Disturbing: Inside The Mind Of A Liberal Troll
As a Conservative columnist on the internet, I get my share of Liberal Trolls. They just seem to come out of the woodwork, as if they have some sort of ant-like antennae that tingles when a Conservative is using facts, analysis, and insight to put the Progressive ideology to shame. Then they swarm, using ad hominem attacks and cries of “It’s Bush’s fault!” as if that shields their leaders from taking any blame for their actions.
I have tried to discover what makes a Liberal Troll tick. Or more appropriately – what makes a Liberal Troll like a tick. My conclusions will haunt you.
At the heart of any Liberal Troll “position” is an intellectual dishonesty that defies logic. They will stake out a position that they know can be overrun by facts, and they insist that they are right. Sometimes they’ll even admit their wrong with their words and yet hold fast to their position with their thinking.

How to recognize a liberal Troll.
The George Soros Trolls:
These professionally paid trolls are the worst. Luckily there are not many of them and you can spot them very easily. They are full time trolls that lurk in the dark waiting for an opportunity to unload a plethora of tools at an unsuspecting conservative. They use cue and paste tools like a Japanese Jensu knife expert. Nobody types that fast. Not even Superman. So when you are being swamped with paragraphs of liberal socialist double-talk without even sending one 5 word response, chances are you are being hacked by a George Soros Troll. These are the trolls you need to booth off the site. Make them earn their silver pieces. Yet, these trolls are the easiest to piss off especially if you too are an expert at cutting and pasting. Like me.

Internet Trolls Are Narcissists, Psychopaths, and Sadists
In this month's issue of Personality and Individual Differences, a study was published that confirms what we all suspected: Internet trolls are horrible people.
Let's start by getting our definitions straight: An Internet troll is someone who comes into a discussion and posts comments designed to upset or disrupt the conversation. Often, in fact, it seems like there is no real purpose behind their comments except to upset everyone else involved. Trolls will lie, exaggerate, and offend to get a response.
What kind of person would do this? Some Canadian researchers decided to find out.
They conducted two online studies with over 1,200 people, giving personality tests to each subject along with a survey about their Internet commenting behavior. They were looking for evidence that linked trolling with the "Dark Tetrad" of personality traits: narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy, and sadism.
