Read This Freeper Post .... Fascinating...

[scheming daemons]

The following was posted on FreeRepublic.com in a thread concerning whether Bush is "conservative" enough. Good stuff:

"I believe in fact, that many voters were turned off from the elder Bush because of Ruby Ridge. This is one of the events which propelled clinton INTO the White House.

Bush 2 better take heed. We fought with our friends and relatives supporting this man. We prayed hours on end for him to win the Florida mess...I was there in the crowd on Inauguration day, freezing, but thrilled that Bush was President.

Now, I find out that the man sent a congratulatory letter to a gay church in California, saying they were "doing the Lord's work"....He proposed and imposed the largest entitlement program since FDR...he stopped giving praise to Jesus Christ and started praising the "religion of peace": islam, saying we share the same god, then brought muslims into the White House to pray....and now for some insane reason, the man wants to give our nation to the Mexicans!

Also, I hate to say it, but as for me, I feel lied to about WMD's in Iraq. I really, really believed that Iraq had them, and now I must eat crow to lots of people.

I hate the fact that Bush has validated the Dixie Chicks and the "not in our name" group.

I wanted a guy in the White House that I could trust to always tell us the truth. If he didn't actually lie, he twisted the truth, and played word games with us. This is not what we thought we were getting when we stood in the freezing rain cheering him on as he took his oath of office."

We're winning folks....

1. I have never understood why the conservatives trust

the Bushes. Wasn't Clinton's drug running in Mena just part of Bush's much larger Iran-Contra games? These paranoid types who think the eastern establishment is out to create one world government of the antiChrist... how could they possibly think Bush is an ally?

2. It almost sounds like a parody

[joshcryer]

4. thought nothing shocks ya anymore?

;D

[blm]

13. All their posts sound like parody to me.

heh

3. The amazing thing is they really just want the same thing we do...

"I wanted a guy in the White House that I could trust to always tell us the truth. If he didn't actually lie, he twisted the truth, and played word games with us. "

I might get flamed for it but after all the crap is gone through, I think we all just want someone we can trust to do whats right. We just see the way to get there differently.

5. Nah. It's George who is losing.

He's really doing it all by himself. He lied. And now they believe he lied.

After such a fuss about Clinton's fib, to be lied to over life and death matters and have to pretend it's no big deal?

Priceless.

6. quick call Ann Coulter

"then brought muslims into the White House to pray"

my God, clearly Bush isn't just a ignorant, boorish, easilly manipulated, spoilt, election theiving, corporate whore he's a traitor!!!!!!! letting Muslims into the White House Ye Gads!

funniest thing I've read all day

9. What flag is that? Just curious...

B-)

[Eureka]

16. Eureka Flag

(Not sure this is why Djinn is using it, but....)

The Eureka Flag was originally used in the Eureka Stockade uprising against the govt in Ballarat, Victoria (Aus) during the goldrush. It has since been used by Australians as a symbol of 'anti-government-ness', typically of the left variety.

22. Yep that's it

Although for me it's also a childhood memory - my family moved here in the early 80's when I was a wee kid - my Dad, being an incurable leftie, got himself a Eureka singlet (dark blue natch!) early and wore it all the time - I asked what it was and so yet another leftie was born.

It's based on the Southern Cross which is a constellation seen in the southern hemisphere in case anyone else's wondering

7. It Is Amazing How Picayune These Folks Issues Are!

One presumes they are incapable of seeing the big picture:

Economy,
Education,
Health Care,
Environment,
Energy Security.

These folks are out to lunch intellectually!

8. This person was ideologically disillusioned.

Maybe, he / she can regain faith in the government with a new, legitimate president in office. I can only hope so. And, perhaps there are many more!

:kick:

[bhunt70]

12. I agree.

Perhaps a good president who has integrity could kinda repair the split we've gone through.

[frogfromthenorth2]

10. You have a link to that thread?

Curious to see the responses....

[DjTj]

11. I have heard many Republicans who are upset at Bush...

...because they are strong believers in fiscal conservatism.

It all bodes well for us.

[Hippo_Tron]

14. I wish all Republicans were like this...

These are the kinds of Republicans that I can actually stomach. I would love to have an ideological debate with people like this because although I would disagree with them on many issues, I would know that they truly want whats best for the country. If Bush were a truly conservative president then things would be so much different. Obviously we would want a democrat in the white house wouldn't be the end of the world.

15. link please?

18. the Link

17. I'll bet a DEM disruptor wrote that...

but it's still good stuff- and probably at least a little effective...

[scheming daemons]

19. Don't think so...

The guy's Freeper profile says he's been there a while and he has had lots of posts.

Usually, if he was a "Dem Disruptor", as you say, he would have been outed and banned a lot earlier.

I think this is a legit dude who is disenchanted with his hero.

... and I don't think he's alone.

I can only speak from personal experience, but there are lots of right-wing types at work who badgered me about Clinton to no end... and here (in Pittsburgh), they're disgusted with Bush for the Steel tariff flip-flop and the fact the Bush is actively supporting Arlen Specter.

Arlen Specter is to the Repukes what Zell Miller is to the Dems. He votes against his party more often than not and conservatives here in PA can't stand him. And the Bush White House is actively supporting him over the much more conservative Toomey.... and the radcons are livid.

Chimp-boy and Rove-sputin have pissed off their base... maybe they're making the calculation that the base will vote for them no matter what, but its a risky proposition. It worked for Clinton in 1996......

[Kat45]

20. Good. Perhaps this is one more freeper who won't vote for *

The more who get disgusted and stay home, the fewer votes * will get. Sounds good to me.

[Printer70]

21. NY Times poll shows Bush has greatest support of base...

...of any recent president. I doubt this nutjob Freeper is representative at all. If we're going to win, it has to be amongst independents.

[maggrwaggr]

25. yeah, but the base ain't that big

Isn't his base only around 30%??

[Mike Niendorff]

23. Translation -- from FreeperSpeak to English :

"GHWB lost because he pissed off the white supremacists in Northern Idaho, so his kid had better take a lesson from that! We went to bat for him thinking we were getting a good 'Christian' man -- you know, the kind of guy who goes after the gays, and the Mexicans, and the Muslims! But does he heed the lessons of Ruby Ridge? No! He's going soft on them! Sending them campaign letters! Doing photo-ops with them! Offering them "guest worker" status! Next thing you know, they'll start wanting citizenship. It's almost as though he thinks they're white or something ...

"Worse than that, he's starting to make people like us look bad. Like we're gullible, or ill-informed or something, just because we believed him when he lied about Iraq, and because we didn't believe the lefties when they viciously told the truth about him lying about Iraq. And to think, I stood out in the freezing rain and guarded porta-potties for this man!

"Thanks to George W. Bush, I can no longer wear my white hood with pride. Some 'Christian' he turned out to be!"

24. Wait until this guy reads about Rudy being considered for VP

A gay rights and abortion supporter who cheats on his wife.

I bet the far right will love it. :)
