In reply to the discussion: In 2006, Bernie Sanders Voted In Support Of An Immigration Conspiracy Theory [View all]joshcryer
(62,297 posts)143. Flat out lie.
I didn't say it was a good thing. You are putting words in my post.
I said the vote was not an enabling vote. That Bush was going in anyway.
Next time you want to accuse me of some bullshit falsehoods, please be brave enough to reply directly to me rather than someone else. Talk about snickering.
