I will make all effort to stop bashing Romney and I hope that his supporters will likewise abide by the truce and refrain from bashing Conservatives, even if they are 3rd party.
Jim - I used to be much more active here on FR, “back in the day”..in the Clinton years..late 90’s, etc. In recent years, though, I’ve been a lurker. I wanted to come out of “lurkerdom”, though, to respond to your post.
Well said!!! Your post stirred quite a bit of emotion in me, and truthfully, I teared up a bit. I love my country so much, and am so worried about the direction it is going. Especially now, since my husband and I have been blessed with our first grandchild - only 8 weeks old...I look at him and try to envision what the future holds for him.
Anyway - just wanted to chime in and thank you for the moving post you wrote.
God Bless you and thank you for ALL YOU HAVE DONE!!! May God Bless America.
Thank you! This has inspired me to send 100.00 donation today.
“Come to Jesus” moment! Heads up!
“Come to Jesus” moment! Heads up!
I’m not going anywhere...
I prefer TEA over Koolaid anyday.
I then was further shocked seeing threads where it was okay for Newt Gingrich to endorse Romney but not Mrs. Bachmann.I also saw you ACTUALLY ACCEPT money in the FReeperthon thread from a dying man without a job.Please take the time to explain this or I will be forced to assume you are a lowlife if you don't.There may be a story behind it,I hope.But it sure doesn't look good.Please give that man his money back now! Have you lost your mind,Mister Robinson?
I bing searched Newt,Bachmann,Perry supporting Mitt Romney news articles and found threads from free republic that I thought were from daily kos.I know from reading an old bio a long time ago,that you are a former democrat.I ask: who could support Obama I mean really!? Did you get so disgusted with the GOP you are a democrat now?Am I posting on a democratic forum? WHAT IS GOING ON?Please kindly explain. Thank-You!
Why is it you are speaking for the tea party?The tea party is a big tent with people that are not as diehard as you with social issues.Upon further reading of threads why haven't you ceased the bigotry and mormon hating threads and the nasty posts running people off posted by the very people that help you in the FReeperthon threads?You need to reign in the group of hate that control this forum.ONE presently has no screen name and the others are just as nasty.
If this post is deleted or you do not reply to me; it will answer all my questions immediately and I will assume you have gone back to being democrat as only democrats act wishy washy and support Obama.You know darn well if you don't vote for Romney and encourage others not too and continue allowing other conservative candidates to be trashed on your forum; you are electing Obama.
Thank you, Jim.
Symbolically - and, perhaps one day soon, literally -we all crouch shoulder to shoulder in the same foxhole on the front lines, facing the same enemy: Our ideas about tactics differ, but I’d like at least to think that I fight at the side of folks who knew I was on their side all along.
I thank you very much for your offer, and accept the truce. God bless you, and bless us all, and bless our United States.
Will
Sounds like a plan. Resist we much!
Now, on to victory in November!
Anybody But Obama!
No need for any truce if they're actually conservative.
If they're not actually conservative, in other words if they're Romney Republicans, a truce amounts to a cessation of hostilities, which means they've won.
No thanks.
I agree with every word you say. I am so tired and disgusted with the GOP elites and their faux conservatism.
BUT I will vote for ANYone to get Obama OUT. To sit home and not vote in revolt would give the election to the liberal progressive traitors.
It kills me to hear so many conservatives who will refuse to vote since its Romney. Well for goodness sakes....vote AGAINST Obama by at least casting a vote for Romney.
We MUST do this or we will be so far into a socialist form of government from another 4 years of what we have now, it will be impossible to bring the nation back.
Bottom line is that Obama is killing us. He will have unfettered power once he gets another 4 yrs without the worry of re election. I'm relieved that you have had to look more closely at the realistic bottom line.
Romney 2012. (it makes me queasy but this is all we got)
I love this site and will help out with the financial bottom line as much as possible through a donation. You have given us a forum for true conservatives, I appreciate that more than you know.
The Tea Party will never succeed unless it starts by winning at the local or state level. Doctrinaire conservatives are a minority in this country.
Does this mean that all those who were banned or those marked as a troll and lost their posting privileges for supporting Romney will be reinstated?
Thanks, Jim
Romney was not my first, second, third, or fourth choice in this campaign, but I still believe he is far preferable to Obama. If only because he will have to at least consider the interests of the GOP base if he wishes to maintain any support after the election. Obama won't. In any case, I wasn't going to contribute to a freepathon if I thought election discussion was going to be censored/banned.
Given that we're all at least on the same side of not liking Obama, I'm tossing something in to keep the site going.
But if the Tree of Liberty must now be refreshed with it's natural manure, so be it.
It’s the right move Jim. Thanks.
Well said Jim. Living to fight another day, each of us are in this Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, all the Men and Women who make us Proud, each citizen is there whether that citizen wants to be there or not. God understands and the people at your site understand, why each of us have to fight for another day when our victory will be complete. Thanks Jim. From your keyboard to God's ears. Prayers Up!
