>>Like I said, I think we've addressed this publicly on this forum quite enough. It's too damn childish.<<

Some have compared this to the American Civil War.

I think it's too big for that. It's the World Revolution, and we're witness to it. It's way beyond cajoling and "smoothing over."

Put on your seat belt.

I for one am not enjoying it. I like things the way they once were.

P.S. My tagline will probably have to be be revised soon.

This is the most retarded thread I've ever read on FR; ever.

And that's saying something...

In the end, they are left holding their package, because there just aren't any takers. Enjoy yourself while you can.

It's good that you used your "inside voice". Did you ever get taught how to sit at the "big table" or were you too busy pulling gummy bears off of the seat in front of you on the short bus? All those sticky fumblings, etc.

Can I call you Todd?

Well, PD, it looks like you sure fired up the troops with the latest rant. You done good, real good.

Before you posted your rant I was thinking how much abuse President Bush, Vice President Cheney and Secretary Rumsfeld endure, yet they persevere in the face of it. What motivates them? It's certainly not the money; all of them made lots more money in the private sector. They've all lived lives of achievement before 2000, so it's not that either. It has to be their sense of duty and love of their country that drives them.

I know a lot of us keep these men in our prayers, but we all need to make a special effort to thank the Lord for them and continue to lift them up in prayer.

Actually, this is exactly the character that continues to make our country great. Those that have been in the USA the longest have always tried to keep as much of it as they can to themselves, and rightly so. It's human nature, regardless of race. I have never been one to compare our culture and destiny to Rome's. I always hold on to the hope that the best is yet to come.
After skimming though thousands of posts on this thread for the last two days, yours was well worth stopping at and taking the time to read. It truly inspired me and refreshed my hope for America.

Thank you and God Bless America, no matter what size or shape her future holds.

"We have opposing parties. The Republicans vs the RINOs. Hopefully, someday, we'll have enough Republicans to overpower both the RINOs and their Democrat accomplices."

Your optimism is touching, even reassuring, but it would be even more encouraging and more credible if you are willing to match it with action. You have been repeatedly asked to lead a debate to improve a proposed plan to restore the Constitution or put forward a better one with an even greater chance to restore the Constitution. So far, you have not only completely ignored these requests, but you also have done so without any explanation of why you are apparently not willing to consider it. One begins to wonder whether your committment to restoring the Constitution has been replaced by a committment to keep the Republicans in power even at the expense of the continued growth of government and the continued expansion of socialism.

Have you forgotten that the growth of government is at the expense of our freedoms? When Ronald Reagan picked up the torch of freedom in 1964 with these words, "We have come to a time for choosing; we will preserve for our children this the last best hope for man on earth, or we will sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness.....history will record with the greatest astonishment that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening," he wasn't concerned about enemies abroad, terrorists, or illegal immigrants. He knew that the greatest threat faced by any people who desire freedom is their own government and the people within it who hold the levers of power. Yes, to a degree it does matter which party controls the agenda as it has an effect on the shape of a bill or when it will reach the floor for a vote, but when the vote actually takes place, it is not which party that casts the vote that matters, it is only the vote itself. It doesn't matter whether it was a Democrat or a Republican who cast a vote to expand government or to increase socialism. The results are the same. The current Republican President and "our" Republican controlled Congress worked together to pass the largest expansion in socialism in forty years and they did it over opposition from the rank and file of their own party.

Look at the plan Jim. It is specifically targeted, first at RINOs and then at Democrats. It is designed specifically to move both parties to the right a little bit in each and every successive election. This is a plan that can rapidly develop momentum and begin to achieve more of its goals in every subsequent election. It is not about turning power over to the Democrats so Americans can hopefully see how bad they really are. After the Senate impeachment trial fiasco and Newt's departure, "Republican leadership" has been an oxymoron. Republicans are simply going with the political flow. In complete contrast, this is a plan designed to lead the country back to its Constitutional roots at every level.

In his 1964 speech, President Reagan repeated Plutarch's warning, "The real destroyer of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations and benefits." The distilled wisdom of the wise men from more than two thousand years of history is that all democracies end in bankruptcy or hyperinflation whenever the public learns to vote itself benefits. Gokhale and Smetters have provided ample evidence that this is the fate of the United States unless we quickly abandon socialism. History says that only a couple of governments have survived sovereign default. With fiat currencies, sovereign default is not a consideration. Not one has ever survived hyperinflation. George W. Bush is the forty-third President of the United States. Barring death or assassination, Gokhale's and Smetter's projections tell us there may not be a forty-sixth.

If you listen carefully, you can still hear the immortal words of Ronald Reagan speaking to you Jim.

Excuse my ignorance, but why is there so much activity attached to a vanity post by a guy who calls himself "Pukin Dog?"

He wrote a vanity designed to flush out trolls (broadly defined as those insufficiently loyal to the GOP on various policies) so the moderators could ban them. The moderators put this vanity in Breaking News, despite management's policy against vanities.

Given that he's been bragging about how many trolls he's bagged, it seems a fair assessment.

You don't have anything to say about HOW to bring winning, conservative principles back into the GOP.

See you at the polls, insult-monger.

Brilliant. Hillary loves your attitude. She'll be glad to give you the opportunity to say, "I told you so."

Wrong whaaababy, that is not President Bush' plan. He doesn't want amnesty, he wants a Guest Worker program. Why should I go over and fight the wolfpack. You must feel right at home in those loser threads.

Now you support the President on the war don't you? You do support him on Iraq don't you or are you a Dino? You do love Capitalism more than Communism don't you?

Pray for W and Our Troops

Some of the Walk on Water Conservatives long for the days of clinton and minority status. You don't have to lead or compromise when your out of power.

Have you seen Bush say he will veto any bill that has amnesty? Have you seen any statement from the White House that the amnesty provisions in the just-passed Senate Bill are unacceptable?

Bush's signature on a bill is functionally the same as assenting to the provisions in it.

Thanks Grandma Pam.

Its been a blast, I must say. Have you ever seen more effective troll bait? If want to catch a few Rats, you have to set out some cheese, then sit back and watch the fun.

When the hammer falls, you are going to be shocked by some of the folks you might have never suspected of trying to damage Free Republic, but you will know by their sudden absence.

No hunting for me today though, I'm going fishing.

Actually it is the most important thread that has been on FR, and that is saying alot. Perhaps the Bushaters have a problem with it, but they can go start their own FR the internet is a big place.
