Conservative site [Free Republic] on Romney: 'Enemies of the constitution ... are not welcome here'
politico ^ | 103111 | Ben Smith

Posted on 10/31/2011 8:11:08 PM PDT by Fred

In an email to POLITICO this afternoon, Robinson admitted that the site routinely blocks Romney supporters from posting -- and offered no apologies for the practice:

Free Republic is a pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-small government, pro-constitution, pro-liberty site. Governor Romney is none of the above. His record is that of an abortionist, gay rights pushing, gun grabbing, global warming advocating, big government, mandate loving, constitution trampling, flip-flopping liberal progressive with no core values. That and the fact that he is the chief architect and advocate for ObamaCare disqualifies him for any consideration whatsoever on Free Republic as a potential nominee for the presidency. ...

Liberal progressives and other enemies of the constitution and or of Liberty itself are not welcome here. Accounts registered here by liberal progressives and other assorted trolls, malcontents and disruptors will be removed on sight or at the convenience of the site administrators.

The site came under fire from Ross Abraham, a blogger for Mitt Romney Central, who wrote today that Free Republic is just one of several sites (along with RedState, he says) on the right-wing Internet that are pretty much off limits to Mitt Romney's supporters.

He’s the least less-palatable and embarrassing at this point.

LOL! The msm haven't begun to hit Mitt yet. They figure they can beat him because ho won't light a fire in the belly of the electorate, he won't get out the vote like the midterms, he won't inspire those pesky Conservatives who just might be more active supporting a more Conservative candidate.

His policies read like Barry-o lite, and he gets the credit for the prototype for Obamacare.

So the MSM isn't going to touch him until he gets the nomination (if that happens) because they figure he is the one Obama can beat. Failing that, the policies won't be that much different.

Why else would Clinton have remained in office. After all, with 900 FBI raw data files, you can sift enough dung out of unsubstantiated dirt to pick up the ‘swing’ vote.

FLIP Romney is sweating his numbers are tanking so he sends out the Mittbots to smear the leaders. Typical LIEberal - can’t win on his own merit so the SCANDAL-MONGERING begins! Easy to see where the smearing is originating....

HAHA. Maybe they're going to catch themselves some nasty giant RATs in that trap. Or maybe a dancing RINO

Given the choice between approaching the cliff’s edge at 100 mph v. 75 mph, I’ll refuse both and jump out of the damn car. I might get lucky. I might not. But I ain’t goin’ out on THEIR terms.

Note to the Republican National Committee: Pull the emergency brake or put the pedal to the metal. It’s your choice, but know this - your passengers aren’t along for the ride anymore.

I’ll put Sarah’s name. NOT voting for anyone else this time around. No Cain - a flake - no...one else.

Anti-Mormon bigotry? I'm here virtually every day and I have not seen it.

It exists. Search for any thread begun by Colofornian.

I cannot stand Mitt Romney, and will never vote for him, but it is bigoted and stupid to attack/condemn him specifically because he's a mormon.

There are plenty of valid reasons to despise him as a candidate.

Rove is in the tank for Mittens and their desperation stank reeks all over this smear job of Cain.

That comment was between you and me. I think the only power conservatives have with the GOP is our veto power. I don’t know how we get that across to them.

and then there's his negative side....

That is not fair. We are for religious freedom here. Jim is not anti Mormon and neither are most of us. We dislike romney but it’s not about his religion.

This is Mr. Robinson’s site. Therefore, he gets to set the rules for posting on it.

Damn right. I may be projecting a bit, but I suspect both of us are grouchy olde fartes, and do not care much for "nuance" (what a faggoty word) and mealy mouthed politicians. Mittens is certainly a mealy-mouth and not worth spit............

Those sitting out any election are why we have an Obama now.

I hold them responsible.

Anybody that would allow an Obama 4-8 years at the helm of America is not a patriot at all.

I agree, but humbly admit I know squat about Mormonism, other than their chicks are not noted to be all that ah, vibrant..........

That comment was between you and me.

Yes, it was. I included Jim by mistake. I was editing another comment at the same time and pasted his name on yours instead of the other. My apologies.
