The above is in response to the recent attacks on my character, my honesty and my devotion to principle. If anyone here really believes that I am dishonest, disloyal or unprincipled, then I wish you would resign from this website and leave us be.

I intend to use the Free Republic website to advance the causes of freedom and Liberty. I love my country dearly and do not wish to see it destroyed by any enemy, foreign or domestic, and this includes terrorists, socialists, communists, anarchists, nazis, liberals, democrats or anyone else.

The Democrat leadship are Marxists and our greatest domestic threat!

[MonroeDNA]

Here, here!!!

We are on the exact same page. Liberals, Socialists, Marxists, all control freaks, who can't stand individual liberty.

I abhore them, and will do whatever I can to defeat them.

Thank God for Bush.

While I agree with what you have said, I offer that there is more to the problem. The republican party is not without fault in what has developed - spending has increased and freedoms have decreased under their watch also.

Therefore, the most serious problem is the corruption of our whole political system - it has been corrupted by MONEY, the "mother's milk of politics". Special interest money has gotten so out of hand that it will take more than the meager legislative possibilities so far proposed.

It will take a major change in the dynamics of our election law to correct this problem. The best thing I have heard is the idea that no money can be contributed to a candidate by anyone who cannot vote for that candidate - and then put a reasonable limit on contributions (like a certain % of income). That eliminates contributions from organizations: unions, corporations, PACs, etc. It also eliminates much of the structure of corruption and it keeps the local elections local.

There would still be the problem of soft money and that would require some good regulation to keep it appropriate and under control but that could be done.

Thank you for Free Republic - you have done a great service.

[JHL]

I'm with you Jim. I applaud your stand and the service you've done in providing this website. I agree with you about the threat posed by the Dems, but I'm afraid the Republicans are only slowing the nation's demise, not actually reversing it. Yet, I'm no Libertarian either. You put your finger on it when you stated a need to for this country to return to the original intent of the Constitution. Amen to that.

Well I'm sure you see this thread ^ ) Who said the internet was not animated !

[NewLand]

Thanks Jim for giving us a place to hang our hat with fellow Conservatives in support of The Constitution.

LONG LIVE FREE REPUBLIC

[exDemMom]

Wow. Couldn't agree with you more. It was the Gore attempted coup that led me to join FR; I really want to think that sites like FR, and alternate information sources like talk radio, are having an effect. Since I work in the heart of enemy territory (UC Davis), however, it is sometimes hard to remain optimistic. But I try.

Keep up the good work.

[restornu]

I think your integrity Jim is alright in my book. I am just puzzled at time about some that get bounced.

I guess because if I try to post even neutral topic just because of who I am I become an open target!

So in order to keep peace I must not respond to those who stalk me!

The trouble with inquiring about these things is that there are some wolves(DU)in the mix so I would not take what some say seriously!

[Salvation]

BTTT! Way to go, JimRob!

Well isn't that something! It seems that my time away has left me out on a limb to some new, revolting developments. I don't care to know all of the details, but I'd sure like to wipe the cobwebs off of the old flame machine...
I will, however, continue to play well with the others.
G_d bless you and yours, as always

bttt - 1 - "I believe that as long as Bill and Hillary Clinton and their like minded socialist minions have any influence or power over the government or either of the two major political parties, our nation and all of our freedoms are in extreme danger. "
