From the The Liberal Debating Manual (San Francisco: PeeCee Publishers, 2010):
No matter what position your conservative opponent takes on any issue, choose one or more epithets from the following list and label him with it:
Racist, bigot, fascist, sexist, intolerant, homophobic, Islamophobic, xenophobic.
Mix and match, and repeat as necessary. Never ever engage conservative arguments. To do so is to admit that your enemy is a rational being with a point of view worth considering. Never credit a conservative with reason, moral decency or intellectual insight. The smear is extremely effective if repeated often enough. Never miss an opportunity to play the race card. Insult and demean. Tea-Partiers are 'teabaggers.' If they reply in kind, act shocked and insist on the double-standard: we are morally and intellectually superior people while you are scum. How can you object when we call you what you are: bigots, racists, scumbags?
Keep your eye on the prize and never forget that winning is all that counts. The end justifies the means. Example here.
