Long Cut says:
"No. I believe that ANY enhancement of individual rights and liberty is a GOOD thing, and all Roe did was enhance those rights contained in the 4th Amendment to cover individual privacy. Jettison Roe and along with your hated abortion (which wion't go away in the abscence of Roe, BTW) the right to individual privacy also goes. No deal, and you can gloat all you want and call me names like a schoolkid now."
Good. You are now OUT OF THE CLOSET. You support ABORTION OD DEMAND. Do tell, since the GOP is pro-life and this website's missions statement includes the phrase "Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family ...", what is your intent here?
By way of answer, I joined following 9-11 bwecause of tyhe overwhelmingly pro-military, pro-Defense, and pro-America attitude here. I stayed because I met many fine people who supported America's fighting men and women in our cause, and did so without any reservations. I liked participating in discussions of military matters and hardware with which I am familiar.
I also liked discussing the RKBA, as I am a longtime supporter of the 2nd Amendment and a gun fancier.
Too, I am a lifelong Republican, and a strong supporter of the President. That's just a few of the reasons I'm here.
However, I feel NO need to march to YOUR fanatical drummer. I DO NOT support giving the government any more powers over individual rights than it already has, no matter how much some zealots claim that, just this once, it's okay and won't, honest, EVER be abused.
You see, you're falling into your own pit again...you assume that your one "obsession issue" is what makes or breaks a conservative and a Republican. I can't say I'm sorry to disappoint, though.
News flash - one can be a Republican and a conservative and not support EVERY single plank. If you disagree with that, ask the Congress and President about the principle of limited spending and limited government.
