69. Sorry, your attempt at constructing a "straw man interrogation" won't work.

I've no desire to know your habits.

See, I don't give a shit what you read. I don't care what you watch. I don't care what you have on your little bookshelf.

But if you are suggesting that we should ignore what you say here, because it might be inconvenient to your current argument, you'd best think again. I'm not the ardent, angry, persistent RT cheerleader on this board--you are. I'm not the person who insisted that the Ukraine was being "pressured" to join the EU--YOU are. You wrote that stuff. You OWN it.

If you think your very biased statements don't have an impact on how people regard you, you're living in a curious fantasy. You aren't proved "right"--you're shown to be what you are, by your very own words.

I do know that Skinner, the administrator of this site, has said that RT, that propaganda station you tout from the rooftops, is not a valid source for LBN.

So, "LOL" all you'd like. You're easily amused.

I know that Putin isn't a commie, so your premise is a lame attempt and false. MADem Mar 2014 #54

Is he the enemy? sabrina 1 Mar 2014 #57

No "work" involved at all. Not even a bit. Some posters have a lot to say about certain topics. MADem Mar 2014 #61

'Commie' a reference to 'enemy' not to his politics, ideology. But carry on. I'm having fun. sabrina 1 Mar 2014 #65

But you found the "commie" accusers--so you say--and I don't see you naming those names, now! MADem Mar 2014 #51

You tossed the smear out there. If you don't want to back it up, you shouldn't make it. n/t winter is coming Mar 2014 #44

It's not a smear, it's an observation. nt MADem Mar 2014 #48

No, it's a smear. If it were something you actually observed, you would provide a link sabrina 1 Mar 2014 #50

Well, I've provided a number of links. MADem Mar 2014 #52

No, you intended to smear good Democratic DUers imo, and with nothing to back up your claims sabrina 1 Mar 2014 #53
