To: Jim Robinson; All
Jim provides a "secure" site where conservatism remains, all as the GoP goes from dark purple toward light blue.

The RINOs forget that the GoP is only 29% (and dropping) of all registered voters.

If we wanted somebody to the left of LBJ for POTUS, the Dems have been around long enough to host that kind of support.

Some of you have opposed the Democrat, liberal, and homosexual attempts to change the Boy Scouts' stance on homosexual leaders.

So...Since Romney has long opposed the Boy Scout stance on homosexual leaders, are you going to militate against the Boy Scouts like some of you (especially EX-freepers) have done toward FR leadership?

Obama, Romney opposed to Boy Scouts ban on gays

So, because JimRob and FR stay true to the Boy Scout stance -- and Romney and Obama don't -- you ex-FREEPERs (& a few FR mole-catalysts among us still) all don the (R) uniform and start attacking those of us who don't "cave in" on that???

There's usually several typical reactions to a link like the above:
1. There's the deniers...they will either blame USA Today for printing the article; or me for linking it...certainly the fault could NEVER be romney for saying what he said.
2. Then there's the responsibility-shifters...they don't want to hold Romney accountable for ANY of his stances...Why? Because Obama's stances are either the same -- or on some issues, worse...
3. Then there are those who engage in personal attacks...usually they are either RINOs or they are heretical conservatives who have turned into pragmatic post-modern relativists...They don't want to concede that they've "converted" to the other side on social issues...or concede they've become what author Douthat referenced as a "Nation of Heretics"...hence, they lash out...

mole-catalysts

Very good word and I know exactly what you mean. They were very active during the primaries claiming to support conservatives and accusing all others of working for Romney. Then when Romney was the last "man" standing, they quickly declared that we all need to support the nominee and then they quit posting for another 4 years.
