Oh my... Freeper drama continues

A lot of people are getting to their boiling point over JimRob going unreasonable about Romney. I think he made a huge PR blunder there. Its not like we all love Romney, but get real boys and girls. Obama simply cannot be allowed a second term. That is far too serious of a threat to get caught up in whether or not Romney is pure. I'd vote for a ham sandwich over Obama right now. Still, I hope JimRob learns from this mistake, and that FR doesn't die because of it.

That's what I'm doing here.  I am afraid to post on FR any more.  It's a bummer.

I am planning to vote for Romney in November.  I view him as a placeholder. 

I expect him to do some good things (like allow the Keystone pipeline, give asylum to Chinese dissidents, appoint at least moderate Supreme Court justices to replace any retired/dying liberal justices, stop overregulation, do what he can to get rid of Obamacare, and make at least token pro-life moves, improve our image worldwide, have a reasonable wife) and some bad things (support liberal/moderate R incumbents, allow for homos in the military to continue, and just fail to be a limited government guy).

I am not under the delusion that he will be great.  But I am not under the delusion that he's Obama II, either.

However, arguing that case, however politely, can get you banned at FR.  At least as far as I can tell.

I don't object to someone else voting third party or just down ticket if that is their conviction.  I don't like it when I'm told I'm a lib if it is my conviction that Romney is the best vote in November.

Just having the SCOTUS appointments should be enough for the GOP to get behind Romney.
Sure, I've been called a xenophobe, but the truth is, I'm not. I honestly just feel that America is the best country and the other countries aren't as good. That used to be called patriotism. -Kenny Powers

Agreed.
By the way, have you officially introduce yourself to the forum ?
