" Isn’t it good that we BOTH know that and have responded appropriately? "

Yes,

but, I would go on and defend Jim Robinson.

Many are accusing him of something he is not doing.
Some have accused him of squelching freedom and liberty by banning some of the Romney supporters as if they don't have a right to voice their view.
That is not the point Jim Rob is making and some are not getting the signals clearly.
That is not anti-liberty or anti-freedom, Jim Rob is doing nothing of the sort, far from it.
He already made the disclaimer that even if they are Romney supporters, they are welcome, what Jim Rob has said is ? Those Romney supporter who " are out of line, or get out of line " are banned from Free Republic.
Besides ? anyone here, not just the Romney supporters, but anyone has the right to start their own website to voice their voice, and views, no one is stopping them..... that's true Freedom.
If a guest came to my house and I did not want drinking, or cussing in my house, am I hurting someone's freedom ? liberty ? no, if they want to drink, or cuss, then go somewhere else, but, not in my house.
I am sure ? in your house ? you have some rules that you would want your guest to abide by.
If this is a conservative website and someone is promoting liberal views in a way that is over the line, what are we conservatives suppose to do ? what is Jim Rob suppose to do ? tolerate it ? I think not.
