From: "Gary Britt" 

So what you are saying is that when an empire builder adds an extremely
miniscule almost unnoticeable addition to his empire that everyone begins
running around flailing their arms and legs about and decrying the
impending end of the entire organization as you now know it?  That's how
the left is acting and why its accurately described as a descent by the
left into a fever swamp.  They've got the fever induced delusions down pat
already.
