As we all know, from time to time, the ranks of Democratic Underground seem to swell and inactive moles sleaze out of their holes to engage in a bit of tail twisting and delight in the yowls from the afflicted. At times the discourse gets a little bitter and disruptive; someone gets to go sit in the corner until they agree to play by the rules. Universally these creatures who wish to be obnoxious and intrude on civil discussion are referred to as "trolls." Often these trolls spend an inordinate amount of time surveying the landscape and planning their attacks, although others just barge right in, assuming their cyclopean wisdom is so obvious that everyone will glow in their revealed brilliance and only the dead-enders will miss the point and must, therefore, slink away in ignominious defeat. If this portrayal reminds anyone of a particular right wingy thingy, it would be no surprise. I would like to propose a re-framing of this whole picture by changing the name "troll" to one more appropriate to the current state in dismal stinky swamp. After considering many of the purveyors of the worst disinformation, I have settled on the epitome of stinky nonsense, the king of krap--Hannity. I am open to other suggestions, but, at this point, for punch, sheer sliminess and chickenshit trolliness, no one can beat Shawn Hannity.
Can we do it? From now, forward, we shall have no more trolls! We can be invaded by hannities, send a hannity to tombstone gulch, and what could be a nastier name to call someone you find sneaky or disgusting?
Who knows, we might just be able to offer a new product-an emetic called "The Hannity Enema!"
