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 We can thank him for being the chief architect of ObamaCare, which if we cannot get overturned and repealed, will finally accomplish the left's major objective of shredding the final remnants of our tattered constitution and ending our God-given Liberty forever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

Bravo Zulu Jim!
We think a lot alike, Mr. Robinson—that’s why I’ve been a Freeper for all these years!
At the moment, I am totally in Mr. Cain’s court.....
If Romney ends up being the nominee, I think we should spend our time and money turning congress to the right as a control on whichever liberal ends up in the WH.
Architect of ObamaCare
Obama - no
Romney - yes
Pretty much says it all right there.
God bless JimRob & FR!
Very well put. RINO's do nothing to advance the conservative cause. They are part the establishment who work hand-in-hand with the Democrats in a gentlemen's agreement to trade power every now and then while behind the scenes, they ensure that nothing really changes.
Many years ago, Ronald Reagan stated that he did not leave the Democratic Party - but that the Democratic party left him. I feel that I am very close to making such a statement myself, only about the Republican Party due to the RINOs that currently control it.
In fact, I predict that if Romney does somehow get the nomination, that the Tea Party conservatives will have no choice but to break from the Republicans and start our own party. Sarah Palin may have dropped a hint when she recently changed her Facebook profile from "Republican" to "Conservative."
In the meantime, I hold out hope that the Tea Party can still gain control of the Republican Party because that is our best hope to defeat Obama this coming year.
I’ve been against him since the start! Actually I’ve loathed him for years/decades.
He better not be the only candidate of choice. Someone has got to convince the Repubs that this is a bad choice.
Old school!
bttt
We could do worse than Cain. Much worse. I’ll take him over Romney any day of the week.
The only way Romney gets the nomination is if the 5 much more conservative (than Romney) candidates stay in the race too long and bloody each other and divide the votes. One on one against Romney, any one of the 5 wins the nomination and following general election.
For the gun control, pro AW Ban alone, I will not support him.
IM A HONKIE FOR HERMAN!
INSANE FOR CAIN!
ON THE CAIN TRAIN!
CRACKER FOR CAIN!
They keep making noises that I'll be responsible for 4 more years of O. But I'm not buying what they are selling.

Thanks, Jim..
The RNC stinks. They’ve hated the tea paty before it was named such.
I’m NOT voting for Romney either.
Very well said
That this kind of thing is even necessary illustrates how screwed up the Republican thinking still is.
Here’s an excellent link Detailing Romney’s Scorecard as a Rhino.
It also has some great Reagan quotes:
“We don’t intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all.” — President Ronald Reagan
“A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency or simply to swell its numbers. Don’t give up your ideals, don’t compromise, don’t turn to expediency — and don’t, for heaven’s sake, having seen the inner workings of the watch — don’t get cynical.”
“Let our banner proclaim”, Reagan said, and “if there are those who cannot subscribe to these [conservative] principles, then let them go their own way.”
I’ve been saying here time and again Romney is no conservative. Voting for him is just a proxy vote for Obama.
Yeah, but what do you really think about Romney? ;~)
So those who are intent on defeating Barack Hussein Obama at all costs need to find another place to post if Mitiful gets the RepNom, is that what I’m hearing?
The only God that I will support is the One that authored the Bible . . . all wannabees with their sacred underwear need not apply.
