Purpose of FR and why we can never support Mitt Romney

vanity | Oct 15, 2011 | Jim Robinson

[Jim Robinson]

Our purpose and goal on FR is to restore, defend, preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States and to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity!!

The goal of the domestic enemy (the left), i.e., the statist liberals, Marxists and progressives is just the opposite.

The goal of the establishment RINO is to gain control of political power, but not to otherwise rock the boat. The boat continues taking on water and listing sharper to port every time the left takes over, but the unprincipled RINOs do absolutely nothing to right her when they get a chance. In fact, the RINOs actually tack on plenty of their own unconstitutional baggage when they're in power and so our ship of state today is in pretty bad shape.

RINO Romney is one of the worst. We can thank him for being the chief architect of ObamaCare, which if we cannot get overturned and repealed, will finally accomplish the left's major objective of shredding the final remnants of our tattered constitution and ending our God-given Liberty forever (they think).

The liberals believe our constitution is a flawed document written in a different time for different circumstances by rich old racist white men and no longer applies to today's circumstances. They're now even trying to promote the idea that the constitution was never intended to limit or restrict the powers of government.

Like hell! That was and is its primary intent! And we who have sworn an oath to defend it, will defend it--from all enemies, foreign and domestic!

And that's FR's purpose and reason for being.

Romney may be a Republican, and that's questionable, because he's violated nearly every plank in the Republican party's official pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Family, pro-Constitution, pro-Liberty platform, but he's definitely no conservative. In fact his record is that of a statist liberal progressive. And he's a total fraud to boot, with a nasty habit of lying--about everything. He'll do and say anything if he thinks it will help him get elected. He's a two-bit, unprincipled political whore.

Here's Romney's record on some of our primary issues of concern compared to Obama's:

Issue:	Obama	Romney
Pro-Abortion	check	check
Gun-grabber	check	check
Gay rights	check	check
Gov forced healthcare	check	check
Tax payer funded abortion	check	check
Man-made global warming	check	check
Liberal judges	check	check
Liberal appointees	check	check
Ted Kennedy pal	check	check
Proven liar	check	check
Fraud	check	check
Liberal Progressive	check	check
Enemy of Reagan/Bush	check	check
Enemy of the tea party	check	check
Enemy of Liberty	check	check
Defender of the Constitution	no	no
Conservative	no	no
Works across the aisle	no	yes
Architect of ObamaCare	no	yes
Domestic Enemy	check	check
Useful idiot	check	check

All of the above plus much more is documented in the RomneyTruth files on FR. Click the RomneyTruthFile keyword at the top of the main page. Also watch the "New Romney Campaign Video" also linked at the top of the main page. Watch it all the way through. I even saw some clips I'd never seen before. Pretty damning stuff for anyone running for president as a Republican.

Let's face it folks, the elite establishment RINO corps hates the tea party, hates conservatives, are afraid and even ashamed to have us identify ourselves as Republicans, feel we are dangerous extremist, racist, bigoted bible thumping, gun-toting, flag-waving neanderthals. The tea party is the best thing to happen for America since 1776 and our tea party candidates are the best thing for the GOP since Ronald Reagan, but what do the elite establishment RINOs do? They declare us the enemy! They went after Sarah Palin and some of our other tea party candidates with bared fangs and talons. Karl Rove and company were and continue to be as nasty and shameless on the attack as the nastiest lying liberal. Sarah Palin was the most exciting new face in GOP politics in a century and would have been a landslide 57 state victory over the corrupt, lying Marxist/progressive Obama. But the good ol' boys, i.e., the elite establishment corrupt crony capitalist GOP bastards could have none of that. Instead, they've opted to go all in with a corrupt, lying statist/progressive of their own: Willard (the Rat) Romney.

Well, good luck getting the Rat elected without the committed grassroots, pro-life, pro-constitution conservatives or the majority of the tea party.

FR, for one, will not play that game. NO MORE RINOS!!

No Romney. NOT ON FR!! NOT ON MY WATCH!!

Should Romney be "the one," I'll vote for the down-ticket conservatives on the ballot, but I will not vote for an abortionist, gay-rights pushing, gun-grabbing, global-warming advocating, big government healthcare mandating statist/progressive for president!! I'd rather write-in the name of the tea party conservative who best matches my beliefs. Romney is no 80 percenter. Not even close! He's the backstabbing enemy within.

God bless America!!

Long live the Republic!!

We live in California

My condolences - move to Arizona we need more FR Conservatives too strengthen the state more.

