Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?

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?

“And on the flip side of that, I’ve spoken with GREAT long standing Freepers who would NOT post due to the way things were...and are considering coming back.”

Fair point. I would have to agree.

[calcowgirl]

There is no “purge.” I guess that was the most important point.

That is one of the finest men this country ever produced. When he was lost, Lee was lost.

[BIGLOOK]

Yeah.....I know. They were swept by the BoSox and everyone else since. Damn Yankees!

Well, Rudy may be in first place now but only because of his celebrity. Season ain't over yet, Chief.

Just like there is no "Global War on Terror"?

With all due respect, If I invite someone to my home, I usually respect that they may differ in opinion. I leave it at that, not cheer if hubby kicks them out, not insult them or make statements to push the issue, that may make them more vocal. Some may deserve to be banned but I don’t think many did. Hopefully, some were suspended and will return. Both sides need to be more respectful. IMO

That’s a keeper. thanks.

You’re welcome!

Well said. Excellent post.

“(i.e., do I get banned, or do I just say the hell with it all and leave FR voluntarily).”

The only way you’ll get banned is if you trash conservatives in an effort to prop up liberal Giuliani.

“In the meantime, however, I will try to voice my dissent - in a hopefully positive manner - in hopes of bringing just a little bit on sanity to this otherwise toxic situation.”

Great be positive. Talk about positive things...but toxic? It’s like a breath of fresh air in here.

Howlin was pure trouble and a vindictive person.

That's preposterous.

You are entitled to your opinion...and I'm just exercising mine.

Cheers!

A program lives today and dies tomorrow. A mind, if it be open, may change with each new day, but the spirit and the heart are as unchanging as the tides." Owen D. Young

“I leave it at that, not cheer if hubby kicks them out,”

Maybe we should ask hubbie, to tell us hubbie to hubbie, or man to man, what he thinks.

[calcowgirl]

I don’t understand your comment or how it relates to my post.

[woofie]

You mean the side that called other long time Freepers asswipes?

Naw they are too good for that

[Luke21]

I wonder how many of these zotted people posted under multiple identities just for such an eventuality.

[Luke21]

LOL, the Stankees are in last place, but Giuliani is in first.

It’s still spring training too.

[rockrr]

I’m starting to get the impression that it isn’t so much the fact they got themselves bounced outta here, but the method.

Maybe we should be using the Alex Trebeck method - “Ooh, I’m sorry, that was an incorrect answer” vs. Donald Trump - “You’re FIRED!”

See, that way we’re still kicking them the hell out, but in the nicest possible way ;’}
