I do not think this is true.
Do you have a link to the thread where I supposedly did this?
Well said, Jim. Rogue Yam has set himself up as the premier Romney defender on FR and takes it upon himself to denigrate anyone who chooses to vote his/her conscience in the most vile terms.
I know it would be a chore, but I'd like to see every post he makes blasting other FReepers deleted immediately. Why should the kind of ad hominem obscenity he spreads be allowed to stand? Especially when it's directed at you.
Rogue, what you seem to be saying is that there is a, to be polite, company yes man here who is posting over there to ruin you here.
That’s a very reasonable suspicion. A company/institution/whatever that has that kind of snake in a position of respect has a problem.
This is at least the third time you and I have discussed these issues directly with one another.
And each time you have simply refused to address directly the main issues I have raised in my posts to you.
I am not going to keep repeating myself and there is no reason for you to do so.
I am unalterably opposed to irrationality and dishonesty, even when discussing an apparent GOP nominee of suspect character and motivations such as Mitt Romney.
I am unalterably opposed to defeatism, even when the GOP nominating process and some recent USSC decisions have gone in a way that seems quite bad for conservatism.
If opposing unreason, falsehood, and despair are now against the rules here on FR then so be it.
Nuke away as you see fit.
I went there once a couple of months back from a direct link from a post here... That site is DU/KoS with a different name. I was shocked that personalities like that lasted so long here, was sickening (and most were very selfish and childish). No loss here .... (Although, I respect Quix greatly and I didn’t even know he left :/)..
If they don't understand this: "As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty..."
then they are on the wrong forum.

Yeah, I got that.
I can't control that and I don't really care.
It is a fairly transparent hoax.
So in other words, if someone has concerns about Romney, they are being unreasonable and are bearing falsehoods.
I'm sorry, but a quite reasonable and truthful conservative concern about Romney can be raised - that he is a very liberal Republican, that he does not seem to have any core principles other than seeking power and office, that he will change his political views to suit the office he is seeking, and that he refuses to acknowledge how bad Romneycare is. Just for starters.
And regarding the GOP-E, they stabbed Tea Party candidates in the back in 2010 when their choice of RINO lost in the primary. So much for their demands for party unity when the RINO wins.
And we saw the excesses of full GOP control during the Bush years. Bush only discovered his veto pen when Democrats started sending over the spending bills. And Bush showed his willingness to go around the conservative GOP base and cut deals with Democrats and Congressional RINOs to push the worst parts of his agenda.
So conservatives who are voicing doubts and concerns about Romney are hardly being unreasonable, and the cause for such concerns are NOT falsehoods. You would get more traction making a case for Romney if you would realize many of those whose opinion differs from you in that regard have legitimate concerns.
I personally think Romney would be better than Obama, but I can see scenarios where there would barely be a shade of difference. And other cases where having a RINO president would allow the worst of the establishment GOP to have their way in D.C.
Hey!
:)
Nothing anyone can say or do would lessen my love for Mr. JimRob or FreeRepublic.
Idiots come and idiots go, and the person who wrote this is just another idiot as far as I can tell.
This is simply not true.
Wow - seeing all those old names brings back the memories. I hope they are all doing well. :)
Quix’s post started me thinking when he complained of the big-money donors to FR who have departed, one way or another. Instead of deleting certain posts, why not charge for each post? And I mean more than “just giving their 2-cents worth”. Wouldn’t folks give stronger consideration to what they say of FR if they had to pay a hefty charge per post? /semi-sarc
In other words, how much do FR posters truly value what they have to say?
How are you doing? Glad to see your grandson is doing better.
That’s a very reasonable suspicion. A company/institution/whatever that has that kind of snake in a position of respect has a problem.
There is a snake for sure, and it seems obvious to me that the snake did what he did because he doesn't like my posts here. I have no knowledge, and make no claim, regarding the status of the snake here on FR. This sort of underhandedness is not what FR is about, or else I wouldn't be posting here. I have been relentlessly critical of certain posters here for the reasons I've made plain. It only stands to reason to me that one of them is the snake.
Well said.
What is missing here is the distinction between an intra-family squabble and an anti-family attack.
Thanks very much. Grandson’s recovery is a miracle He’s been cleared to fly with his Mom to visit me in 2 weeks! I’m doing dandy and trust you are too? Can you see November from your house also?

No, that's not what I am saying.
What's more, I do not think that you genuinely believe that that's what I'm saying.
See how that works?
