Quite a mix...

Oh, but that is fake "lamestream media" news, right?

Good dig, but the scary part, or maybe the saving grace, is the diversity of the list.  Move any direction, and part of the list goes into Battle Stations mode.  Sit in the middle, and the votes aren't there, but the rage builds even further.  The Repeal Now crowd is getting some traction, based solely on embarrassment over repudiating earlier votes, but it's unclear that this is enough to trigger action.

So far, it's a comedy with tragic potential.
