102. If you claim that the moon is made of cheese I shouldn't have to go to the moon to prove to you that

Aug 2018

it isn't. Where is your evidence that the moon is made of cheese?

Goth has reposted the allegation, and made it numerous times himself that Sanders has claimed responsibility for Gillum's win. I cannot prove that it never happened using deductive reasoning because I don't have every single second of Sanders day and statement logs. However, its Goth making the claim. if it happened and Goth knows it happened, Goth can produce it...or hey, you can produce it, since you decided to champion this folly. I promise you, I will eat my words if I'm proven to be wrong, but I'm not going to continue to argue with people who refuse to produce the body.

Including the candidate that finished in fourth place, Jeff Greene. TexasTowelie Aug 2018 #54

That is completely insane Tiggeroshii Aug 2018 #56

You might think that it is insane, TexasTowelie Aug 2018 #58

I think it's hilarious he was still in 4th place Tiggeroshii Aug 2018 #59

If Gillum loses badly, then Bernie will be partly to blame. Since he's not a Democrat, stay out of kerry-is-my-prez Aug 2018 #61

I'm tired of Bernie screwing things up for the Dems. Why does he not become a Dem like he promised? kerry-is-my-prez Aug 2018 #64

Surely she did. That must be an oversight. n/t QC Aug 2018 #25

you don't care that the tweat you posted had nothing to do with reality and was a baseless JCanete Aug 2018 #82

Do you tire of being wrong? Gothmog Aug 2018 #90

Trust me I tire of being wrong really quickly. And when I recognize that I'm wrong, JCanete Aug 2018 #92

again, I don't know why you don't understand this and its starting to make me a little worried, but JCanete Aug 2018 #97

I am also very worried about people who believe in magic and magical voter revolutions Gothmog Aug 2018 #98
