Unlike Romney's "National Council for a New America," Free Republic is a conservative site!

I'm going to try one more time to explain what FR is all about.

Free Republic is a conservative site. That does not necessarily mean it is a Republican site. In fact there may be many Republicans we don't support and some Republican issues we cannot agree with.

I'll throw in Arlen Specter as a prime example of a Republican we cannot support. Should be obvious to all why not. Should also be just as obvious to all that we cannot support Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, John McCain and his lap dog Lindsay Graham, Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, et al.

Some of the issues we cannot support as conservatives even though sometimes initiated by so-called Republicans include TARP, or any kind of government bailout of private enterprise, federal intrusion into free markets, federalized education systems, government provided or controlled health care systems, abortion, gay marriage, amnesty, global warming, gun control, etc.

I guess there is more than one definition of conservatism floating around out there, and this won't be text book, but the one we use involves defending, preserving and protecting our constitution, our unalienable rights, our traditional family values, our American heritage, our nation, our borders and our sovereignty.

We aggressively defend our rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness!

We aggressively defend our rights to freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom to keep and bear arms, right to due process, right to equality under the law, right to be governed under the rule of law, right to constitutionally limited government, right to corruption free government, right to self-government and our private property rights, etc.

We also aggressively defend our right to state and local government for all issues not expressly delegated to the central government by the constitution.

We aggressively defend our rights to free markets and our rights to live our lives free of government intrusion, interference, coercion, force, or abuse of any kind.

We aggressively defend our rights to national sovereignty, state sovereignty and individual sovereignty!

And this definition also includes aggressively fighting against all enemies foreign and domestic who may try to deprive us of our rights or sovereignty. This would obviously include all foreign enemies, but also we defend against RINOS, Democrats, liberals, socialists, Marxists, communists, militant feminists or homosexualists, radical environmentalists, etc, etc, etc.

And we expect our elected representatives to also aggressively defend our rights and fight against all enemies foreign and domestic. We do not elect people and send them to DC or our state capitals, etc, to reach across the aisles or to be bipartisan or to negotiate or compromise away our rights. If you're not going to aggressively fight for us, and for our rights, STAY OUT!!

We bow to no king but God!

Our God-given unalienable rights are NOT negotiable!

Do NOT Tread on US!

Thank you very much!

Sorry Skippy, I don’t tag-team. I don’t have any friends here and I sure as hell don’t want you to be the first!

It was a couple years ago now... the damage was already done. But it does serve as a lesson. Anytime I see the XYZ Organization giving our congressmembers a “rating” I always go look to see what it is they are using as a basis for the rating. ACU ratings are not exactly what most people would expect, either, if they looked under the covers.

“PS...If you’re a Mittwit, I’m not your friend”

I don’t think I am a wit or a bot but guess it would be best if you made your own determination based on my posts. Then you can decide if we can be friends, I ain’t mad at nobody .... how bout you.

I don’t think it is necessarily a slippery slope. The differences between Mormonism and mainstream Christianity are much more vast than just denominational differences.

I am not a Pentecostal but would fully support Palin for president.

I would have a hard time voting for a Conservative who was an atheist as well. Faith is a factor for me, and for many other conservatives, we want someone who shares our worldview.

For me, my allegiance to Christ comes before politics.

Where does it stop?

- - - - - - - - - -
At actual Christians. Those who adhere to common views of the Person, work and Nature of Jesus Christ.

That leaves out Mormons, JWs, and others who Christology is non traditional.

Just responding in kind, let it go, it will tear you up inside. Warning! Warning! this could be a trick, ANOTHER TROLL MAY BE POSTING AS WE SPEAK, you don’t want to miss a chance to launch another attack. Troll signing off for now. PS perhaps you should have me banished.

From this post and others you have posted you sound very confused.

Perhaps you can explain why you think FR should provide a forum for the spread of liberalism.

I want to apologized I was not aware of its real meaning I thought it was equivalent to the meaning of “put a sock in it!”

You seem to say a LOT of things that you do not know the meaning of...

Totally in agreement...on most points.
What we need is a conservative with b**ls. We will be forever at the mercy of Obama and his Marxist henchmen until the day we can come up with and rally support for the candidate who captures the public interest and makes patriotism politically popular again. In my opinion, there is NO ONE out there right now who can assume that mantle.We had ONE Ronald Reagan. May he rest in peace.
