As much as we like to think otherwise, human behavior is fairly predictable, and sometimes ironically so. Muslims reacting to depictions of violence within the Muslim world (during the Danish cartoon controversy) with, well, violence, comes to mind.
This time around, it's been Obama supporters responding to my SFGate column on Palin Derangement Syndrome with, well, Palin Derangement Syndrome.
The avalanche of e-mails I received (not to mention the 913 comments at SFGate) was evidence of the collective nervous breakdown that has met Sarah Palin's arrival on the political scene. It was all there: the condescension, elitisim, sexism, paranoia, personal attacks, and irrational hatred.

...Sarah Palin is a hypocrite and a liar. Like McCain and his swift-boat campaign crew, you will tell any tale to keep the elitist Republican “greedies” in office. Just because she is a woman, you support her. It can’t be her resume…it’s too doggone thin. Republicans’ hail-Mary answer to a John McCain candidacy (old – last century politics) is to find a right-wing skirt to solidify a base that was thinking he isn’t the one. Go away.

Do not try to suggest that Obama is suffering from some syndrome. He realize that he has to treat her with kid gloves or white America will say that an angry black man attacking a white woman. D’ont B.S. tell it like it is if you have the guts. Plain is getting a free pass you know it and I know it.

Is there anyone who doesn’t believe that this isn’t a part of the program (seminar emailers)?
“A hit dog will holler”
My Dad’s expression is “Beat a dog & it’ll howl.”
Not that I’m comparing these Leftist women to dogs...I love dogs.
I’m gonna vote for McCain/Pailin.
because she’s cute! :)
Yeh - emotions are running high about now, but even so there is an element within the Democratic party that seems permanently stuck on trying to convince you that they’re not violent by threatening to kill you. Fortunately they’re not armed, but they might talk you to death.
The dishonest always hate the honest. The corrupt always hate the honorable.
“A RAT smells his own hole.”
Interestingly, when Gov. Palin threatened to clean up corruption, the Washington establishment and the Corrupt Newsmedia screamed bloody murder.
As Mike Huckabee observed: "If you toss a rock over a fence, it's the hit dog that hollers."
When Palen promised honesty and an end to corruption, lots of dogs hollered like hell! No wonder they're afraid of her.
“A RAT smells his own hole.”
That’s great! Putting it into the archive...w/your permission, of course.
Fresh from the McCain people.
JOE BIDEN’S 14 LIES DURING THE DEBATE!
1. TAX VOTE: Biden said McCain voted “the exact same way” as Obama to increase taxes on Americans earning just $42,000, but McCain DID NOT VOTE THAT WAY.
2. AHMEDINIJAD MEETING: Joe Biden lied when he said that Barack Obama never said that he would sit down unconditionally with Mahmoud Ahmedinijad of Iran. Barack Obama did say specifically, and Joe Biden attacked him for it.
3. OFFSHORE OIL DRILLING: Biden said, “Drill we must.” But Biden has opposed offshore drilling and even compared offshore drilling to “raping” the Outer Continental Shelf.”
4. TROOP FUNDING: Joe Biden lied when he indicated that John McCain and Barack Obama voted the same way against funding the troops in the field. John McCain opposed a bill that included a timeline, that the President of the United States had already said he would veto regardless of it’s passage.
5. OPPOSING CLEAN COAL: Biden says he’s always been for clean coal, but he just told a voter that he is against clean coal and any new coal plants in America and has a record of voting against clean coal and coal in the U.S. Senate.
6. ALERNATIVE ENERGY VOTES: According to FactCheck.org, Biden is exaggerating and overstating John McCain’s record voting for alternative energy when he says he voted against it 23 times.
7. HEALTH INSURANCE: Biden falsely said McCain will raise taxes on people's health insurance coverage -- they get a tax credit to offset any tax hike. Independent fact checkers have confirmed this attack is false
8. OIL TAXES: Biden falsely said Palin supported a windfall profits tax in Alaska -- she reformed the state tax and revenue system, it's not a windfall profits tax.
9. AFGHANISTAN / GEN. MCKIERNAN COMMENTS: Biden said that top military commander in Iraq said the principles of the surge could not be applied to Afghanistan, but the commander of NATO's International Security Assistance Force Gen. David D. McKiernan said that there were principles of the surge strategy, including working with tribes, that could be applied in Afghanistan.
10. REGULATION: Biden falsely said McCain weakened regulation -- he actually called for more regulation on Fannie and Freddie.
11. IRAQ: When Joe Biden lied when he said that John McCain was “dead wrong on Iraq”, because Joe Biden shared the same vote to authorize the war and differed on the surge strategy where they John McCain has been proven right.
12. TAX INCREASES: Biden said Americans earning less than $250,000 wouldn’t see higher taxes, but the Obama-Biden tax plan would raise taxes on individuals making $200,000 or more.
13. BAILOUT: Biden said the economic rescue legislation matches the four principles that Obama laid out, but in reality it doesn’t meet two of the four principles that Obama outlined on Sept. 19, which were that it include an emergency economic stimulus package, and that it be part of “part of a globally coordinated effort with our partners in the G-20.”
14. REAGAN TAX RATES: Biden is wrong in saying that under Obama, Americans won't pay any more in taxes then they did under Reagan.
The Pumas are the secret weapon. They are not voting for Obummer and we still haven’t heard what women are doing. Look for blowout come election day for Palin/McCain.
Pray for W, McCain/Palin and Our Troops

I’d be honored. My Dad had a number of unusal expressions, one of which I recently saw someone use here at FR.
As for the aphorism in question, it’s most common use concerns the passing of wind in a group setting, where the guilty party attempts to shunt ownership to someone else. The appropriate response is “a rat smells his own hole,” which of course is a double entendre when used as such.
However, I think the expression carries gravitas of its own even when used in other situations where blame is deflected by a guilty party.
He had one popular phrase, to be used when you had thought you were in a favorable position, and found the tables unexpectly turned. In such a case, you shout, “$h!t in the hat and pull it over my ears.”
However, the most cryptic verse employed by my elderly father is used in situations when decsribing one’s own or someone elses state of utter [newfound] confusion. To wit, “I don’t [he didn’t] know whether to $h!t or go blind.”
I’m not sure why my Dad had such scatalogical leanings, but it makes for great banter amongst my siblings.
Dennis Miller recently described someone as being so confused “he didn’t know whether to defecate or wind his watch” - sounds similar...in re other sayings, vis a vis “a rat...”, “A dog returns to his vomit”
My favorite is “If you’re taking flak, you’re over the target”
