how to delete extraneous line in tags section ~ resolved

[The Mad Swede]

Curious how to delete the extraneous line cutting off the tops of words in the tags section of all blog posts.
It was not present before this morning.

Nothing seems out of the ordinary in the source code. I deactivated plugins but nothing changed.
I restored earlier post versions but it does not go away.

Attached find a screenshot. The line is slicing through the tags "digestion, EFAs."
Each word below it is fine.

Suffusion v4.2;
Minima theme;
WordPress v3.3.2;

Thank you for your assistance.

Thank you for the reply.
Sorry I missed the previous entry.

I need your help determining what I botched.

Please find sandwiched below the code I replaced [in bold] in cpanel >>wp-content/themes/suffusion/custom/pullout.php:
Please see my blog to note the missing tags section >>http://thewholisticedge.com/the-mad-swede/ or the attached screenshot.
