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?
Will you support Rudy if he wins the nomination? Will you support Rudy and Fred Thompson if Fred is the top of the ticket.
That disengages the entire thing and shouldn’t be answered because the effort should be made to make sure that the question never becomes a reality. Most don’t fall for the trap because what it does is emboldens the Rudy supporters putting someone in a no win situation. If you answer yes, then you will be characterized as a Rudy supporter, and if you answer no, you will be tagged as a Hillary supporter. Niether tag is a good one.
I am with you on that one...the amount of spleen was amazing.
Hiya JW :)

Good! ;-)
**snerk!**
I'd like to see the proof....instead of just believing everything typed on the internet...
Exactly. Why I have been encouraging people to stop with the what ifs...and make that scenario not the reality.
Ive found it quite pleasant,the sun is shining,the trees are budding, the birds are chirping....Why do you ask?
Now you’re the bad boy today, CM...all the other boys is behavin’ themeselves, and you gotta go color on the wall....
ROFL!
Okay, I wasn’t attacking anyone. I have no problem with questions, answers, debates and alike. I never shriek.
Now you know why I need the shotgun! LOL!
Will you leave?
Or will you kick them right out the door?
Maybe the problem is you've confused a web site with your house
You just correctly stated the reasons for us to be allies. You foresee that an attack against Christianity is ultimately going to lead to an attack on what you hold dear.
Politics is a secular endeavor. We use our faith to form and advocate for what we believe politically, but that’s where it ends. I often argue that the best Christians are too busy leading their lives and enriching others to really care about it beyond voting.
My main issue is guns, not abortion. Though I believe in God and His protection, I strongly support the right to defend oneself.
Waiting for those links ansel12, put them up....
If the headline tomorrow is, "Bush bombs Iran," are you going to claim that it's 'dishonest' unless Bush himself flew the plane? The kind of Clintonian parsing you're engaging in here makes you look like some flat-footed clown.
Of course. It was MPL, who is (or at least was at the time) authorized to do such things in Keyes' name. Please do not play the game of pretending that you do not know who "MPL" is. Anyone who has been anywhere near the Keyes organization knows who MPL is. Also do not pretend that I'm saying that MPL herself wrote a bunch of PHP code and ftp'd it onto a web server. No more Clintonian parsing, OK? As the lawyers would say, the Keyes organization "built, or caused to be built," a web site purporting to aid the Gray Davis impeachment effort.
Regardless of what is posted over there today, Howlin assured me that WA is in NO WAY, an anti-Freeper site.
Bottom line, I believe her.
I hope in time, some of them return.
