"Replace those Indian names with other ethnic names if you still don't get the picture. He's right and an otherwise excellent take-down of the Right's forthcoming hard times is diminished because of it."

What part of "SATIRE" do you morons not understand? The entire post is a sarcastic jab at something yet you complete morons latch on to one thing one coward says - without explanation - and run with it. Just so you can avoid talking about the point. It's so obvious.

"Thus, an angry conservative accuses another of “racist” hostility."

And then move on to sexism. because the only thing that scares these boys more than the scary non-white people are wimmin!

"aybe if I picked a couple of gangsta rappers you would have understood. "

Ahhh, so as a way to try to manufacture racism on our part, you post something racist. Shocker!

"In other words, he sent his little minions over here since he couldn't be bothered to come himself."

Obviously. But, at least he could have sent marginally intelligent ones. This is like watching a group of conservative lemmings chuck themselves of a cliff at record speed.

Lke this:

"Oh, that makes bigotry all right, then."

Where did I endorse bigotry again? Oh right, nowhere. You just had to say something, even if it made no sense.

"By the way, trolling is posting "messages with the intent of inciting an argument or flame-war."

Sure, if it's on a blog where you're not a regular. Check the community page, genius. Who's among the top commentors?

"You've laid the an ad homonym attack on everyone you disagree with."

Don't trot out the logical fallacy defense if you don't actually know what they mean, k?

"So, is Boondoggle part of your first name or your last name? Just so people who are so inclined (present company excluded) know where to send the hate mail. :)"

Ah, threats. You cowards are good at threats. But next time, to show us what a real bigot you are, make it threats of rape, mutilation and murder. You people should be real familiar with that.

"As for ignoring the actual point, what exactly was the point of this "brilliant" post?"

*snort* it's not mommy's job to do your homework for you. Big boys do their own reading! Of course, when you completely lack reading comprehension, that's kind moot.

"Actually Betty has done as good a job of ignoring Ponnuru's point"

What point was that again? Oh, right, the one that's already been defeated. And, what is it about you boys that makes you think anyone takes you seriously enough to engage you seriously? I'm MOCKING you, silly troll. Catch up!

"and trolling is as trolling does *honey* If Betty weren't so morbidly entertaining, I'd have ignored her posts enitrely.

Awww, poor widdle sexist douchebag - to dumb to check the community page or look up the meaning of troll before he tries to use it.

"That was a vibrator crack, right? Dude, everyone knows the best vibrators use wall current"

Is that what that coward meant? Hubby will totally be complimented that he was compared to a vibrator. Such staying power!

"Betty, sweetie, honey, sugar pop (condescend much?)"

To trolls, yes.

"I read the post. It had nothing of actual value to say."

Translation: I can't think of anything to say! Quick! Just repeat what she said!

"This makes me a troll in your scale-laden eyes (make-up free, natch)."

I love make-up, especially lavenders. Makes me look all frosty. I love it!

So, in the future, spare us your boring, stale sexist stereotypes. It's so lazy!

"There's no temper displayed in my post. No tantrum. No crying. No whining. Just me pointing out your hypocrisy, which as we all know, is third after sexism and racism of executable offenses."

Actually, you've done nothing but whine. But of course, you know that. If trying to insult a half-black, half-asian woman with empty, flaccid accusations of bigotries I have neither displayed nor advocated and which you, clearly, have no clear grasp of is the sum total of your point, excuse me while I yawn.

"Ponnuru linked to this site, giving what is no doubt a record spike in traffic judging by your lone attempts to cover your ass (which is, undoubtedly a formidable task)."

Omg, now sizism too? Is there no pathetic and stupid bigotry you boys won't stoop to when you've totally embarrassed yourselves?

"Instead if defending the indefensible, you resort to name calling and typical lib smart-assetry. So, name-calling it is."

What am I defending? I'm mocking a bigot troll. You've made no point, you've proven nothing (except what a lazy bigot you are). So, you've left us not much to work with. Aside from mocking you and your bigotry. Which I love to do, so bring it on.

"You are sexist in your failed and girly attempts at taunting me. Now THAT is funny."

You're just posting words and an effort to pretend you know what you're talking about now, aren't you.

"I'd hate to have your "D" cell battery bill..that would even put a dent in my billions."

*LOL* what in the world does that mean?

"I leave you now to your continued obscurity, already in progress."

Bubbye bigot coward!

"Imagine what it will do to our political discourse if every pundit on MSNBC and every token liberal on Fox News sounded like Leon Spinks and Buckwheat. It's too horrible to think about.

Does the mirror image look like racism to your finely tuned eyes?"

Can someone translate the trollese for me? I don't understand this nonsense.

Oh goodie! unverifiable, unsubstantiated anecdote time!

" They say conservatives are all rich country club types. Well that's not realy true since I am not a country club type and that doesn't answer the question."

You're right - it begs another question - why do you align yourself with people who deliberately make things worse for us non-country-club types? That makes no sense!

