This week's topic:

WHY DO CONSERVATIVES EAT THEIR OWN?

Are we our own worst enemies?

Are the divisions so evident in FreeRepublic indicative of the future of the conservative movement?

Can we stand united, or will be fall divided?

RadioFR Archives, Hear the shows you missed

[gunnedah]

They got me,but as Yogi Berra once said "It ant over til its over"!

[lowbridge]

bump

[betty boop]

That's the nopardons I know. Thanks and LOL!

Well Fred, I guess he/she just takes his/her screen name very seriously. So much for civility....

[Bob J]

Wow.

[borkrules]

Bump so I can find the damn URL later.

[Cultural Jihad]

So much for civility....

Well, Don Matthews had raised the 'civility bar' so darned high.

[TLBSHOW]

Bob the people have voted..they want and love Flame wars!

[Triple]

You both are out of control.

Has betty boop ever been less than civil to either of you?

Your present behaviour does nothing but, diminish any remaining credibility you might have.

Good people DO NOT torment others over the death, or illegal activity, of their associates.

You are monsters.

Do you think BB condones the shooting of officer Taylor? You are acting as though you do, and I find it loathsome.

[Fred Mertz]

Agreed. bb is one of my old freeper friends from the March for Justice days. I suppose that makes me guilty by association in some twisted, perverse way. Hi Betty!

[Abundy]

I won't respond to AF anyway. He is a mental midget with issues and wouldn't understand ethics, oaths of office, obligations to Justice and the Constitution, or just plain conservative principles if they bit him on his @ss. I hope he never runs afoul of an ideolouge of like mind in a position of authority - only then will he have a chance of understanding just how wrong he is; but I wouldn't wish that on anyone, it would only make me like him.

Thanks for the heads up, but I just consider the source when he vomits on these threads.

[Abundy]

This should be interesting in light of recent events in Ohio. Frankly, I don't care whether someone here also wants to lower taxes, also wants local control, also wants a smaller government, also wants a strong defense, also wants to close various Federal departments, also is against abortion and unfettered drug abuse, also supports the 2nd and 10th Amendments, or also worships God ... If they shrug at, excuse, or insinuate over the cold-blooded murder of a police officer, if they claim that a traffic stop is a 'constitutional crisis' then they are not really conservatives and should not be allowed to post. If they subscribe to Claire Wolfe's dictum about it being "too early to shoot the bastards" then they really have no good business being here on FR. In short, we don't need any militia ideologue wack-jobs.

Did you happen to catch my post on that thread?

[TLBSHOW]

That is my point. Sad but true.

[bribriagain]

RE: Aske15 "I think your number one fan just showed up;^)"

That would be me, of course.

[Fred Mertz]

I didn't realize she had such a covert following.

[tpaine]

The bottom line is that he was her pal. She agreed with him on a lot of his destructive, crackpot ideas, and now needs to suffer the heat for it.
_________________________________

Nope, The bottom line is that YOU *imagine* that BB is defending his final actions, when she is not, and has said so.

She, and many others, agree on a number of constitutional positions which YOU imagine to be destructive, crackpot ideas.
-- Fine, - can you attack those positions? - You never have.

Instead, you claim that she needs to 'suffer the heat' for defending those principles.
- I suggest you look into your own soul, and motives, -- and let Betty concern her self with hers.

[Abundy]

There is a loud-mouthed element on FR that are 100%, adolescentally aggrieved creeps. They call themselves "true conservatives" and "real patriots". What they are ... is ... real world life losers. Luis ... they want all their rights, with no attendant responsibility. "Me me me. Mine mine mine." No "ours". No "we". That's expected and somewhat cute in a five year old, alarming and needing disciplanary attention in a 12 year old, and too pathetically USUAL in our sick little group of "libertarian" and "real conservative" Freepers these days.

The word "conservative" has been completely co-opted on this forum by a group of people for whom I wouldn't walk across the room to shake their hands. Really rancid, useless folk.

Yup, "conservative" has been co-opted by a bunch of statists that want to eliminate the definition of "individual" when referring to rights protected by the constitution and substitute "we" and "ours".

They don't understand that the constitution doesn't protect any "we" or "our." It protects indivdiuals. Their way is the way of Stalin and Hitler...blind addiction to the "we" and "our" to the exclusion of the individual.

But what the hell do I know, I've just got a BA in History, a JD and have worked in public service long enough to see what happens when ideolouges acheive power in government.....that oesn't qualify me to offer up any opinions so I'll slink back to lurking. (Although this thread has been quite illuminating)
