Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?
vanity | April 21, 2007 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 04/21/2007 6:42:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

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?

What the hell is an x’ian?

Because it sure isn’t a CHRISTIAN!

X is the replacement for ‘Christ’ that liberals are always trying to shove down are throats at ‘CHRISTmas’ time.

And yet you say ‘I am not an atheist’.

Well if that’s true, you sure could have fooled me with your ‘x’ian’ statement.

My son loves to argue. I don’t.

I am proud to say all three of my sons love to argue, and for conservative causes. Now I am working on my grandchildren.

I don’t. But I’m developing a real taste for it. Rudy Giuliani may be the best thing to hit the GOP in a long time, because the danger of his nomination is making us fight.

I agree, Rudy certainly has stirred us up. I sure pray that the Conservatives are up for a fight because we can win this fight, we have the Lord, and what is right on our side.

But luke warm, and mamby pamby won't cut it, thats what people were sick of in the last election.

I too am very glad to see Jim Robinsons declarations today.

Some guy who thinks he runs Free Republic writes:

Wait a second. My advisors are whispering something in my ear. Uh, huh. Uh, huh. Oh. He does. Oh, Ok....alright, it seems that Jim does run things here. I stand corrected.

Jim, the first 6 are undeniable and Rudy is guilty as charged...abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, global warming, illegal alien lawbreakers, gun control.

But the last 4...socialism, tyranny etc, etc...It'll take me a good 45 minutes to read this entire thread, but my initial reaction is "let's be reasonable and fair". I don't see it.

People who see extremists everywhere are elitists. I’ve argued with you for many seasons. I consider you a liberal, not an extremist.

And I want to commend you, not joking, for writing a well thought out piece. Most of the libs here write one sentence or an insult driven post. While you may think myself or others are extremist, Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan were called the same. I supported both of them.

I cannot allow my party to become a clone of the true liberal/socialist party. That means the fight is on. I am sorry we disagree. I wish you the best.

There are many, MANY of us who feel that way.

There are a lot of people who are afraid to post on this forum these days.

Reasonable, thoughtful, conservative people who don't want to be excoriated because they want to keep Hillary Clinton out of the White House.

I don't really blame them.

I agree with you. How about that? Question is how we do it and still maintain some cohesion in the general. Thats where the golden ring is, and thats why the division at FR now is such a shame.

I don’t think that counts unique viewers, only unique views. I’ve hit refresh on this thread a few hundred dozen myself.

And this forum fought me tooth and nail about my support of Steve Forbes, but they never EVER told me I had to go.

Big difference between Rudy and Steve Forbes, HUGE difference.

Not that big of a difference between Forbes and Keyes in my book. Atleast they are Republicans, Rudy is a total emposter.

Just for the record, Peach is one of the finest human beings to ever post on this forum.

She is a pro-life patriot whom I have been proud to be associated with.

For the record.

“The man is a socialist butcher plain and simple and bears nothing but utter contempt for the constitution and individual rights”.

Aren’t we getting a little hysterical!!Granted the man isn’t perfect. What’s the alternative? Vote for Hill & Bill, a 3rd party candidate or sit on your hands(like too many did in the last election). Voting for the GOP nominee will be a lot better than Hillary or Osama Obama!!

So now honesty and speaking up for others is 'victimhood.'

You have an interesting, albeit warped sense of logic.

But if it makes you feel good about yourself, Lukey, go for it.

I have a house full of boys too. Got a new Wii. FUN!

I guess we are making plans to stop Rudy from destroying the Republican party.
