I do realize that management at FR does not support Ron Paul. That’s their right after all. Their political view shouldn’t have any influence on mine. As a matter of fact, their mission statement so to speak is -
Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We’re working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America. And we always have fun doing it. Hoo-yah!
Admittedly, I am not an independent but I am a conservative. I also don’t consider myself a fool - that of course, is in the eyes of the beholder though. :)
My point is that none of the other Republican candidates are vilified to the point Ron Paul is, and those who support him. It’s not a matter of arguing points or his position, just a lot of name calling. I find that very odd for this board.
