My post was pulled for "politically correct" reasons. I'm done!

The moderator didn't think you guys were intellectually savy enough to see through the title of the post despite the body of the thread shining light on it. Personally, I think you guys are smarter than that, but obviously, he doesn't think so. So I'm done at FR. See you guys on the other side! Keep up the fight for the America we have know and love!

Arcy out.

“we don’t need to give the left any ammunition”

That’s what I’ve been saying about Akin’s comments and I get savagely attacked by Freepers every time for saying the EXACT SAME THING.

I completely understand your frustration. Some of the replies indicate concerns that the Left will use some statements out of context against us. I’ve got news for some of you; the Left will always do that even if they have to make it up. You can’t make them love us by trying to play nice. It’s a slippery slope when you begin to stifle the truth and modify your speech, out of fear of what your opponent may say or do. They’ve made the rules and had home field advantage long enough, screw ‘em. Oh,I’m voting for the white guy too BUT I would have voted for the black guy if the black guy had been Alan West or Herman Cain.

I thought I was the only one thinking that same thing, it is an ever increasing phenomenon.

The liberal media has been danged without much help from anyone in Conservative land. Everyone knows (here) the liberal media speaks with a forked tongue, as do all liberals. Think of the sound bites. Heck even zer0 would have probably mentioned us tonight. On second thought, that may have been a good thing, though now that the situation has been moderated, the liberal media and zer0 is left without ammo. It is going to be fun to take the Senate hill, and hold the House hill. Mitt is not perfect and those who are like Mr. Akin will help hold Mitt's feet to the fire. When dealing with hypocrisy one had best fight amongst ourselves; be like siblings and stand together to defeat those in the liberal media. It is taking place, as am typing. May it continue. btw ... this is an opinion. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the liberal media were as honest?

I am a youngin compared to you. Please, if you disagree; Break my heart, body, and soul.

And yet it is perfectly OK if a black man says on TV or writes in that he is voting for the black candidate because he is black. What’s good for the goose should be good for the gander...but I agree, Arcy could have re-worded the title to protect FR from repercussions so it would have been acceptable to FR and given us the benefit of his thoughts.

I was savagely attacked for posting an Akin article...

 

Waaahhhhh, waahhhhh, waaahhhhh.

You HATE Rep. Akin. So yeah... you got the flames. And don't try to tie this thread into your anti-Akin agenda. There is no similarity.

Hypocracy? Whatev. Post your own dam opus.

Sorry, I’m confused.
Both candidates are white.

Actually, rooting for "the White Guy" could mean one is pulling for Obama to win the debate.

He's just as white as he is black.

In fact, it has been stated that his nominal father had some Arab blood. Therefore, Obama would actually be more white than black.

A long, long time ago he chose for long-range political purposes to pretend he's predominantly black....and he isn't.

That being said, the average lumpen reader doesn't know all this history and background....and the liberal media doesn't care to acknowledge it....so it's better under certain circumstances for FR not to display unnecessary inflammatory buzz-words. It just hands the Left too-easy ammunition.

I believe the Mod was correct and evinced political savvy in his/her suggestion to the poster to change the title.

Many times it's good strategery to fall back a step to gain 10 steps later on.

It's also good strategery to use a stiletto rather than a sledgehammer to get a point across.

Which “white” guy was being referred to? Unlike LA in the past, I don’t consider 7% black and 50% white to be black. We have two white guys running this election cycle. One is a fast socialist and the other is a slow socialist. While I can’t gin up any enthusiasm for him I will vote for the slow one with the hope that we will have enough time to behead that monster, socialism.

The irony here is thicker than a koran. Obama is also white. There are 2 white guys running.

Omoslem is 50% White....

....44% Arab....

....yet only 6% Black.

Obama is the first arab-American president.

"Is that why they changed his title to Blog Pimp Moderator?"

Someone has to do it now that HumbleGunner is gone. (What did he say this time?)

It’s getting to the point where everything sucks all the time.

That's pretty good. I may have to change my tagline.

You either care what the media thinks or you don’t.

It changes hourly here on FR

I agree with you and I guess that makes two of us.

We cannot live in fear of how we are characterized.

and as to be expected I see posters on this thread high fiving who are known to me as low octane on culture war but high on bigot finger pointing and do just that

this is how the GOP establishment thinks and it may fail for them yet again in a few weeks

or if we are lucky the distaste for Obama will get Romney over the top

it won't be because he did it by fighting Obama like he did Newt

just look at the team around him

as for Arcy’s title ..maybe it could have been worded a bit more clarifying...it was in jest but it wasn't that bad

but for some here...and they have always been here...they come and go...the race sensitive sorts with their own agendas they are rarely truthful about...they live to preen over perceived racism here

I got news for anyone not stupid but white against anyone racism is about the least of any problem we have facing us today...it has almost become a unicorn

but for our enemies...they are openly anti-white, anti-Christian, anti-heterosexual, anti-family, anti-business and so forth

bigoted to their very core

yet we sit around wringing our little paws over something that might make us look bad...lol...it doesn't matter what we do...they will find something

if we let that fear define us...we lose..mark my words

Arcy:...nut up and come back...they yank my replies all the time...depends on what part of the country that particular mod is from usually...it ain't the end of the world...as usual the softies have streamed back in from their anti freeper perches to mingle with us and grace us with their presence..so please stay..we need folks who don't bend the knee in fear of offense

i don't blame the mod...have no clue who any of them are these days..they are just the medics on the field basically..sometimes they stumble..(Palin)..other times not so bad...I sure wouldn't want the job...not that anyone would ask me..lol

Did you give any consideration to “I’m pulling against the Halfrican in tonight’s debate!”?

Silly Arcy. You must not offend the savior Obama (or the prophet Mohammed). Haven’t you been paying attention to current events? Just last week the WON gave us all a lecture about what speech is permitted and what isn’t. Just this morning, Zbigniew Brzezinski reminded you of your free speech limitations. After all, we can’t have Rachel Madcow angry with us. How will that make us look? Remember who YOU are and remember YOUR place.
