I'm used to you being severely wrong, but this one is special.

Obviously not true, since Paul Booth is on it from AFSCME. YouDig Jun 2016 #2
As was said in the article, he was the only one allowed Matt_in_STL Jun 2016 #3
Why would the OP change the headline to make it untrue? YouDig Jun 2016 #4
I have an awesome idea. Two, actually. Matt_in_STL Jun 2016 #6
Good idea. Maybe the OP will reply to me about the untrue headline. YouDig Jun 2016 #7

So you can't even bring yourself to compare two headlines and see if they are the same? YouDig Jun 2016 #19

Is that your way of saying "I was wrong"? YouDig Jun 2016 #23

Yes it is true, read it again Tom Rinaldo Jun 2016 #8
You're right! A technicality! That's so Berner, hanging on a technicality. YouDig Jun 2016 #9
You claim the headline is wrong, I point out that it is correct Tom Rinaldo Jun 2016 #11
And you're right. Blatantly misleading, not technically wrong. YouDig Jun 2016 #13
Perhaps you should read the article before commenting on it. imagine2015 Jun 2016 #20
But not the platform committee. Important detail there. YouDig Jun 2016 #22
You're mistaken. Paul Booth in not on the platform drafting committee. Didn't you read the article? imagine2015 Jun 2016 #16
They'd almost certainly clash with the lobbyists the DNC has appointed to the committee. AtomicKitten Jun 2016 #5
Why does the DNC hate labor? B Calm Jun 2016 #10
Lobbyists can be on committees, but only 1 union leader allowed. This is Hillary's Democratic Party. highprincipleswork Jun 2016 #12
And people get their fifis hurt when I point the nature of the party these days nadinbrzezinski Jun 2016 #15
What they rejected was some of Sanders hand-picked endorsers, not a blanket ban on "union reps" Tarc Jun 2016 #24

Sanders is lying LoverOfLiberty Jun 2016 #27
I'll take his word over yours. Jester Messiah Jun 2016 #28
