Why Is Free Republic Allowing Liberal Trolls To Stay?

Ditto that

I have never advocated giving citizenship to illegal immigrants. However you are absolutely right in term of politics, 70% of Hispanics voted for Obama and that was a very important factor in his victory last November. Again I repeat, I have never advocated giving citizenship to illegal immigrant and I will never will. In fact now, I agree with you that illegal immigrants should never be granted any type of amnesty even just a simple work visa.

"Or google jveritas and illegal immigration."

The accuser gets to prove his accusation. If you can't, then you are spreading lies about a fellow FReeper.

I have been "accused" of being a Mormon by the bigot brigade.

It's kinda funny that you put it that way.

I wont ask if you ARE Mormon because it's irrelevant but I'm living in Utah and I gotta say that Mormons are some of the most biggoted people I've ever met. Not racially, but against those that aren't Mormon - especially when it comes to children.

The attitudes and behaviors associated with Christ are love, humility, compassion, patience, kindness, selflessness, being a good servant-leader. Wagglebee has exhibited none of these on this forum. In fact, as soon as he gets a post that may challenge him the first thing he does is ping his list. If Wagglebee is the one you have chosen to follow at his beck and call, look a little higher source for guidance.

It's clear you know nothing about wagglebee.

Envy much?

If Jim Robinson or his designated moderators ask me to leave, or ban me, then that's their prerogative to do so, as he does own the site. I won't dispute that, and if I get asked to leave five minutes from now by him or the Admin Moderator, I would do so. I would expect you to do so if I asked you to leave my property, after all.

However, there are many other people who have taken it upon themselves to designate as trolls anyone who is not in lockstep with them on every issue. I take issue with those people who think they know the mind of the owner completely, or think they are the final arbiters of what's conservative. They're not.

*** DING DING DING *** No more calls; we have a winner!

[NoGrayZone]

Well, I'm not. I don't know any Mormons in real life, but I know a few here on FR and now we are linked to facebook.

They have always been very kind and true champions for Conservatism, and a loving fear of God.

I don't judge a whole crowd by some (well, except for the illegals because they're all here illegally). If I did that, I would have to hate everyone.

It would be more productive if the subtle techniques that trolls use were listed. Like the trolls who subtly get the reply threads going off on a tangent. What other subtle techniques are used by trolls?

"Well...sometimes I go to bed late at night. A couple of times...a couple of times I'd come out on the porch and I'd see Mr. Goodman here in the wee hours of the morning standing out in front of his house...looking up at the sky. That's right. Looking up at the sky as if... as if he were waiting for something...."

[steve-b]

Ooooh! I've got one!

[ansel12]

What name were you posting under from August of 2007 and February of this year?

[adorno]

Looks like I did read far enough back and wasn’t so far off in my assessment after all.

I asked you to re-read my posts to show me where I equated RINOs with conservatives. You failed to show where I did any such thing. And, you can't show any such thing because I never said such a thing.

You are way off on your assessment. So, your assessment is nothing but a lie.

[trisham]

Good question.

[Moose4]

I think I saw an MM posting a few months ago. I swear I think the Mods leave her around only for the humor value, and the fact that when she hits-and-runs, it usually adds about 50 posts to the thread, many of them entertaining.

If anyone thinks by just being a Republican means they are Conservatives just look at those in the GOP who supported the bailouts (Buyouts) of GM and Chrysler, or those who supported the Bill of Attainder for the AIG folks, or Olympia Snowe’s proposed law to give control of the internet completely over to Obama, etc... etc... etc...

There are conservative republicans. And there are RINOs.

And then, there are those that are confused by the whole issue of "what constitutes a conservative?".

By the way, perhaps you can define what you believe makes a person a conservative. What are the issues and where does a conservative stand regarding the issues? Generic understanding is not enough sometimes.

You and metmom sound confused. metmom addressed both you and me about RINOs not being conservatives. And, I agreed and you seemingly agreed in a prior post about RINOs not being conservatives. Why belabor the point?

So, why continue revisiting the question when both you and I and even metmom agree on the basic definition of what a conservative is not. And, a RINO is not a conservative. In fact, many RINOs are closer to liberals than they are to being republicans, much less being conservative. An example of that is Colin Powell who made a very smooth transition to being a liberal. We knew him as a RINO who held more democrat positions than republican positions. And, once he made the move to support the most liberal candidate for president eve, there was no question as to what Powell's politics and allegiance were. Arlin Specter was another good example. And there are many others.

So, get over your confusion about what I believe and what you believe and what metmom believes. We're all in agreement and you don't need to issue any other posts to point out how RINOs are different from conservatives. Heck, RINOs are not even republicans. That's why they're called "republicans IN NAME ONLY".

I hope I've cleared up the subject for you and I hope you won't seem so confused anymore about what I believe and what you believe.

there just didn’t seem to be any fire in Thompson’s belly for the campaign.

***IIRC, pissant was given a timeout or two for expressing exactly that sentiment. But Libtard trolls roam free, and the RINOs who are symbiotic with them.

Really for stating the truth? Did you feel that was a suspendable offense? As I recall Fred took forever to make a decision even to run. Should I be suspended for also thinking that Thompson just didn't seem to be campaigning very hard?

[GovernmentShrinker]

She is currently in “Nobody by that name” status. I couldn’t recall seeing any posts by her in years, but maybe I just don’t hang out on her type of threads.

[adorno]

You don't know many, do you? Liberals are boring and all they want to do is talk trash - so buzz off.

Okay, since you insist...

Point out any part of any post, in this thread or any other thread where I've posted, where I hold any kind of "liberal" position?

So, stop being childish about calling me a liberal and start growing up a bit.

This whole thing is WAY above your head.

There! See?

You're the only one here behaving badly. You are behaving exactly the way liberals at other forums behave. Perhaps you need to visit the DailyKos and DU, and HuffingtonPost and MoveOn.org. Chances are that after reading a few posts in any of those forums, you'll recognize how similar you sound to them, and then perhaps it will be a lesson to you to try to behave with more civility. But, who am I kidding? It's apparent that, since you already have the same posting skills as the people in those forums, that you have been frequenting them already and very often.

Thanks for proving my point

You haven't made any coherent points so far, so you must be imagining things.

you do have some value.

You're quite right. One of those values is pointing out how similar or exactly alike you are to the ultra-left radical loonies.

News Flash ~ This is America, and we can think and say what we believe.

You've obviously never heard of hate crimes legislation. Including the bill currently under consideration whereby a pastor could be jailed for simply preaching what the bible says about homosexuality.

[Mr. Silverback]

Whoa...Flash traffic! That’s a first if I’m not mistaken.
