15000
Hurts. This has caused a lot of collateral pain.
There’s a place for doing what was done, and I respect JimRob greatly, and I understand he had to draw a line in the sand. And that’s pretty much done.
But lots of folks are reacting to the number, and the new fact that people are calling them monsters and trolling them for saying they will vote for the good of the party “if.”
That’s not the same thing as being a Rudybot.
And it’s adding to the hurt load.
D’oh :)
Rats! I was trying to make it in on 15000. Congrats.
Congrats on 15000!
That is why I like the bugzapper concept. It is just a light which has been lit. Bugs, trolls, and unsavory critters fly right into it and create a satisfying noise sort of like a zot sound.
They just can’t help it because of what they are.
Rudy is not my idea of a conservative candidate .. but he is no Hellary
At least Rudy will defend our country
As for McCain .. In all honestly .. I REALLY can't stand the man
But like I said .. whoever the candidate is in the General election .. I will vote for that person
whatever
You make some good points, especially if FR is meant primarily for social conservatives.
This may sound kind of uninformed on my part, but I hadn’t really picked up on the fact that FR is strictly a socon site, I’d figured it for just “con” up until this week, though I’d certainly noted early on that libertarian thought is met with scorn by many freepers. Even though libertarianism in its boiled down essence runs pretty parallel to the definitions of conservatism put forth by Jim Robinson’s defintions of conservatism the last few days (except with belief in God not being a requirement for libertarianism).
It looks to me as if this entire fracas is about social conservatism vs the other strains of it.
And I honor you for it!

Yes! I’m hoping savvy freepers can help educate me.

I think most of them are so delusional that they actually believe they are conservatives and they are genuinely confused about why real conservatives aren’t in agreement with them.
(copin’ off smart~gurilz paper when she ain’t lookin’)..;0)
In what way? so far he has shown that he despises the Idea of closing the borders, and has put his mob friends in positions of authority in the Department of Homeland Security. He is a draft dodger just like Clinton, and has always moved to disarm the law abiding populace when he was in power. My Idea and Rooty's idea of defending America are diametrically opposed.
Thanks! I'd like to thank my mother and father, and of course Jesus...
Oops, got a little carried away there!
You forgot your halo
nice bait
