2. The newest class.
They come in waves. I think they follow the same cycles as the phases of the moon, the tides and the degree of froth from the RW talkers mouths.

3. They saw that lots of DUers hate Obama almost as much as they do....
And so they could fit in well without a great deal of difficulty.

4. How are you defining trolls?
Are they simply people who disagree with you?

6. Between white guys feeling persecuted, idiots wanting to keep the current health care system,
and the birthers, there are too many reasons not to stay away from this website.

32. That was my first thought.
You know they're hurting though when the traffic gets heavy. Always means they took a hit. LOL

9. We have a permanent coterie of cave dwelling fuckwads who are following everything that we post
They're a bunch of right wing, racist mommy boys who enhance their masturbation routines by joining up and posting outrageous bullshit from time to time.

They're reading this thread right now.

Give 'em a wave!

:hi:

26. I actually have my very own Maru Kitteh - before I found out about youtube Maru
Here's my Maru.




That link was meant to draw attention to a new visiting birther on the thread.

31. Yep, racist birfer...
It hit the threads re Gates/Crowley as well. Busy little troll but lacked creativity and had too few brain cells firing at all.

18. Seriously? I think DUs new definition of troll is anyone who doesn't agree with me.
That's all I'm seeing.

29. TROLL ALERT!
The "progressive" way to do it is so it rolls from behind.

Go back to Freeperville, troll!

28. Hmmmm.
They do seem to be breeding like hamsters, of late. And those of freeptoid inclination have all but taken over the comments sections of our local newspaper; about the only place free of their diatribes is obituaries.

33. The masks really fell off of some longtime DU'ers over the Gates case.
I see a couple of them even got the ultimate pizza delivery. The more boisterous defenders of Ofc. Crowley's actions seem to have gone silent...Gee, I wonder why?
