I said Obama is a decent person. He is. I know people who have dealings with him and say he’s very nice and polite in one on one and he’s a good father and husband by all accounts. He’s just going to such as President.

You can like a person on a personal level and think they are politically backwards.

“I’m certainly not holding my breath but a role for McCain in Obama’s cabinet would be a stroke of genius and real creativity by the new president”

LOL...What a clown this writer is.

Obama is not a decent person. Your either an extremely poor judge of character or a troll. He’s a socialist. Bent on sedition and seeking to tear apart the constitution to meet his agenda. Endangering the populace with weak national defense plans, disarming law abiding citizens with gun control etc ....Basically empowering terrorists and domestic criminals. Now go bother someone else and try and convince them that your socialist hero is not a zero .........

What’s ironic about all the hate you spew towards anyone who disagrees with you is you are doing exactly what you say the liberals do.

Again I just pray you are not married and do not have children.

What's ironic is that you're full of crap and that nobody else here in this thread sees it your way. Nobody agrees with you. You didn't happen to notice this small detail did you? Can't you at least muster some support for your libtard notions here? ...and if not then why? You must wonder! It must be frustration to banter with somebody like me and "feel" right, but have NOBODY who actually agrees with you. As with all liberals, there's something wrong with your brain that keeps you from perceiving the real situation at hand and insisting that things are otherwise.

Well OF COURSE you would hope I'm not married and don't' have children! You're a freaking HILLARY SUPPORTER for heaven's sake! ...and this would mean that you despise the institution of marriage and the blessing of children. Unfortunately, you're too late. I've been married a long time and have several children, and they wouldn't agree with your asinine and leftist notions either. They're a hateful bunch too, let me tell you! :-)

I really do think you'd be happier somewhere else. You're a troll here and don't belong. Go to the DU, or someplace for PUMAs or recovering Hillary supporters.

Crazy lady Hillary Supporter alert! :-) She should just get in touch with BunnySlippers NOW so they can start a support group. :-)

Why are there so many “comment removed by moderator” notations all over the thread? What have you guys been doing? ;)

Here's what's happening. Outside of the brief personal jabs which occur within issues such as the one that you started, we're simply holding you to a standard. It's a long established standard and has certain "tests" that people naturally incline toward or not. You've obviously failed the "test", but continue on and simply prove by what you write and your reactions to us that you shouldn't be here.

What's happening here isn't "nice", and probably not even "kind". But you'll answer for what you've written with logic and a reasonable explanation as we asked originally before you digressed to hostilities or we will simply continue hold you to it and will ask you in every thread you post in to explain yourself for this thread. You'll have to complain to the admin mods eventually, and if they ban us for "stalking" then your type will be all that's left here eventually, and the owners/operators of FreeRepublic will simply have to deal with a forum full of your types.

So calm down and quit spitting fire and go back and answer for #92 (if possible) and say sorry for getting nasty with me and others for starters. Otherwise, I'll just keep this up with you and you'll either have to create another screen name to stay away from us, or not post liberal/retarded things, or "all of the above".

I find it amazing that the liberal is aggressive and offensive by nature, but the very instant we conservatives even display a hint of aggression, the liberal cries strong and loud and kicks back with accusations of hate usually. Either this, or they cry that they feel threatened.

I know you're not finding this pleasant, but you have to understand that there now exists a fundemental rift that is redefining "conservatives". Unfortunately, you're not on the correct side since this shift has occurred. If you were, somebody would have sided with you by now in this thread. Besides this, you've given ample indicators which tell all readers where you stand on core philosophies. I think it's obvious that you and us are widely divided. With as big a difference as we're seeing here, only one can be right in this case. Whether that is you or not, you're a minority here and you have to deal with this fact.

If admin moderators care to, they can go to the beginning of this little spat and I think they'll come to the same conclusion that we have....which is that you are a liberal/leftist.

As I said before, nobody in this thread has agreed with you so far and that should tell you something.

So "put up" or "shut up", but don't expect us to just drop it now that you've revealed who you really are. We're way past that point now with your type.

As with all leftists, you can dish it out, but you can't take it.

Bad people make bad presidents. It's a typical leftist idea that a person can separate their public and personal lives. We weren't born YESTERDAY, and we stopped believing this sort of crap when we learned that there was no such thing as the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, or the Tooth Fairy. Bad people are bad people no matter whether we see them in public, or private! To believe otherwise is to ignore basic tenets of human nature. But then, this is leftism we're talking about and they've honed this sort of thing to a fine art.

Let's take it to an extreme and say that the 9-11 bombers were really good people under it all. They just got misdirected along the way and did some bad things. Yeah right...another leftist concept. Leftists want to understand why somebody would do something terrible things, or hope in vain that a person at their core (in their personal lives) won't bleed over into their professional lives. But to think this way is to believe a lie. Worse than this, it's a lie which disproves itself out in the open. To think this way requires that a person be willfully ignorant, which is the definition of stupidity....willful ignorance. It's also a form of rebellion, which is why it's aggressive in nature.

But the worst thing about willful ignorance is that it self perpetuates itself to the detriment of everybody around it, not simply those who practice it.

It's not me dude! I suspect it's the libtard. They all come unglued and stoop to profanity and vulgarity when we confront them. We've seen it before. It's playing out pretty much like all the rest we've railroaded.

I'm glad to see it though. It shows that admin mods are on the job. I'm looking forward to another huge purge here. I hope they do. I would actually up my donation if they did!

I don't think so. BS is in CA. This lady is in/around Chicago. I've already ID'd her IP address. Not only this, but her writing style is different.

I don't know about the tossed posts. I suspect they were hers. Her types always stoop to extreme nastiness very quickly, and if I was to take a guess, I'd say that she suffered "exploding head syndrome" and spewed a bunch of nasty stuff into the thread and the admin mods deleted them.

Ah well... shall we continue to "redefine" conservatism my friend?! I'm rather enjoying this. :-)

The socialists posts got pulled when they got personal........out the socialist democrats when you find them here but NO PERSONAL ATTACKS !!

Don’t empower them by getting banned or they have done what they came here for ! Out em , as you did. They come here to disrupt. That she did. Admin mods are letting her stay for some reason. Her Obama is a decent guy comment will follow her around FR like a anchor chain......

FR is a conservative web site to the best of my understanding per JR’s statements....not a socialist marxist moderate can’t we all just get along feel good warm and fuzzy blog.

Old blue dog democrats WERE the opposing political party of these united states. They loved this country just as much as conservative republicans do TODAY. Those days and that party is GONE !

Today’s Socialist Democrat has a seditious destructive agenda and they are IMHO no less dangerous to all we hold dear and love than a terrorist with a IED or a standing uniformed enemy working within our system. They seek to destroy traditions, values, infrastructure. christianity and freedoms at every turn of their day while they reinforce their foreign traditions, false gods, socialism and totalitarian control of law abiding tax paying working citizens as they allow criminals more rights and put us all in grave danger.

Doom on them and anyone who says “Obama is a decent guy”.......

Just my opinion !

mccainvoterinobamaville, cut your loses. There’s no reason this has to keep dragging on. We’ve all said “harsh” or “hateful” things on this thread but if you want to point fingers, I think your post #63 is a good place to start. In case you don’t want to go back that far, here’s the text:

Post #63:
***Another so called conservative who hates the troops. Anyone that voted for Obama or stayed home on the 4th hates our troops.***

Really? I already refuted this but come on.
