Unlike Romney's "National Council for a New America," Free Republic is a conservative site!

Refer to Romney's Council for a New American Socialist State formed in HIS Image ^ | May 2, 2009 | Jim Robinson

I am a proud member of conservative oasis.
Three things I want to bring up.
We would have been better off with Romney as president than what we ended up with. This doesn't mean I'm a Mitt supporter, just the facts looking backwards.
Even amongst conservatives there will be differences of opinion. This is a good thing. We all have different life's experiences that we bring to the table. Instead of calling each other names when we don't agree we need to ask that person to explain and justify their views.
Fact and truth should be our goal in every exchange.

This is my favorite site on the internet, and even your weirdness and obsessiveness won’t keep me from supporting it. Romney is a flaming RHINO who should not represent true conservatives in any form, but I did not see Huckabee, McCain, or Pawlenty on your list of ‘one’. Also, I don’t think it is nice to call people ‘wankers’.

Why should the Republican Party have to "reach out" to "moderates" and "broaden their appeal?" Conservatives need to educate voters; awaken them to the fact that in Conservatism lies their (non-spiritual) salvation. You want jobs? Conservatism is the only political philosophy which leads to job creation. You want Liberty? Conservatism is the only political philosophy which embraces personal Liberty. You want security? Conservatism is the only political philosophy which offers security while preserving your Liberty. In every instance, on every issue, Conservatism offers better answers with more freedom and less governmental intrusion and control.

Yes Laura Ingraham has it right.

“Oh, that was in the past.”

That reminds me of a great line in "Throw Momma From the Train,":

"One little murder and I'm Jack the Ripper!"

BUMP !!

The government’s job is not to make us happy. If we decide to be happy, its job is to not screw that up.

A few years ago, it was “Barack who”, so your premise falls flat. Those who refuse to learn from the past are just intellectually lazy and will accept who ever the media annoints as our “acceptable” candidate due to “electability” or what ever other media-created kool-aid the public will swallow.

Those who insist on a Governorship before a nomination also didn’t vote for the only governors in the race, FLIP Romney and Huckleberry from Hope.

We’ll end up with another “maverick” RINO if that’s what we allow to be the method for choosing the RIGHT candidate.

You hit all the right notes.

Even McCain, open border philosophy and all, would have scarcely endeavored to go on a worldwide “apologize for America” trip. His patriotism is in neon colors compared to Obama.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

So what does this mean? That, for example, anyone who might be pro-Romney (and, for the record, I’m not pro-Romney) is not welcome and/or subject to banning if he or she posts something supportive of Mitt?

[Mark was here]

I just dont understand how Conservatives, who are for less government in out lives, support the government sponsored “Do not call” lists. It just seems odd that they are for all for more government when it is a program they happen to like. I think we need less government, including programs we both like and dislike. Can't just say I'm for less government as long as you don't cut programs I like. Seems like most Freepers miss this point. It is not about telemarketers, it is about demanding less government.

I do not know what upcoming Republican I will support, but one that is serious about less government, can call me.

In fact outside of California it would have been “Ronald who” until the middle of the Carter term.

What’s a wanker?

I’m with you Jim!
