Reply #159: A-ha -- another GOP psy op

[Cats Against Frist]

Technically, it's the "style-over-substance" fallacy -- I call it the "GOP Rules of Discourse" fallacy -- and YES, other Goppers tried to use it on the occasion of Reagan's death -- "How dare you insult him when he's just died and his family is greiving," or simply a blanket, "it is unkind to speak ill of the dead."

It's also unpatriotic to speak out against our president.
It's "outrageous" to call fascists fascists.
You can't talk bad about Reagan because he died.
If you yell or otherwise show emotion, you're "wild eyed."
John Kerry is a "bad, bad man" for speaking about Mary Cheney.

Why do people fall for their bullshit? What kind of idiot do you have to be?
