“Truth is the new hate speech.”—“Creeping Sharia”
“We [the people] own this country.”—Clint Eastwood
I feel like I ought to start out each of my articles anymore with a disclaimer, or caveat saying something along the lines of “WARNING: The contents of this article are to be considered null and void in the event of a “Reichstag Fire,” false flag event, and/or an invasion by Russian Spetsnaz in collusion with Northcom,“or words to that effect.
My intent is not to make light of such concerns, as God knows we have reason enough to be more than a bit edgy these days—what with the Patriot Act, NDAA, the torrent of Obama EOs (Executive Orders), various government agencies stockpiling millions of rounds of ammo, and other such things.
Personally, I am what you might call a cynical optimist—I hope for the best, but plan for the worst. I keep myself open to the idea that the US can peacefully pull itself out of the colossal mess that it is currently mired in—but I have enough guns, ammo, freeze dried food and whatnot to open a small survivalist store.
Be that as it may—the main topic that I wish to address in this article is my decision to back the Romney/Ryan ticket, and the fallout from that. Contrary to what some of you may think, I have not rushed off and enlisted in the “Dark Side.” I am as opposed to the Big Bank/ Big Corporation/Big Government/Big War cabal as ever...

I don’t know how many different ways there are to say this.
“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.” (1 Cornthians 13: 2-3)
“Meekness, temperence; against such there is no law.” (Galatians 5:23)
On the cross where he died for our sins, Jesus Christ showed there can be no justice without love.
“Nice” is a term from leftist progressivism.
Bwahahahahahahahahaha. You can't even tell the difference between being persecuted for your faith and simply being laughed at for your stupidity and you expect someone to follow your advice? You keep pretending to have actually been persecuted for your faith here, as if it's true. You can't actually point to a post that even hints at that, yet you keep doubling down as if you have something to say here.
Delusional. You need professional help.
You are become as a daily Insult devotional.
Fantastic!
Keep your insults and scoffing up. They give me strength.
Laughing at the biblical quotes I offered you in terms of dealing with a fool, makes every comment I made here, justififed.
That says a lot more about you, than your silly attempts at insulting me on a daily basis do.
I truly hope you are enjoying this as much as I am.
After all, you keep demonstrating that you are the one holding the shovel.
So I am curious - why is your admonition directed at me, and not those like Lakeshark doing the overt insulting, ridicule and scoffing?
Is it because he and his pals are all voting for Romney with you?
Of course these things apply to each of us.
I never laughed at biblical quotes, you can't demonstrate that I laughed at biblical quotes, but I did, however, laugh at you. A lot. It's well deserved.
Like Peter says (another hint for your first dismal failure concerning biblical knowledge), there is a difference between being persecuted for your Christian faith, and simple wrong doing.
That you still don't understand the difference, and that's been most of our conversation, is stunning.
That you continue to insist you are somehow being persecuted for your Christian faith (as a reminder, you haven't shown anyone a place where that has been true) shows how remarkably stiff necked and moronic (shall we say Pharisaical?), you are.
Thank you for this morning’s Insult Devotion.
Keep digging pal. You’re doing a great job illustrating everything I contend.
Ping for reference
What the H E double toothpics are you talking about?
You are on drugs.
Just look at what Ears has done/is doing to the energy industries in this country.
No rational person can draw the conclusions you have. 'Pod.
Back at you.
You've already been gently admonished by another freeper for being so obtuse and wrong (not just me sir INVAR), you continue to try out your silly claim that you are being persecuted for your faith (frankly, a very sick claim that you can't back up), and you say I'm the one digging?
Delusional. You should look it up some time.........
You just cannot help yourself can you?
You’re like the playground bully who targets the one soul who won’t knuckle under your insults and run away and leave you the sandbox.
You make me laugh. I love your continuous juvenile insults, they tell me I am taking up space inside your head.
I just love knowing I have so left a mark on your conscience, that even after a week on this thread, you have to keep on coming back and hitting, as if you can absolve yourself somehow for the insulting fool and wimpish bully you illustrated yourself to be.
Keep it up. I’m not the only one laughing at you and giving God the praise for your insults.
So.....here's the deal: You've been whining about how you've been "persecuted for your Christian faith", I've been saying you're delusional and a moron for claiming this was so.
So....put up or shut up. Show us all the specific post or posts where you've been "persecuted for your faith".
I'll be waiting.........for lots of years, cause you ARE delusional.
Now put up or shut up, there's no conscience problem here cause you're a liar. Flat out, you're a liar. Show us all (including your phantom posse) or just go slink away.
Thank you for today’s insult sir.
This entire thread is a testament. It’s out there for all to read and see.
The fruits are evident to those who understand, and not evident to those who are willfully blind, deliberately so.
Not one.
You sir, are delusional.
Anyone reading the thread can see. You've been challenged to find just one, and you can't.
Game over. Kindly seek professional help from a real pastor.
This thread is a testament to exactly what you insist has not occurred.
You keep attempting to state that those of us principled Christians who will not vote for Romney because of our faith - have not been attacked by you and your foaming-at-the-mouth pals. Then you try to parse your vitriol into insisting it’s not our faith in Christ you are attacking, just our refusal to vote for Romney - or in my case - because I dared point out what you and your pals were actually engaged in.
We’ve been attacked precisely because we will not compromise our faith and principles by voting for Romney. And you, jumped in - out-of-your- mind-belligerent that anyone would dare call you and your ilk out on your attacks.
