He’s the only one that can beat Hillary

..that little mantra was wearing thin fast

But what was a real indicator of bad weather ahead, was how they were packaging it together with attacking the Religious Right--true colors began to show...

..I finally discovered where the “parallel universe” is. I can't believe some of the names I see over there--and some are administrators!

Interesting times...

“We knew him as our Gov. for 8 years besides our Pres.
Most bashing him live in other states and in some cases wern’t around in the 60s when he was Gov. and how he cleaned up a huge mess and delt with anti war protesters.”

Last night on the History Channel they had a segment on “Hippies”.

Then Governor Reagan had quite some mention in the program.

One of the quotes of Reagan that I liked was when he was describing the hippies and war protesters...

“They dress like Tarzan, have hair like Jane, and smell like Cheetah”

“do you have a link for clown posse?”

Ronald McDonald mounted his trusty jackass and rode off into the sunset.

The site is gone and not missed by anyone with a functioning brain.

They likely went to Ivan’s Rooty-Rejects Room. ( eyes wide shut) Or something along those lines.

Rudybots are a pretty nasty lot. Once i argued with them about Giuliani defense of Clinton when he was under fire over the Wallace interview, they were quite angry and were unable to explain clearly why Giuliani came to the support of Clinton. All those parrots had to offer was that Giuliani is tough on terror and is only one capable of winning the election, these claims are untrue and rather not substantiated by arguments.

EXCELLENT ARTICLE! Everyone should read it.

From that article, Rudy envisions a Global economy as the road to peace..

"Americans hate war," he recently told the Churchill Club, a gathering of Silicon Valley executives. "We're at war because they want to come here and kill us, not because we want to go there and kill them. We want to do business with them. We would love to have them all wired and part of the Internet buying American products, and then we'll buy their products. And then we'll have the kind of issues we have with China and India, like we used to have with Japan. But those are good issues to have. That's America, that's what America is about."

In the end, he says, victory in the terror war may come down to commerce."Technology has transformed the world," he told the executives. "Part of the way we're ultimately going to win the war on terror is through that technology. We're going to win the war on terror because, yes, we have to be militarily strong, we have to consider defending ourselves, but ultimately we overcome terrorism when those parts of the world that haven't connected yet connect to the global economy."

Consider China, he said. "China has plugged in. It's still a dictatorship, and they have to overcome that. But they've plugged into the global economy. If you think of where the terrorists are coming from, those are places that haven't plugged in. Ultimately economic freedom pushes you to political freedom. . . .

We need to be strong, we need to be determined, but we also need to connect as many of these [Middle Eastern] countries as possible to doing business with us, to being connected to the Internet with us."

Kumbaya!

Zotted ones were largely pro-euthanasia or pretended to be.

I just want to put a little perspective on things. There's Free Republic and then there's the splinter sites, anti-freep sites, and the imitators. Let's compare:

Traffic Rank per Alexa.com:

Free Republic: 5,449
Lucianne.com: 46,978
Sweetness-light.com: 265,776
DarwinCentral.org: 4,013,112
WideAwakes.net: 4,432,408

Sucks to be them...

Me too. I’ve posted several pro-Rudy remarks and none have been purged.
This story is a crock of $hit.
I’m supporting all of the Republican candidates except John McCain and Ron Paul.

Actually, a lot of the names over at DarwinCentral look like the names of some of the losers that were on Clown Posse.

Giuliani is a “big-city liberal” and if the meme is dangerous then that is more reflective of his liberalism than any “current campaign

Was going to post the same...glad somebody noticed how dangerous we are! ...pathetic.

I miss Travis Mcgee....

FR has not been the same since he was shown the door...

A true American, a true Patriot, and a true defender of Western Civ.

Cheers.


I agree.....

>>>>>>I personally like the fact the Rudymites were shown the exit. That's just me however.

The majority of FReepers agree with you. This forum is not for debating liberalism of any kind. Never has been and never will be.

Rooty gets the same treatment all liberals get around Free Republic. FR remains a conservative website. We advance conservatism, promote conservative candidates and defend the Constitution. Period.

At least if there's a purge, let's make the subject interesting.

Narnia Vs The Lord of the Rings, Red vs White wine, Football vs Soccer, American vs British English, smokers vs Non-smokers.

Just in case one of these purges does take place, here is where my heart is

(Please Jim, don't disagree)

The Lord of the Rings

Red Wine

Soccer (oops)

British English (double oops)

Smokers (three strikes:-)?
