arrocasm 

defense mechanism; combination of arrogance and sarcasm, in which the actual loser of a verbal debate negates any argument provided by the opposing side--often resulting in a sarcastic, "Oooooh, so I guess that settles it" response. Can be used directly or indirectly.
Directly:
"But you can't fire me. I literally just said two seconds ago that I quit!"
"Nope, I fired you, sorry."
"But I..."
"Nope, you're fired."
"Such arrocasm!"

Indirectly:
1. "Mr. President, we punished Japanese soldiers during WWII for waterboarding OUR soldiers. It's clearly torture."
"I assure you, America does not torture."
"Sir, we are legalizing a procedure that was punished when used against us!"
"What don't you get? America does not torture. We are defenders of freedom."

2. NBC News Economic strategist: "We are in a recession."
