ALERTER'S COMMENTS

The post title speaks for itself.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Wed Jan 13, 2016, 09:50 AM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Ask a silly question, get a silly answer.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: It's just an inapt and clumsy take-off on an old standard reply to a loaded question.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Actually, the question is a classic example of how some inquiries are loaded and already presume guilt.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: OFFS. It's a well known phrase. I'm not sure it applies in this case, but still. Alerter: you need a much, much thicker skin to successfully participate on a political discussion board.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: A known phrase with no correct answer.....I understand the use of the phrase.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: that term really needs to be retired. I hate to do this but will have to vote to hide...
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Was this supposed to be biting satire? I don't see it.

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

The media is responsible for that narrative. You never heard that from anyone in Hillary's campaign. Alfresco Jan 2016 #38
