We've got some real challenges facing us. FR was established to fight against government corruption, overstepping, and abuse and to fight for a return to the limited constitutional government as envisioned and set forth by our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and other founding documents.
One of the biggest cases of government corruption, overstepping and abuse that I know of is its disgraceful headlong slide into a socialist hell. Our founders never intended for abortion to be the law of the land. And they never intended the Supreme Court to be a legislative body. They never intended God or religion to be written out of public life. They never intended government to be used to deny God's existence or for government to be used to force sexual perversions onto our society or into our children's education curriculum. They never intend for government to disarm the people. They never intended for government to set up sanctuary cities for illegals. They never intended government to “rule” over the people and or to take their earnings or private property or to deprive them of their constitutional rights to free speech, free religion, private property, due process, etc. They never intended government to seize the private property of private citizens through draconian asset forfeiture laws or laws allowing government to take private property from lawful owners to give to developers. Or to seize wealth and redistribute it to others. Or to provide government forced health insurance or government forced retirement systems.
All of the above are examples of ever expanding socialism and tyranny brought to us by liberals/liberalism.
FR fights against the liberals/Democrats in all of these areas and always will. Now if liberalism infiltrates into the Republican party and Republicans start promoting all this socialist garbage, do you think that I or FR will suddenly stop fighting against it? Do you think I'm going to bow down and accept abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, global warming, illegal alien lawbreakers, gun control, asset forfeiture, socialism, tyranny, totalitarianism, etc, etc, etc, just so some fancy New York liberal lawyer can become president from the Republican party?
Do you really expect me to do that?
Great post, Chena.
Hope all is well with you. :)
Yeah!! What she said!
An evolutionist. Someone who supports the theory of evolution.
If you want to get a flavor of those threads, enter the keyword of evolution and you’ll get those threads and see why so many people avoid them.
Yes - because both rabid evolutionists and rabid creationists tend to be unreasonable to the opposite view point.
I avoid them like the plague. :)
“I tell ya what, Republicans had better agree to disagree on a few issues and stop these flame wars or they are going to hand the Democrats...”
It’s very early in the primary season. It’s too early to agree to disagree. It will be an important primary and then an important general...I like 2 candidates in the field, but my hopes are with Fred Thompson. He is conservative and can pull in the other factions of the Party. This is normal for all of this stuff to play out. Friends and online buddies are going to disagree and choose sides.
LOL!
Um, no. I’ve read some of what you guys have said about me.
nice group /sarc
LOL. I just have a detecting instinct. I will apologize if I am incorrect on this. You must be another FRiend of NC. I see another freeper has vouched for her too. You have to admit, the mistype does raise eyebrows.
Brings back a blast from the past
“You are asking to be attacked by the “true” conservatives. They’re not interested in debate or compromise.”
I find it ironic that many of the same “true” conservatives you mock are waiting for your guy Fred Thompson to get in the race.
Hey, you never know who the hyenas will eat when they get hungry enough.
It was an interesting mistype, but thats all it was. Yes, I know both of them. Different people, different genders, different states, original sign-up dates 2 years apart, etc.
aw come on metmom
you know that anyone religious enough to have principles and stand up for them is a dangerous radical!
Just ask Rosie
Thank you, bonfire. :)
You’re really Brother Maynard, aren’t you?
Well, telling another poster that he's not entitled to state his opinion on FR because he's not publicly listed as a dollar a day member seems a bit low to me. The poster may be an anonymous donor. Either way, donating is not a requirement for posting to FR.
Thanks
OK, OK, Ok. I apologize to new cruelty. I see you have plenty of FRiends to vouch for you.
