We've got some real challenges facing us. FR was established to fight against government corruption, overstepping, and abuse and to fight for a return to the limited constitutional government as envisioned and set forth by our founding fathers in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and other founding documents.
One of the biggest cases of government corruption, overstepping and abuse that I know of is its disgraceful headlong slide into a socialist hell. Our founders never intended for abortion to be the law of the land. And they never intended the Supreme Court to be a legislative body. They never intended God or religion to be written out of public life. They never intended government to be used to deny God's existence or for government to be used to force sexual perversions onto our society or into our children's education curriculum. They never intend for government to disarm the people. They never intended for government to set up sanctuary cities for illegals. They never intended government to “rule” over the people and or to take their earnings or private property or to deprive them of their constitutional rights to free speech, free religion, private property, due process, etc. They never intended government to seize the private property of private citizens through draconian asset forfeiture laws or laws allowing government to take private property from lawful owners to give to developers. Or to seize wealth and redistribute it to others. Or to provide government forced health insurance or government forced retirement systems.
All of the above are examples of ever expanding socialism and tyranny brought to us by liberals/liberalism.
FR fights against the liberals/Democrats in all of these areas and always will. Now if liberalism infiltrates into the Republican party and Republicans start promoting all this socialist garbage, do you think that I or FR will suddenly stop fighting against it? Do you think I'm going to bow down and accept abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, global warming, illegal alien lawbreakers, gun control, asset forfeiture, socialism, tyranny, totalitarianism, etc, etc, etc, just so some fancy New York liberal lawyer can become president from the Republican party?
Do you really expect me to do that?
Condescension is another hallmark of evos. Here's a bone wagglebee.
“I enjoy conundrums...”
Different strokes for different folks. Enjoy though.
“Quotations & Conundrums”...Maybe you have a great idea for a book?
Does that mean you’re addding me to the banned list or the list for notification of recently banned, or both!?!?! =)
“It still isn’t anybody else’s business. I don’t care who donates and who doesn’t. All it does is lead to either pride, where someone can flaunt what they’ve given, or judgmentalism for what another is perceived for doing or not doing.”
Wow...Neets and DBR and few other “Kloughns” need to read that quote. Slowly...and repeatedly.

LOL!
Great analogy.
LOL. Yeah. I usually show up at the party after the drama/trauma has already died down.
Were there any good writeups external about it! I’m such a gawker. What’d the DUmmies say?
Naw -- that was just "spirited discussion". ;-)
Now THIS thread, well, it contains several prime examples of virtual
~Buddhist with a gripe + gas and matches~
I always thought I liked my RINO smoked, but after this thread, I've come to realize that they are much better crispy fried. LOL
Take care, radio guy!
You pegged that one.
I’ve seen that kind of behavior, too, and it is hard not to be glad to see it over, for the most part.

“No true Scotsman”
Talking aboot the mighty Scots, are ye?
“A Scotsman was at a baseball game. It was the first time he had ever seen the sport so he sat quietly.
The first batter approached the plate, took a few swings and then hit a double. Everyone was on their feet screaming “Run, Run!” This happened two more times, with a single and a triple. The Scot was now excited and ready to get into the game.The next batter came up and four balls went by. The umpire called “walk” and the batter started on a slow trot to first. The Scotsman, extremely
excited now, stood up and screamed, “R-R-Run ye basstarrd, rrrun!” Everyone around him started laughing. So the Scotsman, extremely embarrassed, sat back down.
A friendly fan, seeing the Scotsman’s embarrassment, leaned over and said, “He can’t run - he got four balls.
“The Scotsman then stood up and screamed, “Walk with prrride,mon...walk with prrride!”
LOL! it appears this has gone beyond crispy straight to Cajun smoked!
You take care as well.
WAh, our cover was blown!
Well, at least a few of 'em.
lol...
wow, only 11,000+ replies?
I’ll concede the point, but where I mix, CINO is more commonly rendered as “Christian In Name Only”. Although, a lot of churches would prolly like Julie-Annie, too. Pro-gay, Pro Choice, Anti-Gun, cross dressing serial divorcer. About the same speed for the “progressive” churches out there.
Seriously, I understand what you mean. CINO means something different for me, though.
Another charming FReeper. Way to jump in a thread.
nudge to 12,000...
or 11,200 rather...
Good clarification... whew.
Please put me on the PING list as well because I don’t have time to catch up with this thread. It is a bit of history in motion.
