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?
“Why? And give in to bullies who have had a taste of power and wield it like a bull in a china shop.”
You make a good point here.
No, you’re not on my “list”. I don’t have a “list”; but that’s a serious charge and if we’re going to be talking about the guy that’s accused of it, he has the right to know. It was your generic courtesy ping, just like with anyone else.
I know they do a lot for FR!!
nice try at deflecting though
Because then the thread would die a natural death. Isn’t that what you want? If you start trading barbs on this thread it doesn’t do you nor FR any good, and it just keeps the thread going. Let it die.
Oooops.... Blush.... I didn’t go back far enough. I was confused about which site it was. I’d heard rumors like that about FR and from the way the conservation read, I thought it was JR and FR that was being talked about. Sorry about that. My mistake. Apologies to both of you.
I had not heard about that about the Minutemen either. I missed those threads, too.
You mean like you and a few other bullies on this forum who have banded together to replace the old pack of wolves (Hildy, Howlin and Peach)? Nothing like having another group of bitter angry women on the forum being bullies. LOL! Like I said, keep it coming, that’s what I’m here for. ;^)
Keyes may be a lousy politician (I didn't follow the Illinois debacle that closely) ... and I know his remarks on reparations riled some people ... but he is perhaps the most eloquent spokesman for conservative values I have ever heard.
I'll never forget seeing him deliver a no-holds-barred pro-life message to a convention of Perot-ites. His presentation was so winsome and persuasive that he received an enthusiastic standing ovation from that pro-choice crowd.
For anyone who holds to the stated purpose of this site, Alan Keyes deserves nothing but respect.
Jeff?
Is that you?
And see them at the end of it cheering...'look at me, look at the power I have'. That's rewarding their bully tactics. I have watched for days, conservatives who have the same ideologies I have, the same conservative goals as me, prance and preen and strut like peacocks daring anyone to cross them, conservatives included.
Kill this thread. Period. Time to stop it in it's tracks.
That's a really great story. I've seen similar events myself. His abilities are truly amazing.
For anyone who holds to the stated purpose of this site, Alan Keyes deserves nothing but respect.
No doubt about it.
FR has replaced one set of bullies for another.
***Then you acknowledge that the recently departed were bullies. If you visit WA you will see what they think of JR and Freepers like you. Think about that for awhile, and while you’re thinking about it, encourage all your freeper friends to stay off this thread and let it die.
Who's acting like a bully here, exactly?
But, in any case, good luck with that.
A bully is a bully no matter the stripe.
It has run its course most likely.
Hey, they could do like I am right now. Post one last post and then log out and never come back here again. I have been here at the Lunatic Fringe for too long. Every reasonable and Conservative( anybody here ever think what that word means?)post I have ever made here was ignored. Too much shrillness. too depressing. Too much attacking. AMF’s.
A Freeper in the
ANS thread got pissed off
at the suggestion
the ANS thread
should be used to talk about
Anna Nicole Smith!
Actually, we’re trying to promote unity among conservatives, and going forward into the fight on the solid ground of the conservative principles that Jim Robinson has espoused so well.
But, your fellow whiners are comparing us to Maoists and Ayatollahs.
Again, who’s the bully?
If anyone is acting like the dearly departed, it’s you.
