Will FR embrace socialism to make way for Rudy Giuliani as a Republican presidential candidate?
vanity | April 21, 2007 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 04/21/2007 6:42:25 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

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?

and a tagline that ought to be nuked.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

In this case, it happened to be Caesar himself.

Anyone else notice a pattern here? They run off to MadIvan's temper tantrum induced site, post for a month or so, then they finally pull their opus stunts and intentionally get themselves banned here. Bizarre behavior.

I have no idea what the intentions are of the people who run off to a different forum. They are free to do what ever they want. Yet you seem to want to bad mouth them.

If I recall Spiff weren't you one of the ones who ran off to LP. Don't the posters at LP in the Biker Bar trash this site and JR non stop. That's real good company you were keeping over there. Meanwhile, many good Freepers stayed here for years with thousands of posts and thousands of hours of our time defending this site and its owner.

BTW, did you Spiff ever trash FR at LP? Did you ever defend FR at LP?

Nobody with even a room temperature IQ could interpret my graphic post (in response to your most-excellent commentary on RudyToody) as a 'threat' to any candidate.

I don't really care for your graphic ... but what you say here is absolutely true. And MThatcher knew very well you were not threatening anybody ... so if s/he does indeed "call the FBI" it will show her character in an awful light.

And if the FBI doesn't have anything better to do than investigate that kind of stuff ... there's this little thing called the war on Islamic terrorism they should read up on.

... apparently there were a few who signed on hoping to change them.
***You managed to boil down the whole thing into one sentence and no one else noticed? I’m amazed. Your comment covers so much ground and is so simple, it’s almost an analogue. Bravo.

Del, did you find your camera cord? The one you accused me of taking? lol

Now tell me, when would I find time to look?

Anyway my house is a mess because the 4 year old has been hard at play while I have been freeping.

Sometime I'll have to clean up that mess before I look for any of my lost stuff.

Reagan had a burning desire to be President. That’s why he ran several times. He felt it was part of his destiny. Thank God for his ambition.

We're in agreement on that. He was undoubtedly the exception that proves the rule.

No, I'm not sure about it. That's why I wrote "seeming lack of ambition."

But the knock on Thompson from his days in the Senate was that he was on the lazy side. We'll see. I assume that if he's in, he's really in. In that case, I'll give him a serious look.

You called someone else naive first.

Good luck with accepting his “word”. His wives didn’t have much luck with that.

I am perfectly capable of helping to demolish Giuliani and support my candidate at the same time.

I am building a huge Fred Thompson database, along with my Fredhead friends. We are going to come out like gangbusters as soon as he declares, our checkbooks are ready, we’re signed up to volunteer, and Giuliani will be mowed right down.

And unlike you miserable Giuliani types, we are having fun while we’re doing it.

Ohhhh... no... She wasn’t bluffing? Or joking? Oh, my sides (to borrow a famous AFer phrase). In that case I’ll be sure to preserve the evidence for the FBI. And bring the big bad POWERFUL media in too. I’m skeered to death of the media (just hope they spell our name right).

Oh I hope she's not bluffing either Jim, because if the dearly departed M.Thatcher is stupid enough to try something like that, my attorney would love to sue the living sh*t out of her for everything she has, and everything she ever will have.

She can just bring it right on.

Seems you have an unhealthy obsession with other people’s reading interests, and a tagline that ought to be nuked.

Why should my tagline be nuked. It's approved by the owner of the site. Do you have a problem with him?

"Up yours, asswipe!" is a frequent summary of your feelings towards people?

Okay.

I’m well aware of that. Surely you understood that Roman emperors could do things Roman citizens could not.

No, just my feelings toward certain posters.

I find most people entirely reasonable and pleasant to deal with.
