Free Republic does not and will not support RINOS!! Not now!! Not ever!!

My day after Thanksgiving message | 11/26/200 | Jim Robinson

[Jim Robinson]

Apparently there are still some posters on FR who are fast asleep. Wake up! Dammit! We are in the middle of a conservative rebellion! While you were sleeping we, along with millions of other freedom loving grassroots Americans have participated in hundreds of tea parties all across this great land and fully intend to keep it up until all of America is awake. We are fed up and mad as hell! We grassroots Americans are delivering a message to the ruling class: NO MORE!!

No more big government! No more high taxes! No more government bailouts! No more government takeovers! No government healthcare! No more corruption! No more global baloneyism!!

We're sick and tired of liberals and RINOs running roughshod over our God given Liberty!

We want our country back! We want our freedom back! We want it all back!!

No more socialism!!

Cut the taxes! Cut the spending! Cut the government!

Restore the constitutional limits on government! Restore our freedom!!

And not only no, but HELL NO to liberals and RINOS!!

Free Republic will not support RINOS!! Rudy McRomney, et al, can go straight to hell!!

The strategy is we win, they lose.

Any questions?

[seekthetruth]

I certainly agree! No RINO’s for me!

Even though some here on FR may like some Republican candidates who are not real conservatives, if Freepers check them out they will come to realize who the RINO’s are. Those RINO leanings always show through.

We received yet another letter from Newt's team asking for donations to help them “recruit new conservative candidates”. I wrote back explaining that since Newt and the GOP/RNC like to back the likes of DeDe S***woman over Doug Hoffman, I will keep my money for donations to real conservatives of my choosing!

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving Day! Have a great weekend too! :)

I applaud your forthrightness. However, we, who are among the sincere friends of freedom, should remember Lord Acton's observation:

At all times sincere friends of freedom have been rare, and its triumphs have been due to minorities, that have prevailed by associating themselves with auxiliaries whose objects often differed from their own; and this association, which is always dangerous, has been sometimes disastrous, by giving to opponents just grounds of opposition, and by kindling dispute over the spoils in the hour of success. No obstacle has been so constant, or so difficult to overcome, as uncertainty and confusion touching the nature of true liberty. If hostile interests have wrought much injury, false ideas have wrought still more; and its advance is recorded in the increase of knowledge, as much as in the improvement of laws.

We need to recognized that RINOs, especially those elected from hopelessly leftist states and congressional districts, and even the last honest 1960's-style liberals like Joe Lieberman, may well be among the auxiliaries with whom alliance is needed for freedom to advance, all the while remembering Acton's warning about possible disaster from such alliances.

But, if we’re gonna beat the hell out of them when they misbehave, doesn’t it just make good sense to praise or at least acknowledge their good behavior?

Not when it's overshadowed by the bad. And that's where we're at. They've jumped the shark. It's time to reel them in.

I’ve seen it said that some are kept for claw-sharpening purposes. There was one, MurreyMom (sp), that finallt got banned. They eventually cross the line or get on TPTB’s nerves and get the zot.

[Cedric]

If you pound them when they’re right and you pound them when they’re wrong, why the hell should they listen to you?

Freeper is a way to SHARE our wealth of information.

FR is a way to share information between Conservatives to advance the conservative cause.

As the site becomes more and more talked about, more “Libs’ will come on to lurk.

Socialists can lurk all they want so long as they don't register. They will soon be zotted as they have been in the past since they will be unable to hide their socialist views.

[MestaMachine]

“Name one.”

Arlen Specter, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, John McCain, (who DELIBERATELY threw the election,)George Voinovich, Joseph “Anh”Cao, Arnold the Shvartz, Chuck Hagel.....

Oh no, not the dreaded Ping Posse!

It's not us you need to be afraid of. It's the owner of this site that you dissed that has the power.

[Notary Sojac]

Nobody from the large group that Jim represents is in a mood to negotiate, reach across the isle, or have anything to do with those considered enemies of conservatism. We're FINISHED with those best of the worst GOP picks which have been mentioned throughout this thread.

Can't say I disagree. But I voted third party or write-in in 2000, 2004, and 2008 because in my opinion the Republican candidate was a reach-across-the-aisle RINO in each of those years. Would my advocacy of that position have been welcomed on FR?

The GOP nominating process is still front loaded with crossover primaries in liberal states. I'm prepared to walk away from the GOP candidate in 2012 if that process gives us another compromiser, and I trust that all the vocal posters on this thread will remember what they are committing to by what they say here today.

Scozzafava voted FOR gay marriage. Even da bam didn’t do dat.

Oh no, not the dreaded Ping Posse!

Let me see if I have this straight:
When YOU ping additional people it's alright, when I ping additional people it's a "dreaded Ping Posse"?

Is that about right?

If you'd like I can ping about 500 more people on my ping lists.

[Cedric]

John McCain...who DELIBERATELY threw the election

That is a ludicrous statement.

[BykrBayb]

Do you know how to ping someone when you talk about them? Do you have any idea what a ping is?

[Windflier]

I’m pulling up stakes and loading the wagon for Texas. California is a lost cause.

Whoa...

Boss, may I suggest the wonderful conservative environs of North Texas? Specifically Dallas - Ft. Worth?

Alright, North Texas FReepers. Tell the boss know why ours is the finest little corner of The Great State of Texas!

[bcsco]

If you pound them when they’re right and you pound them when they’re wrong, why the hell should they listen to you?

You completely miss the point. I don't expect them to listen to me. I expect them to patronize me to get elected, then continue with RINO determination once I've made the mistake of my listening to them.

I don't like them. I will never trust them again. I will never vote for them again. I will never watch a program on which they're a guest. They are anathema to me.

My views seem to be in consort with those that underpin this forum. If you disagree, then I suggest you take stock of your membership here. What you have to say falls on deaf ears.

[Cedric]

If you'd like I can ping about 500 more people on my ping lists.

Obviously, you sense that you're gonna need 'em all.

How is Pawlenty a “faux conservative”

There was one, MurreyMom (sp), that finallt got banned.

I missed out on the banning of that awful creature? Now I really am bummed. ;)

I think I remember MurreyMom. :-) Cedric is well on his way to hitting the road as well. He's resorted to short, one line, smart assed, personal jabs. It would be a welcome shift here in this thread to be able to zot him after being banned. :-)
