DNC Hacks Get Hacked

Share this story

WikiLeaks dumped a ton of hacked e-mails from the Democratic National Committee, and you can search for terms that tell you which donor electrocuted his horse for insurance money. Only one did this, as far as I can tell. So what? Mitt Romney probably electrocuted a horse on the roof of his car and gave it cancer, and the horse also lied about WMD in Iraq. Good riddance.

The e-mail disclosures led to the resignation of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a humorless, hectoring hack who’d be the last question in the Jeopardy! category of Unbearable Florida Politicians if it weren’t for Alan Grayson. You don’t have the time to plow through all the e-mails, so here are some excerpts I noticed. Disclosure: After many hours of reading these tedious exchanges, it’s possible I’m hallucinating and making these up. They could be fake, but as Dan Rather reminded us after he saved Brian Williams from Serbian sniper fire during Hurricane Katrina, some things are fake but accurate.
