A ritual term of abuse used of liberals by wingers when the winger lacks a substantive response to an argument. Synonym: "Shut up!" Sometimes used ironically by liberals. Usage example, with irony: I used to like Paul Krugman when he wrote about economics, but lately he's been getting too shrill (from Atrios).

What about Obama's awesome awesomeness?
I thought even his political adversaries got Obasmic around him.
Does this mean that those of us who asked for proof that he could get GOP to go along aren't racists after all? Oh, wait, there's the possibility of a quadruple bank shot off the scoreboard and rafters. Oh, and that picture of VP Joe Biden is soooo dreamy.
Only tyrants rig elections.
Thank God we don't have to deal with Hillary's "divisiveness!"
We could have had something dreadful like HOLC in the stimulus. Whew! Obamacans FTW!
Look, the button even includes the number of House GOP votes Obama got. Awww. It's like they knew or something.
Please, Obama, wake the hell up and kick these GOP fuckers past the goalpost of life itself! Please!
