Except for his unfortunate go along to get along support of TARP, bailouts, stimulus spending and the increased credit limit, etc, Ryan is a pretty good choice. Probably the best choice of the RINOS that were on Romney's short list. I support Ryan for the vice presidency. Wish he were at the top of the ticket, though.
But I still cannot and will not support the grand father of ObamaCare. Romney still loves and brags about his bastard brainchild, RomneyCare, even today when he knows what an anti-liberty socialist POS it is.
And the fact that he advocated that abortion should be safe and legal in America for over three decades of his adult lifetime and even advocated that Roe v Wade should be supported and sustained as settled law precludes any consideration whatsoever by this pro-life Christian for Myth Romney for the presidency.
And the fact that he boasted that he would be better for "gay rights" than Ted Kennedy, and proved it just increases my resistance.
That, and his penchant for gun control, his continuing support for global warming, gays in the scouts, gays in the military, and his record of appointing liberal judges makes it all but impossible for me to support him.
Lastly, we're having a bit of changeover on our moderator staff. At least two moderators resigned this afternoon after I flatly refused to rein in a so-called anti-Mormon "bigot" on FR. Well, if being in opposition to false prophets and false prophecy makes a Christian believer a bigot, then I guess I'm a bigot. I've posted before that I flat do not believe that the Book of Mormon is the true word of God. Nor do I believe that Joseph Smith was a prophet of God. The Christian bible warns us to be weary of false prophets and that I am. Romney being the presumptive Republican nominee does not change that fact.
I hardly noticed, being called “young”, kind of went to my head for a minute.
I choose not and will not. And that doesn’t take away from the FACT, that dozens HAVE LEFT, in just the past few days.
The site doesnt bother me at all Kevmo. Its the bigotry and intolerance that I cannot handle
***You dodged the question — JimRob is the owner of this site and he is exhibiting the exact “bigotry and intolerance” that you cannot handle.
I wouldn’t go to a website started by Jeremiah Wright hoping to correct the “bigotry and intolerance” of the site participants because it goes to the very top. It would beg the question of why I was there in the first place, other than to troll. Why are YOU here in the first place?
bkmk
You're accusing others of "name calling" answer my question, who called who a "young punk?
I see hammers, sickles, knives, and saws.
***I see written words. Maybe you need to step back a bit and evaluate what’s intruding on your vision.
Yes sir. Perhaps I will find The Way so as not to be misguided. Perhaps you shall also, just not on your current path.
Please notice, though, that you are (unintentionally?) offending Christian posters on Free Republic and that what you post here is making less and less common sense.
But If you are wanting to offend Christians (for the fun of it?), then I will remember your advanced age and overlook your bad and disrespectful behavior.
I think you need a mirror and pray that the Holy Spirit remove the scales from your eyes.
dozens HAVE LEFT, in just the past few days.

Oh I shouldnt worry Nic...
They’ll be back...
Willard is paying them to turn up at his solo rallies...
Actually, I heard there were over 10,000 who showed up yesterday in Michigan to hear Romney/Ryan. And last count, Obama couldn’t halfway fill up a stadium (I believe it was), at his fund raiser.
Been out of town with no internet. Soooo glad to see nothing has changed here. Thank you Jim, you have this Households agreement.
I’m not bound to answer something simply because you asked it. This isn’t a fascistic state yet and who the hell do you think you are anyway?
I am a supporter of conservative ideals and principles. Always have been.
Conservative does NOT equal Anti-Mormon any more than it equals Anti-Jew.
You’ve never been the target of intolerance for what you believe. That’s obvious. I have.
And when I see it, I will stand against it. It is ignorant and has no place in a truly free republic.
Again, we are all here at the pleasure of the owner and even if I am removed, I will continue to stand against it- while simultaneously respecting the rights for bigots to speak their minds.
What is so confusing that you people cannot understand that concept? I could understand confusion about freedom of expression in 1980’s Poland- but I don’t believe that’s where we are!
And who died and made YOU the one to question why anyone is here?
Bunch of Sadducees.
And yet, just a few months later, Christ/HolySpirit condemned Ananias & Saphira to death for lying to the Holy Spirit. There were no knives, hammers, nor sickles. The 2 people just keeled over right where they stood. Christ takes it seriously when people lie to the Church for nefarious gain. The same Christ Who sent the adulturous woman on her way.
What you “see” is people defending their faith. Your faith. They aren’t dragging anyone to the square, like the pharisees dragged that woman. The heretics are teaching openly in the square. The new testament shows Christ dealing harshly with such heresies.
Yes, I quoted Mr. Robinson's words. Is he a bigot, like Colofornian, Elsie and me or not, cowardly old coot?
Jim - We'll see if my other post to you was correct or not (That people fear to call you what they call the rest of us.).
Well where would you go ???
To a rally where they only pay you $10 and a lousy stale box lunch or to a rally where you can get $100 and pizza ???
Ya notice no chikin at either...
As Rabbi Heschel so beautifully wrote: “When I was younger, I admired clever people. Now that I am old, I admire kind people”.
As I find you neither clever or kind, it’s no surprise I never admired you and likely never will.
Now piss off and quit trying to demand I engage you. You’re repulsive.
Oh, no...
What is this world coming to...when you get a negative comment on Twitter?
Why 'back in the 'day, we NEVER saw negative comments on Twitter!
/Sarc aside...What is this conservative world coming to when you have FREEPERs "amening" the Daily Kuss??? And FREEPERs treating a Twitter anecdote out in Fringeland as worth a good ole college fraternity try to cyberbully a fellow FREEPER?
Perhaps SouthTexas and MJJ could get a "diversity" YouTube-based choir together -- ya know, consisting of their sphere of influence, the Daily Kuss folks, and then Mormons...
I've got a name already picked out:
The Mormon Tubercular Choir...
Too bad Mojitos only have about 10% alcohol...The Mormon Tubercular Choir could use something stronger, per Joseph Smith: (Some people might think I'm making up the following Lds "scriptural" verse...but I'm not): ... It comes from their highly touted "Word of Wisdom" section in Doctrine & Covenants:
"...strong drinks are NOT for the belly, but for the washing of your bodies." (Lds "scripture" -- Doctrine & Covenants 89:7)
(So, Joe, if ya get anything stronger than Mojitos, be sure you use it for your bath, not your belly...and please advise any choir members accordingly (Well, they'll actually already be "in the know"...The original Joe -- Joe Smith -- was telling Mormons that for years to explain why he had strong booze in the house).
Youve never been the target of intolerance for what you believe. Thats obvious.
***Of course I have. You have no freeping idea. What an incredibly arrogant statement.
Conservative does NOT equal Anti-Mormon any more than it equals Anti-Jew.
***True enough. But what’s been going on here in this thread is no more anti-mormon than someone closing their door on some missionaries and asking them in the name of Christ not to preach that false gospel to their neighbors. Your PERCEPTION is so drama-queen tainted that all you can see is some form of bigotry that doesn’t exist.
Im not bound to answer something simply because you asked it... And who died and made YOU the one to question why anyone is here?
***I believe I made an implicit case showing that you’re a troll on this site. Anyone can ask these questions. Why is it you won’t answer them? Because you’re a troll, as delineated in my analogy.
I am a supporter of conservative ideals and principles.
***Then go and convert some 0bots into mittbots rather than sowing discord on a conservative website. Obama thanks you for your efforts at such discord.
