(26,795 posts)Making stuff up isn't calling someone out. I read bravnak's assertion and thought, "how awful". Then I read the link. It's headline suggested the same thing. But the body of the piece explained what really happened. Still awful, but I was wondering WTF is so hard about telling the unvarnished truth.
And here you are making excuses for it. Call me a purist, or whatever you want. I have a brain, like most Dems. And I'm willing to use it.
I don't need someone lying to me and claiming, "well, it's the same thing", when I call them on it. It's not the same, except for the spin.
It is the EXACT shit I go through with Foxnewser types. I don't even want Hillary running, let alone winning the nom. But liars bother me. OK? And then I come here and someone is all smug doing the same thing. In fact, bravnak wouldn't even agree to the difference, claiming the charge was "accurate".
You want to defend that? Go right ahead. And defend my foxnews addicted neighbors while you're at it, because they do the SAME thing. Nice company to keep.
