I mentioned that and was told - and I quote - "it doesn't matter who hacked them -- they were written" - by one of the dimmest of my online acquaintances, followed by another dimwit chiming in with "Of course, the purveyors of this far-fetched Russian-Trump conspiracy theory are just trying to distract from the fact of inexcusable ugliness of their own actions. What the hell difference does it make if the Russians did the hacking? The Russians didn't WRITE those e-mails or create the cynical ruthlessness behind them."
