Everyone please send whatever you are able to, whether it is $10, $100 or $1,000+. The DUmmies, Morons, Kos Kiddies and that crew are laughing up their sleeves. Jim may have to make this site members only or allow ads. Better for us to just help with what we can. Maybe you can donate as a memorial for a lost loved one, a servicemember who never made it home or was disabled defending our country. Perhaps you'd like to give to keep free discussion alive and to show them that we're not knuckling under. I'm sure a well thought out or prayerful meditation will lead you to see the need and how you can help. If every registered FReeper and our lurkers would each just help out with a fin or a sawbuck, or better yet a Ben Franklin, we could put this to bed and get on with the conservative cause.
Then he got all inclusive a year later by picking Schweiker as his VP.
Right, but Reagan was never pro-abortion, I remember that bill, and like Reagan, was shocked at how the left distorted it, Reagan called it his greatest blunder, and he became a powerful figure in the pro life movement.
Roe v Wade was in 1973, the abortion wars followed and were intense, and brutal for the following decades as law enforcement developed ‘pain compliance” tactics, yet those decades only strengthened Romney’s pro-abortion position that he had held since 1963.
Romney was always rabidly, aggressively, passionately pro-abortion, as his campaigns, and his debates, and his video recordings show, the man knew how to pull the heart strings when promoting abortion on television.
You romneybots have taken Romney’s lead as you attack Reagan to advance the lefty, Reagan hating, Mitt Romney.
For 5 years Romney has tried to spread the lie that “Reagan was adamantly, pro-choice”, you have chosen to advance that slander.
Actually what you are stating is ridiculous. Posters donate to keep FR online so they can use it. You own nothing.
That is the bottom line. The overwhelming, vast majority of conservatives/Republicans want the dog eater defeated. 95% of conservatives/Republicans are simply not going to understand or agree to a policy of not supporting the GOP nominee. They just aren't. Willard may make people queasy, we may have to hold our noses (again), but the alternative (Hussein) has proven himself as such a threat to the Republic that he must be defeated at all costs. This idea of not voting for the GOP nominee may be considered principled by some (and we can certainly respect those people who feel this way), but it isn't a view that is going to be able to support a large, active website/forum for very long. That viewpoint would be more something I'd expect to see on a small, niche website/forum.
It is going to be very hard to keep a large, active right of center/conservative forum going if during a national general election campaign people can't root for the GOP candidate (however piss poor he may be). Part of this is just a human nature thing. For partisan political folks like exists here on FR, most of us have our team (even when it's subpar) and cheer for it. A national general election is the Superbowl of politics, and I just can't see how, by the time we get to November, it is even possible to prevent the site from being dominated by political stories with the comments being almost 95% pro-Willard. Not because most any of us like Romney, but because the dog eater is so much worse. To actively try to stop this result would really have a be an intentional effort to shed the forum of many members and become more of a focused, niche site on the web.
What have we become
My liberty loving FRiend
It didn't turn out well...did it.
I rarely do anymore, but could not stand by in good conscience and see someone who has a paltry $361 a month income spend one penny here. Anyone with a conscience would have done the same.
As for the info about the servers that I posted, it's all there for anyone to see for themselves. People can draw their own conclusions.
Specially the stone-ground, seeds still in type of mustard.
He wasn’t perfect. No one is. But there sure hasn’t been anyone like him since.
He's upset I didn't get suspended or banned after him and his girlfriend's complained about me from last May!!! HAHAHA
I told you this was madness!
Romney bot ?
my original hope was that Sarah Palin would run
Freerepublic is not a debating society, it is an action oriented, activist site, think advancing conservatism, not endlessly debating the merits of abortion, and partial-birth abortion, after-birth abortion, and the benefits of the radical leftist homosexual agenda, and all the other fundamentals of the hard left.
It’s Quix’s money and he can spend it the way he likes.
And your post was not just made out of concern for Quix.
You basically painted Jim Robinson as a thief and scam artist for soliciting money under false pretenses. Even from Social Security recipients.
So I will ask you again—why are you here if you really feel this way, especially a Class of ‘99er?
And if you feel Jim is a scam artist, why not tell him so directly? You know the protocol.
If you had a conscience, you would self zot. What you posted in 1165 is a disgrace.
I give kudos to DJ for calling that guy out. Sorry for not pinging him I already had one alcoholic stalk me today on this thread...
You have changed a lot since that past, tonight you are attacking Reagan like a dedicated romneybot.
Jim has told these people that he will vote his conscience and they can vote according to theirs. He also said that he will not allow promotions of Mitt on this site. Apparently that is not good for them. The spinning that I see earlier in this thread is remarkable.
I have been following these threads closely, even though I have not posted regularly. Nobody has been zotted for saying that they will vote Romney in the general. To imply that people got zotted for saying that they will vote for Romney, is trying to be a rabble rouser and trouble maker on this forum.
Then, why are you here? Especially after 12 years?
He posted it because he's an anti-freeper from another site. What he posted was incorrect too.
FR is getting new equipment, not just servers. That's why there is extra added to this 'thon and the last one. Half the money has been raised for the equipment.
No I havent. No. I am not attacking Reagan, I am saying that he made mistakes in his political career just like every President since George Washington has made mistake.
The bottom line is. There is going to be an election in November and we can’t lose this one.
Not many posts about Obama on this thread.
Not anymore it's not! That is for sure! It's become nothing more than an echo chamber! SAD!
