Wow.

Someone on another thread said he’d never seen anyone post on FR that they planned to pull the lever for Barack Hussein Obama.

I noted that I hadn’t seen many such posts, but I had seen at least two.

Make that three now.

Curious times at FR.

I could never bring myself to pull the lever for BamBam Barack but I do think we’ll be better off with gridlock and letting Obama burn out his 8 years than with Romney having another moderate Republican presidency that frustrates the base and leads to a full Democrat takeover, a la 1992 and 2006-2008. Obama’s hands are pretty well tied from doing what he wants to do with a bad economy and a Republican Congress. Chances are Romney would unwittingly set up a much more powerful liberal majority for 2016 if he wins, which would be very dangerous.

It’s sarcasm.

I was being sarcastic.

We’re in a hell of a predicament.

Yeah, FR is going Zer0! It’s become more liberal. These so-called Freepers would rather vote for someone !00% adverse to their beliefs than the alternate who might give 70% of what they want.

This is exactly what Zer0’s people are doing. I’m surprised how well it’s working.

The real problem we face is if we allow Romney a win, from here on out, every Lib who wants to be President will change affiliation, and offer themselevs as a Republican Candidate. Clearly, Bloomberg will become the future standard of GOP candidate. The Establishment, which only wants to win, will embrace every one of them, just assuming the hard-line Conservatives will always vote for the R. The party will quickly become a Conservative Party in name only. Already, you could make a case that it is.

Truth is, if we all had voted for Obama last time around, and McCain got only 15 Electoral votes, the Elites would have gotten the message, and we likely wouldn’t have Romney. And nothing would have been different practically, beyond our stongly sent message.

I can understand how many people feel a vote for Obama is justified, and I almost agree with them. If it weren’t for the Supreme Court, I’d be fully on board myself.

See his later posts on this thread. He wasn't being truthful.
