Guiliani Bashing
May 02, 2007 | Ben Mugged

Posted on 05/02/2007 6:47:34 PM PDT by Ben Mugged

Why is the forum endorsing a specific point of view for a Republican candidate for President by placing a link to anti-Guiliani articles on the header?

Giuliani Truth File - In his own words and deeds.

There are folks on the forum with both points of view and one should not be supported over the other.

Many Rudy backers have lied by saying that he is a conservative.

Would you want liars posting here about how Hillary is a conservative?

Liars were called out.

Simple.

Statement by the founder of Free Republic
Free Republic ^ | Jim Robinson

Posted on 03/22/2004 6:22:17 PM PST by Jim Robinson

I posted the following statement to our front page in response to the criticism I’m receiving lately as to not being fair and balanced and perceived mistreatment of trolls and assorted malcontents. Got news for all, I’m NOT fair and balanced. I’m biased toward God, country, family, liberty and freedom and against liberalism, socialism, anarchism, wackoism, global balonyism and any other form of tyranny. Hope this helps.

Statement by the founder of Free Republic:

In our continuing fight for freedom, for America and our constitution and against totalitarianism, socialism, tyranny, terrorism, etc., Free Republic stands firmly on the side of right, i.e., the conservative side. Believing that the best defense is a strong offense, we (myself and those whom I’m trying to attract to FR) support the strategy of taking the fight to the enemy as opposed to allowing the enemy the luxury of conducting their attacks on us at home on their terms and on their schedule.

Therefore, we wholeheartedly support the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes on known terrorist states and organizations that are believed to present a clear threat to our freedom or national security. We support our military, our troops and our Commander-in-Chief and we oppose turning control of our government back over to the liberals and socialists who favor appeasement, weakness, and subserviency. We do not believe in surrendering to the terrorists as France, Germany, Russia and Spain have done and as Kerry, Kennedy, Clinton and the Democrats, et al, are proposing.

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Free Republic is private property. It is not a government project, nor is it funded by government or taxpayer money. We are not a publicly owned entity nor are we an IRS tax-free non-profit organization. We pay all applicable taxes on our income. We are not connected to or funded by any political party, news agency, or any other entity. We sell no merchandise, product or service, and we offer no subscriptions or paid memberships. We accept no paid advertising or promotions. We are funded solely by donations (non tax deductible gifts) from our readers and participants.

We aggressively defend our God-given and first amendment guaranteed rights to free speech, free press, free religion, and freedom of association, as well as our constitutional right to control the use and content of our own personal private property. Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of life.

Our God-given liberty and freedoms are not negotiable.

May God bless and protect our men and women in uniform fighting for our freedom and may God continue to bless America.

Jim Robinson

Because he’s for the anti-family homosexual agenda, pro-abortion, a gun grabber, a serial philanderer, wrong on almost every other social issue, a power grabber and showboat as DA. Other than that, you mean?

I noticed that even though my question and point is directed towards the FR policy, the flamers seem to think I need to be convinced Guiliani is not a real conservative.

Because Guliani is not a conservative; he’s a Trojan horse.

He's not a real conservative. Look at his record. Whether or not he's conservative isn't even debatable.

Reminds me of a time that Ghouliani's biggest supporter posted a pro-rootie-abortionist thread here on FR and then complained that people posted negative comments.

If you want to post a suck-up piece and not get any feedback, start your own blog.

You are making this about Guiliani. My post was about policy.

You know what you are doing. I'm so sorry, Ben.

Like I said, he's not worth it.

What do you mean by “which subject”? There are already multiple issues and subjects at play here: abortion, guns, alternative lifestyles, etc. Rudy is dead wrong, i.e., too liberal, on pretty much anything and everything.

You are making this about Guiliani.

Then why did you choose the thread title of "Guiliani Bashing"?

My issue is questioning the policy not a discussion of the qualities (pro or con) of Rudy Guiliani.

I am going to give up since I am not getting that discussion.

Dead babies are not a "view." They are dead babies.

My point is there are no other forum links to any other subject (such as Klinton, Reid) implying a forum sponsored position.
