20. yes, they retracted the story

Thu Oct 10, 2013, 11:01 AM

Oct 2013

they best disclose the identity of the other "T.M."
which is more than fishy enough. Why would they disguise the full name of someone?
potential dead person mafia hit?
holy cow.
26.6k in contributions?
That outfit better buy a policy on T.M.'s political career.
He is done.
but his potential influence over electoral votes in 2016 as gov. would never cause a story to hit the trash bin...
