One wahr at a time.
Funny thing is, I used to agree with you about Romney and you were highly pleased with that.
***Well, why wouldn’t I be? When you discarded your principles did you discard some brain cells as well?
Im still waiting for you to address the issue of all those CINOs as you call them,
***It was answered upthread.
Gosh, youre smarter than JimRob now. (snort)
***I’m still holding to my principles that JimRob said was so important. Those same principles that you discarded which now enables you to support a lying, babykilling, gun-grabbing statist.
“the Constitution ( a work of man, albeit a divinely inspired one)”
No it isn’t.
It is an informed and for the most part virtuous document based in large part on natural (God’s) law, but it is not ‘divinely inspired’. It is the charter for a secular state, written by patriotic, shrewd, liberty loving and for the most part virtuous -men-, but it is not “God breathed”.
God already has a chosen nation, and the United States is not it, nor was it ever, and at some point the United States will cease to exist. I think most of us will live to see how very much the United States is NOT His chosen nation after 90% or so of the voters endorse one culture of death candidate or another in November. He has blessed America in the past because for the most part the people were virtuous. That is no longer true, consequently we no longer prosper despite our relative wealth.
This site cannot be seen as a hate site by other conservatives,
***Good, then does that mean you retract all that antichristian bigotry you spouted on the earlier thread? If someone else preaches the gospel are you gonna call that hatred?
I see you’re trying to redefine conservatism in such a way that a freeper can pull the lever for a lying, baby-killing, gun grabbing statist and still feel good for himself and think he’s conservative. Discarding deeply held conservative principles is pragmatism, not conservatism.
I already answered that but perhaps your reading comprehension level is low. I'm not going to waste my time answering it a second time. Re-read my post (and Dr. Sowell's editorial) if you are truly interested in what I believe and why.
Awesome news! Now trolls, scram. You don’t have Jimbo for cover.
This country is already dead economically, so PREPARE for an unknown future.
***It’s a 2-pronged death blow to the republic. One is the economic bleakness you point out. The other was a blow from the SCOTUS when they refused to do their JOB and investigate the eligibility of the POTUS elect in 2008 per the 20th amendment. The 2nd death blow wouldn’t have happened if they had blocked the first death blow.
They are going to hold themselves back if they support Romney. There is nothing more insane than voting for a man that will undermine your own movement and political party.
Romney has already supported gays in the military, gay adoption, gays in the Boy Scouts and, today, killing unborn child conceived from rape. What hope is there is the moral majority is too unprincipled to vote for THAT?
***or we will have the flippin etch-a-sketch, in Chief.***
My biggest fear.
Hold their feet to the fire! I don’t care how charred they get. If they can’t walk by the next election, primary them out! Full on electoral revolution from here until eternity.
I already answered that
***You think you did because you THINK his actions were unconstitutional. But, unfortunately, they weren’t. If they were, he would have been impeached.
Article postings and constructive discussion of those articles is what made this site great for me when I was wrestling away from the liberal doctrines installed in my upbringing.
Conservative bloggers are being SWATd. Conservative organizations are targeted for physical attacks. As a result, we cannot afford to split up and harangue our own, even if we disagree on a political issue. This site cannot be seen as a hate site by other conservatives, and we have to rehab our community members so everyone knows what political conservatism actually *is.*
If you agree with this post, then ping one other FReeper to it.
For how long? Two years? Things will look as good for Democrats when Romney gets in and adopts a "bipartisan" (liberal) agenda as they did at the end of the Bush Presidency.
Romney destroyed the Republican party in Massachusetts and there is no good reason to believe he won't do the same thing at the national level, wiping all the gains made in 2010.
And, the beat goes on.
Romney destroyed the Republican party in Massachusetts
***He did? Do you have some articles you can point to? I don’t doubt that he did, and it mirrors my experience with congressman Huffington. But I should read up on this.
I forgive you for your actions on the other thread,
***You forgive me for preaching the gospel of Christ to you? You showed yourself to be thoroughly dishonest on that thread.
You’re welcome..We must fight with the army we have to defeat Obama...and elect as many conservatives as possible downticket.
Meant to ping you at #578
