Romney Supporters Banned From Free Republic
Fox News Nation ^ | By Emily Schultheis, Politico

Posted on 11/01/2011 1:05:31 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

Free Republic founder Jim Robinson has a message for supporters of Mitt Romney: go away.

In an email to POLITICO this afternoon, Robinson admitted that the site routinely blocks Romney supporters from posting -- and offered no apologies for the practice:

Free Republic is a pro-life, pro-family, pro-gun, pro-small government, pro-constitution, pro-liberty site. Governor Romney is none of the above. His record is that of an abortionist, gay rights pushing, gun grabbing, global warming advocating, big government, mandate loving, constitution trampling, flip-flopping liberal progressive with no core values. That and the fact that he is the chief architect and advocate for ObamaCare disqualifies him for any consideration whatsoever on Free Republic as a potential nominee for the presidency.

"For my part, I much prefer a reformed and converted sinner who has come to see the light and who gets it, to someone flintily convinced of his own righteousness."

Ah... a voice of reason.

From a fellow vet, unsurprisingly.

I was a hippie liberal in my youth. I've been in the belly of that beast. Reason saved me, not the lash.

" His supporters use dirty rotten tactics. I think they are in cahoots with Politico and behind the current smear campaign against Herman Cain. "

Bingo !

Noticed how Politico have said that, they can't say if it was one of Cain's rivals among the GOP ?

They ( Politico ) have a bad poker face.

You know every well they know it was one of Cain's main rivals among the GOP.
Mitt Romney is known for this type of sleaze and dirt tactics.
You did good Jim Robinson by flushing the toilet of these Mitt Romney supporters who are out of line.

Yaaaaaawnnnn!

Have more constructive things to do than attempt to discuss something reasonably with anyone who seems to have little interest in doing so.

I am amazed at those who do NOT understand FR's purpose.

Instead of trying to change FR, they should simply find another site.

I saw Rove give a two minute speed-read defense of Romney on Fox and Friends this morning while greatly qualifying Cain's ability to recover from the current allegations. Rove makes me puke.

FR is a conservative site. Romney is NOT a conservative. Period.

I simply fail to understand why anyone who calls themselves a conservative would even consider supporting the architect of Obamacare.

"RINO supporters will just have to keep it under their hats or in the closet."

How do I 'fight' somebody you've got locked in the closet?

Perhaps you can leave the closet key where I can reach it. And institute filtering for the currently well-represented squeamish Freepers.

I won’t vote for Romney in the primary in TN nor will I vote for him if he wins the nomination.

He’ll just slow down the continued destruction.

I already have two RINO and worthless senators I never voted for (Lamar! and Corker) that just love Dem-lite. Don’t need a president like that.

Obama vs. Romney is destruction by a matter of degree.

" Matthew 7:13 & 14 Jesus talks of the narrow road and the narrow gate. "

What Jesus was talking about here is that there is only one narrow way, road to GOD, and that is through him, through Jesus Christ only.

" 'Hey, you can always vote with your feet, pal.' ... I think it's silly. I'm NOT a Romney supporter... anymore.. largely because of things I learned HERE."

You are quite correct, it is silly.

I had expected better from FR and JR.

I was also once a liberal (though much longer ago) who was convinced by reason and Light. NOT by the darkness of the closet.
