Leftists, MittBots, PaulBots, RINOs, Karl Rove establishment types and trolls of many stripes and colors have one-by-one driven our leading grassroots conservative candidates out of the race. They worked for years on Palin, then Perry, then Cain, then Bachmann, now Newt. When ever a non-establishment, non-RINO conservative gets into the lead they open fire and 24/7 trash and torpedo until they drive them out.
NO MORE!!
If you want to troll and trash our conservative candidates, take your business elsewhere! PaulBots can take it to a liberaltaraian site. RomneyBots to FOX News. RINO trolls to the NY Times. Lib trolls to DU. Abortionist/statist trolls to hell. I don’t care where you go, but if you’re here to trash Newt 24/7, I’m gunning for your azz!!
REBELLION IS HERE!!
WAR IS HELL!!
DON’T TREAD ON ME!!
“you just don’t want to be held accountable for your own actions”
Another nonsensical post from you. My question was raised precisely because of the issue of accountability. Are we allowed to ask questions relating to Newt’s policies or is that now off the table as it is now considered equal to bashing? If so everyone will need to adjust accordingly. Its obvious you’re incapable of understanding the difference. My sympathies. But as one who doesn’t wish to fall afoul of the rules I’m just hoping for some clarity. Darksheare was kind enough to offer an educated opinion on the matter. Shame you can’t do the same.
Please understand, I'll back whoever our candidate is, but won't stop any assessment of the candidates until then.
We are not going to trash and drive out our last best conservative chance to defeat Romney and Obama. Period. End of story. Don’t like it, go elsewhere.
Can’t make it any plainer than that. Go, Newt!! Kick ass!!
He didn’t last long. Retread?
dannyh
Go ahead, become kitty food for all I care. If you can’t control yourself or have a failure of logical understanding, fine, we don’t need you here bashing our candidate.
Now, now....let's not go gettin' all paranoid here. There is no Romney plot, and you're not crazy.
The fault is TV. Yes it is, Normie. GR just didn't have the heart to break it to you.
They really did lie to you when they said there was no black conservatives, 'cause it's really true. And I know this might come as a shock....are you sitting down? TV started all the attacks on Sarah Palin!!!
I know. Real shocker, huh? I hope you didn't faint. This stuff is getting stranger than fiction, my man. I don't know what this world is coming to.
Can't trust Romney, can't trust TV. Who's next? Colin Powell???
Wait, what? Say it ain't so!
Uh-oh...did I just say something prescient? Please tell me that Colin is still on the reservation.
Was Spooner7 a retread, too? I got FReepMail from both before they rode the lightening.
I made a mental list today and will see what I can add to it, I’ll freepmail you and I think add to my profile page, that way I can easily add to it. I know there are many freepers whose comments I really like to read (don’t always agree 100% of course, but mostly agree with). Well said, well thought out, way better than I could ever say, etc - good research, and so on.
“Its pretty sad, this used to be an interesting site with some political influence. “
As opposed to what site?
True Blue?
Thanks for the *ping*.
I would really like to see Gingrich-West, if I had my druthers.
Tell that to my wife... I have a closet full of them and wore them long before Santorum ran for president. They work well during seasons when it's too cold not to wear some kind of sweater but not yet cold enough for a winter coat or heavy sweater.
But then again, I live in the Missouri Ozarks where some people wonder why I wear a tie. My usual answer is I'd look silly if I tried to drive around in a pickup truck wearing jeans and farm boots. I'm not a farmer and trying to look like one would be stupid.
If the worst thing people can say about a politician is they don't like his sweaters, I think he's doing pretty well.
Ha ha! Okay, I give! Wear the sweater vest with pride, FRiend!
I'm really glad to see you here.
Many, many, MANY years ago when I was in grad school, I lived in an inner-city neighborhood and attended a church that was successfully making the transition from a predominantly white church to one that reflected the neighborhood's change to being predominantly black. In addition to the usual things of driving around to housing projects to pick up tons of kids for Sunday school and Wednesday night Bible clubs, I got politically involved in the neighborhood and ended up being the neighborhood association's delegate to an important committee of the city government. I didn't use the term, but I guess I could have been described as a “community organizer” since I served on the board of a CDBG-funded neighborhood association and was eventually one of its officers, and I sometimes throw that in the face of Obama supporters who like to think conservatives know nothing about problems of the inner city.
I saw firsthand the incredible damage being done by liberal policies to poor families regardless of ethnicity, but which hurt black families more than white families. I also saw many black pastors and church members who should have been Republicans based on religious issues, but weren't.
We need many more conservatives who are not white — both black and Hispanic — or demographics will destroy us.
LOL!
Nobody local has made the connection yet... but if Santorum stays in the public eye by becoming the VP (president seems increasingly unlikely) I suspect I'll start getting some ribbing.
Yeah, that Norm is one dastardly fellow. Made me out myself, he did ;-)
Thanks, friend. I'm glad to be here. Frankly, I'm surprised that every conservative (black or otherwise) doesn't live at Free Republic. It's been my home online for almost a decade.

The Republican party of the 1950s and '60s made one of the biggest strategic blunders in their history, by allowing the Democrats to successfully position themselves as the rightful political home of blacks in that day.
Up until that era, most blacks voted Republican. It was the 'party of Lincoln', and emancipation. In fact, all four of my grandparents voted Republican all their lives, and never switched parties. Blacks of my parent's (Depression era) generation were about evenly split between the parties. By the time the baby boomers of my generation came of age, the capture of the black vote was complete.
It's only been since the dawn of the new millenium that a new breed of blacks has begun escaping the rigid ideological grip of the left and the Democrat party. Like me, many of these people have come to the realization that the Democrat party is completely at odds with the cultural core values of most black people, and that their policies and programs have devastated their communities.
The process of revealing the political truth of the Democrat party and their bankrupt leftist ideals to blacks, is a long one, but it is ongoing. I see little signs of it here and there, constantly, and have personally witnessed other blacks make their escape.
Now, that is what I call real hope and change.
