12. The outburst from David Corn was a thing of beauty.

He nearly left his seat when the Republican (sorry I don't have his name) said all Dems should go to the inauguaration and get over the fact that Donald will be president and we need to accept it.
Corn forcefully reminded him that Donald and the entire Republican party questioned Obama's citizenship and legitimacy for over 5 years with Donald leading the charge.
He said this request by the republicans was nothing but hipocrisy.
The republican meekly backed off and said he didn't do that.

All other dems should take a lesson from Corn on how to respond when this subject comes up - as it will.
