Just a bunch of right-wing extremists, clinging to our guns and religion! FReepathon thread XVI

Well, I keep getting notes from readers telling me why donations are down. And I guess it's not because of the economy or the depression or that the GOP is in a terrible slump or any of that stuff. The number one complaint seems to be that we on FR apparently have more faith in God than man or science. We support Liberty as defined by our Founding Fathers and we don't support moderates (RINOs), socialism, universal healthcare, abortion, the gay agenda or any of that modern poofter stuff that we're supposed to be supporting. We just don't believe that government is the solution to our problems.

Let's face it. Free Republic is now populated by nothing but a bunch of right-wing extremists, clinging to our guns and religion!

Guess that makes some people nervous.

Hoo yah!!

As we all know Mr 0bama likes to say that his
inspiration has always been President Lincoln

Well, mr 0bama.....
You would do well to read and heed the words of Mr. Lincoln!
