It's not the right that's being questioned but the wisdom. Why is anyone going to participate in a political site if they can't say "we should support this candidate because . . ."?
Now, FR calls itself a conservative activist site. There are a lot of people who consider themselves conservative activists who think Obama must go. I don't think I'm going to go out on a limb when I say that the segment of those who think of themselves as conservative activists who think Obama must go is a whole lot larger than those who think it's OK for Obama to have a second term.
If you drive that segment away you are going to have a participation level much smaller than you previously did. It should go without saying that the donations will drop accordingly, as well as any influence you have. It should go without saying anyway. I guess it ought to be said.
Now you, or somebody, posted a graphic on one of the thon threads saying something like "Exit out Obamaville"
What is your plan to get us out of Obamaville? I don't like Romney. Now, just tell me what your plan is to get us out?
If Romney is the nominee I'm voting for him. Is that cause for a zot?
Hey, you want to see something interesting? Check out Buckhead's recent posting history. . Remember Buckhead, right? The guy who got FR in the Newseum?
Ten comments since August with his last one being "Bull, respectively"
Why would a conservative, activist site back a liberal? That makes no sense. "If you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything".
Now, FR calls itself a conservative activist site.
That's not new.
There are a lot of people who consider themselves conservative activists who think Obama must go.
And?
I don't think I'm going to go out on a limb when I say that the segment of those who think of themselves as conservative activists who think Obama must go is a whole lot larger than those who think it's OK for Obama to have a second term.
I haven't seen anyone on FR trying get Obama a second term. If you do, tell Jim.
If Romney is the nominee I'm voting for him. Is that cause for a zot?
I haven't seen Jim zot anyone for that. What I have seen him say is "Vote your conscience". I have also seen him say that there will be no campaigning for liberal Romney on FR.
Me too and I won't lose a minutes sleep over it. Romney is orders of magnitude better than Obama with a dem congress and at least one order better than Obama without a dem majority.
