Busted... And Utterly Unashamed (Wizbang)

Last week, I pointed out how President Obama has mastered the art of attacking his adversaries in ways and in venues where they are constrained from hitting back. I called it many things, but "cheap-shotting" seems to sum it up.

Well, reliable dolt "Woop" just had to chime in:

Republicans playing the victim card.
It didn't work for Palin.
It won't work for Ryan.
Grow a pair.

Well, at that point, I figured "if he thinks that's fair, let's give it a whirl." And from then on, I've been liberally editing Woop's comments to have some fun with the moron. I've rewritten, censored, and wholesale trashed several of his comments, including one rather entertaining stretch where I compared his fixation with the Tea Party with Captain Queeg's (of the Caine Mutiny) fixation on some missing strawberries.

Anyway, Woop has finally whined about it and played the victim card. Oh, noes! Jay Tea is editing my comments! Help! Help! I'm being oppressed! Come and see the violence inherent in the system!

Poor Woop. He's being hoist on his own petard, he's having to lie in the bed he made, and he doesn't like it one bit.

Sorry, Woop. You made it clear that if one has the power to give out bitch-slaps with impunity, then they are free to do so -- and the recipient has no business "whining."

So I'm slapping you around. Quit your whining. I'll stop.

As soon as it gets boring.

Just don't cry about it, because that will make it even more fun.

I had no idea that I had gotten under your skin this thorougly, Jay. It must have been my comments pointing out that you were playing the victim card for Paul Ryan.

Have you noticed the increase in libs and dems posting comments? And the increase in the number of conservatives crying for banning?

Hint: When you have to declare yourself the winner -- you're losing. And when you have to resort to editing comments that make you look bad -- you've lost.

Thanks for jumping the shark for us, Jay. See you on the next thread.

And the one after that.

This is a blog, not a war. It's meaningless entertainment. Have no illusions we are influencing the discourse in any meaningful way.

Whoever you are, blogger, commenter, if you get that pissed off about something some random anonymous person writes in comments, the problem is with you.

It's bad form to edit comments, in my opinion, but if it makes the powerless and angry feel better and maybe prevents some other outbreak of hostility like going to the shopping mall with an AK, I can live with it.

Oh, Chico, no argument about it being bad form. That's why I almost never do it.

But when the chance to give Woop an applied lesson in his own beliefs arose, I couldn't resist. And while I knew it would be wasted on him, I thought others might find it entertaing. God knows I did.

Woop, you're right about there being an increase in leftists commenting here. But it's definitely a case of quantity over quality, because Teh Stoopid is strong in you and your compatriots.

You're also right, Woop, when you say that "when you have to declare yourself the winner -- you're losing." That's why I laughed so hard when you said "I never lose a debate with this crowd. It's shameful sometimes -- like shooting fish in a barrel."

As I recall, my response was "True. But you never win one, either. Because you don't debate."

Still waiting for you to actually take on an issue, and not try one of your several very boring gambits to change the subject...

Good for you, Jay. We're not the William Buckley conservative party any more, sipping our wine in salons and writing meek little editorials that attempt to educate the thuggish left.

We're using their own weapons against them. We're arming ourselves with video cameras to record their violent behavior. We're doing undercover work to expose the filth and disease of Planned Parenthood and Acorn. We're avoiding poisonous Hollywood movies and watching them tank at the box office, one after another. We're marching in the streets, we're using humor and satire, we're coming for the lefties and we're not going home until they are defeated.

I'm happy to see it happen! Keep up the good work, Jay.
