I don't fault Prosense for posting links to relevant information.

What Prosense has been criticized for his simple misdirection, posting links to lengthy articles and posts that are completely irrelevant to the subject being discussed-- and almost always to her own threads. Nice way to up your search engine footprint, but I can see no other reason for doing so besides a desire to derail discussion.

and thats relevant in this thread how? SwampG8r Jul 2014 #39

Ok for you I will self delete it. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #44

thank you SwampG8r Jul 2014 #52

Prosense is likely on vacation. I love her too and unfortunately she gets insulted. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #54

I know how she feels on that last part, btw. AverageJoe90 Jul 2014 #118

Agreed. She is a stand up member and the way they treat her is horrible. hrmjustin Jul 2014 #120

"Ideals"? like supporting Democratic principles? Is that your sly way of saying you think Cha Jul 2014 #40

one post was already taken down on this thread for suggesting she was a plant bigtree Jul 2014 #78

I saw that poster and didn't read it.. I knew it would be ugly.. and sure enough Cha Jul 2014 #79

Perfect! HERVEPA Jul 2014 #21

There are some really shitty comments in this thread. William769 Jul 2014 #14

The funniest knock some did on her was "the links". Factual backup became something to criticize stevenleser Jul 2014 #17

Agreed. William769 Jul 2014 #20

Links to her own posts do not equal facts... truebrit71 Jul 2014 #24

Those were links to her own previous posts that had external backup in them. Nice try. stevenleser Jul 2014 #45

Self-referential? Me? nt Dreamer Tatum Jul 2014 #56

No, sorry. Marr Jul 2014 #58

You should be sorry. You object to being proven wrong with factual links. stevenleser Jul 2014 #71

I can only assume that you don't actually read Prosense's links. Marr Jul 2014 #109

Nice try? tkmorris Jul 2014 #65

Just because you don't do that, doesn't mean others don't. What she did was entirely valid. stevenleser Jul 2014 #70

That's not what anyone is talking about and you know it tkmorris Jul 2014 #89

Since I started the thread, I can absolutely say that yes, that is what is being talked about. nt stevenleser Jul 2014 #90

Nope. They mostly just went around and around and around... truebrit71 Jul 2014 #76

Yes, my favorite was when she got called LondonReign2 Jul 2014 #136

Yep. She lives in a lot of heads around here. sufrommich Jul 2014 #41

The gop does that.. takes the Democrats' strengths and tries to turn it into something ugly. Cha Jul 2014 #49

because much- perhaps most- of the time, it wasn't factual back up. cali Jul 2014 #101

Just a thought. Campaigns are hard work and JaneyVee Jul 2014 #68

Did I miss something? I thought she was vociferously against Hillary. Metric System Jul 2014 #119
