“It’s just unfortunate that these particular idiots seem to be on “our” side.”
Some of these “idiots” are not on our side, I am sure. I believe that there probably are “internet trolls” pushing the most ridiculous theories, but that they are probably the Obot crowd, pretending to be right wingers in order to tarnish us as nutjobs. There are probably a few with FReeper accounts trolling these threads doing just that.
I’m beginning to believe that is true — but it still doesn’t excuse the vast majority of sane conservatives who, either out of fear, or a desire to get along, refuse to call out these idiots for what they are.
