121. You have made a vile accusation against DUers.

Jan 2014

You stated that DUers are collaborating with Fox by REPEATING their talking points. Now either back it up or apoligize.

Who are these DUers who deliberately went to Fox saw their talking points and then repeated them here. And don't even try to deflect from that question. DU is sick to death of this kind of deception. Either provide your proof or do not respond to me. I don't deal in deception.
