I’m going to pound anyone ho thought purity was more important than country.
******It says right in the founder’s statement that we are not beholden to ANY political party; FR is not a GOP website. So you are not being conservative when you pound conservatives for not voting for what JimRob called a lying, baby-killing, gun-grabbing statist. If you wanna pound conservatives for not voting GOP, go to GOP.com instead of trolling here.

As for FR being a conservative site. Too many here think the only conservatives are those who.... but they don’t get to define what conservative is for the rest of us.

***And in that very same statement, he defines conservatism:
As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc.

“In the Senate, two good and decent men – Todd Akin and Richard Mourdock – were defeated not because they were pro-life, but because they were inept campaigners. “

WRONG...theyt were inept campaigners because they compelled by the issue of pro-life.
When will we ever learn? More of the same? Think about it!

You can’t be a party of Individual freedom and dictate to women what they can do with their bodies. Our issue is Individual Freedom...with it we can’t go wrong.

To paraphrase...those who do not learn the lessons of history are condemned to repeat it.

The most innocent, the unborn child, disagrees with you and is pleading for patriots to stand up for the right to life!

You are a supporter of murdering & slaughtering unborn children!

You are a monster!!!!!

***I’m fine with that. The problem is that a woman’s body doesn’t have 4 eyes, 4 ears, 2 noses, and 2 mouths.

"Never again” are we going to nominate a big government establishment Republican for President."

Until 2016.

Please explain how MR and the kenyan "are not alike".

There is no difference between the two. State policy, not talking points. Romney did not tell us ANYTHING that he would do differently from the kenyan. He just thought the Ward and June act would be enough.

See...that’s the problem right there...and you prove my point...both you and the other guy represent a segment of the party that wants to impose your morality on others...read your history... friend

...that is why we so often lose the good and noble fight. Have you noticed that you can’t impose your views because you are not in power...a Catch-22...wouldn’t you say? But you would be included under the Big Tent anyway...just not with too big a role.

BTW...you are both doing the work of the Left admirably when you insist upon keeping us out of power.

***I think the same right to life & protection that we extend as a society to vulture eggs should be extended to babies, especially those that are viable. If you have a problem with that, why do you log onto FR, which is a pro-life site? What do you hope to accomplish, trying to separate conservatives from their conservative principles?

Oh, yikes. It could happen. But here on FR, if JimRob endorses a pro-choice, gun-grabbing statist turd in 2016, I’ll be leaving FR.

“why do you log onto FR, which is a pro-life site? What do you hope to accomplish, trying to separate conservatives from their conservative principles?”

A pro-life site...excuse me...I thought this was an American forum..one that extolled our traditions and freedoms...celebrated our rights as a unique and independent people. Show me where the Founders referred to Abortion clinics and Pro-life demonstrations.

Conservative principles are not as narrow as you define...nor as proprietary as you explain them...I don’t see where this forum is dominated by anyone except patriotic Americans...who respect people’s rights.

You need to take some time and see the bigger picture!

Go cry to the mods and get me zotted. If I have been here continualyy since Aug 2000 you’d think Robinson would have banned me before now.With conservatives like you the conservative movement will go the way of the Federalist party.

***I would do that but I’m more interested in guiding this horse to water, hoping you’ll drink from the water of simple decency and honorability. I’m hoping you’ll stop this behavior you’ve engaged in.

***Um, no, the GOP will go the same way as the Whigs when they excised the socons from their party. How many Whigs do you know? Do you suppose the recriminations such as yours preceded the expulsion of socons from their party? Are you that confident in your middling coalition which didn’t even deliver you a victory this round?

A lot of people here really believe ignorant crap. Rubio is eligible. Period.

Better get your heads out of your tailpipes folks, you have become part of the problem.

You're wrong -- it was his friends and those promised by the GOP-e, the 'moderates' who stayed home.

Conservative Christians voted for Romney in great numbers.

Cheers!

Go back to DU troll.

This would destroy the union as the phantom ballots in Cleveland and Miami and Philly would rule the country.

And another liberal troll outs himself.

Abortion isn't about a women's own body: half the genetic material of the individual killed during an abortion, comes from someone other than the woman.

1) Gun-grabbing UN treaty.

2) Friendship with Israel -- Romney and Netanyahu are personal friends, as Benjamin has an engineering degree from MIT and dealt with Romney when Romney was a consultant.

3) Romney did not want to reduce the US first to 300 nuclear warheads, then none.

4) Romney wanted to confront China economically, not surrender to them militarily.

Nice try, troll-boy.

This guy's last few posts are interesting, as he says restricting abortion is trying to limit a woman's control over her own body...

Also read post #51 this thread...
