This is the best 180 I've seen since the X Games.

Then you must be terribly unhappy, not that I care.  You accuse him of
being a misogynist, and unfit for office.  You tell us a police
investigation "wouldn't go amiss."  Then you tell us that you've no
conclusive evidence.  Finally, you tell us that you aren't happy
throwing around accusations you can't back up.  Why do you inflict such
unhappiness on yourself?

Of course, you'll claim that the word "seem" renders your accusations
something other than accusations, as would any frequent user of weasel
words.  If I tell you that you seem like a stray mutt that ought to be
put down, does "seem" take the edge off?

Correct.  It deserved pages of ridiculing sentences.

I am not interested in whom you have faith.  When some high-heeled
jackboot comes goose stepping through here and uses volumes of vapid
innuendo to smear a man, because she has nothing better, I'll stuff it
right back in her face.  I may read every rotting morsel of her work,
or I may scan it as one scans a long-winded resume that should be
summarized in a cover letter, and isn't.  Regardless, she'll hear from
me, and it won't be pretty.  If that frosts your feminazi cupcakes, you
can easily trim soc.men from the header.
