Bork-o-matic: Not Funny?
A copy of our Bork-o-matic flow chart was posted as a comment on the progressive site Think Progress. The commenter, “Giacomo,” is apparently a regular there. Some of the other commenters don’t get the joke:
(to Giacomo): Glad you decided to stop playing a moderate on this blog. You find that flow chart funny huh? This can’t be the same man that comes here day after day to lecture on respecting others even if we disagree. This can’t be the same man that chastises liberals who ridicule conservatives. This can’t be the same man that isn’t willing to call a lie a lie unless Dubya himself were willing to stand up and say “I lied”. Surely this isn’t the same man that claims blanket statements or assumptions about people based on party affiliation are immature and hurt America.
My eyes must be deceiving me. Surely he isn’t guilty of the very behaviors he sits on his high horse and condemns daily. HYPOCRITE….thy name is Giacomo.
and the response by “Giacomo:”
Nice sense of humor you got there … relax … it’s a flow chart meant to be a humorous over-simplification.
which was met with
it is not a simple flow chart, it’s an attack period.
To which we reply: get a sense of humor.
Glad we could stir the pot (even if we weren’t credited).
