Doubly disingenuous

"I may insult entire political groups, or opinions, but I rarely, if ever, give an individual the personal reaming he probably so richly deserves."

Wow, Tom, two examples of weaseling in a single paragraph...

You pride yourself on your rationality, so I'm sure you'll pass the following test of logic and reasoning ability with flying colors:

1. Is the following construction true or false?
A. "Group X richly deserves a reaming."
B. "You are a member of group X."
Therefore: "You richly deserve a reaming."

2. Please complete the following logic sequence:
A. "All conservatives are bitter, paranoid windbags."
B. "Tom Brosz is a conservative."
Therefore: "Tom Brosz is a _______________________"

That was easy, wasn't it? For bonus points, please explain what I'm getting at.
