A dark day for FR.
I know you claim to be against homo sex, but since The IncreasinglyLessFreeRepublic’s tent now only fits the two of us, I’m feeling a bit uncomfortable. (...wait...what the... that had better have been the tent zipper...going down!)
What the hell are people supposed to post if Romney wins the nomination?
And what the hell are we people who like to reason and debate supposed to do once we all are either coerced or winnowed into agreement?
Seriously, it is time for a name change: ‘The Robinson Republic’ has a ring to it.
FreeRepublic has itself become false advertising.
(No, I don’t support Romney. I also do not have an irrational fear of him.)
Door meet ass.
You don't fear a man who changes positions like underwear and shares some of the same positions as Obama?!
You ain't in the same tent with me let me tell ya!!!
The boss has made it clear that FR is NOT a liberal debating society. I don't come here for debate of any type because the stated purpose is clear:
Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America. And we always have fun doing it. Hoo-yah!
As I see it, the purpose is to champion causes that promote true Conservative principles in America. This is a site for pro-God, pro-gun, pro-life activism. I don't see how there can be nay room for debate on Mitt Romney, any more than one can debate the merits of homosexuality or murdering of the unborn.
NOT ONE VOTE HAS BEEN CAST IN ANY PRIMARY and yet you say this a dark day for FRee Republic?
How so?
Because there will be NO campaigning for Romney?
FYI, How about bucking up and getting to work with the aim of defeating him in the primaries?
Find yourself a conservative to support and work for your candidate!
Free Republic is pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-constitution, pro-limited government.
We are a grassroots conservative activist site fighting for pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-constitution, pro-limited government causes and candidates.
What part of Romney is none of the above do you not understand? And why do you think pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-constitution, pro-limited government Free Republic should support a candidate whose record is completely opposite to our stated principles and goals?
That's a specious argument. No one is being coerced or winnowed into agreement. JimRob has applied remarkable equanimity in what can be posted (pro and con) about ANY of the candidates, including: Cain, Bachmann, Perry, Santorum, Gingrich, and even nutty old Ron Paul. Engage in reason and debate about any or all of them, as you like.
Romney isn't a moderate Republican, Romney isn't a libertarian Republican, a conservative, or an independant. Romney is a liberal. JimRob will not allow advocacy for a liberal on his website. Is that really so difficult to understand?
Why do you hate private property?
You should have a rational fear of what his presidency would be.
What the .... are people supposed to post if Romney wins the nomination?
_____________________________________________
What difference would that make ???
Romney would not suddenly be OURS...
He would still be THEIRS...
We will continue if any to post AGAINST the liberal RINO Romney...
and FOR a Conservative...
Roll over if you want to...
I never will...
It hasn't happened yet and we aren't going to do anything to encourage it, like telling the RNC that we are willing to bend over and get screwed again.
Speaking only for myself, I'll be posting against both Obama and Romney and for some third party candidate or a Sarah Palin write-in campaign.
