Dear Anonymous,
Thank you so much for taking time out of what I assume is a busy schedule to read and comment on my blog. Since usually the comments that are left anonymously require little to no direct response, please take some extra time to answer a few questions for me in this form letter, since you are obviously intent on getting my attention.
How did you find my blog? Since most of these anonymous comments seem to pop up when my entries are of a political vein, did you happen to just google the term "people who's opinions differ greatly from my own narrowminded point of view so that I may therefore lambast them for not fitting into my feeble perspective"? Or did you simplify it to just "Liberal Scum"? Is this how we get our rocks off early in the day, by attempting to rile yourself by reading about people who actually use their brains instead of allowing the media to think for them? I can imagine you drinking your coffee, with a self important and smug cock to your head, turning a few shades of purple as your eyes cross over my oh-so evil words. And yes, I realize that your tender sensibilities must have been so agitated by my prolific use of foul language. I can completely understand that the only logical conclusion your holier than thou head could have reached is that I am uneducated white trash. After all, only stupid people learn those dirty words, right? Heaven forbid people who write on a BLOG would dare slip into a more casual vernacular.
However, please know that if you entered this blog via my website, there WAS a warning on the front detailing the horrible offenses that were about to dance in front of your eyes. If you found it on it's own, reading half a paragraph would've told you the type of person I am (ie, completely and utterly evil in your mind), and thus SHOULD have turned you off immediately from reading any further. Heck, the BY LINE of the blog should tip you off to some extent. Yet you keep reading. Utterly fascinating. You must be a masochist! They have groups for that, you know.
I've also noticed that although you are posting to share your obvious disappointment in my presence as part of the human race, you have neglected to share what it is you might actually be doing that would, oh say, be a better course of action to any of my own. With our last anonymous, for example, this person seems to feel the need to 'call me out' on my mention that I actually do write my legislators (which I really do, by the way, though I see not the need to provide any proof. To do so would only be to clutter up my blog with copies of the multitudes of letters that exit my sent box every week, and would be boring to all of my more devoted readers). Yet this person didn't mention if they actually do or not. In fact, I can't actually see a purpose to that particular anonymous's post, except perhaps to just appear as an annoyance on my radar. Quite noble, really, as I do so enjoy having this particular fodder for a blog entry. Often times these anonymous entries choose to attack me personally, rather than giving genuine, educated critic. This is disheartening, as I would hope an intelligent person could write an unbiased and less "below the belt" response to my writings. Instead, you choose to attack my moral character, my education level, and sometimes even my parenting abilities, which oddly enough, have nothing to do with the Blog Entry in question. Perhaps this is because you are too weakminded to actually come up with a reason for disagreeing with me? Or are you really just so pathetic and inept in your own life that you make yourself feel better by choosing to attack someone anonymously on the internet with little to no valid cause?
Also, why do you so often chose to post anonymously? I do realize that with the anonymity of the internet, you have no fear of actual retaliation by me, and of course you can sit smugly back in your chair, assuring your self-righteous and dignified derriere that you have irritated some complete stranger for the simple offense of thinking differently than you. But doing so seems awfully cowardly to the rest of us.
And lastly, why do you choose to keep coming back? Is it to see by some sick virtue just how far I can push your buttons by continuing my own succinctly contemptuous behavior? Or are you simply just a very confrontational person in need of anger management therapy?
Now, to answer one of your own...why do I write the things that I do? Well, not that I need explain, but I will to the best of my abilities. First off, my political tirades are to indeed spark interest in my readers. I want the people who read these things to actually think about the events/issues that fuel my wrathful typing. I know my own single letter to a political figure may not make much of a difference. But if I write about it on here, the people who read will start thinking. And maybe 2 out of every 10 readers will be inspired enough to delve further into said issue and write a letter of their own. And those two people will converse with others, and of those vast numbers, a few may also write. It's a domino affect, and a highly effective one. Thusly, a blog entry followed by a letter I write can equate to approximately 10 to 20 letters following shortly after.Or, since most of my readers are actually friends of mine, they will be guilted by having a diligent and self-righteous friend such as me into taking meager action. Anyone who actually knows me is painfully aware of the Mamahood Soapbox, but they tolerate it by following my humble requests to perform small tasks like writing their own letters in followup to mine).
But the most simple explanation is that I am who I am, I chose not to hide that, and I pay for the website that this blog is attached to, and therefore, can type, do, and feel whatever the FUCK I want to, and frankly could give a flying shit how offended you might be.
Good Day, and please quit pestering me. It's gotten old.
