What gets me is the hard left turn FReepers have taken for Trump.

After all, FReepers cheered the citizens united ruling and cheered even louder when Justice Alito called Obama a liar over it during the state of the union speech a few years ago.

Today those very same people sound like Harry Reid railing on about the Koch brothers.

Talk about moral cowardice.

Yep, and about 90% of them are so drunk with fan girl crushes they have no idea they're way out on the left edge. Suddenly on FR it's great to smooch up to Mitch McConnell....it's great to support ethanol....it's great to support Kelo.....it's great to use Stephanopolous' show as propoganda.....it's great to "reach across the aisle" - and so on.

The new improved FR I guess......

Nothing new. Stockholm Syndrome. They identify with their captors and turn on the conservatives every election.

Is there a difference? Do you know the Koch Brothers have donated $100 million to pro-amnesty organizations, and partnered with George Soros on the New America Foundation to promote amnesty and a pathway to citizenship?

They are 100% emotionally invested in their guy now. Nothing he says or does will sway them now.

Citizens United was great but it created a new problem - super PAC owned candidates. We going to discuss that or we going to crap on Trump?

Yep, it has that same zombie apocalypse feel of 2008, but on our side this time. Think people! We're conservatives, guided by thought moreso than emotion...

Freepers didn't realize they were getting screwed by the Koch brothers and the Chamber of Commerce who quickly moved in to take over campaigns. Freepers didn't know that the GOPe, including many of our best "conservatives," favored America-destroying trade deals and immigration policies.
