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?

Thomas Jefferson :
“On every question of construction of the Constitution, let us carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted, recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text, or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was passed.”
awe.. shyla is gorgeous. enjoyed lunch last week. off to a NFL draft & the Cav’s game party shortly... You have a nice weekend.. doesn’t this weather stink? if it is cold, damp & dark you can bet it is a weekend in Ohio.

Seems I've missed a bit. Looks to me like Howlin and nopardons are gone? Just curious did they opus out or were they banned?
BTW, I'm not one bit sorry about nopardons.....unfortunately I had to cut my newbie teeth against her...nobody gets to be that mean to almost everyone without some sort of consequences at some point, IMHO
Didn’t happen here...don’t know the details.
We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

“Do you really expect me to do that?”
I pray that you and other dedicated conservatives, never do change their dedication to the constitution and the principles that our ancestors fought and died for.
Similar to something that was said by a Scotland Yard official recently, in defense of surveillance and other measures that to some seem to fall outside the protection of rights: British common law was not devised to counter those who want to poison or irradiate the public.
I’m glad she is gone.
They went with a whimper, not a bang, it would seem.

The transformation of the GOP into Democrat Party Lite?
It’s not going to be DNC Lite; it’s going to be a more moderate conservative party though; you all have had your foot on our necks for too long.
This country has to be governed in the middle; the world has moved on from the 50’s.
The Contract with America will unite this party again. But we’re not going to let you make abortion and guns the big issues this time around.
