I am convinced that 75% of FR regulars are ABOs,
***true inundation by CINOs, as I’ve been saying for a few years.

I would like to see an idealogy litmus matrix here on Free Republic, but when I proposed it to Jimrob, he called me a newbie.

To: babygene I don’t think he’s all that interested.
To: MHGinTN It doesn’t matter what a FReeper thinks. It’s just a list that they tell us what they think. That way we can tell who we’re dealing with.

To: Jim Robinson Hah hah, that’s great. I signed up 2 months after you and I’m a newbie. Back then no one even said, “Welcome to FR”. But yeah, I do think that there are tons of RINOs. To be more accurate, the term would be CINOs.
I’ve been pushing for an idealogical litmus matrix here on FR, not to get rid of RINOs but to expose them.
THE GOP DOESN’T WANT US- SO WHAT’S NEXT?

***It simply takes too long. Look at this thread alone. I see evidence of RINOism in some of the FReepers on this thread. It takes 700 posts to drill down. We need the matrix posted and available so that we don’t have to drill down on every FReeping thread. They’re wasting our time. Deliberately.
Agreed to a large degree. Perhaps a way to rate members by other members???

I don’t agree with the “old guard” that can pretty much say what they want and get away with it. However, this is Jim’s website, not mine. Plus, I don’t contribute that much to maintain it. So, once again, I don’t see that I can complain. I also agree that the site is overrun with CINOs.
I agree with you that many of the original FReepers were probably more GOP loyalists than true conservatives (meaning to hold to all three legs of conservatism - SOCONism, NATDEFism, and Fiscalism). Many were of a very libertarian bent or just fiscally conservative. However, you can’t really blame Jim for being loyal to those he has traveled a long time with.
Hang in there. Keep records of those that rabidly promote an ABO agenda. You will note, should they get Romney elected, they will be the ones to scream the loudest when he screws up. So, watch and wait. It will be interesting.

I just checked you about page. You have been here since 1998! I’m surprized Jim would call you a Newbie. I’ve only been here since 2003 (I lurked for a time before). So, I’m a “Newbie” in the eyes of the Old Guard.
Here’s our first step in identifying real conservatives. If they agree with this, and if their political actions consistently line up with it, they’re really good prospects.

It’s only a first step though. We’re never going to get anywhere until we absolutely require accountability for ALL leaders.
