This is what I "undertand":

Surely you can understand that Jim is trying to save our country from the likes of Rudy Giuliani?
Oh, I understand Jim Rob's motives. And I believe those ideals and philosophies to be laudable and commendable.

However, this ex-foreign national former armed-forces participant, has a great reservation in all this.

If "they" be FOR Guilliani, McNumbNuts, and Romney, then who are WE? If THAT's the epitome of the Republican Party, then who the hell are WE? And just what are we actually DOING here? Except wasting bandwidth.

If I was a Democrat, I'd be that. Heck, I'm a naturalized foreign national that's going through serious mid-life crises of financial hardship. If I was a Republican then that's what I'd be, except that I loath the Republicans since they broke their Contract with America.

Thankfully I don't have to deal with too many of those kinds of people.

Except for back when Pat Buchanan was a candidate. I knew who he was, what he stood for ideologically, philosophically and theologically. What did the booney-rafters here at FreeRepublic have to say about him? I was a staunch supporter.

I'm still posting.

I posted why I could not vote for Bush & Cheny the first time, and I'm still posting now.

There was that conservative black candidate. I voted for hiom, and I said so. I'm still posting.

I've gotten into various doctrinal debates with other "Christians", and I'm still posting.

I've had knock down drag down fights with evolution proponents, I'm still posting.

There was a huge imbroglio that I was involved in that resulted in my banning (oh, you didn't know I was banned?), because I was the epitome of Christian conduct. I really don't want to talk about that because its a quite ugly side of myself, and I'd rather that it just remains in the muck somewhere where that part of me belongs. Look, I could keep going on and on and on about this or that, or something else that went on at FreeRepublic.

Recently I had a reflection of a scene of the movie Hamburger Hill where the guys were getting on each others throats, and here comes the line:

Now come on, what's going on here? Who are we? We're the Screaming Eagles, we FINISH FIGHTS we don't start 'em.
Very poignant comment made by the NCIOC to the newsman that is so totally pertainent today. Anyways, I digress...

So what's going on here today?

What? Did all the Republicans desert FreeRepublic en masse? Don't you feel badly for the Libertarians? What a choice: stay here, or go there.

I've raised the issue in a recent thread concerning Romney's Mormon roots (a theology thread) whereby the decision needs to be made at one point or another if the planks that are supporting one of the two parties are indeed the planks that each one severally and indivually agree with.

I believe its time for a message to be sent to those parties that be, then now is the time to do it. Quite frankly I believe that the "republic" is history, but its a worthy concept to be resurrected.

Quite frankly, I do not see a great distinctive difference between the political policies of GWB & the xClinoon. In fact I believe that xClintoon is probably envious of what GWB accomplished on his watch.

Let me tell you somtething: Hillary Clintoon, or Obama Bin Osama, Johnny - Channeler - Edwards, Al - Ozone - Gorked (or whatever stooges they choose to run this country), will not destroy it.

But one thing certain, is that we - as a collective community of like minded conservatives - don't have much time left. I shudder the thought of living through 8 years of Democrat psychosis.

So if we're not with "them", and we're against the "losers", then who are WE?

The message to send until that gets sorted: vote U.S. Constitution Party.

P.S. I'M STILL POSTING. So are you guys, just not here.
