(94,333 posts)...the vile attacks about Feinstein's mental state have been around for over a decade. But you argue those attacks are legitimate by virtue of the duration.
For your education, I remind you that the opposition among Democrats to Sen. Feinstein has been progressive-led, regularly casting her as MIC-compromised, and adopting this vile politics about her age.
You may well want me to talk about the endless justifications in your posts for these ageist attacks, but I recognize these anon charges over the years as just progressive opposition to the senator. It's not hard to find those opponents here, just read the threads.
The ageist attacks are part and parcel of what has been a progressive push to get her out of office. Again, you may well want me to debate anonymously quoted rumors and innuendo, but I'm not taking the bait. I recognize these anonymous attacks as political opposition, plain and simple. That's the point I'm going to make here, not spending my time giving credence to gossip.
Why don't the Democrats named in the article say these things on the record?
