Fasten Your Seat Belts

The shrieking harpies are about to go berserk. Scooter was denied his request to stay out of jail on appeal.

I hear there is going to be a candlelight vigil at the Lincoln memorial led by David Broder and Mary Matalin tonight. Tony Blankley is talking about a hunger strike (some think it's just a way to motivate himself for his latest diet) and Sean Hannity is going to make a pilgrimage to Selma and spray himself with a garden hose in solidarity with his brother Scooter. (Ann Coulter is also scheduled to hang Hillary in effigy down in South Beach but that was planned well before the Scooter verdict.)

The rest of the DC insiders are planning to fan out onto TV later today to emit primal screams and flagellate themselves, after which they will gather in various secret locations to drink martinis and pray.

They shall overcome.
