Interesting turn of events...just yesterday I posited on your thread about what it would take for healing here on FR and then I run across this.

Is there no room in the FR “tent” for those who truly believed and bought, lock, stock and barrel what FR was selling?

Conservatism in its truest form?

Yet, here we are. Those who are dissenting against the compromise find themselves being told to “GTFO”.

I also see a hell of a lot of chortling, high fiving, back slapping and congratulatory remarks about JR’s compromise on this thread.

And yet, still a lot of sniping and outright hand grenade throwing at those who stood with JR during his “rebellion”. This indicates to me that many of those who were AB0’s in the beginning are not the least bit interested in healing.

An echo chamber is what FR is becoming, no dissent allowed.

I'm sure you read a whole lot more before you came across my humble suggestion to the poster in question so I will not assume that you are ignorant of the excessive and repetitive shrieks of outrage generated by that individual.

There is plenty of room under the “tent”, however there should be no room whatsoever for disrupters and agitators who choose to behave like monkeys with diarrhea under that tent, shrieking ad nauseum and ad infinitum, squirting their watery excrement everywhere, making the tent an odorous and offensive place for all, showing absolutely no respect or consideration for the owner of that tent, indeed insulting and assaulting the owner with malicious intent, benefiting NO one. If such lunatic simians are unable to behave and/or will not leave of their own accord, they should be removed from the tent for the greater good. Let them sling their sh*t elsewhere.

I also see a hell of a lot of chortling, high fiving, back slapping and congratulatory remarks about JR’s compromise on this thread.

I have seen supportive comments made to JimRob, many of them highly sympathetic to the obvious difficulty of the decision which he made, as many others have made. However I have seen no 'chortling', 'high fiving' or 'back slapping', perhaps you were on some other thread?

And yet, still a lot of sniping and outright hand grenade throwing at those who stood with JR during his “rebellion”. This indicates to me that many of those who were AB0’s in the beginning are not the least bit interested in healing.

You go take a look at the posts of the leading simian disruptor, their dredging up past comments made by JimRob, slamming him over the head with them, and calling him nearly every name in the book. 'Healing' begins with those who find themselves disagreeing with JimRob's decision to either focus on those many remaining conservative positions that everyone can agree on, and if they are unable to STFU about their displeasure and disappointment about FR now supporting the only chance of defeating 0bama, then they should do exactly as I suggested in my #1026, which is to GTFO, and I make no apologies for that.

An echo chamber is what FR is becoming, no dissent allowed.

Big difference between 'dissent' and throwing those hand grenades you speak of at those who are now united and working to defeat that Kenyan bastard in the White House who IS our common enemy.
