You know them too well, Arrow.

I guess they’d call her an “Uncle Tom” if she were a man. What would they call a woman– an “Aunt Jane” or something?

That’s what we’ve come to though, isn’t it? Anyone who supports human rights and equality is to be smeared, regardless of race or sex. They certainly did it with Clarence Thomas, they’ve hinted at it with Obama (biting their own on the Left) and even attacked Bill Cosby (one of the sweetest people on the planet) because he advocates personal responsibility and achievement. They went absolutely nuts over the appointment of pro-Constitution, anti-socialist Janice Rogers-Brown. They hated the appointment of Condi Rice, even before they knew much about her. If she’d been a hard-core Leftist, appointed by a Democrat, they’d have lauded her as “courageous” and a “ground breaker” who “beat the odds” and the president as having “made history” and such.

Alas, leftards never let facts cloud their ‘thinking’.

2. Attack the messenger.

Together, these two options constitute the totality of what they refer to of late as “Reasoned Discourse”.

The problem with option 1 is they eventually look completely disconnected with reality and are forced to live in a shrinking bubble of fellow, devout believers. The danger in option 2 is that the attack, if launched against someone with courage and voice, will bring more attention to the stupidity of the attacker and the insanity of the attacker’s position.

So, Laura, honey; which do you prefer?
