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?

Third parties are for losers.
That's why we don't want the GOP to make itself into one.

*BINGO*

So why are you still here?

In case you missed your ping and the post, I was interested in your thoughts on this...

[crude77]

Man, you and me both. Sober since 2-18-98. But man could I have gotten worked up over this thread.

For the record- I was willing to consider Rudy a few months ago, but as I have learned more about him, no how no way could I vote for Rudy.

[jedward]

Agreed!

[JCEccles]

The scientists among you have long since departed for Darwin Central.

A.k.a. ex-FReeper Densa Society.

The "scientists" among you are more insufferable and self-righteous than any fundamentalist Christian.

And they're not really all that bright.

Except for the fact that the Libertarian Party is against defending ourselves in the War on Terror, and the libertarians are typically pro-abortion, pro-gay rights, and pro-drugs, they fit right in here.

I have yet to hear them fully explain this part about the libertarian Party

They usually seem to dodge the question or change the subject

Gee .. I wonder why

>> you just can't make me feel unwelcome here

I, for one, want you to feel utterly welcome and I am prepared to back that up with cookies!

I do not offhand have a recipe for libertarian cookies but I'll bet I could find one. Rose Wilder Lane must have had cookie recipes, and you can't get much more libertarian than she. I'll see what I can find. Rand? Never. Isabel Paterson? Dunno, but she doesn't seem the type. The search for other libertarian women cookie bakers took me here. Does not seem to be cookie country either.

The next libertarian cookie report will be out any day now, whenever it's ready or we find some cookie news.

1) Sure. But, we already have mountains of material with this guy, more than enough to convince any reasonable Republican that he’s a stonecold Leftist. The real trick is making sure the Republican electorate receives the truth about him, 5x5.

2) Use Google. Anyone who is willing to look objectively, and very closely, at any one of these candidates has the ability right at their fingertips.

3) It depends.

4) No reason to lock it, IMO.

[EternalVigilance]

I’ll give you a hearty AMEN on that one! :-)

They have even less of that.

You owe me a keyboard. ;-)

Thanks for the feedback!

“Over 70% of FReepers have said they will vote 3rd party, stay home, leave blank or write-in a name. “

That 70% only translates to a little over 3500 people ... it’s not that large of a number

Third party 42.3% 2,180
The Rep liberal 25.7% 1,324
Write-in 15.6% 806
Stay home 10.1% 519
The Dem liberal 4.2% 215
Leave blank 2.2% 111

[T'wit]

Gee, thanks, I did so want to have another look! :-) :-)

Is that Darwin Central, by the way?

[Reagan Man]

Now you're using Howlin`s logic. LOL

Falls flat, pilgrim, just like your head.