"And I say that I can point them to many evangelicals who are not homophobic and that opposition to gay marriage need not indicate homophobia."

*lol* So there's a non-religious reason they're bigots. So what?

"Also there are plenty of non-evangelicals that are opposed to gay marriage."

Yep, they're called BIGOTS.

"And they say all conservatives are gun-clutching neandrethals. And I say that the right to self protection is one of the most important rights we have that should not be ceded to the state."

I'm an ex cop, and I own multiple guns. Try a new line of baloney, troll.

" If your recourse in a discuss of political philosphy is to regurgitate stereotypes about it's practitioners then I suggest that maybe you need to do a little self -examination."

you mean like you just did for an entire post?

"What's next, Betty, a blackface routine about Clarence Thomas and Shelby Steele?"

I knew it wouldn't be long before the racism came out. Thanks for not disappointing!

"You know, I suspect that is not the real George Soros posting above."

YOu mean the real Soros would have better things to do than stupidly troll a feminist blog?

"Endorse McCain and see how long you'd have guest posting privileges here."

new 'round these parts, aren't ya. See, we're not you. No matter how hard you want to pretend we are. There's a pouting room out back for y'all to console each other.

Oy, another simpleton troll.

"(I'm a "troll" for psoting here. Ponnuru is a coward for NOT posting here...nice rules)"

No sweetie, dumpling, honey pie, you're a troll because you're trolling. If you'd actually READ the post, or had something of actual value to say, you would have by now. So far, it's all tempter tantrum. See, ain't that simple!

"(please cite examples of instead of using your thesaurus)"

ever single one of your posts.

"( prove it)"

Oh, c'mon. Is this the best you can do? "prove it". because, clearly, if I'm not cowering before your awesome manliness, I'm not really a woman. *lol* goodness, you boys are easy.

"(I like it when womyn call people who disagree with them names...it's so...cute!)"

So, you use sexism to cover the fact that you're just pulling stuff out of your rear. That's very effective at proving you're NOT a troll. Really.

"(Either that, or he thinks the post speaks for itself and doesn't think his audience needs hand-holding fellow travellers to expIain things to them [see: mirror, look into])"

*lol* Perhaps, honey, baby, darlin' he knows you'll accept whatever he says. Perhaps he also knows that his baloney would be eviscerated by people who can actually thing for themselves (you know, NOT conservatives), so he refrains from willingly humiliating himself. Perhaps, he CAN'T explain it, and so, DOESN'T.

Who knows. The point is, this is the internet, where anything can be made to sound like anything else when there's no context. (and, sometimes, even when there is context). not explaining means he's left the door open for any interpretation. And I've chosen it - COWARDICE.

"(define "macho")"

Macho: what sexist boys do instead of being men.

You know what else I like: obvious sockpuppets.

And, how conservatives always pick on imaginary thing to harp on in order to ignore the actual POINT.

"on the other hand, our current "unconditionally support Israel" policy could use some work too."

Prezactly. There's a happy medium between unconditional support and unconditional rejection. We need to find it.

"But to go from "this action by the Israeli government was wrong" to "we should not support the existence of the state of Israel"...well, I have to wonder if some on the Left have accidentally absorbed some antiSemitic memes."

Of course they have. The same way they've absorber other racist memes, sexist memes, ableist memes, etc.

"I like how bettyboondoogle calls Punnuru a coward for alerting his readers to this piece of crap post and linking to it on his own blog, instead of doing it here, where he has no readers. Is it really too difficult for you, brave "betty"?"

I like how trolls roll in to pout, cry, whine and whinge whenever women disagree with them. I also like how, in using the excuse "he has no readers here!", the troll attempts to (badly) justify a lazy post devoid of even bare minimum content from a coward. I also like how no explanation from the coward was necessary because his oh-so-macho defenders swallow it without thought.

It's fun playing this "i like game" georgie-pie!

I like how Ponnuru is too much of a coward to come here and say it, though. It's much more macho to say it elsewhere, where comments are not allowed.

*cue chicken impressions* Coward.

"Okay, why would we want to withdraw our support for one of only two truly working, liberal, secular democracies in the Middle East?"

Oh c'mon Flew! *EVERYBODY* knows that the JEWS are the ONLY problem in that area. I mean, c'mon! haven't you read the Protocols of the Elders of Zion?!

/snark

Admittedly, there is no small amount of a "To Serve Man" Twilight Zone feel of Christian support of Israel, so I get why one might want religious orgs to butt out, as it were, but for our gov't to remove support completely just seems outrageously irresponsible. That's not to say there isn't legitimate criticism of Israel to be stated and heard. But completely abandoning Israel seems like a punishment more than a reach for justice.

"Now I'm an atheist, acknowledge my own bisexuality, fully pro-choice, and hang out on blogs like this one. I assure you, it's genuine."

As a bisexual, atheistic former PP volunteer, this warms the cockles of my cold, cynical heart.
