So, you’re voting for a godless Marxist instead. Every vote counts, either for or against. ABO. Period.

***JimRob, such invective continues to fan flame wars and damage conservatism. I proposed earlier that you establish a line in the sand for the sake of peace on both sides. A freeper (from either side) who crosses the line should get a warning, then a timeout.

Nothing has changed about my principles, ethics, or my relationship with God but you sure couldn’t tell it from the way I’ve been treated here lately. Why?
***My guess is that JimRob doesn’t want to open another heart-wrenching bugzapper thread. So he allows the RINO squishes to bash conservatives.
If it were me, I’d post a boundary establishing thread that draws the line for both sides. If you have decided for yourself to vote for Romney, that’s your own choice that we disagree with. If you’ve decided to write in a conservative, that is also your own choice. Each Freeper makes their choice and the choice is respected
But if you try to separate conservatives from their conservative beliefs on this conservative website to get them to vote for a librul like Romney, you’re a librul and you’ve crossed the line. Similarly, if you call the Romney voters something like ‘squishes’ or ‘cowards’ or CINOs or ‘libruls’ then you have also crossed the line. Anyone who crosses the line gets one warning, then a timeout.
Seems like a simple way to keep the peace during such a troublesome time that the choice is 2 babykilling libtards.

I called directly to the top for this several months ago, as soon as it became clear that Romney was pulling away with the nomination.
I was told pointedly that there would be absolutely no room on FR for those who thought supporting the GOP nominee was best for America.
Then there was the so-called “truce” that was utterly ill-formed and incoherent and failed to address any of the real issues at hand.
Now here we are, doing what we’re doing.
Oh, well. At least we’re making the DUmmies, the commies, Team Obama, the rent-seekers, the moochers, and the jihadis happy.

Well, this is interesting. We’ve got a RINO squish agreeing with a hold-your-ground Conservative agreeing with eachother on how this situation should be handled on Free Republic.

There are three ways to vote in solid blue states like California:
1. Vote for Obama, the supposedly godless Marxist who is as in bed with Goldman Sachs as Bush was (so was Bush a godless Marxist too?)
2. Vote for Romney or the Constitution Party Candidate or the Libertarian Candidate or ... and basically throw away your vote.
3. Vote strategically for the Green Party. If they get 5% of the national popular vote they will be able to make a case for inclusion in future debates and can ask for government funding. This will turn them into a thorn in the side of the Democrats.
I am sick and tired of people who claim to be thoughtful conservatives who want those of us living in solid blue states to naively throw away our votes.
My vote is a powerful tool which I will use intelligently. I will not vote for Romney because that would be stupid and childish. Voting for the Green Party, however abhorrent that party is, is an intelligent and thoughtful attempt to create a party that can siphon off the loony left from the Democrat Party and give the Republicans a chance to maintain a majority as the demographics move against them.
