To Coin a Phrase ...

... the stupid, it burns.

In today's installment, some of Hillary's completely reasonable (Motto: Yes we are, too!!!) fans are upset because, during Hillary's concession speech today, Obama was apparently playing golf with his wife.

To coin another phrase, I am not making this up.

Here's an excerpt:

OBAMA GOLFS DURING HILLARY’S SPEECH TO SUSPEND!

[...]

Show your power and stay in Hillary’s Camp.Do not move anywhere.We do not owe anyone anything.Not the DNC who is only worried about Money.Not Obama who has bought the superdelegate votes so he and Michelle can golf today during this great day in History.On the day of Hillary’s speech.

No, I don't have any idea why they don't use spaces after their periods on that site, either.

Oh, wait. I said periods. Sorry for my blatant sexism.

The capacity of some of these people to become outraged over everything remotely connected to Obama is just jaw-dropping. Had he not found some place to lay low while Clinton was speaking, you just know the same people would have been furiously typing, "Obama hogs media spotlight!!! Won't even show respect to Hillary while she's speaking on this great day in History!!!"

Next question: How long until one of those completely reasonable people comes over here to scream, "It wasn't a concession speech!!! She only suspended her campaign!!! She conceded nothing!!!"

The good news is, there's no need to worry about how these people claim they're going to vote come November. At the rate they're going, I predict an early summer epidemic of aneurysms.
