“Frankly, I think you’re wrong. I think she’s the most electable candidate we have right now...’

Stop thinking with your crucifix.

-—”Stop thinking with your crucifix.”-—

Besides being bigoted, that was presumptuous.

Where in the relatively recent poll - by America's most accurate pollster - that showed a staistical tie between Palin and Obama was this crucifix of which you speak? I would suggest you offer a critical analysis of the real numbers I posted instead of just surrendering the intellectual argument in favor of insults.

Palin is more like Reagan than you know. Besides the issue agreements, many of us who loved Reagan from the start are re-living the same arguments with the same kinds of folks one generation later. This is deja vu’ to many of us. We hoisted Reagan to the helm against the wishes of folks like yourself, and we'll hoist Palin or whomever carries the Conservative banner best in 2012. We ousted Carter with Watergate in mind and an aged actor/cowboy from thwe fringe as our candidate; we'll oust Obama with the Tea Party supporter from Alaska.

Until you have a better candidate to offer, you're just lambasting a good Conservative and her supporters without cause or purpose. Either bring a better option to the table and state your case, or stop griping about the fact that other Freepers have a pony to back.

Put the whiskey down for your liver’s sake. No one here takes you seriously any more- hasn’t for years- so posting while drunk only harms your health.

You know Bob, I don't know your history, and I can't interpret your statements regarding FR and your relationship to it or JR accurately, but I'll say this:

You are no coward.

And JR, it would be helpful to us noobs if, when placing someone on the scaffold like this, you supply a bit of detailed background. You know, like an indictment with citations.

That way, we don't just drop off the cliff of the cult of personality or deferral to authority and accept what someone says without any sort of collaborating evidence.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Your recent history of non-stop personal attacks, leftist sourced anti-Palin and anti-J.D. propaganda posts, and anti-FR statements stand on their own, Bob. And I told you just a couple days ago if you don’t knock it off your account most definitely will be pulled. And I see you’re continuing down the personal attack route today. I don’t see much hope for you. Anti-freepers are not welcome on FR.

Sorry, his recent anti-FR posts stand on their own.

Gary Langer Hates Robopolls, Probably Because They’re More Accurate Than His Live Interviewer Polls And He’s Apparently Just Jealous, The Poor Thing, So He’s Decided That Accuracy Doesn’t Matter.

Wow, your commentary comparing Palin and Reagan is probably the best I've read. The whole damn thing was good, but your description of the following should remind us of 2008:

Frankly, I think you're wrong. I think she's the most electable candidate we have right now, and that's why the Liberals and their media spend every waking moment of every day trying to take her down. You don't do that to your weakest opponent, you send them money and you laud them - which is why the media gives glowing stories about Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee.

Reminds me of the MSM's courtship of their darling, John McCain. They didn't do hardball reporting of him until he was the (R) nominee. Weakest candidate on our side against their Messiah.

It's the strongest opponent you try to take out as early as you can. All weapons are pointed at Sarah Palin daily, which tells you more than any media-sponsored poll ever will.

Indeed. Thank you for your patience in posting such a well thought out message. It may have been lost on the addressee, but you reached many, many more than that one person. Thank you!

Despite your earlier claims to the contrary, many of your comments on this thread seem to indicate a dislike, even an attitude of superiority to this site and its members.

You have offered a description of yourself as a “canary in a coal mine”. Perhaps you might consider the fact that if you are that canary, you are uncaged. No one is forcing you to remain in a place where it seems you believe you are so woefully unappreciated.

Stop thinking with your crucifix.

Bob J, self-appointed savior of FR and conservatism, stoops to insulting those of faith.

Hope you're proud of yourself. You should be ashamed, but you seem long past any sense of such.
