Free Republic's Jim Robinson Makes the Turn


punish RINOs in the House
I respect those who are still die-hard for beating Romney, but that is yesterday’s fight. The danger is not in seeming inconsistent–trust me; we left marks all over that Romney fellow, and he will not forget us. Maybe next time we will unseat him like we are about to do to Lugar, and a number of other RINOs. And this is the fight for today: punish RINOs in the House and especially Lugar in the Senate. Tomorrow’s fight is back to the White House to get Obama out of my chair.

their friends could use the help
Those who still toil in the fields of Newt are at great risk of becoming irrelevant, the one thing they must not become. They poke and stab at the bodies of friends and enemies alike from a long-finished battle, while their friends could use the help a valley away, where the fight is now.

to engage on the next fight, disengage from the previous
Jim at Free Republic did the right thing, and must pull his readership back together to allow Free Republic to become once more the hammer of the right. He could stand on the conservative Jihad, stabbing at thee from the heart of Hell etc etc, but the fact is, Freepers need to engage on the next fight, and in order to do that–they must disengage from the previous.

Optimistic Conservatives and TEAPARtiers should go to work, encourage the Mittbots,

I have no intent of encouraging the GOP to keep heading leftward. If we don't have the courage to stand up to our own version of the Chicago Machine, we're losing anyway.

Hi, Häagen-Dazs.

I see you have a blog. That’s just darling.
I’d suggest you post your content in full here on Free Republic.

I’ve seen ugly things happen to folks who pull that blog pimping scam.

Dark and scary things. Worse than peppermint ice cream.

Is there a link to the FR thread where Jim actually posted this?

Thank you in advance.

No, you/we didn’t get screwed because we voted for Sarah. We got screwed by the democrat cheating machine and the nitwits who would not vote for McCain thereby throwing a defacto vote to obama. For God’s sake! I didn’t want Mitt but the choice between him and obama is like the choice between a small bug bite on the ass and obama’s socialist dictatorship being shoved up our asses to the ruin of the country. If you don’t at least vote to remove obama then you are throwing a vote to him and throwing the Republic and the Constitution down the crapper. With Mitt the twit at least there is a chance to save the nation; with obama there is none.

“You didn’t excerpt this part:

Want to bet?”

What will you folks do if the Big Guy DOES “make the turn”?

Four more years of BO and we may not have a country.

Scare tactics. A battle is far more manageable with an opponent exposed on the field before us. I prefer that over a battle with an opponent hiding in my team's uniform at my back. There is no victory when liberal defeats liberal. There is only victory when conservative overcomes liberal. Rather than picking the lesser of two evils, I'm choosing Goode.

I don’t know where to start with how flawed that logic is. Every vote that does not go to Romney puts the real evil another vote in the lead. The only “good” vote that is put ahead is in your mind.

It IS ABO, your guys and mine did not get the nomination, get that into your hard heads!

Oh, yeah, and still prepare to impeach the President some time in late January.

Hate to burst any bubbles but the GOP is NOT going to put up any impeachment. They are the other corrupt faction.

Screw the mittbots, they’re democrats without the courage to admit it.

Call me anything you like.

I want Obama out of the White House and I don’t GAF who I have to vote for to do it.

I don’t like Romney, if he wins I will fight him as hard as I now fight Obama, but I will vote for him if that’s what it takes.

Clue ~ Obama didn't win because Conservatives and TEAPartiers didn't vote ~ (1) Because Conservatives voted, and (2) There was no TEAParty at the time.

Obama did a bit of cheating with students, but he got a larger turnout due mostly to free beer at the free concerts following the speeches, and McCain canceled or suspended his campaign at a critical moment.

He used the financial crisis as his excuse ~ frankly I think he had a stroke ~ not a big one but one enough to screw him up ~ so he used a financial crisis as cover for getting medical treatment.

He was never the same after that.

Just out of curiosity, do you guys bitch on other forums when someone posts a thread from FR?

Indeed, ABO. By the way Romney is almost there delegate-wise. Who voted for him? Republicans. Yes, in some states independents/ unenrolleds or even Democrats are allowed to vote in the Republican primary. People looked at all the candidates and ultimately, even if by a small margin, they chose him. A recent poll said 91 per cent of Republicans choose Romney. Or at least 91 per cent will not vote for Obama. Maybe they will vote third party or something.

4 more years of The One will kill this country. If you want a more conservative candidate next time, support them; otherwise perhaps the GOP is no longer conservative. Regardless, it comes down to Romney vs. Obama. Either someone who is at least half decent, or more Hope and Change.

That's why we really really really need to push the down ballot folks ~ then the GOP will be prepared.

I think impeachments work better if they are started as soon as possible ~ preferably before all the nominations are in.

“I anxiously await the impeachment, conviction, and then the punishment.”

Do you seriously believe that this Congress will Impeach Obama, let alone Try him & Convict him?

What would Obama do if Impeachment proceedings began? He knows he is on a roll. If he is reelected, nothing will restrain him (or the people who put him there).
