Remember Ronald Reagan's 11th Commandment...Thou shalt not trash a fellow Republican. Many seem to have forgotten that wisdom lately. We can disagree without destroying other candidates. ONE of them will be our nominee a year or so from now. Will we unite then, and how much will we have lost in this rather vicious process?
I'm thinkin' that Mrs. Valois hit 'em right in the solar plexis, how 'bout you?
Just as your career here at FR has been one divisive effort.
Yes ma'am, reasonably stated. I hope we can unite, but with the fifth columnists so comfortably muckraking I'm not certain we can. The fifth columnists want complete republican defeat. The fringe element of the right gives advice which would accomplish this. The fringe element seems to think neo-slavery will be their eternal salvation or some nonsense.
The 11th commandment is a fallacy. A slogan created for Reagan by Gaylord Parkinson in 1966, to defend against attacks from his GOP primary opponent fo Governor, George Christopher. In the 1976 GOP primaries, Reagan went after Ford with some serious criticism. Those attacks on Ford by Reagan basically ended the so-called 11th commandment rule. Bogus BULLoney!
I don't really understand what you're saying. I don't think EVie's stands are principled. I think hgis stands are purposely extreme so that any candidate can be a target of his 'principles', or any subject can be fodder for conflict.
Conservatives will never "unite" around a Leftist like Giuliani or Romney. We oppose liberals and the destruction they are bringing on our country. Is that too complicated for you?
I know you fifth columnists hate it.
Opra is on, away with you.
the bar is pretty much laying flat on the ground for many on the heads of many Liberal cheerleaders
Since you are Reagan Man you most likely know, but it does seem like a smart approach...to keep the attacks focused toward the real target, the Democrats.
Then we'll lose. That is what you want.
By trying to get Rudy the nomination that's exactly what you're doing...splitting the party and playing into the hands of the dims. That's what Rudy supporters can't seem to grasp. Many of us will never support the leftist media's darling. He and hillery have have the same agenda. Even he has said that, yet, rudy supporters can't see the forest for the trees. She has a d behind her name, he has an r, but, that makes it ok with some. You're blinded by the R behind his name.
No thanks, but you seem more familiar with the schedule.
Hannity gets 90% of his material ripped from the FR. If you ever hear him, check it out.
Gosh, Rudy campaigned for other Republicans and worked like a dog. And, in case you haven't noticed the polls, they are polls of registered Republicans.
I hope he ain't the nominee, thanks very much.
You wouldn't believe how often I hear that!
Also, since Rudy took on the environmental whackjobs, the mob, and Arafat, I don't think he'll have ANY problem taking on the media. And I'd cash in my Roth IRA to see that!!
I don't go running to the Mods, every time someone disagrees with me; perhaps you do........I don't. That's also there for people to see.
You don't read many threads here, do you. LOL