So, the answer is to allow Obama another 4 years? This is not a good idea at all. Romney may not be the best, and he may be a disappointing nominee, but unless some miracle happens (who knows, maybe God will intervene), it looks as though we may be stuck with him.

If we are stuck with Romney, than we will have to work all the harder in the 2012 elections to select and elect solid conservatives to every single office that it is feasible to occupy. Staying out of the process, and or pouting is not a way to save our wonderful country. We have to stay and fight!!! We cannot and must not allow the liberals amongst us to destroy our momentum and our hopes for a real change in the political climate of the USA. Down with liberalism.

[buccaneer81]

That's exactly my thinking on all points as well.

I am really disturbed to see a small cabal led by the aforementioned ding-a-ling and his harpies who act as if the GOP, conservatism and the decision on the nomination are the property of Texas.

[Lazamataz]

And I hope you mean — and I certainly mean — even if he is the Republican nominee against Obama. The best I will EVER do for Romney, is not vote for his opponent. I will never be caught casting a vote for a Socialist, no matter what the party label is.

[Melian]

Perfect bumper sticker: Honky for Herman!

[Da Bilge Troll]

I'd rather write-in the name of the tea party conservative who best matches my beliefs.

If the Romster is the nominee, I pledge to write in Herman Cain.

[mkjessup]

Well said Jim, and BRAVO.

This is something that our fellow FReeper SickOfLibs (just like you) has consistently been pointing out for years, which is that when RINOs like Romney get into power, their behavior is almost indistinguishable from the 'Rats and their fellow travelers. That '(R)' behind their name gives them political cover so far as the mostly ignorant masses are concerned, and they expand the reach and power of the federal behemoth, they enact measures that further limit our individual freedoms and liberties, and the Constitution is basically whatever shape they twist it into, in the name of political expediency.

These statists and worshipers of big government could not care less regarding our God-given freedoms that were established in that sacred Constitution. The previous Administration laid the foundation for such unConstitutional and tyrannical entities such as the 'Department of Homeland Security', the 'TSA', et al. WTF are such Nazi-sounding and performing agencies doing here in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave? Oh, those 'enhancements' and 'reorganizations' were enacted with the BEST of intentions in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, but the current regime is doing exactly what many Americans feared would happen, they are taking those well intentioned national security 'tools' and utilizing them for the purposes of intimidating, oppressing and persecuting/prosecuting law abiding American citizens while traitors and terrorists operate on American soil, pouring through the southern border, with little to inhibit them with the continuing "catch and release" program of the Feds, and the subversive policies of certain 'sanctuary' cities all across this Nation.

If RINO Romney is the GOP nominee for 2012, I will do as you have stated Jim, I will vote for conservative candidates lower on the ticket, and I will NOT cast my vote for Obomney no matter who he has on the ticket with him. If a legitimate conservative third party candidate challenges a hypothetical Romney-as-nominee, I will cast my vote for that challenger.

The line in the sand must be (and has been) drawn, and you have drawn it Jim, 'as for me and my house', if it turns out to be "GOP NOMINEE = ROMNEY" it will be "NO VOTE FOR GOP" at the top of the ticket.

God Save America.

Ozone levels rising...

[Third Person]

Amen to that... no vote for Romney from me.

[globelamp]

I was hoping that would be pretty obvious. ;)

If Romney is our nominee... See my tagline.

[Dr. White]

I will not vote for Romney.

It would be Obama II, with no opposition remaining.

[little jeremiah]

That’s it, another $10 for FR. Wish I could put in more.

The weird thing is if they stuff Romneypuke as a candidate, guaranteed he’ll lose. But they’d rather have him and lose, than have a real conservative and win.

[gibsosa]

On the money as usual, Jim!

[freekitty]

Thank you.

[MHGinTN]

Edzo, if Romney gets the pubby nomination the media will destroy him with revelations on LDS inc materials. In that event, writing in Sarah Palin may be the way to send the final message to the GOPlop that We The Conservatives of America are not going to tolerate any more rinoism amsquerading as conservatism, compassionate or otherwise.

[DAC21]

We have enough disciplined Conservatives in Congress with more to come in 2012 to hold Mittens feet to the fire for our agenda. Mittens won't undermine his Presidency by going to war with the Repub. Congress.

For anyone to say that you don't know what you will do if it's Romney vs. Bambi is asinine at best.

[Donnafrflorida]

Me too. I have been waiting for my check( paid monthly) to donate to Cain and freerepublic..
if I am not mistaken, the first time I learned about freerepublic.com was during the recount.

my girlfriend and I were so pissed we drove all the way to Tallahassee. Some Guy was holding a sign with freerepublic on it. I took a mental note to remember the name.

thanks
