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?
“You people..”
Watch it, Imus got in a lot of trouble for that same remark.
According to the most recent Free Republic sidebar poll, over 90% of FReepers oppose Giuiani. Are those 90% the "FR wingnut caucus" that you are referring to? Does the "FR wingnut caucus" include Jim Robinson, in your opinion? Just want to be sure.
Wow, that is quite a list posted Zeroisanumber. PRND21, Peach and Luis Gonzalez? Banned? I’d be lying if I said I’d miss any one of those three even in the least bit.
Do you agree with Fierce Allegiance and Fair Opinion being banned?
Generally speaking, if someone’s opinion is censored it says more about the one doing the censoring than the person being censored.
If I am correct, and Conservatism and limited Government is the right path for our nation, than we should be able to win people over by virtue of our lucid logical argument. Banning people with differing opinions is just weak.*
*Jim, I will vote for whoever you tell me to. Please don’t ban me. I love it here.
Conservatively, thanks....:)
Hmph. Thompson was far more than just another Senator "voting for" the bill. He was the one twisting the arms. Hard.
That’s the point. Ron Paul is anti-WOT, anti-Israel, wants the legalization of marijuana, pro-free trade, against school vouchers and anti-death penalty.
You pick out the worst thing Thompson did(he has since repudiated it, and for honest reasons)
I’ll take strawberry : )
LOL.
I'm using it in the "Rushian" sense.
“You people..”
“Watch it, Imus got in a lot of trouble for that same remark.”
No. It was Ross Perot.
You’re trying to get me lost in Youtubes...where I discovered Meshugga Beach Party and got to listen to the end of Zorba the Greek....lol....
I don't think that there are sleeper trolls trying to stir up trouble. Just a new more strict policy.
Anyway, we do have trouble. If we are to win with a candidate say like Fred Thompson, we're going to need voters like Luis and Mia on our side.
Kicking them to the curb after many years of conservative anti-Clinton posting(that would be Mia) won't do us any good.
I can't think of a Freeper friend more loyal to the cause than MiaT.
She was Freeping for Rudy now...but I think she would have easily switched over at some point when it becomes obvious to most that Fred is the one to beat Hillary.
Give me a break. Ron Paul has been the most Constitutionally-grounded politician since the Founders themselves.
Paul is a right-leaning Libertarian. JimRob opposes the left-leaning ones.
So you can read minds? Whatever.
You want me to speak out with vitriol. You are actively trying to get me to curse you out so you can get me banned. Too bad. Go to sleep. I’ve been playing this game a lot longer than you have.
BTW: I never scream at anybody online. In fact, I don’t talk.
Those papers are owned by Gannett — far left.
I’m fine with the fact he’s repudiated that aspect of his political career with honest candor. EV is the one still carrying that grudge.
I’m glad Luis Gonzalez got banned. Probably doing the Rudy shilling that American FReepers won’t do LOL
How many breaks are needed? Ron Paul is no social conservative.
