Romney Supporters Banned From Free Republic
Fox News Nation ^ | By Emily Schultheis, Politico

Posted on 11/01/2011 1:05:31 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Free Republic founder Jim Robinson has a message for supporters of Mitt Romney: go away.

In an email to POLITICO this afternoon, Robinson admitted that the site routinely blocks Romney supporters from posting -- and offered no apologies for the practice:

Free Republic is a pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-small government, pro-constitution, pro-liberty site. Governor Romney is none of the above. His record is that of an abortionist, gay rights pushing, gun grabbing, global warming advocating, big government, mandate loving, constitution trampling, flip-flopping liberal progressive with no core values. That and the fact that he is the chief architect and advocate for ObamaCare disqualifies him for any consideration whatsoever on Free Republic as a potential nominee for the presidency.

It is amazing how anything and everything can be painted as extremist.

Up is down, black is white, 2 + 2 = 5.

This is right out of 1984, and I feel a lot like Winston Smith.

Here is hoping for a different ending.

I HATE Big Brother!

PS: I still hope the occassional pic of Anne Coulter isn't banned.

It looks like all the press has embraced marxism.

"Socialism is precisely the religion that must overwhelm Christianity. … In the new order, Socialism will triumph by first capturing the culture via infiltration of schools, universities, churches and the media by transforming the consciousness of society." Antonio Gramsci - Marxist - teacher of Saul Alinsky

What would we do for entertainment then?

Also, the Viking Kitties need to be fed playthings once in a while to keep them happy.

I shudder to think what a bored and disgruntled VK is capable of.

I do have to make a slight correction for the record. We do not actually routinely ban Romney supporters. We do ban them when they get out of line. What we HAVE banned is any campaign for Romney on FR. No way are we going to support that abortionist, gay rights pushing, Boy Scout excluding, gun-grabbing, global warming advocating, mandate-loving, socialist healthcare pushing, flip-flopping, lying, paper-hanging SOB on this pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-small government, pro-liberty conservative grassroots site!! Romney supporters trying to do so will be zot on sight or hanged in Fort Smith at Judge Parker’s convenience. Which will it be?

What will happen to the message boards @FR if Romney becomes the GOP nominee?

Aren’t you glad I spelled it like that? I bet some others are also.

Thanks for the forum Jim!

Patriotic Americans, like those found here and the T.E.A. Party are portrayed as racist, violent & extremist.

Then when the Occupy Movement is documented as being made up of Anti-American, Anti-Capitalist, Communist & Marxist with support from the likes of Hugo Chavez and Imanutjob, they are the ones portrayed as great Americans.

I pray 2012 will be the biggest Republican landslide in History, shoving the MSM propaganda right up their ass.

Of the people I know they would vote for Barry before Myth.

I'm leaning that way.

At least we'd have some gridlock.

Myth would have a green light.

I am with you 100 percent Jim.

Romney symbolizes EVERYTHING that is wrong with the Republican Party, he epitomizes the entire 'well it's his turn' mentality that gave us Presidents Dole and McCain. With those RINO bastards, the only assurance We The People have, is that "the fix is in", and a Romney nomination means an automatic re-election for that Kenyan SOB currently stinkin' up the White House.

In even simpler terms, what those RINO elites don't understand is that some idiot like Mitt-Witt who doesn't even have the common sense to put the luggage on the roof rack, and the family's Irish Setter inside the station wagon, but chooses to strap the poor hound to that roof rack for a 12 hour trip to Ontario, has NO business in elective office, let alone the highest office in the land.

I join with you in saying to each and every Romney backer (known and below the radar here on FR),

*GTF* OUT!!!

What they don’t get is, it’s your site. And we’re here with you because we, like you, are fed up with Romney and all the anti-conservative republicans who have contributed to the degrading of America we’ve seen over the past few decades.

They’re no better - no, they’re worse - than democrats and liberals. They accomplish the same, but with a semblance of being moderate. There’s nothing moderate about them. They lie, cajole and warp what conservatism is about. They and their ilk have no business on a true conservative site. And I know, and I know you know, that many of us wouldn’t be here if they were welcome.

You have nothing to apologize for. You stand not only for yourself but for us. And don’t let up. Ever.

Jim
