I don’t hate Romney and furthermore, I don’t know anybody on this forum who does. By all means add me to your list if I’m not already on it because I hate everything he stands for, including but not limited to, his mormonism and his liberalism. I’m also an original member of the “Inmans”. That alone should qualify me for your asinine list.
I started the list out of my own curiosity and fervent hope that these posters represented only a fraction of FR members.
Jim Robinson has neither approved my list nor suggested I not do it.
As you know, Jim declared amnesty and, although he doesn’t like Romney, he gave posters here the freedom to post their convictions. that’s all I’m doing.
As far as obsession goes, I’ll defend my obsession against that of some here any day in the week.
I’ve said before and I say again.
If I didn’t love Free Republic, I’d leave and not bother with all this. I just want Free Republic to redeem its sanity and position in the political world.
Ok, so now that you have increased to stocking up to 50 FRs, please send the list, I need to increase the rib and beer order.
Please keep me apprised as the number grows, don’t want anyone to go hungry.
Will you do this before or after you go over to truebluewhiners and dog FreeRepublic and Jim again?
Buy more beef. I’ve found 46.
But make your own list. It’s for my personal info only.
I'm literally encouraging people to "put loyalty to God over loyalty to party" and you accuse me of this ?
I am not kidding you, you mock God with a vote for babylonian mystery cult leader Romney at your own peril.
I leave this conversation exactly the same way I will leave the voting booth in November after writing in George Washington, having done my duty to God, and not having participated in evil.
If you don’t think it matters whether the guy making those calls is Mitt Romney or Barack Obama, I think you’re smokin’ something funky….”

No way pork ribs baby.
Thanks, I need to know the number as it increases.
Make sure I am on that list.
The previous post paid for by Mitt Romney for President
Did you seriously not get the memo - Heaven above is in full support of keeping the Black Liberation Theological clown in charge - clue-in!!!
Having not posted yet, pretty confident my name is not on your list, add me I could use a good picnic and ribs.
Liberals are not people I vote for.
Please include me on you paranoid enemies list- all the cool kids are on it!
My position has not and will not change. I won’t be voting for or supporting an abortionist/homosexualist statist for the presidency. No Romney vote here.

Making an enemies list is certainly a bang-up way of accomplishing that.
You cause is noble I'm sure...
We should bow to our betters and be happy you take time out from bitching about FreeRepublic over at TrueBlueandZotted to guide and counsel us lunatics...
Please add my name to your list. :)
And those 30 or so of us who are outspoken in our opposition to Mormonism, are ...well...the only folks who have the guts and the conviction to call it as we see it.
The rest of you either don’t know enough about Mormonism, don’t care enough about Christ, or are Mormons in disguise.
But that is just my opinion.
I better be on your list...
Or you dont have list of people who matter...
I accept invitations to only the best places...
Like svcw’s BBQ...
Here we have an application of the Law of the Excluded Middle, in spades — a system of two-value logic, in which the only possible answers to any question are "yes/no," or "true/false." You stipulate, in consequence of this type of reasoning, that a conservative or Christian cannot vote for Romney without betraying his or her core principles.
While the Law of the Excluded Middle comes in handy in situations requiring the determination of simple fact (where that Law is appropriate), it is far too crude a tool to engage the far more complex problems of human experience and judgment; for the Law requires that all answers must be given in terms of "true/false." Thus it works best in discrete situations involving either (1) direct observation; or (2) digital (machine) "thinking."
But for the vastly more complex problems of human experience and judgment, a three-value logical system is necessary. In three-value logic, there are three possible answers to any question: "true," "false," and "undecidable" (given any particular fact situation). The question must be undecidable unless we know all the relevant factors involved, which in human situations is rarely the case; and such relevant factors wouldn't be "direct observables" in principle anyway.
To employ the language of "Gagdad Bob" (a/k/a Dr. Robert Godwin, forensic psychologist), a two-value logical system moves along the horizontal time extension (like Newtonian mechanics). A three-value logical system has a third projection along the vertical time extension, which approaches the timeless....
Existentially, man lives "in-between" time and timelessness....
Which observation is probably as clear as mud to folks who don't worry themselves over epistemic problems. So let me put it another way: We have to say a question is undecidable unless we are in full possession of all the relevant factors bearing on the question. And arguably, you — and we — are not in possession of all the relevant factors. Indeed, no human being ever is. But — you evidently think you are, or you wouldn't speak the way you do.
But it seems to me that there are some relevant factors that you rule out in advance, preferring your own "true-and-false" notions, and closing your mind to all other factors that do not fit the criteria that you are attempting to impose on the question.
And then, rather gratuitously it seems to me, you wrote:
I would call that classic situationism for those who had formerly guided themselves by their Christian or conservative principles.Which to me is a breathtaking statement. Here you suggest that "conservatives and Christians" who don't see the problem exactly as you see it (and vote for Virgil Goode) are neither conservative or Christian.
Talk about the misapplication of the Law of the Excluded Middle!
Not to mention that your entire position suggests that people who don't agree with you are judged (by you) to have fallen away from God and His order....
Jeepers, dear brother in Christ — I just find that sort of thing totally appalling. Where is your Christian charity, your Christian humility?
Did not God say to us, "Judge not, lest ye be judged?"
Ultimately, God will judge me. For you to do that strikes me as being "way above your pay grade."
May the Grace of God be with you.
This comment: "If I didn’t love Free Republic, I’d leave and not bother with all this. I just want Free Republic to redeem its sanity and position in the political world". is hypocritical to say the least.
Kinda funny that professing "love for FR" expresses itself in membership on a website that has an entire forum dedicated to trashing FR and taking part in that bashing.
Also, while you're whining about the numbers on your "snitch" list, take a look at my tagline. Your defense of mormonism is a defense of the trashing of Christianity that is done every single day by mormon missionaries.
While there are 50,000 +/- on the streets of America who have a demonic LOVE of MORMONism, who have no reasoning abilities at all.
