Goodbye, ya'll...
Experience | 11/4/2008 | Self

Posted on 11/04/2008 11:55:36 PM PST by Positive

Well you folks, I recently passed the 10 year mark under this screen name and was here for a while before that under another screen name.

I love you all and will miss wasting my time here.... But that is what it has been, a waste.

Our once proud nation, today admitted that it has become a pathetic bunch of losers who are no longer proud to be Americans,

I have written here and spoken to friends and associates that; I don't fear an Obama presidency, I fear a fellow citizenry who would be so pitiful and wanting and niave and avaricious that it might elect someone like Obama to be POTUS.

So I shall find some new way to spend my time, money and energy, and hopefully it will be in an arena that is more effective in defeating the virus of socialism and/or "pure" democracy.

You folks are great and I admire your points of view...but we have failed to a degree that is far beyond where I thought we could go...

Our Great Country needs to develop a new faction that has greater integrity and commitment, and failing that, it is done...

I pray that I am wrong...but you know that old discription of insanity....

Best to you all and I hope you make a difference but my faith is wasted.

I understand where you’re coming from. While some have misunderstood your post in thinking you are blaming the people here What I heard you saying was posting here isn’t going to defeat the evil we have just elected to run our country.

Something a lot more pro-active.

I will no longer claim to be a republican. Elements within this party discust me. I will not support a party that allows members to attack Gov. Palin in the manner we have seen.

With Obama’s national police force and the BILLIONS of tax dollars going to ACORN this may well be our last quasi-free election.

Obama has said he opposes gun ownership, so of course there will be the idiots that say we must do what Cesar tells us.

My guess is this ends really bad, probley civil war.

One thing for sure, Americans have killed the goose and GWB a republican socialist helped lead this nation deeper down the road to communism.

Obama after all is friends with and probley a radical marxist.

We’re screwed.

I agree with you completely. Since there will be a flood of 40 or 50 million new Democrat voters who cannot speak English and therefore won’t be listening to talk radio by 2012, it is pretty much over. Next, the deluge. America has decided to dissolve into the brown socialist world.

I hope you change your mind, but I understand.

I'm going to wait a few days myself. If I see a continuation of the over-the-top contentious behavior I have seen on here during the campaigns, I will be bidding farewell also. I've given it strong consideration.

Best wishes to you, my FRiend. I hope we're all back on here someday, somehow celebrating a return of our liberties.

I’ll never give up on my country. I owe that to my son and every other person serving this country. Our country didn’t die, we had an election, we’ll have another one in 2 years and another (presidential) election in 4. We have time to recapture who we are as a party and a nation. We lost track of that. Maybe the lessons of Obama will be painful but sometimes we can only learn who we are (as a nation and a party) when we step back and take an honest look at ourselves. Jimmy Carter brought us Reagan. Clinton gave us Newt...imagine what Obama will bring. We are America. This election is an anomaly. When we don’t have a strong candidate this is what happens. But we have wonderful conservatives like Sarah and Bobby Jindal waiting in the wings. It will be okay.

You apparently have the wherewithall to do that and I wish you well in your endeavors. Alas for me, age and other limitations confine me.

Go with God!

"Yes Obama is scum but I'm actually more angry at the idiots who voted for him. A pox on these people."

One of the main points in my post actually... "the idiots" of whom you speak comprise more than 51% of the voters...

I don’t know why one can’t FReep for a half an hour in the morning, get the news, then go to work. It’s a good news source, but it doesn’t have to take up so much time that one can’t do anything else worthwhile.

Coincidentally, I was just thinking, a few hours ago, that I had been here for a little more than 10 years and that it’s time to change my screen name.

Just curious, but what reasons are there to change one's screen name - after ten years or ten days? That's a genuine question: Why change one's screen name?

Regards,

My Gosh!!! I am so upset I cannot even sleep! My state went blue tonight and I had to suffer though my co-workers slapping themselves on the back and laughing in my face tonight before my shift was over and I left in tears but COME ON!!!!

I have been a member since 2002 (I think) and I have learned so much on FR and I will never give up on this country.

BHO and this election is not bigger than what Christ did not the cross and I refuse to give up!

Maybe it is time we divided the US up? I sure don't know the answers but I guarantee that there are very smart people on this forum and we will all get by the next 4 years and rebuild this party and this great nation!!!

Yep.
Good opus.

This whole election has amounted to the ultimate irony: A nation IS it's citizens, and Americans have (enthusiastically!) directed their nation down the same toilet of mediocrity as the socialist nations of old Europe. Therefore, America is no longer worth caring about. Ironic!

If most Americans don't care about their own nation, then I'm sure not going to give myself heartburn worrying about it.

Don't forget that it is just a few more than half and most of those were still wet behind the ears. I was that way until I turned 64 years young. Hate to admit, but I used to be a bleeding heart liberal also.

Obama didn't get 100% of the vote. Where is the mandate?

It is not a waste..

Your Faith will continue to see you through.

You have chosen to open up more doors/window of opertunity.

Hence you wont be hanging out at FR so much in the near future.

God Speed...take a nap and feel better than go conquer your next adventure.

“...if Obeyme decides to close FReepublic and all other sites of Freedom and conservatism using the unfairness doctrine..”

It’s funny you should bring that up.

The left is trying to use net neutrality to infect the internet with their “fairness doctrine”. Since FR posts articles that lean conservative Jim may have to run “ads” for opposition ideas/articles/sites in sidebars, or in banner positions.

The idea will be on the table when the “fairness doctrine” is considered. I kid you not.

They will seek to control THE MESSAGE.

Expect them to fight tooth-and-nail for this one.

They mean business.

I know this guy is upset and I hope he changes his mind but we have to open our eyes to the fact that 0bama’s socialism is only the beginning of the problems we face.

Let’s fight them!

I support your decision.. I too wish we could do more but this party is either lazy, content, or has forgotten that the only way for the evil man to succeed is for the good man to do nothing
