Any blog with an audience as diverse as The Moderate Voice is sure to have a few right-of-center trolls lurking under the bridge who rush out and kneecap any commentator with whom they disagree before rushing back to hide in the shadows and nibble on their stash of Gramm crackers.
In a spare moment, I reviewed the comments from this crowd — they know who they are, eh AR? — over the past four days and was shocked, just shocked, to discover that of the 67 comments from trolls in response to my nattering, 60 were devoid of content save for Rovian ad hominem attacks.
Thanks, guys, for your determined efforts to drag the level of discourse down into the shadows under your bridge.
