Direct racist terms were used by the person in question, specifically "honkey" and "cracker". The use of such terms is a racist action.

Not words that I would choose but the racist labels you are applying to certain posters are misdirected and that's from years of reading those member's posts.

If they are so offensive to you, skip over them and go on with your life or as you may have already heard, "grow a thick skin".

I've read your replies and I see you are as anti Romney as the rest of us, hang in there and keep posting, just expect flak when you call respected members "racist". All that being said, I do not believe because you are a noob, that you don't have valid political points of view, I've never agreed with the notion that noobs are entirely worthless, a lot of them bring a newness that can be enlightening.

When I joined F.R., the "noob" label really galled me, to me they were saying that my political ideology just started to form when I joined F.R. (at age 58) and was therefore worthless and today, I try not to call too many people noob, noob, unless they need a little tweaking.

I'm 66 years old, you may call me "old man", or whatever label you choose, as long as you don't forget to call me for supper it won't bother me in the slightest.

Welcome to F.R.

I am well aware racism is not tolerated on FR, and neither is falsely accusing fellow freepers of being racist.

It was a bad call, one made most likely because he is a noob, but the boy just kept digging and making it worse.

Hey little fella, Ted Bundy was a real cutie Mormon too. Had a dignified look as well. And then there was Mark Hoffman who tricked the Elders with his wonderful Mormon persona.

I could go on and on but you probably have a white horse prophesy in mind.

The sources are there to look them up. I have had that in my files for over 10 years, not sure the link is still there, plus a few are ones I found various places.

FR is not necessarily kind to Romney but Cain and Bachmann certainly are for some strange reason.

Romney full deserves whatever unkindness that comes his way. What do you have against Cain and Bachmann? I support Herman Cain but could gladly vote for Perry or Bachmann in the general.

“I’m sworn to secrecy or he will take me hunting”

Sounds like a wise decision. The mystery continues.

Where did you get the idea I was Pro-Perry? I’m Cain all the way, working grass roots for him and donating to him. I, too have both phone banked and precinct walked for candidates and plan on doing it for Cain.

Rather, I’m one of the ones who opposes Perry and went after him after the dabate and on the illegal issue, so I still don’t get where you got the idea I was Pro-Perry. I can’t stand the ones who cry ‘its Romney or Perry or Obama’ - NO IT ISN”T.

The Republican establishment last time brought us McCain, the WORST CANDIDATE EVER. A guy who previously had made overtures to jump to the other side, ran no campaign, and basically gave the election to Obama.

I remember being repeatedly vilified by posters on FR for saying the guy was a turd, a phony and a traitor to the cause and I would never vote for him. I was proven right, in spades.

I hope maybe this time the message may be sinking in, that some of these folks being put forward are just whores and shills, and will just work to keep The Party Going for the special interests that are raping and pillaging our country.

We could do worse. Perry has a big mountain to overcome regarding the illegal alien issue, but if he can get over it and is on the ticket, I’d vote for him.

The only reason I vote the McCain/Palin ticket was Palin. Never again. Been there, done that, wouldn’t be prudent.

That prophecy has quite a bit to do with Romney running and why he gets some of the support from co-religionists that he does.

Knowledge is power even if you don’t believe it.

Thanks for saying so. We Texans have quite a few burrs under our saddle with Perry, but we’re practical enough to remember the 80/20 rule.

I personally wish Cain would leave himself open..

So those who are intent on defeating Barack Hussein Obama at all costs need to find another place to post if Mitiful gets the RepNom, is that what I’m hearing?

Look at it this way. The media is pushing Romney as the "front runner" and the reason for doing this as they see him as unlikely to beat Obama. Hell Bells, they'd push Newt if they thought he had a chance of the nomination, because there is not a chance he could win the general election.

Point is, Romney can't win if he gets the nomination. If we want to beat Obama, we had better get someone else nominated. Otherwise we are just SOL.

My apoligies. I was not saying “you” as in you-reaganaut, but “You” more in a plural way. It is sometimes hard for me to make myself perfectly clear in text.
