I’m watching with great interest at the meltdown here — both financial, I suspect, and the membership.

I understand the infighting during a nomination process...and starting so early on...this was bound to happen.

What I fail to see is that some respected Freepers (in my book anyway) don't seem to grasp the ramifications of losing all three branches of government.

Especially when the CIC may be Hillary Clinton...something NOBODY in here should ever want to see.

We either believe fighting the WOT is prudent...or we adopt Bill Clinton's theory that, "We can always kill them tomorrow".

I don’t get what they don’t get, but given their posts, I’m happy to report that we aren’t on the same wavelength as a lot of those posters, DCPatriot.

Did you read that the Democrats want to stop using the phrase War on Terror and purge it from government literature? It’s on Drudge right now.

Oops - I read Drudge. Am I going to get banned? LOL

DC, quite frankly, a lot will happen between now and the GOP convention, so the hand-wringing is a bit premature.

Until then, this is full-contact politics like we last saw on FR in 1999. I sincerely doubt the various GOP candidates' staffers are gonna comply with Marquis de Queensbury rules if a juicy video clip drilling an opponent falls on their lap. Their only quandry will be whether to make a TV commercial from it or put it on YouTube.

Oh, I meant to remind you, given that this forum largely chose Alan Keyes as their presidential candidate in 2000, I’m not terribly concerned that this place represents the real world. Far from it. And lately that’s something to be thankful for.
