I respect your opinion and it is your site. I will not let the door hit me on my way out. There should be room for A MINUTE amount of tolerance. I am 58, voted for Nixon in 72 and straight on from there. I don’t agree with anything much McCain or his daughter have to say. Duncan Hunter has as much chance becoming president as I do. You would be HYPOCRITICAL now for banging anyone else for freedom of speech, since you are hell bent on not letting me have mine without being attacked.
You might want to monitor your pittbull and sex threads.
If you and yours want a party so pure, you will end up being smaller than the green party.

What is this "freedom of speech" that you seem to think Jim is depriving ANYONE of?

I think that there are a number of posters who do not understand the purpose of this site. Allowing a vocal group to promote a candidate who does not have valid conservative credentials not only does nothing to advance the conservative cause, it damages it if that candidate is elected.

There are those here who are working to promote candidates such as Romney, whose success would be at the price of our moving forward with a real conservative. The number of threads that are pro-Romney is of concern if we are looking to win with a conservative in 2012.

So this FREEPER can't tolerate Jim's opinion -- an opinion stated in the very thread and wasn't even personally aimed @ this poster? And this is then interpreted as some sort of personal "attack?"

This reminds me of the Dixie Chicks after they spoke out vs. the President on foreign soil. Of course, the DC have the right to support or not support who they wanted. But then, when people also started exercising their economic rights -- to support or not support who they wanted in response (in this case the D.Cs)...all of sudden, what was good for the 'Chicks on foreign soil wasn't good for their ex-fans on American soil...suddenly that was interpreted as a personal attack.

'Tis always so funny to watch the tolerance citers exercise their intolerance of free expression; and somehow 'tis OK to critique others in a personal way -- like Libbylu did -- but if somebody dares says anything interpreted as negative toward their pet candidates, look out, they've somehow been personally under fire.

(I just don't get it)
