You really have NO idea what that term means and you just proved it!

Words and terms have specific meanings; meaning set in stone and no, you may NOT purloin any word and phrase and then make up your own definition for it.

Your victimhood gets rather old.

Apparently you aren't aware (I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt) that:

1) Jim has called those of us who support Rudy treasonous. We've responded in kind.

2) Jim last night was throwing around the most heated rhetoric last night that any right thinking person should disassociate himself with.

3) If you find it all so tiring, instead of suggesting we leave, why don't you stop reading for a while.

4) And if Jim wants us gone, he can ban us. It's that simple.

5) I'm kind of sick and tired of posts like yours that basically tell us we're all to march in lockstep with YOUR views and YOUR social positions.

Good Republicans, staunch Republicans like Sen. Brownback and Rep. Sessions, Ted Olson, Michael Reagan, Newt Gingrich, Bill Simon, Pat Robertson have either said they think Rudy would be a good president, or they've endorsed him or said they think he should be supported.

Compromise with each other? You mean the conservatives should give in to the those among us who wish to support a woman's right to choose, gay rights, gun control, restrictions on free speech, insecure borders, etc, etc, ie, compromise with liberal positions which is exactly the same thing as compromising with liberals? Don't you see where your compromise is leading? Sorry, but some things are simply not open to debate, not open to negotiation and not open to compromise. I'll make my stand for God, country, family, life and Liberty! Thank you very much.

Well, I got my answer: your choice is failure in 2008, right?

FGS, that rant is just boilerplate and solves nor answers anything.

Actually, some are sent to the offender via "Freep Mail" saying "Knock it off!" (I know because well, I got one just once...but it was on a male-bashing FR feminazi thread, and I avoid those now LIKE THE PLAGUE! ;>)

Well, Im sorry I hit abuse ...I thought it was way out of line.

This whole thread leans sharply toward the emotional arena

Even though the subject matter is X-rated, FR is not.

Yes, it pains many that Jim isn't following y'all into RINO hell, doesn't it.

I don't think they go to hell. Probably a communal graveyard, like the mainstream Republican elephants.

I've been on the phone, and lost track of the thread, but I'm pretty sure I saw a post where one of them admitted "The Grifter" means JR. Hmm...

I'll check back later, and see how the thread's going.

Cooler heads will prevail.

Doubtful.

This will only continue to get uglier.

Giuliani will lose (I believe) based on his positions, but the level of discourse around here has deteriorated severely...

And the first primaries are still almost a year away.

If you bothered to read your pings, I already explained it to you, and proven to you your confused and wrong.

I didn't know that. I wonder how they decide who will be publically disciplined and who will be given a private slap on the wrist. My best guess is probably the right one. LOL ;)

Jim......

Compromising within the base simply means that we agree to disagree on some relevant issue, but will come together for the general, for the good of the party and the welfare of the country.

The fact is, there are not enough of us otherwise and no good will be done, and the welfare of the country will be at risk with democrats controlling.

It is common sense, and the very definition of politics that guide politics, not calling every issue a principle and refusing to do anything but fight and destroy our party from within.

Politics is, and has alway meant "the art of compromise" It is what it is, and cannot be something else. We have definitions for those things as well, and they are something that we do not approve of. They being, Aristocracy, Autocracy, Theocracy, and a few others like Dictatorships.

The truth is, that without a coalition of the differing views in the Conservative family of belief's, we cannot win. We will not win.
