ok, guess this is what is called a vanity. Not sure because this is my first post. So give me a break ok? WE are now down to 4 candidates. Here is how I see it. There will be no surprizes for anyone who has read my posts.
1. Ron Paul. A true fiscal conservative that I would vote for in a heart beat if he had a clue about our enemies and how much they hate us and want to destroy us and our way of life.
2. Mitt Romney. All he has to offer is that he really, really, really wants to be President. Well, good for him. The problem is when that is your sole motivatiion, you will do anything to win. It is sickening. I can not vote of this man.
3. Rick Santorum. A good family man, and an above average Senator for PA. A true second tier candidate any field (except the one we have.) He is a fair communicator and fair debator. I will vote for him, if he is the one. Can he win, I doubt it.
4. Newt Gingrinch. A flawed candidate with a lot of (known) bagage. I happen to believe they all have past sins, it is just his are really out there to say the least. Newt can articulate the conservative message better than anyone since Ronald Reagan. I hope he wins.
5. A brokered or contested convention. This will insure an establishment republican. I know many say Rick and Newt will put their delegates together. I will have to see that to believe it.
Agreeing with me is always a dumb thing to do.
Like I could stop her.
For one thing, they dress funny. :)
Be well, my friend.
I agree with dt57's post, but VEHEMENTLY oppose your viewpoint.
Now I can officially welcome you to FR Survivor.
You didn't take the easy way in.
Never liked the word “always”..............
But I don't think she's pooping......
They don't come from Brussels.
Don-o, it was a joke in response to your complaint about seeing too many SPAM posts. I should have broken the link instead of giving you a real one, I guess.
Sorry.
Was I wrong?
You big, handsome sweetheart! What am I supposed to do with Hubby? You know I’m your friend and always will be.
And what about Onyx? She likes you too.
No, I’m not kidding. You think new members need to “take their lumps”? And some others like to tell them to STFU (Shut The F**k Up).
I don’t agree with berating and hazing newer members, who, if they stick around may become supporters of Free Republic in word and deed.
Again, I go back to what the site management said in this thread...
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2371466/posts
“Like any community, we have new members joining us daily. Unfortunately, the air of suspicion and the desire to keep things the way they are has fostered a feeling of distrust with new members.”
“Almost every day, we see new members join, then, because of comments of suspicion, they often dont return. For any community to thrive, it must grow. Because of this, we are asking for your help.”
“We need to be far more welcoming to new members...This could be as simply as giving new members a kind welcome, guiding them to how to post topics or replies, or just making the experience pleasant.”
You’re most welcome for my poor blog description and to Free Republic.
HEY! Slim! What?
LOL! Yes. I like the way Newt talks.
Lots of noobs turn out to be retreads and trolls. Others are arrogant and try to come in and run the place.
If you post a vanity as a noob, you might get looked at, and if it is less than stellar in quality -- editorial-in-newspaper quality -- you will get grief.
That said, STFU noob.
Aw gee, Thackney! Did you HAVE to warn him like that? Take it easy on the guy. I have to sneak up on him.
