With regard to our mission statement, social issues, obamacare repeal (goes without saying doesn’t it?) the definition of RINO, etc..
My opinion, “Life, Liberty, & the Pursuit of Happiness,” best answers the ‘social issue’ question. “Life” always takes precedence. We are conservatives and we believe and know that life starts at conception.
I’m awed by the progress and the ping list shows we have tremendous interest!
This is Christmas week and I see a lot of good questions have been raised. I suggest that more time and serious concentration can be better accomplished next week on these important matters. I know that a lot of knowledgeable members are busy this week, but please know that I am most willing to help whenever and however I possibly can.
GOOD GOING, you all! WOO-HOO!
Yup. Life is our God-given right to our own lives and to our posterity their lives. Government cannot take our lives without due process or grant powers to others to take them. Liberty is our God-given freedoms, not only those listed in the Bill of Rights, but all of our unlimited freedoms granted by God. Our government was never intended to be the giver or controller of freedom, but the DEFENDER of freedom, ALL of our freedoms. Pursuit of Happiness is the American Dream. Examples, the rights (not guarantees) to acquire an education, establish a family, a home, a farm, a business, a vocation, to work and to enjoy the fruits of our own labor unhindered and free of government intrusion. Free men were intended to live free, be free, worship free, be responsible, self-sustaining and self-governed. Government was never intended to be our cradle to grave protector, our safety net or equalizer. We were all created equal by our Creator and endowed by Him with our UNALIENABLE rights! Government has waaay overstretched its leash and must be yanked back by its rightful owners, US! Government derives its just powers from the consent of the governed.
LOL - I lean toward the FRREAK PAC (FreeRepublic Rino Elimination And Killer) PAC, but we'd probably be better of naming it simply the FRPAC - FreeRepublic PAC, leaving the gory details to the imagination.
A good plan of attack that all FReepers can participate in - where they live - will require a means of training and planning, which may require John Robinson's help - where only paying members of the PAC can see our strategy sessions and get the needed training. (We won't be able to do it via snail mail, so it'll have to be from some kind of well and closely guarded web-access.)
