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?

Do you think I confine myself to one website? Do you?

God willing, not for much longer.

I certainly didn’t take it that way. It’s an Office Space clip - in the movie he’s beating a printer.

Well it certainly looks like he knows what he is talking about when it comes to Giuliani for POTUS.

Giuliani was a great mayor for New York city, cleaned all that crime up, and he really rose to the leadership on 9-11, and no one I think would try to take that away from him.

But there is no way I can get behind him for POTUS with all that I have seen about him here on the FR. He might as well be Hilary dressed as a man

>>>>>M. Thatcher just oppused from FR via FReepmail. Says she’s going to alert the FBI to your post #5606 above. She claims it’s a “threat to candidates.” And she’s going to discuss it with her boss and her powerful friends in the media.

What bunkum! She`s gone, thats what is important. She hounded you to death over that "treason" thread, AKA. betraying conservatism. She supported Rudy and called herself a conservative. She definitely was wound tight.

The satirical clip from “Office Space” is supposed to be a threat to the candidates you criticized in the pulled quote?

That’s a CP-level of absurdly exaggerated charge.

This is getting too ugly. Isn’t it time to lock the thread and go forward?

I hope.

I didn’t know Republicans were against Gay people.

Most Republicans are compassionate people, we are not against anyone person.

It is the homosexual agenda we are against.

I did a quick google, and got this (no, I DON'T read that paper.....lol).

Apparently Rudy is now 'hedging his bets'--saying he would not change the policy during 'time of war' (how convenient, rolling eyes).

I’m sure the FBI will really appreciate a silly call, when they are busy doing their important work. Oh well, they must get plenty of crank calls every day : )

Fortunately, the immigration issue was actually won. Bush signed off on Hunter’s 850 mile border fence bill. It must be built unless the dems rescind it. It is the law. And it is being built.

Do you have a link that shows the status of the fence? Thanks!

Hmmm...a "threat" to a printer? Did I miss something, or is one a candidate?

But, now that I think about it, I have seen printers that were smarter than some of the current field...

shut down our right to political dissent.

Sir, with all due respect, this is your site. You can, do, and should, ban people with discretion. But who is, really, being shut out from FR's online political discourse? FR is huge and influential. Sure, there's going to be a he-said-she-said argument about who started spamming, flaming, and baiting first (contemptible tactics, all), et al, but is there any chance at retaining an element of debate here? I thought we were all on the same team.

Admittedly, I've only skimmed this very thread. I've made great acquaintance with supporters of Sen. Thompson, Gov. Romney, and Congressman Hunter. Left alone, the debates are civil and a nice representation of the power of citizen involvement, as well as the forum you have presented.

Respectfully,
J-
