86. While I don't think this particular reaction proves anything...

...one way or the other about an Anonymous hack, I agree with you that strident reactions can be clues. In this case, however, I'm not sure I buy that Kos' strident reaction is a clue. On the other hand, Rove's reaction was definitely a clue.

I do find it puzzling that, even though we know conspiracies occur in politics and they have done so for all of recorded history, we are still supposed to believe they don't happen in OUR country in OUR time. And if any of us dare to posit a conspiracy, even when there is evidence in that direction, we are shouted down or dismissed.

I find it even more puzzling that this kneejerk reaction kicks in among liberals almost instantly -- even though the actual conspiracies have often been against us (Lee Atwater, anyone? Iran-Contra? Watergate? etc.) It looks to me like another case of liberals running from anything that might get them criticized by the right as nutcases. Which when you think about it is ridiculous, since being called a nutcase by the most demonstrably nutty groups out there ought to be a badge of honor...

Furthermore, the striking similarities between Rove's behavior now and in 2004, including the timeline, deserve comment. There should be at least a few weeks after an election, while we are discussing what happened, when we are allowed to point out such things without being shouted down.

We want to keep this fiction that ours is a country where power is transferred peacefully, in spite of all evidence to the contrary. Guess what folks? Politics is a blood sport and it has been since time immemorial. The more we try and hide from that fact, the more we will be victimized by those who do not shy away from employing nefarious means, whether vote rigging or worse.
