You are doing a good job....but there will hopefully ALWAYS be debate among FREE men, and women.
I can imagine what was getting debated, shouted, discussed...in the early 1770's.
It's okay to talk it thru.....
That is where Democrats beat us ... they band together 100% ... even if it is for a yellow dog.
My other idea is free republic has some liberals here that do their best to stir up trouble and create distraction. It works too.
It is disheartening to see the tacky, or rabid responses from some that post here.
We must act for the good and restoration of America ... be torn apart and dispirited and totally ineffective.
Our current Republicans are weak, ineffective and what appears to be cowardly.
God help us in America, restore our Christian values and turn us back to You, forgive us Father for our failures to follow You. in Jesus name amen.
Most of the criticism originates from the Libertarian wing, especially from the Ron Paul disciples. They want Rush and others to trash the GOP and support the Libertarian and Independent candidates. Many have problems the Rush’s personal life, and many others have problems with Beck’s Mormonism. Sometimes I listen to Beck and sometimes to Rush. Beck has gotten so boring lately that I have stopped listening to him for now.
“
It’s okay to talk it thru.....”
There’s a different between talking it through and good healthy debate, and intimidation and mean spirited bullying, which I see here and elsewhere.
REasonable men can agree to disagree. Some folks simply aren’t reasonable.
It’s my worry that we will be so divisive we conquer the conservative movement period.
They are (Beck, Levin, Hannity, Limbaugh, Ingraham and Coulter)all cowards, in it just for the money. They piss on our Constitution for a few dollars. What's your excuse?
Freedom. As in to like who I like and be free to dislike some of the bloviating lightweights as well.
They are entertainers with an agenda all their own, trying to force conservatives to pretend like them all is silly
***We either preserve FREEDOM together with accepting slight differences or we let freedom slip away while we argue. ***
I agree.
There are those who would rather hand us over to the commies than to accept the slightest deviation from their OWN outlook.
If we can’t stand together, we are LOST.
When Rush hit the national scene, Reagan was president. How long was Rush able to forestall the election of a Marxist president?
I was going to say the same thing. They are entertainers, actors if you will. They make millions by being right wingers who say controversial things. If they were true heros, they’d put their money where their mouth is and run for office. But why would they? They are freakin millionaires.
I personally, take them all with a grain of salt.
Troll... thanks for letting us know your true colors... Commie! BTW, where is the proof? Show me the proof.....
Nobody is buying your lies anymore... not even my 12 year kid!
I guess some of us don't necessarily equate preserving freedom with devotion to talk show hosts; and we're a little embarrassed for and about those on our side that do.
His comment was typical of the mean-spirited plants here. So off-the-wall, I wondered for a second what he was saying.
True, these talk show hosts are entertainers, yes, but I do believe they’ve got good intentions. Some of them may be polarizing, some very excitable, some provocative.
And some...or one...Bill Bennett, who is very thoughtful and gives a very inteligent platform.
There are some nuts on every website lol.
On the surface, yes, I agree. However, I believe with an effective leader backed by a strong contingent of the American people, those same Republicans will serve quite well. Washington DC is a hellhole for non-liberals and they need to know we have their backs. These next two elections are crucial. We all need to come together and learn to appreciate what each individual brings to the table. Debating policies and strategies is one thing, needlessly tearing each other apart in the process is only helpful to liberals.
“There are some nuts on every website lol.”
Thanks for reminding us. I’ll be the peanut. Sans salmonella.
:’)
Politics is just a diversion from the truth.
We can’t touch our real enemies through the political process.
>>If they were true heros, theyd put their money where their mouth is and run for office.<<
Not everyone is right for “running for office”.
If I had all the money in the world, I wouldn’t run for office. I’m not wonderfully attractive (kind of matronly) and I wouldn’t subject my family to it. In fact, I was told at one point that I should run for local office and I said NO WAY.
All of them do much better as backers of candidates.
