Conservatives Launch New Social Network to Escape Facebook ‘Censorship’ — Will You Join?

If the federal government wants to know who you are, they can do it based on your post to this thread. We’re an open book to them. Scary, but true.
Conservatives Launch New Social Network to Escape Facebook ‘Censorship’ — Will You Join?

Looks like the server crashed, which could be because there are so many people joining (there are a LOT) or because some liberal hacker attacked it because liberals don’t like free speech.

Overall, I think TPC has done a great job with that site. The main complaint I have is that the Privacy features don’t seem to work. I’ve selected that only Friends see my page, but people I don’t know are still “Liking” my posts.
Atheists Sue R.I. Florist for Refusing to Deliver Flowers to Teen Atheist Behind Prayer Mural Ban

What is The Blaze’s obsession with atheists and homosexuals? It seems like every day there is a new story about one of these *extreme* minorities.
Atheist Mom Who Penned Viral Essay About Raising Kids ‘Without God’ Speaks Out

That obviously should have been “Hitchens simply couldn’t get around it.” Alas, I’ve given atheists an opening to dodge the issue and focus on my typo.
Atheist Mom Who Penned Viral Essay About Raising Kids ‘Without God’ Speaks Out

If you ever want to see how dense atheists are, tell them there can be no objective morality apart from God. They will talk and talk and talk, and will never see the complete nonsense they are sputtering. Doug Wilson used this argument repeatedly against Christopher Hitchens and Hitchens simply could get around it (not that Hitchens was a very logical fellow of course, He mostly just threw tantrums about God)..

Mandatory tipping is not tipping. It is just a way for the business to pay the server more without having to *officially* pay the server more.
A Path to Citizenship? Senators Reach Bipartisan Agreement on Sweeping Immigration Reform

Marco Rubio is the new John McCain. When the Republican elite’s preferred candidate for 2016 is allying with the likes of Chuck Schumer, Dick Durbin, Bob Menendez, John McCain, and Lindsey Graham you know they haven’t learned anything from the past two presidential elections.

We’re moving closer and closer to the collapse of the Republican party.
Sarah Palin Is Out at Fox News

Fox News backed Romney and he was ****-hurt by Palin’s OBVIOUS reluctance to endorse Romney while there remained any other options.
‘A Step in the Right Direction’: Obama’s Gun Control Proposals Get Support From the Vatican

The Roman Catholic Church has a long history of supporting socialism and “big government” approaches to governing. The RCC is socially conservative but economically liberal. People forget they supported government-run healthcare. They’ve only joined our side against Obamacare when Obama turned it on them. They have no problem with the redistribution of wealth as long as it doesn’t step on specifically RCC beliefs.
House GOP Set to Pass Three-Month Debt Ceiling Extension: Is This a ‘Cave’ or Something Bigger?

Republican representation:
1. “We will NOT give in to Obama on ___.”
2. “We had to give in to Obama this time, but NEXT time we won’t.”
Repeat.

Republican strategy for winning elections:
1. Run a moderate candidate.
2. When the candidate loses to the Democrat, assume it is because the candidate was not enough like the Democrat.
Repeat.

We are between a rock and a hard place. We need to abandon the Republicans and form a third party, but forming a third party will probably ensure the Democrats stay in power. On the other hand, continuing to support the Republicans will also probably ensure the Democrats stay in power, and even if the Republicans DO somehow get elected, they will continue to move further and further toward Democrat policies (see “Bush, George W.”).
