Purpose of FR and why we can never support Mitt Romney
vanity | Oct 15, 2011 | Jim Robinson

Our purpose and goal on FR is to restore, defend, preserve and protect the Constitution of the United States and to secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity!!

The goal of the domestic enemy (the left), i.e., the statist liberals, Marxists and progressives is just the opposite.

The goal of the establishment RINO is to gain control of political power, but not to otherwise rock the boat. The boat continues taking on water and listing sharper to port every time the left takes over, but the unprincipled RINOs do absolutely nothing to right her when they get a chance. In fact, the RINOs actually tack on plenty of their own unconstitutional baggage when they're in power and so our ship of state today is in pretty bad shape.

RINO Romney is one of the worst. We can thank him for being the chief architect of ObamaCare, which if we cannot get overturned and repealed, will finally accomplish the left's major objective of shredding the final remnants of our tattered constitution and ending our God-given Liberty forever (they think).

The liberals believe our constitution is a flawed document written in a different time for different circumstances by rich old racist white men and no longer applies to today's circumstances. They're now even trying to promote the idea that the constitution was never intended to limit or restrict the powers of government.

Like hell! That was and is its primary intent! And we who have sworn an oath to defend it, will defend it--from all enemies, foreign and domestic!

And that's FR's purpose and reason for being.

Romney may be a Republican, and that's questionable, because he's violated nearly every plank in the Republican party's official pro-God, pro-Life, pro-Family, pro-Constitution, pro-Liberty platform, but he's definitely no conservative. In fact his record is that of a statist liberal progressive. And he's a total fraud to boot, with a nasty habit of lying--about everything. He'll do and say anything if he thinks it will help him get elected. He's a two-bit, unprincipled political whore.

Here's Romney's record on some of our primary issues of concern compared to Obama's:

Issue: Obama Romney
Pro-Abortion check check
Gun-grabber check check
Gay rights check check
Gov forced healthcare check check
Tax payer funded abortion check check
Man-made global warming check check
Liberal judges check check
Liberal appointees check check
Ted Kennedy pal check check
Proven liar check check
Fraud check check
Liberal Progressive check check
Enemy of Reagan/Bush check check
Enemy of the tea party check check
Enemy of Liberty check check
Defender of the Constitution no no
Conservative no no
Works across the aisle no yes
Architect of ObamaCare no yes
Domestic Enemy check check
Useful idiot check check

All of the above plus much more is documented in the RomneyTruth files on FR. Click the RomneyTruthFile keyword at the top of the main page. Also watch the "New Romney Campaign Video" also linked at the top of the main page. Watch it all the way through. I even saw some clips I'd never seen before. Pretty damning stuff for anyone running for president as a Republican.

Let's face it folks, the elite establishment RINO corps hates the tea party, hates conservatives, are afraid and even ashamed to have us identify ourselves as Republicans, feel we are dangerous extremist, racist, bigoted bible thumping, gun-toting, flag-waving neanderthals. The tea party is the best thing to happen for America since 1776 and our tea party candidates are the best thing for the GOP since Ronald Reagan, but what do the elite establishment RINOs do? They declare us the enemy! They went after Sarah Palin and some of our other tea party candidates with bared fangs and talons. Karl Rove and company were and continue to be as nasty and shameless on the attack as the nastiest lying liberal. Sarah Palin was the most exciting new face in GOP politics in a century and would have been a landslide 57 state victory over the corrupt, lying Marxist/progressive Obama. But the good ol' boys, i.e., the elite establishment corrupt crony capitalist GOP bastards could have none of that. Instead, they've opted to go all in with a corrupt, lying statist/progressive of their own: Willard (the Rat) Romney.

Well, good luck getting the Rat elected without the committed grassroots, pro-life, pro-constitution conservatives or the majority of the tea party.

FR, for one, will not play that game. NO MORE RINOS!!

No Romney. NOT ON FR!! NOT ON MY WATCH!!

Should Romney be "the one," I'll vote for the down-ticket conservatives on the ballot, but I will not vote for an abortionist, gay-rights pushing, gun-grabbing, global-warming advocating, big government healthcare mandating statist/progressive for president!! I'd rather write-in the name of the tea party conservative who best matches my beliefs. Romney is no 80 percenter. Not even close! He's the backstabbing enemy within.

God bless America!!

Long live the Republic!!

If we are stuck with Romney,


Then whichever Dem is running will win. Just like when McCain ran. And Bob Dole.

Hear! Hear Jim!

No Willard Mitt Romney!

Not on Your Watch and we have your back!

I’ll also vote Tea Party Conservative straight down the ticket and I’ll write-in Sarah Palin!

Furthermore, no fossil Beltway corrupt- crony-RINOS either!

Defeat them in primaries with Tea Party citizen patriots and I don’t care whether those patriots have any damn government experience! Better they don’t!

ONWARD TO 2012 AND A TEA PARTY MASSIVE VICTORY!

GO FREE REPUBLIC!

WE NEED FREE REPUBLIC NOW, MORE THAN EVER!!!

But his strange affinity for Romney is a concern and I really don’t understand it when I look at Cain’s stance on most of the issues.


I’d listen to Cain over the years and think ‘why can’t we have THIS guy for president?’. He rang every one of my bells.

I’d really thought he’d abhor Romney and align with Perry. I can’t understand it, either.

It takes a long time to corrupt a political party. It won't clean up over night. The tea Party Pats are the greatest thing to come along in some time.

already they have stymied some of the rinos who have been heard saying "gee these new guys cant be bought".

I think they are our best chance to clean up the party.

It will never happen. Mitt will lie and say we need to nominate ‘those who can get confirmed’ then pick the most liberal under that guise, knowing the RINOS and libs will support it.

That's certainly possible. I might even put the chances of that at as high as 50%. However, if Obama is president the chances are >95%.

I'm not here to advocate for Romney; in fact I have the same misgivings Jim posted at the beginning of this thread. But, at the same time, let's not be under the illusion that there is "no difference" between Romney and Obama. There is a difference - just not as large as you, me or other conservatives would like.

Have I told you lately that I love you, Laz?

For Dr. White - do you think this verse (from the book of Mormon) is racist?

2 Nephi 30:6 has read:

“...their scales of darkness shall begin to fall from their eyes; and many generations shall not pass away among them, save they shall be a white and a delightsome people.”

Choosing Romneypuke over 0bama is like deciding you’d rather take poison and die slowly instead of a bullet to the brain.

IMHO, we are still at the development of a candidate(there are no 100% pure candidates running) stage in the process. There is still time to support the most conservative candidate from the viable ones we have to support. Once we pick one we enter a new phase of the election.

>>I've NEVER used the term; however, that is very different from calling someone a racist when they use the term to refer to THEMSELVES.<<

I didn’t accuse anyone of doing anything. I simply relayed the fact that Cain has said he doesn’t like the terms used even in support of him. My take was that it didn’t much matter what the skin color of the person using it was.
