Nance Greggs: There IS a Difference



There is a difference between questioning your opponent’s record, and questioning his citizenship.

There is a difference between presenting the facts of your opponent’s tenure in office, and presenting totally fabricated bullshit as fact.

There is such a level of contempt in this campaign. It assumes we are all so stupid that lies will work ... that we "people" don't have the right to know where a candidate is coming from. That a pair of good-looking liars with pretty wives will take control and clean out the rest of the treasury.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
