From speaking to various bloggers at Drinking Liberally, I learned I wasn’t the only one who reads the comments at Just One Minute, to see the deranged in their natural habitat. I hesitate to blog about them, if only from the principle that observing a behavior often changes a behavior. But some of these comments are just too over the top.

Remember, essentially all of the commenters there are the 33 percenters, meaning they support Bush. There’s also a decent number of 19 percenters, folks who still support Dick “Dead-Eye” Cheney.

So, here’s a comment I ran across that gives you a feel for the vibe of JOM. This particular commenter likes to put a header on her comments, as if they were at the top of a memo: (link)

Now that I see that Ted Wells calmly explained to Walton that he’d let the Mitchell “thing” ‘REST ON THE RECORD,’ he has just flagged Walton that, yes, LIBBY APPEALS.

So, if Walton thinks he is “rescued” by higher-ups in the Federal judicial food chain, I think he is mistaken.

I think what Walton “adds” though, to the 2008 mix, is that it’s going to be a wide-open-question again, about letting donks into the White House. Given the crap we tend to get with judicial appointments, anyway. Who would want to give Hillary free reign?

Does Walton get it? He is sitting on all those affirmative action rules that has pissed off most of mainstream America. Like Kofe Anan, from Africa. Getting into a very high job, and picking up the ladder from the ground so it doesn’t benefit blacks. It even ends career opportunism.

That’s just my opinion. And, yes, there are old people on the Supremes. Bush will also get to nominate others;

And, the angrier the public gets? The easier to “go conservative.” Or to let congress-critters hang themselves. The jury’s still out on Iraq, where they are concerned, as well.

Given that some horses only run well on solid ground, a muddy field may actually be an advantage GOP.

Let alone, how Walton has to worry that Wells gets him, coming or going.

If, like me, you decide to watch as the natives converse, tread lightly. We don’t want to scare them off.
