The voter rebellion is on! Who should lead: Cruz or Trump? Both?

Fantabulous! Boffo! Bitchin' good!

Remember those words? LOL.

I've read all the posts through #174.
Such a pity some of the worst offenders either haven't seen your powerful message or have purposely neglected to reply.

"Trashing our fellow FReepers is something that should never be done. This is going to be a long fight and we do not want to lose too many of our friends."

Hmmm. I wonder how we're to deal with these dual members of that oppostion, echo chamber site wherein these members trash you and several of us on a regular, daily basis and recommend the withholding of donations in leiu of opuses, like the emotional, troll, who 'damned us all to hell,' libbylu?

IIRC, that suggestion came from the wise, duplicitious elder, Marcella. I know, I know, Marcella kicked-in $20 for your Chinese dinner. Guilt trip, no doubt. "Bless her heart."

ALL, please DRASTICALLY REDUCE your visits to FR or stop visiting it altogether. It needs to be deprived of site hits as well as donations. I've been donating to FR almost every quarter for going on 14 years, and most of the times those donations were $80 to $100. Four times a year. During that time, I have visited it probably daily several times a day; the only times I've missed checking in on FR for days is when I've been away from the internet for days AND between Aug & Nov of 2012, when it became a waste of time because it refused to allow free opinion expressed against a leftist Republican.

FR has become exactly as useful as a digital salad fork.

When it becomes genuinely useful and informative again I'll return and bump its traffic hits constantly again. It WAS my first pick choice to find out what's going on in the world of conservative thinking and debate as well as the world at large. Now it can only provide as biased and stilted a view as the sources it once replaced so its usefulness has ended at least temporarily.

The best way to help FR return to its roots is to visit it only every once in awhile and to stop donating. Otherwise we're just giving a junkie clean needles.

Thank you so much for your inspired words and continuing efforts. I am sorry that was unable to donate more just now.

[Jane Long]

God bless you, Jim.

And, may God shed His grace on America.

Your comments are excellent.

For the past six months I have become increasingly concerned about the unfriendly comments being sent from one FReeper to another.

For many years Free Republic has been my source to get a conservative viewpoint of some liberal hogwash published in MSM.

Recently, it seems the focus of Free Republic participants is to yell louder than the person is yelling on the other side.

I pray the Free Republic principles are kept in mind—

“As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.”

[RitaOK]

Thank goodness. I thought some would never sober up from that pipe dream in spring time.

[Impy]

Both? There can be only one. Let it be Duncan MacLeod Ted Cruz.

Excellent, dear Jim! Thank you!

Ping to Jim Robinson’s excellent editorial about the elections !

[HandyDandy]

Trump or Bust

[Windflier]

Thanks for the ping. I read JimRob’s excellent article earlier. It’s one of the best things he’s written in a long time. The man’s still got it, doesn’t he?

[Milhous]

Thank you. At this point my political ambitions are modest: to keep a dynasty out of the White House. Too bad that America will probably get stuck with Imperial family sooner or later, judging by what happened to Rome.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

Both would be fine with me

Yes, indeed!

They're already trying to set Chelsea up.

Same here.

[Beowulf9]

That is exactly right. Let’s all work together. There is a lot at stake here.

[Albion Wilde]

Like Rush says, I hope Cruz (and Rubio) are learning from Trump's boldness and audacity.

The reason Trump has that boldness and audacity is because he is beholden to no one. The others, not so much.

I forget which of the founding fathers said it. "We will either hang together or hang separately."

Benjamin Franklin. "Gentlemen, we must all hang together, or surely we will hang separately."
