Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?

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?

No, I think what they mean is that many Freepers are registered on other sites using their FR monikers.

I was down in the dumps a few weeks ago at the diminished level of civility in here and Howlin suggested that I check out MadIvan's site, and she innocently welcomed me to register over there...where Freepers who were harrassed and berated for our moderate positions could engage one another.

I did...using my same moniker.

They have a sidebar indicating who's currently logged in, etc.. and I noticed familiar names right away.

ha! you must be the minister of information (:

like posting to a bunch 0f 12 years olds....

"No purge but lots of successful kamikazis choosing to leave in “glorious outrages and opera.”

With all due respect, it's been a purge (or cleansing, or pruning). As Allegra said, it's all semantics. ;-)

It's also been a loss to the Free Republic community at large. I mourn their loss, especially those conservatives that left in protest. Perhaps I'm a kamikazi, too...

“That would require common decency!”

Let’s keep the yard markers on the same mark. You didn’t have the common decency to respond to my posts last night that were in response to your unsolicited comments to me.

“Are you saying that members of FR are kept tabs on? FR knows what other sites I’m a member of? And when I joined? I had no idea that was possible.”

Where did I ever say that? Individual members of this forum don’t speak or act in any official capacity for FR. If I go over to the other sites I do it on my own accord and it has nothing to do with FR.

I agree, There are better candidates. Fred Thompson is one of my favorites. My fear is like there was in 1996. I hope Fred Thompson wins. I refuse to outcast a man who could win though. Can’t we positively pursue a winner and support them rather than spend energy demoralizing someone who could be the nominee? Many have myths about Giuliani’s past. I also think that each state has the say in many of the social issues that will not be affected the presidency. Also do you have the name of judges he nominated to NY state that won that are so liberal?

Of course, ultimately there are better candidates.

have fun kiddies.....
I’m off

[JCEccles]

It's been a healthy pruning.

Vigorous, new growth is already evident.

[muleskinner]

Then why do they keep their anti-FReeper thread private? FReepers who I trust completely have seen the caches of it and assure me that it is as bad as any of us say. Regardless, Howlin made a post on FR saying that conservatives have their "foot on the throat of Republicans." Is THAT acceptable to you?

Teacher! Johnny just put a Pill Bug down my back, yanked on my pig tail, and called me a name!

Where is Quidam when you need him?

[DCPatriot]

LOL! She used the ruler on your knucles, huh?

I know that she unilaterally stopped posting but kept her account open...where once in awhile she could Freepmail some of us.

All of a sudden, I noticed her account was banned and terminated this morning....I don't know what happened.

Rudy evil? I don’t think so

If you don't think killing unborn babies is evil, or removing age of consent laws so predators can have access to children - both of which are verifiably causes Ghouliani has championed, then your idea of evil and mine are so far removed that we can not have a conversation. If you persist in discarding the documentation (often posted here) so as to avoid confronting his immorality, then again there is no common ground for conversation.

“wow Im glad to know what is going on....It sounds almost like the boys clubhouse is mad at the girls clubhouse”

You ought to know since you joined WA six days ago. Having fun? Are you one of the “special ones” who got into the secret “clubhouse” room over there?

[Lady Jag]

Thank you. That's nice of you to say.

How's that conundrum coming along?

[EternalVigilance]

MPL is responsible for her own actions.

And, Gray Davis wasn’t “impeached” that I’m aware of. He was recalled...which, by the way, was a joint effort of many, many people.

If you search my posts you will also see some cut and paste quotes, and you will come across other freepers posts of the same stuff on this thread. You can also just read some of the recent posts that will direct to the site, it is the Darwin one.

“Ive found it quite pleasant,the sun is shining,the trees are budding, the birds are chirping....Why do you ask?”

Because I can.

[Lady Jag]

You kids can handle it.

I feel safer now.
