The outrage junkies and the anoint Hillary crowd are working overtime. [View all]

It's the 2008 election cycle all over again.

"Hillary WILL be the nominee so if ANYONE says ANYTHING negative about her the Democratic Party is DOOMED!" (paraphrasing only slightly)

Don't so much as wince when Hillary wears her religion on her sleeve or the two groups will join to form the perfect storm.

"OMG - Tom Tomorrow is being CONTROVERSIAL!?!?!"

"OMG - The Rude Pundit is being RUDE!?!?!"

I've served on 4 juries in the last 24 hours and everyone of the alerts was a bullshit attempt to silence discussion about the rude one.

I served as a real juror once in an attempted murder trial and came home exhausted and completely disillusioned with the jury system so I guess I shouldn't be surprised when the DU jury system lets me down.
