And I'm pretty sure I don't need your permission to post links to a Dem supporting website.
As long as they are posting opinion, or supporting news articles with sources, I'm fine with them.

"Propaganda site" is the Bernie-or-Bust term for "anything not owned by Rupert Murdoch". DanTex Mar 2016 #18

No, just those owned by her super-PAC. nt revbones Mar 2016 #34

Well, no, it's actually not. But, hey, why let facts get in the way? DanTex Mar 2016 #38

Let's not forget David Brock is a Republican. berni_mccoy Mar 2016 #19

Seriously? BernieforPres2016 Mar 2016 #25

Actually, he's a Democrat, not that facts matter much in Hillary-bashing circles. DanTex Mar 2016 #30

Well, now he is. nt. revbones Mar 2016 #33

Yes. Like Bernie. DanTex Mar 2016 #35

Seems to be whatever he gets money to be. Used to hit the Clintons from the right, now he works merrily Mar 2016 #45

You mean like Bernie "I joined the party for the cash" Sanders? DanTex Mar 2016 #48

You made up a quote and falsely attributed it to Sanders to deflect from my post about Brock. merrily Mar 2016 #60

Paraphrased, but true to meaning. You know that as well as I do. DanTex Mar 2016 #62

Um, no, I don't. That's merely something else you made up to deflect from Brock. merrily Mar 2016 #63

He gave an interview where he said just that. And actually Brock didn't change for money, DanTex Mar 2016 #64

Then you should link to his actual words with context. Brock SAID what he changed for. Why should I merrily Mar 2016 #70

I have looked his words in context. He wanted the money. DanTex Mar 2016 #71

Try for a more intelligible first sentence, please. And when was Bernie a Republican again? merrily Mar 2016 #72

"I have looked his words in context." Seems like a normal sentence to me. DanTex Mar 2016 #74

Um, no, it isn't. And it's not a link, either. merrily Mar 2016 #77

How would you fix it to make it more readable then? Is it a grammar thing? DanTex Mar 2016 #79

If I knew what the hell it was supposed to mean, I could probably fix it. As it is, I don't, or merrily Mar 2016 #80

He had no money, and he had to find some people who did. Cha-ching! DanTex Mar 2016 #96

Absolutely false and not supported by the story you linked. Neither MTP nor DNC is funding him. merrily Mar 2016 #98

You think that the whole Democratic infrastructure costs nothing? LOL. DanTex Mar 2016 #99
