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.
Yes, and I should have found another way to post what I wanted to say. It was a mistake and accomplished the very thing I’m wanting to avoid: confusion among FReepers due to convoluted and/or unclear postings.
Here is a picture of a sly goat.
It's better than a silly and tawdry flapjack wearing bunny!
Because, what I see, is not Christ-like.
*** Was JESUS Christ-like when He called them Vipers, and Sons of the Devil?
It’s okay, you can continue to duck this question because the answer is obvious.
Who said COLORIZATION??
Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."
Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.
Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them; they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.
2 Peter 2:13b Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
Ezekiel 16:49-50
49. "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.
50. They were haughty and did detestable things before me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.
1. But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves.
2. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute.
3. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
4. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell, putting them into gloomy dungeons to be held for judgment;
5. if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and seven others;
6. if he condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly;
7. and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men
8. (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)--
9. if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
10. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings;
11. yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.
12. But these men blaspheme in matters they do not understand. They are like brute beasts, creatures of instinct, born only to be caught and destroyed, and like beasts they too will perish.
13. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done. Their idea of pleasure is to carouse in broad daylight. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their pleasures while they feast with you.
But there IS hope!!!
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9. Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived:
Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders
10. nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
If you could NOT change, you would be in most pitiful shape...
AMEN!!
Sorry you think this is a "hate site", maybe you should get with J.R. and together the two of you could clean it up or alternately start your own site and keep the riff-raff out yourself.
I know, I know, I'd be the first to get booted from your site.
That is possible. But even if Romney loses, I doubt you will get the credit unless you can show the how particular states and demographics brought him down, and not just the usual fake votes in Philly.
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he’d punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin that dam
Cause he was a sly goat, a very sly goat,
He had eyes on the apple tree, in the yard hope.
Let's not leave out our old pals Saundra and OldMountainMan.
Who wants credit?
"There is no limit to what a man can do
or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit".-- Ronald Reagan
You guys have proven Bill O’Reilly correct when he called this a hate site.
***That’s a pretty definitive opus statement. If you continue to post on what you’ve called a hate site, that makes you a self-described member of a hate site.
As an opus, I give it a 3.5. It’s relatively unique, a bit crunchy, and sets up its own followthrough/followup.
“You on the other hand require some magical 1000/1000 holier than thou type who did not run this election cycle and would never meet some stupid standard that you created that even Ronald Reagan would not meet today.”
I’m not asking for 1000/1000.
What I’m asking for is a guy who ISN’T anti-gun, pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, pro-tax increase, pro-govt-run-healthcare LIBERAL.
I think those are reasonable requests for a conservative to make. I don’t give a DAMN how bad the democrat is. The democrat will ALWAYS be worse. It’s time to have some standards, Glock.
Elsie has also been seen running, while holding a pair of scissors!
that’s pretty disgusting, bleh
“Correct - i would vote for Joran Vandersloot or Charles Manson if it meant getting rid of obama from the WH.”
Oh great... you’d rather vote for two serial killers. Top notch!
You’ve zotted yourself of credibility.
How far some have fallen. From Freeper of the Year to being ridiculed by the new leadership cabal.
Headstone of Russell J. Larsen in the Logan City Cemetery, Logan, Utah.
I wonder if he died knowing he won the ‘Coolest Headstone’ contest?
His five rules for a happy life are below.
FIVE RULES FOR MEN TO FOLLOW FOR A HAPPY LIFE:
1. It’s important to have a woman who helps at home, cooks from time to time, cleans up, and has a job.
2. It’s important to have a woman who can make you laugh.
3. It’s important to have a woman who you can trust, and doesn’t lie to you.
4. It’s important to have a woman who is good in bed, and likes to be with you.
5. It’s very, very important that these four women do not know each other or you could end up dead like me.
Obvious to you; perhaps. Ditching Cheney is not in the character of GW; and it would be just another 'nail' to hammer into him by the Left; and many Repubs; for that matter.
Hunter's name was out there; in the Republican 'field' during Primary season; it did not happen.
McCain, was the beneficiary of 'Party Loyalty'; and we were the losers, for their ignorance.
