Is my questioning of the demiGod-like love for Palin that offensive too you that you have to make personal attacks on me

Telling you that it is you that has an issue, not Palin is a personal attack?

Is that kind of like being asked to not make juvenile gross statements and answering "make me" being a threat then?

The mansion is not selling? It’s just a matter of price. Come down Mitt.

Conservatives really need to succeed in getting the general voting public to actually see the difference between a conservative Republican and a RINO Republican, prior to the November ‘12 election, if there even is a ‘12 election! Romney always has been and always will be a RINO Republican, and he will probably not be the only RINO running for POTUS in ‘12.

Agree entirely.

This is why the GOP really needs to find a communicator like Reagan and someone who has the wit and mental sharpness to provide a logical argument to convince the mushy moderate independent types (and a few of the RINOs themselves) that the conservative way is the way to go.

Look at that sentence for a second and tell me. LOL!!

Again it is quite fascinating that you are taking some valid criticisms of Palin's chances so personally. That's on you, not me.

uhhh right.....keep on thinking that Palin will be a factor by 2012....it plays well from behind the keyboard, I guess.

You seem to be using a keyboard as well, keeping up a mantra from 2008 you aren't exactly bringing much to the table except posting that you don't like her over and over again.

Too bad your almost opus didn't stand.

[glock rocks]

Naw, Mitt sold it.

[RegulatorCountry]

Oh, it's quite free. You're posting here, aren't you?

Abiding by the wishes of those who control the forum is a precondition of associating and participating, as it is anywhere, even on those ironically named "free thought" sites. Talk about rigid preconceptions, lol.

Back in my wilder days, I managed to keep from being banned while trolling an anarchist site. Now there's a tightly wrapped bunch. No digression allowed, period. And, no sense of humor when that oddity is pointed out, none whatsoever.

Except I DO like her views. I've said that in the past. I just don't think she's a very good Presidential candidate at this time. and look, I'm getting flamed for it. shock of all shocks.

Too bad your almost opus didn't stand.

Care to elaborate or to post a link? I don't remember that. Methinks you have me mixed up with someone else. I was very rarely on FR during 2008 until right at election time.

He sold it for just under the $5.25 million asking price.

I’m in Louisiana and I’m a fan of Jindal — but he has proven nothing so far. In fact, this year’s legislative session was a total flop: nothing of the bold ideas he promised to push for. Many conservatives here are disappointed. We’re still with him, but we’ll be chomping at the bit for action next year.

As you keep saying over and over and over and acting surprised that conservatives are getting annoyed at you for making such a repetitive personal statement.

I have broken the law according to Romney, the commie bitch. I have failed to produce the 350 dollars a month for health insurance so now I have a $1300 tax fine I have to pay. A two year old luxury car would cost about the same per month.

Thank-you, Mittens, you morman cultist!

[Syncro]

My you are quite sensitive. Having an "issue" (context: staying relevant) is a personal attack, and saying "make me" isn't a threat?

Like I said, I'm having fun with you.

You are an enigma. In a vacuum apparantly. Or on a "steek" like Jose Jalepeno maybe?

If you have to make it personal, that's your call.

And I'm not one bit surprised. The groupthink here sometimes is a little much.

Easy there son. That isn't a Mormon thing. That's a RINO thing.

At last count 119 posts of infighting and God knows how many else who were lurking too afraid to enter the fray. We really need to get our sh*t together and stop the infighting. Our opponent is well organized, well funded and supported. It’s time to fight.

We have to hash out what principles we're fighting for before we can unite. That's going to take some arguing.

[Syncro]

I just don't think she's a very good Presidential candidate at this time. and look, I'm getting flamed for it.

First, she is not running for president "at this time."

Second, you are not getting flamed.

You getting 'splained to.

Listen carefully grasshopper.

My you are quite sensitive. Having an "issue" (context: staying relevant) is a personal attack, and saying "make me" isn't a threat?

You keep saying things to me as if YOU are Sarah Palin herself instead of trying to counter what I'm saying. in short, you've brought nothing to the discussion except to talk about MY character instead of Palin's perceived issues.

And you said stop making the Reagan references. Why should I stop? If you can make me stop, do it, otherwise I'm going to continue on my own merry way. Sorry if that's threatening too you since I won't back down.

Like I said, I'm having fun with you.

And failing.

You are an enigma. In a vacuum apparantly. Or on a "steek" like Jose Jalepeno maybe?

On FR? Certainly. I question things when I see the need. Right now I'm questioning whether or not Palin is fit for the Presidency. I see her falling short of the goal. You don't need to attack me, as you have done repeatedly, to prove me wrong.

If you have to make it personal, that's your call.

Which you have done quite enough of yourself. Way to go.

And Palin still isn't going to be major factor in the 2012 race as a candidate.

Romulus has been campaigning for the job longer than Hillary and Barack and that’s the best he can poll?

barry goldwater-father of the conservative movement.

Remind me again how he did getting elected?
