2. It's just so strange

Every time you scratch the surface of yet another "This Democrat is Horrible!" "controversy," it turns out that what the person actually said or did doesn't quite match up to the incendiary rhetoric used against him or her (and it's usually "her" ). And when you subject the shrillest of the critics to the least bit of scrutiny, "many people" becomes "some people" becomes "this one group you've never heard of" becomes "some odious Republican operative."

Uncanny, I call it.
