Can you offer a 100% guarantee that there are no socialist journalism majors sitting at a keyboard in DNC HQ, whose sole task is to issue the official Party line? To sit there and deliberately see how many people he can provoke into an ill considered remark? Even here, where conservatives think they are among friends?

Back in the late '60s, there were any number of student political groups, dozens of them, each peddling their own brand of leftist nonsense. The one thing they all had in common was, if there were more than 6, one of them was a police snitch.

I'm a "Comments" addict. I'll skim an article for the gist of the story, and then concentrate on what the proles are saying. I'm interested in trends.

One thing that I've noticed is an increase in commenters, across the Web, who troll with the "Inner Party" meme. It may sound like tinfoil nonsense, however, I've seen a good many ham handed attempts, lately, to manipulate the narrative toward an Obama approved lie.

I suspect a SEIU employed Journalism grad with a list of PC noms de plume and a quota of steering comments. One 'tell' you see is that, unlike most others, an Obama troll seldom gets confused about the "to, too, two" usage mistake. People who do not, as a rule, comment, make this error consistently.

Why should FR be immune? I'd bet on the LEO "Thin Blue Line" types as actually being Alinski True Believers, based on their conviction that conservatives are too narrowly law abiding to question a cop's motives.

The same with our new crop of public health experts. For every 10 one-day old posters who get zotted out of the saddle within the hour, how many lurkers have slowly built up what in spy novels is called a "legend", and pump the DNC fictions?

It's a cruel world, and sometimes you are left with only your own opinions to protect you.
