Mark Levin aka "The Great One" has always been a great constitutional conservative and great friend of Free Republic. Doesn't post much anymore but has had an account here (holdonnow) from nearly the beginning. He stood up for FR when his good friend Hannity was running us down. Also when O'Reilly accused us of not moderating our forum good enough against racism.
I hate to see our good friend getting trashed on FR. I understand why people are upset with him over his position against Trump, but best advice I can give is if you can't stand him, don't listen. I had to quit listening to Beck several years ago after he went nuts, and now rarely tune in Limbaugh. I click on the Mark Levin Show, maybe once per week, just to see if our old trusted ally is back. Sadly, he's still missing in action.
I pray that Rush and Mark come to their senses pretty soon and realize that the primaries are over and the great constitutional conservative Ted Cruz lost. Badly.
We can't go back and we cannot replace our candidate. It's Trump or Hillary. We have to do all we possibly can to make sure Hillary is defeated! And that starts with not bad-mouthing OUR candidate.
There are no do overs and no crying in politics.
Notice that I said "OUR" candidate. This is not like when the GOPe with their big donor bucks installed one of their own sure-losers as the Republican candidate (McCain, Romney, et al) and then told us to suck it up. Which most of us did, even Levin and Limbaugh, because we knew the damage that Obama would do to our country. And he did. And Hillary's damage will be even more severe because she'll be building on Obama's slide into godless socialism and she'll have an immediate shot at packing the courts with godless liberal activists. These judges will be with us for a lifetime. And their rulings for generations. She'll also grant amnesty and voting rights to millions of illegals and throw open our borders to millions more. And then fling the borders wide open for the Muslims. Yup. Sharia law would be coming to a country near you. And the failing Obamacare? No problem. HillaryCare's single payer system will straighten that right out. And she'll save our planet from "climate change" by killing off all our capitalist industries.
Trump was voted in by we the rebellious grassroots voters who are sick and tired and fed up and said NO MAS to the political ruling class and their open borders donors.
This is a voter rebellion and Trump is OUR champion.
We fully intend to crush Hillary and the uniparty in November and reclaim America for AMERICANS!!
Why did we choose Trump to be our champion:
Secure the borders. Build the wall. Enforce the law. End sanctuary cities. Do whatever is humanly possible in deporting as many illegals as we possibly can and or dry up their prospects by enforcing the law and many of them will leave on their own volition.
Slap a temporary moratorium on Muslim immigration until we can find out what in the hell is going on! Meanwhile, bomb the shit out of ISIS. And take their oil. And find out what's going on in the mosques.
Rebuild the military!
Throw out Obama's illegal/unconstitutional executive orders and executive agreements. Repeal Obamacare!
Get a handle on trade deals and make sure Americans come first!
Cut the taxes, cut the spending, cut the regulations, cut the government; return the powers and functions reserved to the states back to the states per the constitution and the 10th amendment.
And it's not just about the constitution and national security:
End the ridiculous war on coal, gas & oil, bring back manufacturing. Drill, baby, drill; mine, baby, mine; build, baby, build, farm, baby, farm, produce, baby, produce. The Business of America is business.
Strengthen our economy and create a business friendly environment!
Jobs, baby, jobs!!
Set our people free and let them produce and prosper!!
This is the voter rebellion we've all been longing for. Even bigger than the tea party. Pray Levin and Rush join us. We need their full-throated support to ensure the defeat of the corrupt, America-hating, capitalism-hating, God-hating Hillary and the election of OUR candidate. Donald Trump!!
One of the slogans from the America revolution was:
Join or die!!
Another:
Don't tread on me.
And who can forget:
Give me Liberty or give me death!!
I look at it this way:
You have to hire someone to watch over your house (our country).
You have two choices:
One person is a businessman builder.
The other is a known arsonist.
Which one do you choose?
Anyone who needs a reminder of what damage the Clintons can do - should go back to the archives and check out Alamo girls posts -I think the thread was called Clintons Downside Legacy -it is an unbelievably long list of all the damage they did and the corruption they got away with.
