We've had a mini-episode of PUMA content popping up recently- unfortunately, the community-imposed moratorium on PUMA related diaries ain't gonna hold up. Ahh, well, such is life, eh?
But if you weren't clued in on the content of my diary by the title, lemme just re-emphasize it- let 'em rot! Just ignore 'em!
To illustrate my point, here's a photo depiction of yer average PUMA-
And here's an excellent depiction of their attitude-
So we all know that giving them attention is precisely what they're craving. This, however, flies in the face of the reality that they don't matter. Period. Zippo. That's the end of the line.
I know, I know- it's particularly galling. Some of the PUMA heavyweights exude ignorance of reality that is sickeningly fascinating. It made you wonder whether their delusions were driven by politics or psychosis, whether you should be angry at them or pity them.
We've seen the kind of people we'd have been dealing with if the roles had been reversed- that's probably the worst part for me, personally. I'd have been sorely disappointed, but I would have gladly supported Senator Clinton if the tables had been turned- certainly considering Senator McCain's behavior as of late.
Look at some of the ex-Clinton diehards who have stuck around. Bobswern and I, for example, had a particularly contentious relationship throughout the primary season, but now I make a point to hotlink his new diaries because they're consistently damn good. And sricki? She was so quiet in the primary season, and now, I can't read enough by her.
At the worst, I'd have worked like hell for Tom Periello and Mark Warner, since my state wouldn't have been staffed with any Clinton '08 offices. But we've seen the people who assured us they would work with the nominee, that they expected us to join in with party unity if/when Senator Clinton became the nominee- and they are duplicitous and pathological liars. Hell, they've shown they don't even actually care about Senator Clinton!
No matter to that, however, the answer to their behavior is... can anyone guess?
IGNORE THEM! I ventured into the maw that is Alegre's Soapblox; I've seen Big Pink. Here's the level of their discourse-
Really, it's the blogging equivalent of standing on top of a building screaming "I'M GOING TO JUMP! I'LL DO IT!" It's a ploy for attention. I would be more concerned if I hadn't heard anything from them.
But a quick glimpse of their quasi-racist, tremblingly irate screeds reveals this:
And the site they've chosen for their meeting place in Denver says it all:
So, please folks, just remember- grant these people all the attention and seriousness that their position and demeanor merits.
