The ten best reasons NOT to support FR
Click here to pledge your support! ^ | May 7, 2011 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 05/07/2011 1:53:43 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

1) I support a woman's "right to choose," therefore I cannot support FR.

2) I support "gay rights," therefore I cannot support FR.

3) I support "illegal immigration rights," therefore I cannot support FR.

4) I think guns are dangerous and so support "reasonable" gun control, therefore I cannot support FR.

5) I support government provided health care, therefore I cannot support FR.

6) I think we should all pay our "fair share" and so support higher taxes for the wealthy, therefore I cannot support FR.

7) I think many times government can provide the best solution, therefore I cannot support FR.

8) I think the constitution is fine, but when more government control is needed it just gets in the way, therefore I cannot support FR.

9) I think all this talk about God-given rights is fundamentalist extremism, therefore I cannot support FR.

10) I support MY free speech rights and FR won't allow me to post my support for any of the above, therefore I cannot support FR.

Thank YOU for giving me someone to tell (other than my mother ;-) when Der Prinz walked in the door at noon on a Thursday saying his job had vanished after 7-1/2 years. We got everything from “Do you need food?” to “Call this IT headhunter!” along with jokes and cat pictures.

FReepers also taught me to grow cilantro, last summer, and now I have about 40 square feet of cilantro forest ... and spreading!

*snicker*

I saw that headline and without checking the author or anything else was ready to come in ‘guns blazing’. Dang 2nd time this week I’ve been ready to do battle over a thread with a double meaning.

Anyway, touche’ Jim, those people should not even be here. Amazingly, they are and are stealthy and may ‘give’ to FR.

Personally, I would add another: If you are going to denigrate Sarah Palin based on lies and innuendos, ummmm you probably shouldn’t be here. NOT to say FR is ‘endorsing Sarah Palin’, (although I did see somewhere that this is “Palin Country” AND I also saw THE kiss (finally), in no way would that indicate a full ‘endorsement’.)

Anyway, thanks again for the clarity.

PS I think a “Why I joined and believe in Free Republic” would make an extremely interesting thread. :)

The list reads like the 10 best reasons to turn FR in to Napolitano Security.

(Yes, I donated.)

11. I tried to support FR, got all the way to the signout, and FR asked me for my telephone number.

???Why do you need my telephone number???

I backed out and declined to support FR for this round of quarterly giving.

The credit card processing company required us to ask for a phone number. Thank you very much.

I believe that it’s your credit card company that requires your phone number, but I may be wrong. However, I’ve given my phone number numerous times and unfortunately, Jim has never called me. Go figure. :)

You are welcome, patriot.
It ain’t much, but I signed up for monthly, and I guess every little bit helps.

Obama pays my rent and my gas. He's healing the oceans and raising the level of civil discourse. He killed Usama bin Laden with a roundhouse kick.

Why should I support FR when Obama gives me all that I need?

Is This You Too?

A "Love Note" Sent To Jim Robinson

“I do so enjoy these money raising pleas. Too bad you kicked off so many patriots back in the day that criticizing the big spending Bush was a cardinal sin on the so called conservative free republic.

Nope, I will happily continue to freeload information from this site. If the lights go dark, well, so be it...”

Yep. There are some who believe they are owed a free ride because they disagree with FR policy. Rather than be a freeloading complainer, donate or leave.
