We've got some real challenges facing us. FR was established to fight against government corruption, overstepping, and abuse and to fight for a return to the limited constitutional government as envisioned and set forth by our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and other founding documents.
One of the biggest cases of government corruption, overstepping and abuse that I know of is its disgraceful headlong slide into a socialist hell. Our founders never intended for abortion to be the law of the land. And they never intended the Supreme Court to be a legislative body. They never intended God or religion to be written out of public life. They never intended government to be used to deny God's existence or for government to be used to force sexual perversions onto our society or into our children's education curriculum. They never intend for government to disarm the people. They never intended for government to set up sanctuary cities for illegals. They never intended government to rule over the people and or to take their earnings or private property or to deprive them of their constitutional rights to free speech, free religion, private property, due process, etc. They never intended government to seize the private property of private citizens through draconian asset forfeiture laws or laws allowing government to take private property from lawful owners to give to developers. Or to seize wealth and redistribute it to others. Or to provide government forced health insurance or government forced retirement systems.
All of the above are examples of ever expanding socialism and tyranny brought to us by liberals/liberalism.
FR fights against the liberals/Democrats in all of these areas and always will. Now if liberalism infiltrates into the Republican party and Republicans start promoting all this socialist garbage, do you think that I or FR will suddenly stop fighting against it? Do you think I'm going to bow down and accept abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, global warming, illegal alien lawbreakers, gun control, asset forfeiture, socialism, tyranny, totalitarianism, etc, etc, etc, just so some fancy New York liberal lawyer can become president from the Republican party?
Do you really expect me to do that?
That’s a good point.
Jim Gilmore has strong experience in analyzing America’s terrorism risks, Duncan Hunter has served on the Armed Services Committee. McCain has advocated Iraq policies vigorously and shows an understanding of our policies’ intricate details.
Rudy Guiliani insisted in locating a crisis response center in a building known to be a target for international terrorism, and can’t keep his own campaign paperwork secure.
True, honest, committed conservatives could not possibly be baited into getting banned in this environment. Anyone who got banned this week got banned by their own choice.
I don’t know of any Clown Posse members posting here. Tell me who they are, and I’ll gladly bait them. ;-)
I did explain, though I am not sure why I should have to answer to you. Are you in charge of the conservatives?
ROFL...
Not letting Lebanon derail his plans???
241 US Marines were killed by terrorist butchers. My brother in law had an Uncle that was among the dead. I guarantee every one of us here today at these boards would have demanded that Reagan bring all of the organizers of that attack to justice. And How would we look back at the lack of response if Carter had been pres when it happened? My guess is people would think differently if Carter had said he didn’t want Lebanon to derail his plans.
No. You’re free to post whatever you want, and so am I, as long as we stay within our host’s rules.

but don't cha know - republicans aren't conservatives and this is a conservative website?
All conservatives are republicans, and at the moment, most conservatives are Republicans.
I don’t know what happened...but hang in there, OK?
“Rudy Guiliani insisted in locating a crisis response center in a building known to be a target for international terrorism,”
That has always troubled me because it reveals how his mind works, any leader has mistakes his critics can attack, but flawed leaders make mistakes that reveal how their shortcomings created those mistakes.
My guess is that just about every veteran, or any one with a military type mind is troubled by his lack of recognition of the physical vulnerability of placing his base there, I don’t think he understands much of the physical world of military style actions and defenses.
Ok, thank you for the explanation.

I don’t suppose this would be the proper place for a hijackin’ episode. ;) Oh, darn.....chicken’s almost ready....hubby’s grilling and I’m playing. Bad chena. Gotta run!
I have a problem with the fact that some Clown Posse members are allowed back here, for some reason or another.
They're so stupid they'll be gone soon. It's in their nature.
Now come on, it's Friday night, scoot over to the Canteen and listen to some AWESOME music...or stay here and we can "play".
Plan C? Git over to MY house and help CLEAN! :)
Stop that! They'll go down in a flame of their own glory! ;)

The source was one who cried “Appease”, I’d have to think.
