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?
Is that why I have not heard from my Mom in 2o years????
Kidding, though I put her thru pure hell.
But then too, her menopuse (sp?) almost killed all of us siblings also. Wow, that was tough.
What is wrong with Byzantine?
I like the architecture.
Thu hail yew say!!
LOL!! Ya know I’m giggin’ ya!
“And I think that you are being dishonest when you say that you would not demand that those responsible for a terrorist attack like that on our military barracks today be brought to justice by any means necessary.”
I’m not being dishonest, I almost reenlisted because of Reagan, instead I joined an Airborne Ranger National Guard unit just months before that attack, the mission of my unit was purely to operate against the Soviet Union on their side of the border in Europe.
The strategic implications of that terrorist attack was of great interest to my unit, and as angry and as vengeful as guys like us could be, we had faith in Reagan’s view of the bigger picture, and most of us did not feel about dis railing Reagan’s strategic goals the way you do.
As for Clinton in Somalia, again as a conservative you should already know all the responses I could give you on that, but you don’t do you?
The battle was a hard earned American victory that Clinton flushed away.
Clinton, Carter, Giuliani, and Reagan, it is a little tough to watch you trying to make this sandwich, but Reagan isn’t going on that plate.
Smooch !!!!
Get my card? Tard.
My mom’s was too. Mine coincided with son going crazy, so I went on welbutrin for awhile.
Too busy being a distraught parent to be able to indulge in the traditional family pattern of falling apart at that time of life.
byzantine
(sometimes lowercase) characterized by elaborate scheming and intrigue, esp. for the gaining of political power or favor: Byzantine methods for holding on to his chairmanship.
Not quite there yet......but am starting to use that as an excuse!!!
The 3 sewing machines are key
I have three as well, but I can’t wait for the day I have a long arm.
Quilting is an illness, but it keeps me sane with 3 teenagers!
Perimenopause can start in your 30s...makes a great excuse!
I wish I had a long arm one too, but don’t.
I need to start sewing and stop buying stuff to sew with!
I will lie thru my teeth anymore to get a free evening and a good nights rest!!!!
Husband got to retire at 55. It was so nice to kiss my alarm clock goodbye (well, actually, I just don’t set it any more.) No more 5 AM wake ups so I can be awake to get everybody up and moving...No more teenagers to try to drag out of bed. No more making lunches.
That’s been the best part of it. Now I can stay up to midnight and sleep to 7...(about the time my legs say get up or I will make you regret it forever)
Your baby still howlin’ all night and keeping you awake?
Teenagers, Perimenopause and gettting a good night’s sleep...
Rolls off the tongue.
What does that mean? Is it an informal for "applause"?
