No more Mr. nice Freeper

In the midst of the maelstrom of crazy that is the reaction to Palin's latest madness, I have found a weird new vein of delusion. The idea that something has changed, and that now it's WAR against Obama. As though it was peace before this.

4rcane seems to be confused about his war metaphor and reality:

... and now that we’ve lost the battle at the hill, the enemy moves to our homes and rape and pillage. But we like to say, at least we dont resort to their tactics

Like I said before, this is not a sport. This is war. People’s lives are at stake here. Policy decision effect millions of ppl because we lost at the hill

I see my hands agrees:

The Right doesn’t need to be just like [liberals], the Right needs to be worse. It’s so repulsive to hear the ‘don’t sink to their level, BS.

You’d have us lining up in ranks and columns. Yours is the personal application of appeasement. You equate the evil hatred of righteousness with the righteous hatred of evil.

And when some people hilariously argue that Freepers should continue to pretend to be righteous, the side that wants to pretend to be warriors strikes back!

NTHockey may secretly be Giuliani.

That is a 9/10 mentality. There are people who wish us great harm; but we are not going to recognize that? Look at what that got us! Only by taking the fight TO them, on our terms, can we defeat this enemy. Make no bones about it - LIBs are an enemy that must be destroyed(politically) or accept defeat and slavery.

sergeantdave aint got time for hypocrisy:

Hitler said it best: “Think in blood.” Those three words define the typical leftist and is an admonishment by the furhrer to his followers to reject rationality and logic. The entire leftist philosophy is filled with calls to reject reason and is peppered with propaganda appealing to emotion. Think in blood means to base your actions on boiling, unreasoning emotion.

I’d recommend a careful reading of Robert Conquest’s “Black Book of Communism.” The people we’re dealing with are neither rational nor reasoning.

Our situation is not equivalent to Gandhi resisting the British with rational appeals to non-violence. The fascist obuma and his followers are not reasonable or moral or rational and they do not embrace freedom.

THIS is what monsters the libs are! We must become Internet monsters to fight them!

gunner03 agrees.

Conservatives, as they are right now, will be the recipients of the new Holocaust, blindly walking to their doom without a fight. We were right, but we are dead. “But we have the guns” is no big deal if we’re too righteous or lack the will to use them. Look inside yourself and you’ll see the left is right. We are sheep still.

RJS1950 will sum this all up:

And your principles, whatever they are are null and void if the democrat party takes full control. Again, you don’t have to lie or cheat to fight back but you do have to fight back. Openly labeling them as the liars and cheats that they are and refuting them publicly at every turn goes against no moral principle I can think of. If your principles prevent you from aggressively fighting to defend the constitution then your principles are crap.

"Fellow Freeper, your principles suck if they don't let you argue on the internet!"

So thus does Free Republic convince itself that everything has changed, even as they continue to bluster and lie, just as they always did.

Palin is dead. Long live Palin.
