Virtually every piece is filled with anger, filled with ad hominem responses to arguments, filled with insults of opponents and at the same time devoid of intellectual arguments. A Frank Rich column is essentially a weekly tantrum meant to make his readers nod in agreement and reinforce their contempt for those who differ with them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Frank Rich<\/em>? Prager can&#8217;t take <em>Frank Rich<\/em>-level invective? Jeez, one can but hope Prager doesn&#8217;t discover the Internet anytime soon, the chickenshit little prissy-ass fuckfaced twerp, &#8217;cause the vile stuff he finds <em>there<\/em> might just shrivel up his nubby little dick so much he won&#8217;t be able to <a href=\"http:\/\/pandagon.net\/index.php\/site\/comments\/shit_you_should_not_say\/\">rape his wife<\/a> properly <a href=\"http:\/\/firedoglake.com\/2008\/12\/30\/dennis-pragers-helpful-marital-advice-to-the-ladies-part-ii\/\">in the way Jesus intended<\/a>. (And if you think I&#8217;m being just a tad harsh on the hideous poisonous pissant asslicker insect, click those last two links and get back to me.)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, the problem Prager has with Rich is that Rich said that the people who squawk the loudest about getting rid of Don&#8217;t Ask Don&#8217;t Tell are (my paraphrase) great horrible homophobic shit-for-brains bigots. As my esteemed colleague Dr. B. Texan <a href=\"http:\/\/firedoglake.com\/2010\/02\/09\/dennis-prager-angry-that-conservative-anti-gay-hysteria-not-seen-in-a-more-positive-light\/\">has pointed out<\/a>, this is in fact a pretty accurate description of Prager himself, as well as the swine he lies down with. But waah, waah, Prager stamps his itty-bitty feet and bawls that it&#8217;s just not twoo, he is a Big-Boy who Makes Big-Boy Intellectual Arguments in favor of brainless hateful discrimination against people his God tells him are going to Hell because of how abominable they are:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div class='wbq'>\n<p>Where is this mainstream conservative &#8220;explicit anti-gay animus?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>That would be in the active campaigning to deny gays equal rights, dumbass. We don&#8217;t fucking find that sort of behavior particularly endearing. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think you deserve to marry the person you love! C&#8217;mere and give Uncle Denny a hug and we&#8217;ll discuss this as intellectual equals!&#8221; You know, fuck off.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<div class='wbq'>\n<p>And why are the arguments that gays in a military unit may fall in love with one another (or with a straight person) or that for the same reason &#8212; sexual tension &#8212; that we do not have men and women in the same units, showering and sleeping together, we might not deem it a good idea to have sexual tension in an all-men&#8217;s unit &#8212; why are these arguments &#8220;loopy&#8221; and &#8220;groundless&#8221;?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Because, moron, they&#8217;re &#8220;really fucking stupid.&#8221; Look, you not-remotely-smart person whose mental processes most closely resemble that of a meth-addled goat whose brain has rotted away from the effects of acute untreated tertiary syphilis caused by promiscuous chimp-fucking, <em>the current policy allows gays to serve now<\/em>, and thus all this (largely imaginary) &#8220;sexual tension&#8221; <em>is already going on<\/em>. It&#8217;s just that nobody can talk about it without getting kicked out in disgrace.