I am so in your head, and you are so bothered by the fact that I won’t knuckle under to your bullying-tactics - you somehow think deriding and insulting me on a daily basis is somehow going to get me to slink away. That, and the fact you so enjoy the condescension and insulting.
You would tear off a piece of flesh with your teeth if you could given how unhinged you and your ilk are that those of us of faith will not surrender and compromise our beliefs to vote for someone we oppose, because you people are frightened to death of Obama.
You will keep calling me delusional, insulting both me and my principles and by extension, my faith on a daily basis to assuage your juvenile outrage. In fact you admitted in this thread that you are going to continue to ridicule and insult me in derision.
Of course you will.
It’s all you have. It’s all you got. It’s all you are.
And it’s what the prince of the power of the air does. You are just following his lead.
So have at.
We count it all joy we’re worthy of the derision and insults you and your ilk spew.
Because ultimately, it’s not us you are insulting.
I'll repost what another FReeper said who's also fed up with these creeps who project their own vile behaviors and lies onto those who simply state opinions which are different and in opposition to their own:
I've been railing against what I call the Wolf Pack that's been operating on FR for up to about 20 months ago.....beginning then with the hate posts against the Morman Church, then escalating with hate and many times profanity against the Republican Party, candidate Romney, Republicans for Romney, conservatives for Romney, religious folks for Romney, etc. etc. etc.These vicious posters are not only doing their best to turn FR into a hate/fringe site, but they consistently and slickly ACCUSE THEIR TARGETS of being the ones doing the hate and calling names....the targets who are routinely accused of being liberals, trolls, RINOS or members of DU....in other words, the Pack utilizes all the little tricks against their targets that they craftily accuse their targets of doing. It's fascinating how adept they are at doing this.
Over the 14 years I've been on this board, I've avidly and proudly referred many, many folks to the pages of FR, something I don't do any more. I'm embarrassed to do so. There are too many sick posters who are hoping for or helping Obama to win the upcoming election. I'm just hanging in here by a thread hoping that after the upcoming election the Wolf Pack will slink back into the woods and obscurity...... and that FR will return to some semblance of normalcy, class and high standards of debate again....or if it will continue to decline due to the actions of attackers who are using the hospitality of this forum to feed off the consumate hatreds of each other.
I know there are many more like me who decry the cancer of the haters on this site.....but who are too damn afraid to speak up....or they've actually become blase and numbed to the situation and just don't care. I happen to care about Free Republic.
This “purist” groupie stands in better company than you and yours.
As to all the accusations of name-calling and insults, this thread in itself stands as a testament to projection on your part and that of your pals.
Horribly so.
In fact, your pal Lakeshark is engaged in a daily insult devotional, just for me, as evidenced right here on this thread. Derision he said he will continue to dish out as long as I’m posting here.
Fine.
Perhaps if you and yours would direct all the vitriol to the guy you supposedly really hate - instead of the vitriol seen on this thread directed towards me and other “purists” as you call us, you might not be quaking in fear over Obama.
You call us ‘purists’ because we won’t compromise our faith and principles by voting for Romney (Puritans from England that made liberty possible in this country suffered the same exact insults and derision you folks are kindly dishing out for nearly similar reasons) - perhaps you might not be so afraid of Obama.
But alas, as I told your other pal here, I believe you and yours hate us more than you do Obama and the MarxoFascists.
Incorrect. The 'purist groupies/wolf pack' has made themselves known as jackals who use foul language and spew the worst name-calling I've ever witnessed in FR. You're lying by refuting this and this thread is only partial evidence. You clutter threads ad nauseum with the same foul excrement.
"Daily insult devotional" occurs, in your mind, when someone simply disagrees with your thoughts and/or obnoxious posts.
You call us ‘purists’ because we won’t compromise our faith and principles by voting for Romney (Puritans from England that made liberty possible in this country suffered the same exact insults and derision you folks are kindly dishing out for nearly similar reasons) - perhaps you might not be so afraid of Obama.
When I call you 'purists', it's always in quotes; any person who understands even a modicum of the English language understands what it means when a word is selectively quoted. Apparently in all your supposed intelligence, that also went way over your head, just like having manners. It has always been FR custom to ping the person you're talking about in a post. That's another obnoxious behavior you and you 'purists' have eliminated from your 'courtesies.' In the spirit of example-setting, therefore, I am pinging both Lakeshark and JR.
But alas, as I told your other pal here, I believe you and yours hate us more than you do Obama and the MarxoFascists.
Once again, that's a reversal, as you and the groupies drip with hatred against anyone in FR who doesn't agree with you, calling them such things as, "liberals, trolls, RINOS or members of DU, MarxoFascists", etc. So, as far as hatred, the only people showing hatred toward people is you and your groupie friends. It's on constant display. What I actually hate is your behavior and Pharisaic posts because you are turning FR into a hate site, are causing many intelligent and decent conservatives to either leave FR or stop donating. But, to me, of greatest importance is your "Christian witness" is possibly causing people to reject or question the need for Christ in their lives because your 'testimony' is hateful, not loving. You and your groupies' vile words and behaviors are worse than almost any unbeliever/non-Christian I've ever met. So you see, it's not just me who dislikes your hatefulness, many others in FR do, as well.
As to Romney, I think JR makes the point quite adequately:
The only way we can take back the senate is for Romney, Rove, the GOPe, all RINOs, all Republicans and all grassroots tea party conservatives to get behind ALL of our candidates and support them to the hilt. Time to stop the bitching and start the pitching.
