So you are wrong.

So you are wrong.
I'm not wrong. The selection of a non-conservative will elect Hillary and destroy the Reagan coalition. Period.
The GOP can survive losing an election. But it cannot survive the abandonment of its principles and platform.
What is "traditional" about favoring abortion and gun control?
First you are going to have to point me to a dictionary that decodes your messages. You use so much jargon half the time I have to guess what you mean.
I did get a whole pile of mails about the deep history. Funny stuff on the whole...Tales of buses, shacks, and fences and other oddities. Gotta say EV you are an industrious and dedicated fellow. Tip o'the hat to you.
Ah, I see you've been communicating with the antifreepers and their folks who remain here. Interesting.
JMC....you miss the point. The is a difference between favoring something and not giving a damn about it. Many traditionalists don't give a damn about abortion or want to end late term abortions only. Many traditionalists dont care about handgun control and definititely think automatic weapons are a bad idea except for the military.
What Traditionalists care about is low taxes, small government, a strong defense, deregulation and keeping government out of our lives as much as possible. The Bible, ID, Prayer in schools, Abortion et al are private manners and none of our damn business. Believe what you want. Just don't compell me to believe what you do. It's that Liberty thing you see. The Traditionalist hated it when liberal culture vultures try to define the culture with their odious stamp and now hate it when conservative culture warriors try to brand the nation with their notions " moral correctness". Bloviating sanctimony, liberal or conservative is annoying as hell.
How is Rudy better than Hunter in ANY of these fields?
Thank goodness for that. As much as some of these left-leaning freepers annoy me, it wouldn't be nearly as interesting around here without them.
My point is that, correct me if I'm wrong, using the term "Keyester" is akin to calling a supporter of Alan an ass. At least that's how I interpret it.
You're noot even attempting to hide your retread status.
Well, THAT is something I didn't know ... but I think the idea that it does has some merit. I may just have to stop using it as that is not what I meant to convey.
Keyes Supporters does just fine!
Like I said...I got some mail. They were advocates for their flavor. One was Romneyite and another was Giulianist. One was an Ancient Freeper Sage and another was a newbie. So you wanna expand on the story and set me straight or not? Here's your chance...Send it in mail if you like. I did find it fascinating.
Who do you think you're fooling? The first time you came to my attention, I went back and looked at the day you so seamlessly appeared under this screenname and started attacking good conservative people. You're as obvious a retread as I've ever seen here.
The 2nd Amendment is the cornerstone of traditionalism and conservatism. People who believe in restricting ANY part of the Bill of Rights are NOT conservative. If you are indeed new here, which I'm increasingly doubting, please take some time to read the FR home page and check out the mission statement. You'll see that the mission of Free Republic is to defend Constitutionalist conservatism. If you come on here and advocate RKBA restriction, your stay here will be very short. Believe me, I've seen it before. On a side note, does it disturb you that I can name at least 50 posters on Democratic Underground who are better than you on the 2nd Amendment?
What Traditionalists care about is low taxes, small government, a strong defense, deregulation and keeping government out of our lives as much as possible.
Then why in the world would you support someone who says...
Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do.
Abortion et al are private manners and none of our damn business.
Is murder of adults a private matter that is none of our business?
Bump for later reading
Rudy lisps and is liberal. How in the world would he be better in a Republican primary debate?
Don't worry....Word play with Candidate names has an FR tradition. Eg. McInsane, Rudy McRomney, Hitlery, Clintoon, Duncan Hines, Keyester, Dukookoo, Scary Kerry, Obamanation. The sudden outrage at name bending is hilarious...
Use whatever you like best...
Are they talking about you, honey?
You certainly know a lot about "FR traditions" for somebody who's been here all of a month.
I guess I could take the time to respond to your post but that would you to post the same quotes that you have posted countless times before. I've heard your arguments many times before. They do not impress me. We will just have to disagree. I didn't accept the liberals brand of coercion and I won't be compelled accept yours either.
