106. Do you really think we haven't seen your refrain over and over in this thread?

Tue Sep 15, 2015, 05:12 PM

Sep 2015

yes, you want to see the damn email. We get it. I suggest you go look for it. I detest unnecessary helplessness.

People like you may not yet understand, but you'll be made to understand: this little stunt just opened a gate that isn't going to be closed again. There are millions of U.S. who want nothing more than to vomit when exposed to the same old political games that have been damaging this country for so long. And for an alleged Democrat to attack Sanders in the same way a piece of shit Republican would is way, way beyond the pale.

So I don't care anything about trying to chase down documentation for you. My mind is set, and I don't give a motherfuck about trying to align my opinion with those who swim in the Koch/Adelson pond. If she wants a war, we can do that. End.
