The Internets have lost their mind. We need to chill out a little

[nichomachus]

This is hilarious. HuffPo has a headline that says "Developing: Hillary slams Democratic activists"

However, it's a dead link. There is no story posted (as of this time)

And yet, as I write this, with no story on which to comment, there are 693 replies with people shrieking at each other like maniacs.

Now that's just crazy. Maybe we all need a hug, or a shot and a beer, or a latte -- or something.

1. Hugs are good! nt

2. Amen brother/sister!?

We're at that point in the silly season where we've simply forgotten what we're fighting about but just know we're fighting. Can you say Hatfields & McCoys?

3. ixnay on that latte!

Caffeine is likely playing a BIG part in all that shrieking. May I suggest the substitution of bong-hits for lattes?

4. It's up now.

"At a small closed-door fundraiser after Super Tuesday, Sen. Hillary Clinton blamed what she called the "activist base" of the Democratic Party -- and MoveOn.org in particular -- for many of her electoral defeats, saying activists had "flooded" state caucuses and "intimidated" her supporters, according to an audio recording of the event obtained by The Huffington Post."

7. You think we've lost our minds?

The following LTTE appeared in my paper.

"Sen Barack Obama and the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Christians? Not a chance.
The minister is pro-Palestine and anti-Israel. These men are no Christians.

This whole scandal was deliberate. It was meant to incite people against the Christian church, to give Obama free airtime
and allow him to answer the questions he wanted asked. How can you all be so blind?

And to the Christian church I have this to say: You are behaving badly. You use our Lord's name in vain and you make His
cross into a cheap idol. Your churches and ministers are who Jesus was speaking of when He said many will come in His name
(ministers), many will say here He is here or there (churches), but do not believe them."

This is what we're up against in PA. No fucking wonder we're going crazy.
