Can I take a shot at it? Some may be focusing on the moderators resigning over perceived bigotry they were not allowed to deal with. Some may think bigotry is bigotry whether it is against Catholics, Mormons, Blacks or Orientals. Some may remember when FR was derided by some for supposedly allowing bigotry to go unchecked. That was corrected eons ago and some may now fear FR has come full circle,
OK
Please. Obama's been acting as Emperor of this country, orders issued by fiat, contravening laws that, yes, our elected official put into place. Does the recent amnesty by fiat come to your mind? Obama's already shown no respect for the rule of law much less listening to ANY elected representatives or Senators. He rules by Executive Fiat. And, mark my words, it will only become worse should he remain in office.
“Sure am sorry that Mitt isnt a Mason, then you and the other bigots would really be in high clover. Sad to see the site devolve into what it claims to despise..a hate site. Gone.”
Funny you should say that. Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, as well as many early Mormon leaders, were in fact Free Masons. Their temple rituals and symbols are directly inspired and stolen from the Free Masons. Bye bye MittBot.
Thank you for your words and for sharing your family history with us. God Bless your family.
... you are, demonstrably, mentally retarded.
Re-read #262... study up on the electoral patterns of Seattle... and then get back to me. Toddler.
Thanks for the ping. The title sums up how I view it.
“...The Christian Bible warns us ... of false prophets...” I’m pretty cash-strapped Jim but this thread reminded me why FR is the best conservative site. I’m going to pull the plastic and make a Freepathon donation tonight.
With great bluster and cluelessness you have, unsurprisingly, missed the point. The lesson is about what a man is willing to do in order to survive. What personal compromises would one make to continue to live. It has nothing to do with turning this country into Nazi Germany.
There is a man in the Whitehouse determined to destroy our economy, and every vote for a viable alternative candidate is a vote to remove him from office. When compared to what a man has to do to survive the Holocaust, voting for Romney sure seems a mighty trivial exercise to me.
Plus, he’s a freeper, known as Eternal Vigilance.
I agree with you 100%. Im over this crap.
*** That makes your vicarious opus even worse than hers, in essence. RepoGirl got the zot, and yet you’re still here.
I was ready to stop posting against Romney on FR because I thought JR didnt approve. I dont want to be a pest in another mans home.
***Same here.
it;s amazing how many on here are having baby tantrums due to the owner of the site not wanting to vote for Romney.
I always had it in me that the left were the baby throw the toys out crowd but these last 24 hours has opened my eyes.
I’ve seen zot me, ban me, close my account, WTH is all that about.
Which is basically another kind of utilitarian argument, one which may be more or less perceptive than the utilitarian argument that posits Romney would be more open to conservative influence of his administration than Obama would be. Nobody’s setting up the straw man here that Romney is any wonderful shakes in the conservative department himself. He is not. He is at best a worrisome waffler. Still! We have two doors to choose between, one of which we will be pushing our shoulders against in 2013. I choose the door which I believe will be easier to push.
I was thinking of voting for Kirk and Spock
***I saw a good bumper sticker today: Kobyashi/Maru 2012
You know Sola- I do not normally engage people like you and though I don’t know you, I do.
I have read on this thread about people who were “Mormon bashing” and I would almost bet my “Jew-Gold” you’re one of them- probably the leader of the pack.
The Torah teaches that when you rebuke someone for offenses against the rebuker or for sins against G*d, it should be delivered in private, and spoken gently and tenderly. One is to continue admonishing until the sinner assaults the admonisher and says to him (or her) “I refuse to listen”.
Well Sola- “I refuse to listen”.
I was as ABR as anyone here. Ask my friends and family. Over the last month or so, I have come to the realization that, if I want my country to continue to exist, I have to become ABO.
***I believe you are the only FReeper I’ve come across who has been converted from ABR to ABO. Was it due to the stunning logic that the ABO crowd generated on these FR threads?
Well he had to wrestle so many pigs in Mass. he got a little muddy. Cant be helped; but as president hell show his true conservative colors
***You really believe that? Then why did one of his top advisers say that he would “etch-a-sketch” his conservative positions?
The man will say anything to be president, and you’re gullible enough to believe him.
I’m not blaming you, just trying to understand how you and other ABR FReepers see this all playing out.
***If Romnuts wins, the only way to get a conservative in the office for 2016 is to unseat a sitting republican in the primaries. Ain’t gonna happen. So a romnuts win means 8 more years of librulism.
