The only thing OP did was to post a link and ask WTF. How is that ginning up "outrage" at Dems? I barely saw that little smilie.

I see nothing at all wrong with the OPs post, even if he/she/it was on the other side desperately hoping we fail. I think you have more outrage at the article than at OP. I don't think that OP needs any schooling from you.

One thing about DU is that people are free to post links and invite discussion. The only rule for the TOS is that you can't ding Dems. Well, I don't see why asking WTF would amount to that. Surely, if OP wanted to know further, he/she would have asked--as WTF implies.

All our nerves are on edge. We are going to be tiptoeing through the tulips, so to speak, as we discover just how close the coup was, and who promoted it.

Isn't it interesting how two members of the J6 committee came out on Sunday and in essence said, "Nothing to see here?" Let's figure it out. "Figure it out NOW, Phil!" (Line from Mission To Mars.)
