There may also be a much bigger objective behind these smear campaigns — destruction of Free Republic and any other conservative entities. Instead of backing a conservative candidate and working for his nomination and election, we are expending valuable time and effort fighting among ourselves. All this fighting will tear us apart. And we could end up with Bernie Sanders in the White House. Is this what we want?
It's time for us to stop fighting and get busy with the task of taking back this once great country from the liberal socialists who have turned the US into a third world banana republic. Burt, and the rest of the anti-Cruz crowd: You've made your point, so knock off the anti-Cruz rhetoric, go vote for the candidate of your choice and leave the Cruz supporters alone.
