I’ll admit his language was a bit rough, but calling the practice of nominating solid Tea Partiers as candidates “a mistake” isn’t going to win you a lot of praise around here. Good day.

And maybe it’s worth pressing a candidate who might lose this time around, if that candidate really is better. The lost battle may prove great training for a later victorious war. Putting this kind of philosophical view on (and it’s more than spin because it’s based in God’s own modus operandi) could greatly help.
“But if he could, it would be interesting, as that would mean he had signed up before JimRob did.”
Ah, you got that one.
Yep, that was him!
LOL I remember. :)
Yuck! FR used to be proud of being a family friendly forum. Those days are long gone.
I read the thread. Heck, I posted on the thread prior to this poster. He didn't get slammed.
Toughen up cupcake.

To TBLH seems some here are the age of high schoolers and act accordingly. But it says a lot that after lurking you still became a member to take part in the discussion. They treat just about everyone with the same disregard but most accept it and carry on. Why? Because they do mean well and are truly descent people. All in the same boat and most times row the boat as a team. BTW, nice to meet you-a newbie myself who lurked for several years. Still getting the feet wet. FR-thanks for being here. Back to Stockman and Cornyn...Know nothing about Stockman, so any attributes you might want to share would be appreciated. Cornyn has been at bat for far too long.
I think you see the point: you’re not immune, yourself, from the misbehavior you’re whining about.
Lightening up and toughening up on your part *might* be the solution you’re looking for. As a bonus, that doesn’t depend upon *anyone* else’s behavior — you’re in total control.
You think this is bad? Go register at Zero Hedge and post something stupid like this.
I’ve been on here since the CLINTON MADNESS and I say everybody just CHILL!!!
Unlike you, I totally reject ‘theology’ and stick with the tell-it-like-it-is attitude of that guy that made a whip and cleared the temple of theologians and their support sellers.
I don’t need anyone’s praise. His language was no better than what Bashir said about Palin. I know the Tea Party can find better candidates than some we have had in the past, in the mold of Ted Cruz, Mike Lee. We live and learn. But I will say that a Tea Party candidate is always better than a GOPe.
Raise the level of debate, refrain from below the belt name-calling, is my main point. I tend to stay out of other state’s primaries, unless it is a high-profile name, like Liz Cheney, then I might say something because I know her history.
You are establishment on FR!
Well, that PROVES you're part of the FR-e!
