Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?
vanity | April 21, 2007 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 04/21/2007 6:42:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

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?

Freepers who wear black socks before Labor day?

They were banned long ago. As if Jim would allow such cretins on his site!

Bless your heart, KAC.

Certainly didn't mean to offend your Catholicism. I could have use Southern Baptist or Presbyterian.

Maybe I should have said 'blue-collar' Catholics. {{{ducks}}}

Ones that put their forty hours in (attends Mass and receives the Sacraments)but that's all.

Those are the kind of strident conservatives that Rudy will need if he is the candidate of the GOP.

Ones that realize some things are worse than dying.

Dying's easy.

Keeping that pantsuit out of the Oval Office...that's real hard...without the help of BlueDog type Consevatives.

Then why was John O'Neill hired in the first place? Not to mnetion many of the firms in the WTC had their own internal security which handled their evacuation plans. Why go to all that trouble and expense if it was the city's responsibility, hmmmm?

Nice try to you, too!

Why don't you stop?

Chena couldn't be more clear that he isn't a Rudybot and yet you continue to harass and stalk him.

OMG! Are you kidding?! As I said elsewhere, I have no control over how you interpret what I say, but if you feeeeeel that I am threatening (As opposed to offering some FRiendly advice) then hit the abuse button and let the Mods sort it out.

I like the FRiendly advice herding folks to the holy bugzapper, and laying the blame on the moderators.

This is like some weird 70s movie.

“The bans have essentially stopped because all of the FRiberals have been rooted out.”

Not even close, many are still on this thread although temporarily more restrained, and they are all over the rest of FR.

Herding bugs? Nah. They're uncontrollable. Once they get the light in their eyes, they're going in no matter what you do.

The sun is setting on another day of rebellion. Men and women are reeling in pain, humiliated ..separated from family and friends. The skirmish is almost over, recriminations readied.

Thankfully there was no bloodshed and no lives lost in Cyber City.

In Iraq the U.S.Death count reached 3,333.

It wouldn’t be so hard for me to consider that if I didn’t think the Rudemeister wasn’t her twin in all the ways that count...

“A foe to God was never a true friend to man.”

I do think, that is at the root of the problems being addressed on this thread.

“Right now you say it’s because of Rudy supporters, but what’ll it be next week - Freepers who wear black socks before Labor day?”

Well, it may be FReepers who’ve made the mistake of mentioning in some post or another that they’re divorced, or that they voted for some Liberal back when they first got out of high school, or anything else the Guardians-of-all-things-Conservative here can find that will enable them to call someone a “liberal asswipe” and make themselves feel superior.

Oh, it is. But bringing it up infuriates them. They’ll start calling you nazis and stuff.
