I am done. This site has broken me. I am as staunch a conservative as you will find. After returning from Iraq, injured and upset, I turned here and found a welcoming community that shared my thoughts. I am a proud Gadsden Flag waiving man of the Tea Party movement. But because I don't think Sarah Palin is as historically important as other GOP women in the past, I am now considered an idiot, a RINO, ass-kisser and whatever negative connotation you can throw my way. This site has changed so much since that dictator want to be became President it sickens me. It's lost its sense of community and has ran off many a good person. Heck even the Tea Party seems to be distorted here.
I’m not sure.
Could be. Or not. It’s still early, so we can only guess at this point.
I think she’s starting to stand up a bit though. Testing the waters.
Just a bit.
I think your reply need works. Have you really thought it through? I can’t agree with the premise of your statement to begin with. The question is WHY and HOW to stop arguing, not whether you shouldn’t be arguing. Get it straight. By the tone of your question: What were you in for?
Ha Ha!
what’s wrong with Christian vs Catholic threads? They’re often entertaining at least heh.
All joking aside, I get sucked into those all the time.
People should ask themselves what boar they want to be on. Not one person so far has stated what issue of conservatism they disagree with Palin on. Just that they don’t like her or whatever. It’s those people that need to either get on the conservative boat or get out of the way and stop interfering with conservatives.
If they have an issue with her position they should state it...not rehash lib BS. And the rest of us are under no obligation to allow them to spew crap that sabotages us all.

Yes, and as I have posted on many threads, Marxist Media and Marxist educational systems are destroying America.
The Communist know that those two keys are the most important in the conquest of the USA, and their goal to make it the USSA.
Just think what is making him Opus, Sarah Palin and the tea party, what a great conservative he must be.
Hey now, Alaska Wolf is a decent person with a great mind.
Excuse me while I slap myself.
That’s better, now I can get back to what I was saying.
You’re right about drawing the line, you can disagree with someone but still like them as a person or heck, even love them. We tend too often though to let emotion cloud our judgement on things and we feel all hurt personally when someone rains on our parade.
Luckily, for myself I lost all my feelings in a terrible military training accident.
Good post by the way heh.
He uses 5.56mm, but real men use 7.62 heh.
Thanks for your service. I do hope you’ll reconsider leaving. If not, I wish you well.
“Testing the waters.
You may be right. She certainly has aspirations. I don’t know how she is seen by the public outside this forum. Guess time will tell.
St. Sarah of Wasilla....brought to you by the same brain trust that thought Sharon Angle and Christine O’Donnell were the answer. Flame on.
To tell the truth I never feel the need to call anyone names. Not that I’m better than anyone else because I’m not but it accomplishes nothing and fuels anger.
For people to call each other out and indulge in personal attacks rather than intelligently debate the issue is damaging to the conservative cause, that’s not who we are.
Well she has been on Bing’s hot list for the entire afternoon, going as high as #2 that I saw (might have even gone to #1 though I was away for a while)
She’s still in the top 10 now.
Palin has a lot of public support. Far, far beyond FR, though her support is pretty strong here.
In my opinion Christine O’Donnell was a good person.
I would vote for her in a minute.
Just saying.
IT should be who we are. If we are too scared to call liberal behavior what it is and the people doing it liberals, PDSers or whatever, then how are we different from the average PC devotee?
Words have meanings and actions, consequences. This fear to call BS what it is because we do not wish to OFFEND id cowardly liberal-immitating crap.
You can see it from over there better than we can, but the disease affects us all, and it’s good to be aware of it in one’s own thoughts and judgments. The media and the educational system have done a job on us as well as on those “progressives”, let’s not kid ourselves.
Who are you calling out, another Freeper who doesn't agree with you? What are the guidelines that make the object of your vitriol deserving of those names, if they don't agree with you 100%, if they don't like the same candidates that you like?
Matthew 7:3 "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?
Ted Cruz: I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin
Jim DeMint: Sarah Palin I believe shes done more for the Republican Party than anyone since Ronald Reagan
FR can be extremely frustrating at times but does serve a useful purpose. The first rate news comes mostly without bias and is faster than any main stream news outlet.
I understand you’re frustration because I too don’t post as much anymore, but I still read.
Please don’t burn this bridge because you may need the contacts later.
We know how she is seen by the GOP base.
