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?

I know. They keep mocking the "single issue voters" but the problem is that with RG, it's not a single issue. I could tolerate him leaning left on one of these issues. If he was pro-choice, but good on everything else, I could live with it. If he was pro-gun control but good on everything else, I could hold my nose and pull the lever for him against the Hildabeast.

But when the Republican candidate is pro-gun control, pro-abortion, and appoints lib judges, he becomes totally unpalatable. People keep saying that RG will put into play states not otherwise in play. Problem is, he loses the red states when he does that so what the bots are really suggesting is that, to win, RG has to run as a democrat and do a better job of it than the democrats themselves. You can't keep the base like that.

Would a professional erase his/her post becaue you pointed out the obvious?

Yes, but this is something that I have seen occur frequently. I was only making an observation/suggestion of an opinion I have held for some time. But it is a good thing that things like that are removed. Thanks.

If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.

I've never felt Lincoln to be quite the statesman history records him to be, but he did have a lot of wisdom, and this is some of it.

But the reality is you are more likely to lose your gun than get touched by a terrorist attack. Been a lot more cases of gun ownership restriction than terrorist attacks in number.

And if you lose your gun and a terrorist makes it through anyway, you lose a major tool in self-defense.

No such thing. They don't go hand in hand.

Hardly. There are many liberal Christian churches. Heck, I can't even recognize many Episcopaleans any longer.

But the liberal “christian” churches have ceased to be Christian. They are sort of like Rino’s - they keep the title but it has lost all meaning

I have a friend who calls that type Episcopagans. I found a book of love spells for sale once on the national website.
