Do you own FR?

Do you know the defination of what a FORUM is? or a BLOG?

Conservative does not equal GoP. And hate is not conservatism.

Thank you for the links. Not that I didn’t know.

But you should not assume everybody is as idiotic as you.

I don't, but I volunteer for the guy who does. One minute you're decrying RINOs, and the next you are supporting Ah-hold and Eric Holder. All the while telling long-timers how FR should be run while spewing insults. Maybe next you're going to tell us that the First Amendment means you can post whatever you want here in screaming uppercase.

The issue is simple really.

This country belongs to all of us.

Like many citizens, I evaluate a person’s qualifications based on their CV’s and NOT their POLITICAL PARTY.

So if Eric Holder has the qualifications, then he is ok.

If Arnold has the qualifications, then he is ok.

If Ms. Palin has the qualifications, then she is super ok.

Time is gone when we do a political ideoloy litmus test.

Those times are gone. We are in new territory now.

SOLUTIONS matter to people more than POLITICAL PARTY tests.

And then you turn around and decry RINO candidates. Do us all a favor and make up your mind.

The Dems should be populists and Repubs should be principled. It's that simple. Arnold is an embarrassment; new to the country and arrogant enough to think populism is the future of the party.

Conservatism is beyond party lines. Its a real philosophy and principled movement.

Conservatism also respects institutions and rules and respects diversity of people, ages and religions.

So if a person in power chooses someone who is not a conservative to hold an important office, so be it.

Conservatism does not demand that we force politicians to only appoint conservatives.

So far, nobody has told me convincingly why Eric Holder lacks the qualifications to be AG.

Nadda!!!

The AM was talking about Free Republic, which is private property and DOES NOT have any free speech.

Interesting, I thought you were a CONSERVATIVE.

Members of the Senate (in theory) vote for political appointees based on their qualifications. However, as citizens we should vote for a politicians based on their qualificatons AND their political beliefs.

For someone who just signed up today, your posts rather bold, but also amusing and conflicting. My guess is that you are cutting and pasting them from someplace.

“Time is gone when we do a political ideoloy litmus test.”

LOL! What’s your “ideoloy”? Trollism?

“Conservatism is beyond party lines.”

It’s not in the democrap party of Eric “pardon Marc Rich” Holder. And by the way it’s an “ideoloy”.

Good post! Would you happen to know if Sarah Palin’s FULL SPEECH to the governor’s association is posted anywhere on Free Republic? I’ve done some rudimentary searching (on FR and in Google) and haven’t seen anything (yet). FReegards, FRiend.