Sincerely, Motherhoodlum

Well said! Amazing how some people condem those who view the world differently then they do.It's idiots like that who prevent civilization from progressing; & yet they're still allowed to to run around & breed even more idiots ( they do so love their groups. Perhaps because they're so feeble minded that they can only justify their existance in numbers.)! However, seeing that there are those of us who aren't as narrow minded, we will forgive these poor, misguided creatures for their lack of intelligence, & hope for a day when the breeding ends.
You know I don't see eye-to-eye with you on many issues but I do enjoy seeing you rip into a person like this . However I can't help but wonder if writing such a lengthy rant is just feeding the troll.
Then again, something tells me you enjoyed writing it. :D

Oh my gosh, please tell me you dont go into work looking like that ( your pic). Oh wait, youwork at Radio shack~they have a very liberal (if any) dress code. Horrors. Yes, I write my senators constantly concerning many issues. I dont get wordy in my letters nor to ramble~just straight to the point! I love it! By the way, your picture on this current blog "report" shows how utterly trashy you are. People with anger or disgust can do so with out the vugarity and halloweenish look.
Of course I enjoy goading them. If I didn't, I would simply turn off the ability on this blog to post anonymously.
Anonymous, thank you for proving my point, now you are attacking the way I look. Brilliant.
And no I don't go into work looking like that, that WAS my halloween costume, jackass. And Vulgarity is spelled with an L.
Derr de deerrr. Can't retort to motherhoodlum's well written letter so you had to revert to preschool skills?
Do yourself a favor and take an acid bath. Make sure it's sulfuric, 6 moles.
Thanks for letting me know it was a costume....very freaky looking. And I do realize vulgarity has an "L" in it~~just a simple typo is why it was spelled incorrectly. But, I feel sad for your child having to grow up in a home with a mother that spouts crazy stuff and uses language that is not for children. Sure, yoou most likely dont curse at your son but I can only imagine the filth that comes out of your mouth if you get angry with your hubby or are maybe chatting with a friend in your home and your poor little boy has to hear that garbage. I know, nothing I say will change trash to treasure.
Aaaaaaaaaah, there it is, the below the belt attack on me as a parent. Because you being so wise and omnipitent would know what would actually go on in my household. Or should you, because I think ANY parent would love some complete stranger to spout off a highly inaccurate and grossly judgemental comment about them as a human raising their child. I really hope you don't have your own children, anonymous (and seriously, quite hiding behind the internet, you fucking coward). No other parent would have the balls to dare call out another based on the narrow perspective shown in something like a blog. Do you even realize what a blog is? It's my PERSONAL soapbox. I spout crazy stuff? What, questioning our government? Glad to know you think the forefathers of this nation were just as loony, damn them all for giving me the freedom of speech! Damn, oh, say a whopping MAJORITY of this nation that are currently questioning this administration's tactics.
You can only imagine whatever you like about my homelife, but you can damn well keep your mouth shut about it. You aren't my neighbor, you aren't my relative, so you can back the fuck off, and get the fuck off my website.
As fun as it was batting you around, I have the one power you don't. The power to turn off your voice in this particular medium. I don't mind you questioning me and my arguments. You have yet to actually say anything worth arguing, though. If you perhaps would bing up a valid rebuttal to anything I've said, I'd gladly continue this debate. But I see no need to continue to defend myself against personal attacks by SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT KNOW ME. And I'm sorry, but going to my ability as a parent is going way too far, so your time in this discussion is now over.
Have a nice day, anonymous, but you can go pester someone else who has the time and energy to deal with this sort of petty warfare.
"Applause, Applause!!" Bravo, Mother!!!!! Very well said on all counts!!! I doubt that you will be hearing from anonymous again, now that they cannot hide. I never could understand why someone had to hide who they are; unless their lives were in danger.
i think it's funny that anonymous keeps coming back, but says, in the last line of the last comment, "I know, nothing I say will change trash to treasure."
what's the fucking point of coming back then, if not to argue? and you do it so poorly. you argue like a 2nd grader. and no one here has any idea what kind of parent you are, as we have no way of finding out what you do with your spare time.
i know many parents (my own late father and living stepmother) who share your views (apparently), and who's kids (myself included) can't stand to be around them, and wouldn't piss on their face if their teeth were on fire.
and there seems to be no studies showing that excessive use of vulgar language in any way negatively affects children, unless it is directed at them. why do you keep harping on this one thing? is that all you've got? shit, i would've liked my parents more if once in a while they had let loose a blue streak when they were mad.
i think your kind of behavior (commenting anonymously on people's blogs who don't agree with you, followed by uninformed attempts at making them feel small) only proves that you are a lonely, sad, and empty person desperate to fill your life with something.
do yourself (and everyone else who visits this blog regularly) a favor, go out and make some friends. learn to play an instrument that you don't already play. join a pottery group, or a book club. get busy. fill your life with things that you find enjoyable and fulfilling, and quit wasting your time trying to aggravate others.
