how the "right" answers serious criticism

From freerepublic

This post seems pretty representative of how the "right" answers serious criticism of real problems - they make up completely unrelated insults! The initial post is an intelligent observation of the weaknesses of Powell & Rice. Instead of addressing any of the concerns mentioned (because there obviously is no defense for the lies these people told the American public), the answers are all shouts of "morons", "you lost", and attacks on John Kerry!!! Don't you love serious debates?!
