"I said that!"

Yeah! Bravo for saying it. That one line sums up the motivations behind what's going on perfectly.

"Most notably, Jeb is working to undermine Katherine Harris's bid for U.S. Senate. That is absolutely astounding. If Ms. Harris had not done her job as well and courageously as she did in November 2000, George W. Bush would NEVER have become president. He owes his presidency to that one woman. And what does his brother and the RINO machine do? Stab her in the back."

It has something to do with the trend of treating people like we treat products/commodities. Used to be, we had products that had a reasonable service life and durability. Now we have products you use a few times then discard. Same with people now - use 'em up quickly, then throw 'em away. Globalist economy psychology in action.

When I was canvassing door to door in summer 2004, for the Bush/Cheney campaign, I came across some registered Republicans already "disaffected" from/by the Bush presidency.

In fact, I won't even repeat the disaffected comments of one of them!

"In my home, there are a number of expressions I do not allow. If you use them, I will ask you not to do so. If you use them again, I will ask you to leave."

"Free Republic is a private business."

Yep. Meaning that certain terms can be disallowed by the management. However, note that the terms "traitor" and "treason" are still to be found on FR, in posts that haven't been deleted. Same for "bushbot".

Hint: You don't get to tell people to leave someone else's home.

You're correct. It's a public forum. I voiced my dislike for the use of "traitor" when applied to our President. Posts containing those references remain in the thread. It's Jim Robinson's site. He gets to make the decision, and I abide by his decision. That does not mean that I will not object to such in the future.

You see, I know who owns this site, and it's not me. I say my piece, but Jim Robinson makes the decisions. That's how it works.

For once, gridlock in congress is a plus.

I think what is more hurtful are the comments that I am hearing in reference to our beloved President and family. We can disagree with his policies, but he is still our President and deserves our respect and loyalty.
