I think Realtors(tm) are starting to feel they are under siege.

Their livelihood is at stake, and they are quick to take offense at even the mildest criticism.

Well, how about a psychological explanation? Although I am by no means a psychologist, it does sound like the interplay has a bit of Kleinian projective identification mixed in.

She's accusing you of doing what she actually does. Example: Tim promotes realtor hate talk. Yet in the comment thread, she engages in bubble hate talk.

Sorry, I went and posted there. Sandy is so clueless and belligerent I just couldn't help but comment on a few things.

As to the reason she's so snappy, I agree with biliruben. When she joined on the blog she was probably dreading you and the other "bubbleheads" coming over and refuting her with actual data and common sense. She may have even seen the mayhem over on some posts at RCG, where housing permabulls and realtors are routinely put in their place and was trembling in fear. So she readied up a bunch of statements she thought she would use on you and when the inevitable came she pulled the trigger too fast and too many times than was warranted in the situation. Overcompensation.
