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?
I'm deeply saddened.
You got a streak going?
bttt.
I feel so much better knowing how much you care.
Yep....12000 and 13000...I think I got 2000 way back yonder too...but I’m aiming for 20,000
Dow 13,000
Are we at a top?
Mornin’ BIGLOOK!!!
I just woke up so I have nothing coherent to say...yet. (not that I’m EVER that coherent....)
You asked good questions.... ;)
You other two? Stay outta trouble, now, will ya? ;)
ROFLMBO!! YOU could NEVER tick me off! :-)
I'm so glad. I can't tell you how much I want you to have a glorious day in the Lord.
Snicker? Try a loud guffaw!
That would be nice if it weren’t so fake and smarmy.
His IDEALS and BELIEFS are what we're having a hard time with...I don't WANT stuff that he believes in..in the White House.
Why don't you show some courage and tell us all how you really feel?
I think I just did.
Ok kids - am I going to have to separate you two??
**I had JUST said that to my two kids when I read your series of posts so I just HAD to say it! LOL!!!!**
You just woke up? I hope when I’m a grammy I can be that lazy.
:-D
Love ya Grammy!
No ma’am. I’m fine, thank you.
No, I want to know how you really feel about the renewed sense of committed conservatism that is being promoted here at Free Republic. Your feelings about me are irrelevent.
Bump THAT!
“I don’t believe that Rudy can win Texas, among several other red states. So, even if he does pick up a blue state or two, what does it matter? The “but Rudy can win” crowd never seem to take into account the red states that he would lose.”
You are so right.
The whole sales pitch for Giuliani is that, sure conservatives would stay home, but the moderate Republicans would make up for that by winning a lot of moderate Democrat voters.
Sounds to me as though it would be a blood bath for all the offices below President.
Even if we woke up in 2008 with our most liberal Republican President in history, there would be nothing below him but the broken pieces of a once powerful conservative movement.
Democrats would win massive new gains at every level with narrow (and larger) majorities.
Him taking charge of the Republican party would end, and bury the Reagan Revolution.
