Sarah Palin was my first choice for president, but the left, the GOP establishment and many right here on FR wouldn’t have it. They trashed her and her family relentlessly with some of the unholiest filth and disgusting lies imaginable. Even so, I did little about it. I felt it was best to let the debate run its course on FR and that the best hard nosed conservative would rise to the top. Well, they drove her completely out and she didn’t run. Didn’t want to subject her family to such horrific pain and suffering. And who can blame her?
Then one by one, they turned their guns on and did the same thing to Gingrich, Perry, Bachmann, Cain and Santorum driving their support numbers down and Perry, Cain and Bachmann completely out of the race. As each one took their successive turns as our leading non-Romney conservative, they were relentlessly attacked, trashed and driven out.
Looked like we were repeating 2008 and were going to be stuck with a sure loser RINO again and Obama would waltz in for a second destructive term. We’re now running out of qualified conservative candidates and I’ll be damned if I’m going to allow Free Republic to be used to drive out our last remaining best conservative shot of defeating both Romney and Obama!!
Then a funny thing happened. Newt Gingrich, whom they’d destroyed and left for dead, arose from the grave and began smiting the heathen. He’s back as a born again hard as nails, no nonsense, bad ass battle scarred veteran of two greatly successful conservative revolutions--the Reagan Revolution of the 80s and then his own Republican Revolution of the 90s--and he's kicking godless RINO ass!!
I'm all in with the Gingrich Rebellion!!
I’ve looked at Newt’s plan. It’s Reagan’s plan on steroids. Radically reduce government, regulations, taxes, spending and the deficit! Restore constitutionally limited government! Restore states rights, restore individual rights, restore economic freedom! Restore superiority through superior firepower and restore American exceptionalism! Whack and dethrone the dictatorial liberal activist judiciary! Get the government the hell off our backs, out of our lives and out of our religion, and stop the wholesale slaughter of the innocent unborn!!
In short, restore our God-give unalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness!!
We are the sovereigns!!
Now what is there not to like?
The GOP establishment claims that Newt is too extreme and not electable. That he will be unacceptable to evangelicals, women and the so-called independents.
Well, I guess South Carolina put the lie to that rubbish. Newt Gingrich won the majority of every important demographic category, including seniors, evangelicals, women AND the independents!! The only demographic Romney took was the LIBERALS! Now, why is that?
Newt has the support of the conservative base, the tea party rebels, the evangelicals and the independents and we are forming a Reaganesque coalition to defeat the GOP establishment RINO and the Obama Marxists!!
And now Newt is the leading Republican in the national polls. Guess the GOP establishment is full of baloney on that one, too (as usual).
"Electability" (as defined by the GOP-E) gave us Ford and Dull and McLame. Voting for the crazy right-wing extremist gave us Ronald Reagan!!
They dismissed us before. They denied us, denigrated us, trashed us, tried to ignore us, but now they FEAR us!! And they should.
When the people fear the government there is tyranny.
When the government (or the GOP establishment in this case) fears the people, there is Liberty!!
Fear of the people is a good thing.
The Declaration of Independence explains that government derives its "just powers" from the consent of the governed and clearly lays out our recourse when government becomes abusive or destructive to our freedom and God-given Liberty:
"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."
I say alter it then!! The government is clearly out of its constitutional bounds!!
Secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity!!
We are rebels seeking to take back our freedom or aren’t we?
Rebellion is ON!!
Join or die!!
Don’t tread on me!!
May God continue to Bless America and may our Liberty be completely restored!!
Keep it coming, folks, we are the resistance!!
Thank you all very much!!

If you intend to trash Newt on this site, say your prayers and your good byes, because you will b-gone!!
JimRob:
With due respect, I did not trash Newt Gingrich. I merely pointed out his past inconsistencies in word and deed, that Newt himself was not truly a philosophical Conservative, and I pointed out that I thought he was not worthy of the trust of Conservatives now. That is my considered opinion from almost 30 years experience as an activist in the movement. Your characterization of my post as “trashing” Gingrich is incorrect, sir.
I have been a FReeper for over 10 years. I’ve had many debates and discussions — and not a few arguments here. FreeRepublic has long been a place where Conservatives have been able to exchange ideas and air differences. So, has that changed? Is only one view permitted now? Is only one candidate allowed to be supported?
Of course, Jim Rob, I know this is YOUR site. You may do with it as you wish. You don’t have to let ANYONE post here. But I learned a long time ago that it’s the LIBERALS who try to shut down those that have different views — not Conservatives.
So, if you want to “ZOT” me, well sir, you go right ahead. I’ve been a loyal FReeper for more than a decade — you’ll be cutting off your nose to spite your face. And you can’t do that too long before FR runs out of folks to “Zot” — or to ask for support. Up to you, JimRob. Your call.
We are not going to trash and drive out our last remaining best shot conservative in this race like they trashed and drove out Palin, Perry, Bachmann and Cain and trashed and left Gingrich for dead!! If you wish to do that, please do it over on Faux News forum or TrueBlueRINOs.com!!
It’s not welcome on FR!!
Rebellion is ON!!
GO, NEWT!!
JimRob — I said I didn’t trash Newt. If you think I did, you’re incorrect. Sorry if you disagree. I don’t like Romney anymore than you do. There is a Conservative alternative better than Newt — Santorum. NONE are perfect, but at least Santorum hasn’t got the personal baggage Newt does.
Is that so wrong to point out? How can you consider that “trashing” Newt?