I don't know why anyone in their right mind would think, even for a second, that giving them the power of the presidency would be anything less than the end of the country.
It would be even worse than the first time they had the WH because they now know that they are above the law.
It would be like giving a can of gasoline and a match to an arsonist. They would burn what's left of this country to the ground.
That said-I don't get why Cruz and Trump can't put their differences aside and work together for the good of the country. They both were unstoppable as a team at the start of the primary.
A note to those Freepers who have gone out of your way to trash Cruz and his supporters-YOU ARE NOT HELPING TRUMP by doing that now.
Many long time Freepers left the site, including me, because of it.
Trump ran a vicious campaign with a lot of over the top and unnecessary rhetoric IMO, but it worked.
The problem is it did a lot of damage too. I think Mark Levin is trying to address that problem. And Trump should too.
He is going to have to win in a landslide to overcome all the dem cheating.
He's (Trump), off to a good start-but if he could bring in more people by repairing some of this damage-all the better for him to win.
If nothing else Never Trumpers should think about this :
It took ALL of the allied countrys to win WWII.
They didn't agree about much, or even particularly like each other - but they had to come toghether to defeat the evil Nazi regime.
Just my two cents.
Glenn Beck is a hopeless case. The others named are still reasonable men. I am watching Trump rallys on you tube vs. listening to talk shows. If folks would watch the Trump rallys, they would see substance there, not sound bytes.
Mark Levin’s a smart guy. He’s got lots of gravitas. I may not be as smart as Levin but suffice it to say that Rome wasn’t built in a day and sometimes highly intelligent folks want to turn everything around in a nanosecond. I don’t think the world works that way. Trump is pulling in independents, democrats and people who have never voted or have not voted in a very long time. Those are not cardboard cutouts lined up outside Trump rallys.
Amen
Levin preaches all this stuff far better than I could ever dream of doing.
Don't worry about Levin, Jim. That one short phrase of yours sums it ALL up so perfectly - and in a nutshell. When I first read it, I just stared at it with admiration.
Thank you very much, Pajamajan!
Thank you very much, Talisker!
Please talk to Jim.
I second what you said.
My prediction is that before the election, Levin endorses Trump. He has to. He just has to.
And, I for one, refer you to post #153.
So, what are you getting at, that I should trouble Jim, on your recommendation?
Who are you to do recommending around here?
No I’m just done with that Asswipe, telling me, I’m stupid!
I listened to Beck the other morning and swear I was listening to a schizophrenic Air America
Mark Levin wrote some very important books.
I have made countless notes on ‘Men in Black’.
More importantly — the LIBERTY AMENDMENTS.
Thomas Jefferson and Hamilton were bitter rivals as well. We shouldn’t expect anyone to be better than those two.
‘If he’s not part of the solution, he’s part of the problem.’
The Federalist Party felt that way when they legislated the Sedition Acts.
I’m agitated with Levin and Glenn Beck and Thomas Sowell, but each one of them did important work in the past and probably will again in the future.
Bob Wiley in ‘What About Bob?’ — “People are like telephones. Just temporarily disconnected.”
‘You can’t be a Globalist and a conservative — Cruz is a Globalist.’
Yes you can be a globalist conservative.
I don’t approve of globalists, but some of them have plenty of useful advice for us if we can wade through the manure.
Nice.
Please identify one “globalist conservative” by name so we can understand what you are talking about.
A globalist is against national sovereignty; i.e. there would be no America if a globalist got their way — there is no Constitution therefore — and no idea of constitutional conservatism, which is what conservatism is all about.
Ted Cruz.
Ted Cruz is doing important work regarding the ‘Internet Givaway’.
He also supports constitutional amendments to restore conservative values. So, he’s arguably a globalist, but he’s also full of great ideas.
As president, he wanted to pull a ‘Lincoln’ on an activist federal court system. Ignore what is unconstitutional.
