general election? Are you of the opinion that opposing abortion renders a candidate "unelectable"? (Hint: of the last four presidents elected, three opposed abortion)"
Such questions are hardly impenetrable. Please answer them.
The reason I asked them is equally simple. You employ tactics in support of Rudy Giuliani nearly identical to those FairOpinion employed in support of Arnold Schwarzenegger. You have seen where that leads, and to be banned here would harm your effectiveness in supporting Rudy far more than it would harm FreeRepublic, I promise you. Thus, you dance around my questions like a coward.
You see, this dichotomy, between moderate and conservative has existed since the day moderate Republicans betrayed the party nominee in 1964. Moderates have refused to support conservative candidates as "unelectable" ever since, demanding we support their policy preferences while they refuse to incorporate ours. Exposure of that failure to reciprocate threatens them, just as it does you simply because conservatives may respond by staying home if a moderate is nominated in response to like treatment. I promise you, if Rudy Giuliani is nominated on the false pretenses he portrays today, the MSM will so loudly blandish his history that, considering the history of the GOP betraying conservative candidates, there will be no chance he would ever be elected.
I don't want to see that event. Should you portray a conservative as "unelectable" I will demand the criteria by which you support that assertion. Opposition to abortion is clearly a distinction that matters to you.
Please answer the questions.
Take a hike. I’m not here to answer your questions.
