Dec 2016

I think two can play that game. Now is not the time for proof beyond a doubt; it's political warfare now, so the gloves are off!
Solid evidence, schmolid evidence! Whatever makes the repigs look like traitors is fair game because they've been doing it to us for decades.

You may have misunderstood, i am agreeing with you... dionysus Dec 2016 #64
