45. What are the odds, indeed?

And note how the poster responds by trying to pretend that it's difficult to check and expose the utter falseness of the attempted smear, as though it were necessary to call up each edit separately.

All you have to do is click on the edits, click "show all" to show them all in order, and glance down the page. Links are in bright blue. You can easily see where the two links were added (not until near the end, at the bottom), and you can easily see that any claim of a "right-wing" link being added and then removed is utterly false.

Imagine that.

I agreed, but the fact that it kicked the thread and gave it some visibility made it where.... moriah Sep 2014 #25

I think that's often true, but is not a universal distantearlywarning Sep 2014 #22

I know enough to not know enough. Well said. randome Sep 2014 #24

Yeah, the whole sanctimoniousness from people who've never been abused pisses me off. moriah Sep 2014 #27

It only took 4 months of marriage before my sister got hit. moriah Sep 2014 #36

She was a beautiful woman, much lovelier a woman than he was a man. merrily Sep 2014 #38
