"I'd say my politics are consistently conservative and speak to the goals and objectives of Free Republic as laid out by its Founder. Your politics appear to be coming from a different perspective then mine. Therefore, I sense you're feeling a bit uncomfortable and rightly so.

Because I don't agree with the tactics of the purge does not equate to my not being a conservative. Maybe it's a matter of degrees between you and me, and that's okay. That's what the human condition is all about. But, yes, I do feel uncomfortable when even fellow conservatives are being fed to the shredder for daring to speak up over the process that is already under way.

Enough whining already!

JimRob has decided to get FR back on a more cosnervative track. You feel uncomfortable beasue don't agree with the direction the forum is headed. The people who are no longer around this forum, were to one degree or another, undermining the conservative goals of this forum. We are in the early stages of choosing the GOP nominee for president. With the 2008 election coming after that.

This is political war. Were's you thick skin? FReepers are on the frontline in the battle of conservatism versus liberalism. This is American politics and sometimes there will be casualties in war. You either accept the change, or move along.

“Because I don’t agree with the tactics of the purge does not equate to my not being a conservative.”

You keep referring to some kind of a “purge” that seems to have taken place here. Sorry, I missed that. I have read almost every post here in the last few days and have not seen any mention of a purge happening here. Is it possible that you are simply being dishonest about this? I think you are.

I noticed you joined the WA forum yesterday. Were you “special” enough to get into their “secret back room”? Are they encouraging you to come over here and use that word, purge, over again and again to try to stir things up? If you feel so strongly about this so called “purge”, why don’t you go on back over there and cry on each other’s shoulders while pretending to be victims in all this?
