Free Republic

But if I recall correctly, McCain was nominated by liberal Republican voters and democrats in open primary states. He was not nominated by conservatives. Blame the open primary system that allows democrats to vote in republican primaries. Also, you can blame wishy-washy moderate-to-liberal Republican voters in the northeast, i.e. New Hampshire.

Yup. Both Barack Hussein Obama and Jay Nixon will appoint leftist extremist to the bench. Lord help us all.

Woops. I said paudio is right. My mistake. I meant to say that paudio’s theory is NOT right.

This once great country needs REAL conservatives, not RINO’s.

Hahaha....true....I know. Just wishful thinking on my part.

That’s what I feared. He’ll be a figurehead for the Pelosi/Reid congress. Jeez....People, we’re in trouble.

As MC Hammer once said, we’ve got to PRAY. And I mean PRAY....BIG TIME.

In a way, I hope you are right. I hope he screws things up so badly that in 2 years we take back congress.

But on the other hand, I’m REALLY worried about the SCOTUS and the lower courts. God help us.

Card-check, gun rights....oh Lord. You’re probably right though.

I know (and I’ve always known) in my heart that B. Hussein Obama in going to steer us to the far left, but I created this article in hope that maybe, just maybe in some way we can salvage this incredible country God bestowed us.

Yeah that’s what I thought. I apologize for the vanity post and the inane speculation. I just love my country and I’m grasping at straws I guess.

I know we’re f*****, I’m just dreaming for the sake of the country I love. And I’m dreaming for the lives of babies, and the right of a man (or woman) to protect his (or her) home with a firearm, and for the right of free speech, and for the security of the homeland.

But...alas....you’re right...we’re probably screwed. Goodbye America. I will always love you.

Sorry for the dramatics, and again...I apologize for the vanity.

paudio is correct. This “big-tent” theory is what helps us lose elections. We need SOLID, STRONG conservatism. We need REAL Reagan conservatism. People respect authenticity and strength and principle, not political posturing.

Yup. At least I feel like we are all off the hook now. I’m ready to get my new bumpersticker that states “Don’t blame me, I didn’t vote for ‘that one’”.

Christian County MO here (just south of Greene County). Heavily conservative area, thank God! (the REAL God, not Hussein Obama)

Glad to hear “The Messiah” isn’t ahead here.

Also glad to see the English language amendment I voted for IS ahead here.

I still see St. Louis county, Clay and Jackson counties coming through in the end for “The Messiah” though. :(

I heard that too. Oh man, I can't think about that right now. That's breaking my heart in two. God bless Terri Schindler.
She was alive and she fought to live. She wasn't ready to go yet. She wanted to spend more time with her family. But our government took her life. I'm gonna puke or cry or something.

I, too, now firmly oppose the death penalty. It cannot be trusted in the hands of a government like this

I also agree with all of you saying this.

We have now seen the corruption of our judicial system.

There is no such thing as due process in the United Socialist States of Amerika.

And without due process we are not justified taking human life, even after a criminal conviction....technicalities and proceduralism rule the courts, not the search for truth, and we cannot kill anyone based upon that.

Laura Ingraham playing Amazing Grace now.

I know. Thank God for Laura. She realizes what's going on here. She realizes the importance of this case.

It amazes me just how many people do NOT realize what has happened and what this means to us as a nation.

God bless you, Terri Schindler. We love you and we miss you.

But now you are whole and you are with your Heavenly Father.
No more pain, no more discomfort. No more evil.

You're in the arms of The Lord now and we'll see you when we get there.

God save The U.S.A.

Vengeance is The Lord's and I pray that he pour out his wrath upon those responsible for the taking of Terri's life.

Oh my God this is NOT America!!!!!!!!!

Signed on 4 days ago. Long time conservative Republican..........never gonna vote Republican again............yeah right.

in response to my original post, which was (btw, try to find where I said "never gonna vote Republican again!"):

(complete repost)
I have NEVER been mad at President Bush...NEVER.
But I am now. He seems to have lost his pair. Either he lost his pair, or he's just been toooo busy this past week meeting with Vicente Fox about how to bring more illegals across the border.

You know Mike Gallagher just pointed out on his radio show that Bush didn't even find the time in his busy schedule to say ANYTHING AT ALL about this country's 2nd worst school shooting in history in Red Lake, MN!!!! WTF is THAT about? He's the president for god's sake! He is this country's spiritual leader! President Reagan would've been on top of it guaranteed. Oh man I miss him right now.

Look, I'm a conservative and a life-long Republican. I know some folks around here hate to hear any criticism of Pres. Bush, and I'll probably be flamed for this post. But damnit MY President is letting me down. He's selling us off to Mexico, he can't find the time to offer comfort after the 2nd most bloody school massacre in US HISTORY, and he won't step in to save the life of a disabled lady being killed by her estranged husband without due process! What happened to good ol' first term W? That's who I voted for.

As of right now, I don't know that I'll align myself with the Republican party again. I am a die-hard conservative and I always will be. My votes will go to the most conservative on the ballot, but I think my work with GOP is done. I said it on another post but it bears repeating....The cowardice from the oval office is the last straw....Just call me Pat Buchanan.

On that note, I really want a little clarification about this site. Is Free Republic a strictly "Republican" site? I thought this was a safe place for conservatives. Am I wrong? Is there no room for conservatives that don't see a lot of true conservatism from Pres. Bush? Just curious.

Thanks,
another true conservative ex-GOPer,

Ok. Now, did I say I'd never vote Republican again? Nope. I never said that. I said I won't align myself with the GOP. There's a difference. I'll vote for whoever the most conservative candidate may be.

This is one of the most important issues in American history. You may disagree, and that's fine. Be loyal to the party to the end, just as the dems are loyal to their party regardless of the corruption and anti-americanism in their party.

As I said, I've been a Republican nearly all my life (since 1982 at least) and I've passionately supported my party.

I have NEVER been pissed at my party...EVER. Got that? NEVER. NEVER. NE-VER.

This issue of government sanctioned murder of the disabled is an extremely crucial cultural issue and my party's leaders have been cowards.

Call me a DUer if you want. Frankly that's a cop-out because you don't want to deal with the real issues.

Oh, and one more thing, I signed on to Free Republic 4 days ago that's true. But I was here a couple years ago regularly before my computer crashed. Now I'm back because I just purchased a new Dell last week.

Call me a DUer or imply that just because I'm not happy with our President then I must be some whacko liberal if you must, but I demand courage from our political leaders, and Bush HAD courage in his 1st term, but it's now absent, or like I said he's tooooo busy for courage because his schedule is filled with trying to find out new ways to help Mexicans enter our country illegally.

TRUE CONSERVATIVE, ANTI-LIBERAL, PRO-GUN, PRO-LIFE,

I agree. Leadership is desperately lacking. Sadly, even from The Republican Party now.
