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?
So you have developed a new tactic to go after Reagan and try to bring his memory down to Rudy's level. You say you observed him while you were a volunteer in his campaign because you think no one can question the slime you throw on him then? That is so lowlife.
Told you Jim. Lets be honest, Peach was begging to be banned. You simply obliged her. Good move.
Just as we have seen here on FR--with a group of conservatives (some real conservatives and some not-quite-so) who more-or-less agree in philosophy (again, some more-so,,,,and some less-so) completely DIVIDED and SPLIT totally apart--
we will see the EXACT same thing next year. It is sad here now,,,,and it would be even sadder next year (with much greater consequences, very negative and much longer-lasting). Isolating and ignoring the traditional base is especially short-sighted because the traditional base carries a party's bedrock, core principles with it.
Hopefully, we as a Party can learn from what has happened here on FR (with its look into the future, if you will). If we, as a Party, don't have the foresight, prescience, and common sense to see what will happen to our Party next year (based on what we have seen here on FR right now)--then, well,,,,,
you can fill in the rest.
There, accurate, and true.
The youths really dig the way Rooty’s eyes nearly bulge out of his skull every time a new thought crosses his mind. They think it’s wicked cool.
Up yours asswipe.

Time to update the rules?
Please enjoy our forum, but also please remember to use common courtesy when posting and refrain from posting personal attacks, profanity, vulgarity, threats, racial or religious bigotry, or any other materials offensive or otherwise inappropriate for a conservative family audience.
I quit posting to her several months ago when she made some idiotic Nazi comment in her response to my post. It had nothing to do with the issues we were discussing, but she threw it out there to try to provoke me. I didn’t take her bait, I simply never posted to her again. She doesn’t debate fairly or intelligently. She debates purely on emotions—like a liberal.
Who? Why any strawman you care to construct could do that. The strawman is the mischaracterization of opposition to a liberal Republican as impugning his conservative credentials or his moral authority.
It is fair to inpugn and question anyone. It is also fair to decry the tone of that opposition.
But, Ted Olsen puts his pants on the same way I do.
Rules?
Think that one over for a second...
Then, meekly, apologize to JR.
And those nasty rudy supporters usually calm it down for Jim. Some of the worst know how to suck up. Peach, I guess wasn’t smart enough? She wasn’t even as bad as some of them either, and thats saying they are bad because peach was down right mean.
You’re putting on quite a display.
Yeah, I’m getting ‘rummy’, sorry.
It is quite late for me. But this has been a hoot.
One of the many things I love about Boise is the presence of so many Oakland fans. I just love showing off my Super Bowl 37 hat, T-shirt, etc. I often invite Raiders fans I know over to watch my DVD of the game...Gannon drops back, he's looking, OH NO...brought down by #55 Derrick Brooks!
What a beautiful night that was...too bad Gruden forgot how to "coach to win", instead of "coaching not to lose". Be good.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
First we were treasonous liberals. Now I’m an idiot and a liar.
>>>>>You three are nothing of the sort.
Peach, M.Thatcher and veronica are die hard RudyBoosters. I'm tired of trying to figure out if they've just sold out conservatism, or they're actually gone liberal. And at this point, I don't give a rats arse either. Peach has been banned and I hope the other two follow her. I hope JimRob makes these bannings permanent too.
There are times to reach out and be a big tent party. Primary’s are never that time. The General election is rarely that time. I see little difference between Joe Lieberman and Rudy Giuliani except that Lieberman has a more honest assessment of what he believes. While you might let a Giuliani in the tent for a vote on WOT he would make a leader.
