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

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.

Jim cannot be a back-stabber of the conservative cause, because, and I pause here for you so please read this really slow so you will understand:

Rudy is NOT a Conservative, no way, no how, not in this lifetime.

He is a liberal.

[Night Hides Not]

IBTZ! IMHO, it's a bit early to be jumping off the ledge. Everybody jumped in too early, thanks to the 24/7 news cycles. The only attention I'm paying to is the probable candidacy of Fred Thompson. Other than that, I'm munching on popcorn until after Labor Day.

I find the Giuliani bashing threads pretty stupid. They are repeats of the immigration threads that got us Pelosi/Reid.

Pray for W and Our Troops

[Maigrey]

Dude, not good to tick off the Jim.

[theDentist]

Do you really think Rudy Giuliani is Conservative?

[Eva]

I almost got banned back in 2000 for posting something negative about John McCain. That is, until I showed that it was a matter of Congressional record that John McCain was accused of raping the wife of another POW.

Maybe like Junior Soprano he can write a letter to VP Cheney.

[P-40]

I like Jim. Don’t care much for Rudy though. :)

[pissant]

Good grief. It must suck to go through life as a drama queen.

If you don’t like conservatives that don’t like liberals, may I suggest the Log Cabin Republicans or Republicans for Choice.

[azhenfud]

AIIBTZ?

[missnry]

Everyone - just calm down! I just want everyone to know:
RUDY GULIANNIE IS NOT A CONSERVATIVE!
He never has been and never will be! He is a pro gay, pro abortion candidate who is in chameleon mode to get elected!

[Admin Moderator]

MAKE MY DAY. BAN ME. I DARE YOU.

Oh my, aren't we the Drama Queen today.

[Jim Robinson]

Rudy is part of the conservative movement? Since when? Do you even know what the conservative movement stands for? Do you have any idea whatsoever how much damage Rudy is doing to the conservative movement?

You and people like you are just plain ignorant.

Buh bye.

[TigersEye]

The tent isn’t big enough for far left liberals? Yea, that’s real rational. ROTFLOL

[Politicalmom]

Drat. I wanted you to leave his account up just to torture him. Heeeheeheee

[roses of sharon]

Yep, its every man for himself now.

But on the bright side a Hillary/Obama Administration, along with a Pelosi/Reid will be entertaining, and quite hilarious!

Not to mention Bill Clinton as First Lady, lolololololol, I can't wait!!

[advertising guy]

water and oil....you declare in the hopes Jim changes or backs down ? We said no way in a zillion ways and for a zillion reasons.....you lose this one on principle

[Lee'sGhost]

It’s not the supporting of Rudy . . . it’s the Brownshirt tactics.

[ex-snook]

Rudy’s candidacy should have a partial-birth abortion. Both you and he will understand what happens when you are not wanted.

[TChris]

Hey, Al, maybe it isn't Giuliani. Maybe it's you that caused all the difficulty. Did ya ever stop to think that maybe you're just a selfish whiner?

Just a thought.

Of course, you could always go start your own forum. That way, you could post any darned ol' thing you want. Wouldn't that be great?
