BEING PRO LIFE IS AN ABSOLUTE REQUIREMENT FOR BEING CONSERVATIVE... you might share some conservative ideals but LIFE is a deal breaker.
PREAMBLE TO THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are LIFE, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”

Mitt Romney: "I'm not running as the Republican view or a continuation of Republican values.
That's not what brings me to the race.
(Romney Video, accessed 9/19/07)
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party
over to the traitors in the battle just ended.
We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged
to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support.
Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates
wouldn’t make any sense at all.""
-- President Ronald Reagan

L O L ! Perfect!
All good reasons to oppose Mitt during the primary. He’s certainly not my top choice.
But I don’t think banning people who want to talk about him is the way to go. Of course, I don’t own this site, so I don’t make the rules. But if we are not able to even discuss certain candidates who are pro-abortion, maybe the site would be better named “Anti-Abortion Republic?”
I happen to be Catholic, by the way, and am as vehemently anti-abortion as anyone here. Sometimes, when faced with a choice of two candidates, I will go for the more conservative one. I voted for McCain.
I think the time to slam Romney is during the primary campaign, and discuss his shortcomings. Just my opinion .....
Exactly. This FR stance on Romney (thanks JimRob!) is fatigue with this patently obvious liar. We don't want to re-live the awful 2008 GOP POTUS primary. Romney couldn't beat McQueeg! The 2012 GOP candidate needs to be authentic at their very core. Mitt does not qualify.
Read posts 111, and 127.
GOD bless you Jim! Sing it baby!

If you allow debate on those core principles here then Free Republic becomes a Yahoo! chat room. Preservation of life is one of those principles.
As for Governor Romney, he has proved himself beyond any doubt to be everything conservatives hate about politicians. His only defenders here are the ignorant, the unprincipled, or both.
By the way, I'm surprised you are still here. Several people got purged the other day for asking far more reasonable questions.
I did, and I disagree.
If FR wants to become an echo chamber, it will lose value, IMO.
I recall people here being excited when Scott Brown won, and he is publicly pro-infanticide. The Paulians were ridiculed in the last election, but not banned. George W. Bush was not a conservative, and people who supported him were not banned.
Look, I don’t support Romney. I just don’t think we should not be able to discuss him and ban people who might support him. Better to convince them that there are much better candidates, no?
I was opposed to Brown. Still am.
Brown was not the pro-life thing to do. And as it turns out, he was not the vote against ObamaCare.
Frankly, I could care less about "good" Republicans, a lot of the problems we have right now were caused by "good" Republicans.
Free Republic IS NOT a Republican forum, it's a CONSERVATIVE forum and there is a huge difference.
The liberals on here who are pro-Romney and/or pro-death should either keep their mouths shut so they can learn what conservatism is or they should be zotted.
Interesting how the chandelier in the picture above Romney’s head makes him look like he has a halo. I wouldn’t doubt that was planned.
An angel he ain’t, though.
This is just a warning and one I’ve posted many times in the last couple of years. There will be NO Mitt Romney campaign on FR. Those who try it will be ZOT on sight. Several already have.
FR is a pro-life, pro-family, pro-Liberty site. Those who don’t like it can KMA on the way out the door.
Those who push abortion or commiecare or homosexual rights in my face will be shown the door!! And that includes MittBots!!
Hope you’re reading me loud and clear!!
You forgot athiest veegans. . .those ba$tards!
Don’t push me, pal. I don’t care if FR becomes a ghost time. It ain’t about FR. It’s about our freedom!!
KMA TROLL!!
I rarely get to say that. Usually, I’m IATZ.
I’ve seen it many times, but this is the first time I asked. So in answer to your question, yes, I’ve been here since ‘98 and didn’t know what it means.
