During this election cycle, the moonstream media has dropped all pretenses of objective reporting and is losing readership/viewership accordingly.
Since, to them, the prism through which they look is "the way things are", anyone with an alternative viewpoint is summarily labeled and then rejected out of hand.
It's ironic that a group of people with such elitist condescension often lack the common sense that it takes to come in out of the rain.

A fake troll, or false troll.
Someone who posts an idiotic or inflammatory comment as a joke, not because they seriously believe what they are writing.
A prankster who assumes the online persona of a troll.
NOTE: It is important for the froll to be well known on the site in question, otherwise "the humorous impact is somewhat dissipated" when newbies think that the froll is a troll.

"Socialism is a fatally flawed ideology that has utterly failed the people it purported to help."
POST #2 (Troll)
"Well of course it did to a racist, sexist, bigot, homophobe like you. You and the other Chimpy McBushhitlerites probably want to grind up the lazy ass poor people and turn them into dog food! My food doesn't have parents. Meat is murder!
Likewise some workaholics are obscenely rich and it's not fair. The money that they have personally stolen from the Native Americans since 1492 should be taken away and given to the lazy ass poor people (so that they can become lazy ass middle class people). And what about WMDs and global warming? What about those, huh?
MEAN PEOPLE SUCK so I hope you eat a lot of fast food and die of a heart attack! Fascist bastards!"

Sacrastic and pessimistic name for Europe, based on the observation that Muslim immigration and population growth — coupled with European appeasement of Muslim cultural demands — will eventually lead the continent to become an Islamic Caliphate.
Popularized by writer B’at Yeor in her 2005 book Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis.

Failed Socialist policies and a climate of accomodation have transformed Europe into Eurabia.
It was chilling when an icon like Brigitte Bardot was prosecuted and fined for expressing her politically incorrect opinions. I was glad not to live in Frogistan (then I remembered that the PC Thought Police are trying to limit free expression in America too).

When President Obama proposed failed Socialist economic policies as a way to grow the economy, I felt a rainbow belch coming on.
One cannot simply "stick it" to producers (because of class envy, or a perverted concept of "fairness") and expect the economy to grow.
Likewise, America cannot tax itself into prosperity. The incentive to generate a profit is a cornerstone of job creation at every level.

A contraction of the phrase "monkey see, monkey do."
A muckadoo is often known by other names such as a liberal, a leftist, or a @#$% idiot. It is a creature that uses odd and illogical behaviors and speech patterns that it copied (sometimes with small variances) from another creature - usually another muckadoo.
They are located throughout the fifty states, though are rarer in some areas while extremely common in others. They tend to infest college campuses and often can be found online at such sites as Democratic Underground and commenting at Daily Kos.

MUCKADOO FAQ
Q. Can muckadoos be dangerous?
A. Easily startled, a muckadoo is rarely of any danger. Because of the shrill sounds they make and their pungent odors, they are classified simply as a nuisance.
Q. These muckadoos are all saying the same things. Are they really different muckadoos, or one posting under multiple names?
A. They are different muckadoos. What you have encountered is the mimicking behavior essential to a muckadoo. When a muckadoo sees something another muckadoo does or says, that appears "clever" or entertaining to the muckadoo, it will repeat said behavior now thinking itself to be "clever" (though the repeated behavior often has no real meaning when analyzed). This mimicry of muckadoos makes it hard to distinguish them from each other, but being so involved with muckadoos as to need to be able to tell them apart is discouraged.
Q. I see a large gathering of muckadoos yelling and waving signs. What is this?
A. Sometimes an alpha muckadoo will organize other muckadoos into a pack that meets at a specific place. Then when this pack of muckadoos encounters certain stimuli (usually T.V. cameras), they will begin to make noise and display their colorful signs. This phenomenon is called a "protest."
Q. What are they protesting?
A. Nothing. The name "protest" is a bit misleading as these muckadoo gatherings have nothing to do with protesting anything specific. Apparently, muckadoos gain great pleasure from making noise and waving signs, especially if given attention.
Q. I noticed the muckadoo has a strong, foul smell. Is this usual?
A. Yes. It's their main natural defense. If it becomes too much of a problem, try spraying the muckadoo with a hose.
Q. I sprayed the muckadoo with a hose, and he called me a "fascist." What does that mean?
A. Like many of the muckadoos utterances, it was something that once had a meaning, but such meaning is now lost. "Fascist" is simply a meaningless epithet used by a muckadoo to show displeasure with a person.
Q. Should we ever be concerned with the actions of muckadoos?
A. Though shrill and often seen on T.V., they are considered revolting by most Americans and have little effect on the country at large. Instead, they are a constant but harmless nuisance. To keep them from bothering your household, simply put out an American flag. Its bright colors tend to scare away muckadoos (though don't question their patriotism).
