But you knew that.

You can keep spinning, Janey, but you can't run away from Hillary's record on the Iraq war and equal rights.

Or, you could do more research and find they have strong positions against police violence, against villager Aug 2015 #2

You're seriously defending Rand Paul....? MADem Aug 2015 #6

You don't know how to respond to anything actually posted, do you? villager Aug 2015 #7

You're seriously defending Rand Paul? MADem Aug 2015 #23

You're seriously avoiding the point. Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #51

I asked the question. Haven't gotten an answer. I can only conclude that the answer is MADem Aug 2015 #53

That poster should be a Hillary adviser daybranch Aug 2015 #75

Who's "avoiding issues?" Go back and read the OP, and ask yourself why you're MADem Aug 2015 #110

You are avoiding issues. I'm quite 840high Aug 2015 #127

The only time you ever speak to me, you are making some sort of accusation, just like that one. MADem Aug 2015 #136

Correct. I find we are politically worlds apart. 840high Aug 2015 #144

That's nice. nt MADem Aug 2015 #145

Actually you're excellent at being right on point.. thank you. Cha Aug 2015 #134

Anytime! MADem Aug 2015 #135

No problem. they can't debate you so they insult you.. kinda like this other OP Cha Aug 2015 #137

That OP speaks the absolute truth. MADem Aug 2015 #138

Of course they're sneaky enough to do that.. It's called "ratfucking" but so sad for them. Cha Aug 2015 #139

Speaking of "ratfucking" why did you rec these threads, cha?: beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #141

You don't really know what the term "ratfucking" VanillaRhapsody Aug 2015 #148

Yes indeed: "when you lie down with pigs" kfreed Oct 2015 #154

Or you use Bernie to attack Democrats if you're not an actual supporter kfreed Oct 2015 #153

Are you FOR white supremacy? kfreed Oct 2015 #152

Goodman is a BAAAAD reference!! Unless one wants to make an "association," that is. MADem Aug 2015 #3

Somebody sounds a little tired of defending the indefensible Android3.14 Aug 2015 #4

That's why none of them ever discuss, and why their tactics are increasingly indistinguishable villager Aug 2015 #5

Yeah, like the Rand Paul supporter who wrote the laudatory article, mentioned in the OP...?? MADem Aug 2015 #25

How about the Hillary supporter who linked to Stormfront: beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #114

This isn't "Who Wore It Best" you know....! MADem Aug 2015 #116

Wait, didn't you bring up questionable behaviour by supporters first? beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #117

You think Mr. Goodman is a Sanders supporter? He's the supporter at issue, here. MADem Aug 2015 #118

No, I'm calling out hypocrisy. beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #121

No, you're not. The objection here is to Mr. Goodman. In response, you're calling out DUers. nt MADem Aug 2015 #123

Guns kill 33,000 people per year. JaneyVee Aug 2015 #11

And yet one little war can kill so many more! artislife Aug 2015 #22

Do the math. That's 33,000 per year, and counting. JaneyVee Aug 2015 #24

How sad that that's all you got. H. Clinton turned on Democrats and gave her support to George Bush rhett o rick Aug 2015 #130

A million innocent Iraqis were killed kfreed Oct 2015 #155

Blaming Ralph Nader for the loss of life in Iraq is way absurd. That's taking rhett o rick Oct 2015 #157

Nothing ceases to amaze me around here anymore.... BooScout Aug 2015 #16

Amazing that the one "hide" threw in an opinion on the topic, too....neutral? Nah! George II Aug 2015 #17

Hmmmm. Ain't that peculiar...not! MADem Aug 2015 #19

That was a terrible rationale for a hide vote. Not liking a post is not a reason to hide folks. TheKentuckian Aug 2015 #119

Were that the case I'd be voting HIDE on most every jury I get! MADem Aug 2015 #122

I'm agreeing for once, I responded to your post to echo it. TheKentuckian Aug 2015 #150

You should send this to the admins. zappaman Aug 2015 #31

Very weird. And very strange. artislife Aug 2015 #34

HC supporters linking to rw websites and posting articles from banned disruptors: beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #85

That one has a link to a well known republican site which is at the least is a hidable offense. L0oniX Aug 2015 #104

Yep and they doubled down when called on it. beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #107

The admins should do something about that one. My bet is that they won't. L0oniX Aug 2015 #108

Who is "that one?" MADem Aug 2015 #120

Maybe you should check the link before making demands. beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #124

No--the collars and cuffs aren't matching, here. MADem Aug 2015 #125

I posted two links, if they're not to your posts move on. beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #126

You can't answer my question--it wasn't directed at you, yet you inserted yourself in the subthread. MADem Aug 2015 #143

Check the TOS. nt MADem Aug 2015 #45

What about the Terms of Service? Fearless Aug 2015 #47

The salient excerpt is at post 43. A full read of the TOS is always a good idea, every so often. nt MADem Aug 2015 #52

lame Ed Suspicious Aug 2015 #74

The TOS is lame, huh? I don't think so. nt MADem Aug 2015 #82

I know the Terms of Service well Fearless Aug 2015 #140

I am applying them to those who would use Mr. "I Support Rand Paul" Goodman as a source, here. MADem Aug 2015 #142

Hillary is a weak opponent. Fearless Aug 2015 #146

No, it's a TOS violation to use wingnutty sources here at DU. nt MADem Aug 2015 #147

That was a pretty stupid thing to post Motown_Johnny Aug 2015 #46

DU has literally zero influence on Bernie's campaign. cyberswede Aug 2015 #50

But people who support Rand Paul 2016 apparently do! nt MADem Aug 2015 #56

Huh? cyberswede Aug 2015 #61

Read the OP. Click on the links. That's what this thread is about. nt MADem Aug 2015 #69

I read the OP. I even quoted it. cyberswede Aug 2015 #89

It does matter what a Paulbot fronting like he cares about Sanders posts in HUFFPO, though. nt MADem Aug 2015 #90

And Hillary supporters on DU link to rw websites and post articles from banned disruptors. beam me up scottie Aug 2015 #88

You should start an OP on that topic! MADem Aug 2015 #91

H. A. Goodman may be a Rand Paul supporter passiveporcupine Aug 2015 #58

No--he wants the race to be Sanders v. Paul, because he thinks Paul can win against Sanders. MADem Aug 2015 #70

I'm not defending Goodman here passiveporcupine Aug 2015 #72

Goodman is a "liberal Dem" who supports Rand Paul for the Presidency. He wrote an article declaring MADem Aug 2015 #81

Why are you addressing this to me? passiveporcupine Aug 2015 #83

The OP says "Memo to Bernie Supporters" and it references this post.... MADem Aug 2015 #87

Sorry, I didn't realize I was referring to the LINK to the Goodman article passiveporcupine Aug 2015 #92

Well, that would perhaps suggest that Goodman (who is the subject of the thread) is a plagiarist, MADem Aug 2015 #94

But you are okay with Rand Paul when he attacks Bernie, right? bluedigger Aug 2015 #60
