Do you have a link to the "well-deserved backlash"? N/T lapucelle Aug 2018 #5

Can't really link to the entire internet wonkwest Aug 2018 #8

Does that mean that I'm selectively not seeing the link you provided? lapucelle Aug 2018 #21

Feigned ignorance is the least of arguments wonkwest Aug 2018 #25

I don't do pretend either. That's why I asked for actual links to apocryphal backlash. N/T lapucelle Aug 2018 #30

If you need links to form thoughts wonkwest Aug 2018 #38
