Today the WaPo is accusing the Tea Party as having something to do with the shooting in AZ. Don't you see the irony here? You use the same tactics.
As an ex Marxist this probably is a residual of your sick and demented past coming back to haunt you. You have a LONG way to go until you really mature as a conservative. I would recommend you just lurk awhile. You are a political neophyte and as such probably an embarrassment to the Neo Yankee Coven that has a lot more experience than you. You could learn for them.
I am curious, though...what do you really know of "leftist playbook" tactics? Ever been one? Watched a lot of Tom Clancy movies? Visited a few Chinese restaurants and now fancy yourself an expert on Maoism?
What of the Washington Compost? Does anyone believe they'd print anything other than demoncrat agitprop? Irony? See it? Probably no more than you see pink elephants dancing on your lawn after a few dinner aperitifs....unless, of course, you do see pink elephants.
You can save your amateurish psychobabble profiling for those who may be gullible enough to #1, care; #2, be predisposed to swallow it and #3 give a rats rear end. For you to be so full of yourself to imagine yourself to be qualified in bestowing conservative bonafides on anyone is laughable. You? The arbiter of who is "conservative"?? Puh-leeze!! Insurrectionist, yeah. Conservative? Noooooo! Sorry. I ain't buyin' it. Nor do many others. Yer jumpin' the shark, ole Reb.
