JIM ROBINSON AS THE NEW JOSEPH FARAH - STABBING THE CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT IN THE BACK [Re:Giuliani]
On one the few rational minds left around here - but for long | 4/24/2007 | Al Simmons

Posted on 04/24/2007 10:22:39 AM PDT by Al Simmons

About me:

Lurker - since 1998

Member - since 1999

In self-imposed exile - since April 2007

The tone of the debate and the attacks on long-time fellow Freepers for the cardinal sin of daring to support Rudy Giuliani in early 2007 around here have really saddened me. Instead of fighting the enemy FR is now imposing an 'ideological purity' test on FR members. The well-oiled train has gone off the rails and Mr. Robinson risks becoming the next Joe Farah - a fellow who started a great website for conservative news and opinions, but who gradually drifted off to la-la land, losing all credibility - and readership - in the process.

He has set himself squarely in the Internet media spotlight, doused himself with gasoline, and and lighted himself on fire - a fact that has not escaped the attention of the left-wing lunatics at Daily Kos. Their reporting on what has been going on at FR is perhaps the first factually true account published on their site.

Jim, if that quote of yours about setting up an organization to 'Swiftboat Rudy' is accurate as quoted in their article, the only thing I have to say to you is that you ought to be ashamed of yourself, as you have now become the back-stabber of the conservative cause.

If you wish to marginalize this site by turning it into a narrow "several-issue" forum, that is your right. Just as it is my right to choose to not participate here any longer.

But you will be disappointed if you think that the crude, illiterate "goon squad" you have allowed free rein around here (dmw, narses, dirtboy, extremely extreme extremist, ReaganMan and several others - if I have slighted anyone, please email me if you want onto this list) will elevate the level of intellectual debate.

The result has been predictably in the other direction. That is what happens when you hire a bunch of brown shirts to enforce your own brand of political correctness.

Well, guess what? Politics is 99% BS and one can quite nicely live one's life without the need to bloviate about it. I know how I am going to vote. I could care less about anyone else. Life is too short to waste my time around here when I am clearly one of those made to feel like they are not welcome.

So, go ahead Jim -

MAKE MY DAY. BAN ME. I DARE YOU.

Because Rudy is a liberal. that’s why we tear him down. So he LOSES in the primary.

How about before the primaries, STFU, back the guy you like, don't be a whiny b!tch if he gets hammered for his liberal policies, and stop telling us who we have to vote for in order to beat Hillary.

Awright! But maybe it ain't gonna be Hillary we gotta beat? Look for Gore on the ticket ... global warming a big issue.

as you have now become the back-stabber of the conservative cause.

How in the F#ck is taking out a liberal socialist who is ideologically aligned with Hillary Clinton and posing as a Conservative stabbing conservatives in the back?

Oh, that's right, if you don't vote party over principle you are stabbing the principles in the back.

You are a retard.

Oh, and what good is it to beat Hillary by electing a guy wearing her clothes?

(You are probably too stupid to get the Shakespeare reference, let alone understand my point.)

......... a victory for Guiliani might be a victory for the Republican party, or what will be left of it, but it will not be a victory for Conservatives or America.............

Joe, I note that you are from North Dakota, but did you and your family ever travel to NYC before Rudy, or during Rudy??

No, not Rudy after 9/11; but Rudy when he was tasked to transform himself from the DA to the mayor; deal with a totally unmanageable city/state; take on the gangs,pimps,street,homeless,welfare,squeegies,taxes,corporations,bloated city government???

Yeah, Rudy got some prominence from the 9/11 mayorship, but you gotta check out his pre 9/11 creds!

Ok, so he had to be a big city realist re gun control with murder all around him, abortion, social issues, but he sure got NYC turned around: it’s crime infested unmanageable city became a entity of the past.

I can’t name a politician during the past sixty years with his balls!

Julie-Annie is a liberal...

I ain't votin' for him. He is the one who would stab the conservatives in the back (as he has done in the past).

..as I said, there is a such a sense of fear out there at the prospect of a Hillary Clinton presidency...

It is, IMO, an irrational fear. And it doers not justify their persecution of others who see Rudy as another Hillary type RINO.

...they’re convinced Giuliani is the man to lead that war.

He has less military experience than most of the other candidates. He was on his way out when 9/11 occurred, leaving office 3 1/2 months later.

Now 6 + years later, after being on the lecture circuit and making millions talking about it, we're supposed to ignore his record, pretend he's not a liberal, and jump on the bandwagon?

Is it any wonder the emotions have gotten out of control? All of their thinking appears to be made emotionally,with little regard to logic.

Good grief, dude, is there anything else about FR that you'd like to change?

Good one. There is no pleasing some people.
