“It seems that I was away from my computer for twenty four hours and Jim Robinson posted his best defense of conservatism EVER!”
I wouldn’t go so far as to say that. It was a good post, and I like the fact that we finally have an idea of what is meant by “conservative” on FR.
The side effect of this thread has been the large number of zots and suicides by mod. Some long time posters.
Booyah!
You are a good gpapa and a smart one too!

Well, you’re wrong. I was a California Republican from a young teen until I moved to GA five years ago.
I knew MANY totally pro-life women. Maybe you should figure out how many of those women were encouraged or forced to get abortions by a “Republican” “man”. Your numbers are ridiculous, because men can’t get abortions.
No, it is not my point to say people are, or are not, patriotic or don't believe in God. Perhaps there are those who disagree with the positions put forward that would realize there are divergences with patriotism and with belief in God.
If so, so be it.
I guess it wasn’t really a good idea after all.
Well that puts it in a stark contrast, and pretty says it all doesn’t it?
RINO he is, the cross dressing thing does not help either.
Sorry JJ - mods said “no thanks” ;’{
In your case with Rudy, you're a twue conservative.
Oh well.
Place Mark......
Dancing upon a FReeper's grave makes you giddy...
especially because your inbox is overflowing with laughter.
You do not speak for conservatives.
Your twisted glee (e.g. "ADIOS TWIT!", "Go screw yourself, you little twit,""dont let the cat cover you up when you head back to your sandbox", and "you can follow Miss Katie right on out the door bucko") sanctioned by FReepmail ballot LOLs does not make your behavior appropriate or conservative. Nor does it resemble anything Christ-like. Hypocrisy such as yours is defenseless for a conservative, and in the eyes of God.
As far as the majority of women getting abortions being, or rather identifying themselves as, *Chrisitian*, so what? Are we talking the twice a yearers? Those who claim Christianity because they're not muslim or atheist or because they were raised in some church and have nothing else to put down? A woman who was a real Christian wouldn't abort murder her own child.
You don't know and your statistics don't support your contention.

Wow, I’m less than 600 posts behind now.....
Pro Life Catholic Woman pings....
and I raise you one pro life Catholic boy
Although granting him all due respect for his efforts of and after 9-11, I’ve been searching elsewhere past Rudy, McCain and the others for a primary candidate to back.
Hopefully Thompson will be that candidate, I like most of what I’ve read on his positions and stances. However, until he declares a candidacy, and actually wins the nomination I’m not shutting the door on consideration of any republican nominee.
Would I hold my nose and vote Rudy or even McCain...I’m still deciding that one. I’ve had it drummed into me since childhood about the responsibility of voting, so I don’t believe I’d sit out any election especially one so important. Would I be happy about holding my nose...certainly not. I too, am darned tired of that. But I won’t discount that possibility or necessity, especially at this early juncture.
That’s where I stand at this point. We’ve lost some very good freepers over all this, and I will miss many of them especially Peach.
I trust my current stance won’t be viewed as contrary to the purpose of the site where I’ve considered myself a guest for all these...yikes, five going on six years now.
But that decision is ultimately yours Jim.
