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?

No, the real battle is the so called social issues. A country cannot continually turn its back on God, murdering millions of babies and expect God to keep blessing us. People want to know why things happen like the virginia massacre happen need look no further than the culture of death we have cultivated in this country.

"Abraham Lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a free land when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should therefore be slaves. Likewise, we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion or infanticide. My Administration is dedicated to the preservation of America as a free land, and there is no cause more important for preserving that freedom than affirming the transcendent right to life of all human beings, the right without which no other rights have any meaning."
-- President Ronald Reagan, 1983

I’m too young a freeper to do that myself. Hopefully someone else can step up to the plate on that. Not that I’m not willing, but it would be like a 20 year old writing an autobiography. :)

‘only need to take a good look at Europe”.

I have. That's what so unnerving. I don't want that for our great country.

Nope, sorry.

She made an accusation that was a personal attack. Just like “her” friends have done in the past.

I’m not looking for victory. He (Evening Star claims to be a man) need to retract his accusation.

I just posted my first pure vanity complaint thread a few days ago, and even though it was swamped by this thread, it actually got over 300 replies, which I guess is OK.

He predicted what we’re seeing now very well didn’t he.

I think FR makes a mistake in discouraging “vanities”. We have some excellent writers here and I’d just as soon be reading and discussing their op-eds as the LSM tripe we are presented.

Free the writers!

Hildy, if you believe that, I don't think "hate" means what you think it means. LOL The only issue that Liberals hate Giuliani's opinion on is the WOT, or any war for that matter.

What Hildy said was very true. The liberals hated Giuliani's guts when he was mayor and there are still quite a few who will still freak out if you mention his name now.

I don’t know why I thought ES was a female. It was stupid on my part to guess at gender.

I asked for my post to be removed, because of that and because I don’t want to stick my nose into this fight, other than to say backing away from a fight at this point sounds good to me.

I know a little more about science than you think my freeper adversary/friend.

If you are not careful, that science might ‘byte you square in the ass’

LOL ... when I type, there are no tap tap taps. It sounds like thunder!

I learned to type on an old WECO Teletype, Model 28 with about a half inch spring loaded drop on the keys and continued to use them for at least fifteen years. I can definitely identify with thunder on the keys.

IIRC, it was caused at least in part by cleaning up the smut palaces in Times Square.
