You got that right!
You are aware of the breakdown in this Country of people who consider themselves conservative versus liberal versus moderate, right? we’re the majority of the 3 ideologies, but not when you combine liberal and moderate, they account for 56% combined.
As an aside, I despise Henley and all he stands for, but I gotta give the devil his due (heh...) the man can write a ‘hell’ of a song. Figuratively and literally ;)
Liberals won’t vote for Romney when they have the Commie, Moderates will look at Romney and see the most untrustworthy politician they have ever seen in their lives.
Romney is not electable.
BUMP!!
It is disingenuous or a flat out blatant lie, to state that Jim Rob or anyone else here is instructing you how to vote. That is your own decision.
If you have been following Jim's posts, I think he has stated two points as I understand them-
- He stated his own personal decision to not vote for Mitt. I know it rankles some of you, but that is his decision and he is free to do with his vote as he pleases.
- He stated that he does not want anyone using the resources of FreeRepublic to campaign for Mitt. Again he is free to make that decision for his website, as promoting a progressive goes against everything he has stood for all these years. It is also a good business decision, because that would dilute or spoil the brand of FreeRepublic. It is after all a website for conservatism, not conservatism and liberalism on alternate days.
It is a long way until November. Things can happen. For all we know maybe Mittens won’t even be the one on the ballot with an R beside it. I don’t believe I have told other Freepers what to do in November and neither will listen to them telling me what to do.
It would be very easy to lie, who would know? Nobody. I’m being honest and saying I will probably vote ABO which is what the large majority of republicans will do. However, if the polls show the R has no chance of winning and the candidate is Romney, I might consider a write in.
Well, you were mostly correct with that statement...except you have a lying P.O.S. baby killer on either side.
I sustain and support the right of a woman to make that abortion choice
But don’t you see? That’s not what they want to hear. The magic mix-up machine in their heads translates that as
“I can say whatever I damn well please and this is a free country. Just like an OWSer I am justified in using the property of others to form a platform for my selfish desires and if you point that out it’s you who are a bully and violating “MY” right to speak under the first amendment....because I’m special”
And I'm sure Palin, Bachmann, Santorum, Newt, the Tea Party, Rush, Levin, Savage etc. etc. etc. will be persona non grata too!
If the ‘conservatives’, regardless of position/fame/influence choose to abandon everything they have told us repeatedly that they believe in to back a Pro abortion/pro gay/pro GW et all candidate, then it is they who will have taken themselves out of the conservative camp.
If you abandon the actual republican platform as written, then you are by definition, a RINO.
Now please explain any logical flaw in that statement.
Once you cast that vote for the leftwinger, how will you ever be able to say your a conservative again? Once you have volunarily thrown away your principles, what is the chance you will ever get them back?
If Free Republic were to actively campaign and endorse the most leftwing candidate possible, how will ever be able to be a conservative website again?
Supporting someone like Romney kills conservatism.
You only fight for conservatism sometimes? You only express conservative views when it is convenient and easy?
If you talk conservative and then vote liberal, then what good are you? You are just calling yourself a liar and a fraud.
Ain’t that great.
Choice. What a....bland?....word.
On the otherhand u got Obama promoting the idea it’s alright after a baby is free from the birth canal to let it die. Course he’s all about “Choice” too.
Comes down to the same thing. Dead is Dead.
Dude, if Obama switched parties youd back him to the hilt as our candidate wouldnt you?

This wasn’t for me but first of all, there is no way that Marxist bastard would switch parties and I would never in a million years even consider for that America hating bastard.
I can say whatever I damn well please and this is a free country. Just like an OWSer I am justified in using the property of others to form a platform for my selfish desires and if you point that out its you who are a bully and violating MY right to speak under the first amendment....because Im special
Now THAT is a keeper!
“Socks Conservative” Change when needed.
Yeah!
Then there are the Mittbots, who are enraged that Jim won't let them take over FreeRepublic to target and reach a conservative audience that they otherwise would have a hard time getting their message to (via scare tactics, ridicule, fear mongering, insulting, and guilt trips). So they try to create problems among freepers.
