No thank you. FR is not a debating society. Our unalienable rights are not subject to debate and are NOT negotiable.
Those who do not understand this fundamental truth or are unwilling to defend it to the death can KMA on the way out the door!!
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Agreed.
Bravo. Thanks for the post.
Thank Jim. :)
Oh, I thank Jim alright, and I believe I posted when he originally posted that thread.
I thank you for following up on this particular thread. A lot of current FReepers kinda don't get it. It helps a lot to keep reminding them. I appreciate your post a great deal, FRiend.
Thank you. You’re right-it seems that too few of us have read Jim’s statements regarding this site. It should be very clear what his goals are here, as he’s certainly made every effort to educate us.
I'd even vote for Bristol Palin before I would vote for Mitt...
In fact, I'd vote for Levi Johnston before I would vote for Mitt...
For obvious reasons I only make a stink in extreme cases but today qualifies in my book. The constant trashing of Sarah with nothing positive said about any other conservative is simply destructive with no benefit to the conservative movement or to FR whatsoever. That has to stop IMO.
We need to talk about ALL the potential candidates' positives and negatives. We don't know what's going to happen. We can trash RINOs and libs. But allowing ANYBODY to just tear down good conservatives for no good reason has to be fought against. That's not what Free Republic is all about.

I could not agree more. I'm very concerned about this issue. We have two short years before the 2012 election, and we need to build on our mid-term successes, but there seems to be a vocal group whose goal seems otherwise.
There is a lot of grumbling about this issue going on. Maybe if we
1) continue to ask about who the bashers positively support
2) start a ping list for positive candidate support (or somesuch) so that we can get backup like you provided me today (that was really helpful.)
3) complain just a bit more about the more serious bashers...
I don't know. I've never kept a ping list and I don't want to seem like a vigilante jerk. But this is a serious issue. Do you like any of these ideas? Do you know how to do a ping list?
31% - Strong-jawed Romney.
36% - Tough-talking Palin.
20% - A third choice, please.
13% - Give it up, GOP, Obama’s staying.
I like ping lists for those of us who have mutual goals. They can be extremely useful, both as sources of information, and to alert their members to problems and issues that should be addressed.
I’ve never done a ping list, but perhaps someone on this thread can help.
Actually, Romney would drive voters away.
But, Romney is also not qualified, not eligible,
and has shown he is a backstabber.
Other than he is a dog abuser who makes great fake badges,
what is his qualification?
I'm glad I didn't scare you off! :0)
We'll see if we can fight this. There are a lot of FReepers that care about the direction of this site and hate all the non-constructive bashing. It'll come around.
That sounds good to me. :) I do think that a ping list is a great idea. Onyx has a Palin ping list, but a list that responds specifically to Palin (and perhaps other conservatives) bashing might be a very useful effort.
No, to both of them. I like West, Pence, Demint.
Freep this poll! Freep this poll! Freep this poll!

Please Dear LORD, save us from Romney! In Jesus Holy Name.
