All good things must come to an end.
I wish all of you the best.
Remember, the national government has not one, but two warrants for its existence.
1) The Constitution 2) The Declaration of Independence
The Constitution's purpose is "to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity"
The Declaration states, "[men]are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness"
Are you safe? Are you happy? Even with the Constitution? A question everyone must answer.
God Bless Jim Robinson and the whole FR team..
You’ll be back in a week. 😏
Godspeed to you
Class of 99 here. I was still lurking when you joined.
I’ve posted a total of 66 threads and 19,963 replies.
I’ll never catch up.
Seriously, best wishes to you. The classiest opus I’ve read.
You will be missed. MWH
You will be missed. Make it a short sabbatical.
We are All demoralized...
All according to Plan.

God Bless and
God Help Us.

or
any discussion of politics is a fools errand and merely paints me as a target
we are living in dangerous times
I know we are all aging and move through chapters in our lives. However, we also need others in our lives to help, each step of the way.
We will miss you. I have enjoyed your comments.
Take care, FRiend.
Sadly it looks like we’re losing another good one, who put his conservative principles over blind partisanship.
Best wishes to you, I will certainly miss your detailed and logical retorts.
Go under The Mercy!
Hate to see you go. But if you must, you must. Be well.
Thanks for your time here. You always had pertinent points that were interesting to read and think about. Best of luck to you.
“. I simply do not think there will be a political solution, there was a long term coup, we lost our country, so any discussion of politics is a fools errand...”
I’m going back to Twitter, but I will be here occasionally, mostly to support the site financially because we need a backup to Corporate Social Media.
The basic issue is that there are many circles of Containment.
When Trump fails because of sabotage from the DC GOP, the next step will be a “New Party”.
They are doing that right now in the UK, and I can tell you from the Canadian experience - it doesn’t work. Very quickly the “new” Party starts behaving exactly like the old party it replaced.
Well this stinks!
Hope you’ll take some time and return for friendship
Is there any specific reason you care to share? I know there mightd be many personal or family matters and you are not to share
You know you’re always welcome to reconnect!
Best of luck to you and yours and God Speed!
I’m pretty sure you’re not leaving the “team”.
” We will meet again .........

ditto
Did I miss something?... Why are you walking off into the sunset?
Great Opus. Truly sorry to see you go.
I eagerly await the intervention. 😏
Ditto except for the word "lost." Surrendered, or maybe forfeited.
Mr. Noble, thank you for leading the way for so many of us who came after you. Whatever the future has in store for either of us I promise you a place in my prayers.
FRegards and with utmost respect,
Megan
