Oh, okay, I've read "Blinded by the Right." betsuni Apr 2016 #7

Right. He switched sides before he wrote that book. n/t pnwmom Apr 2016 #15

I'm still on the fence about him character-wise, but... moriah Apr 2016 #21

Remember the McMartin Preschool trial? ucrdem Apr 2016 #5

It goes all the way back to the Salem witch trials. pnwmom Apr 2016 #6

The idea that a widely-publicized outreach initiative would launch a porn attack on FB is so inane ucrdem Apr 2016 #24

Yeah, ok. "Facebook hasn't confirmed King's assertion, nilram Apr 2016 #8

What possible interest would the Sanders campaign have in discounting the rumors pnwmom Apr 2016 #9

I look forward to Facebook's statement. nilram Apr 2016 #11

What possible insight would the Sanders campaign have in making this determination? frylock Apr 2016 #27

I see people here appeal to Sanders veracity all the time. And use it to support pnwmom Apr 2016 #30

On topics of which he is knowlegable. frylock Apr 2016 #32

yet strangley no Hillary groups were closed down and we haven't heard anything about these 'other' azurnoir Apr 2016 #10

And how do you know that? Just because they didn't rise up in hysterical fury? n/t pnwmom Apr 2016 #12

Then what other groups were shut down? why aren't they being named azurnoir Apr 2016 #13

Aiden King of the Sanders campaign says it affected other groups. Are you calling him a liar? pnwmom Apr 2016 #14

why are you deflecting? King is a sub-reddit moderator nothing more who has raised money for Sanders azurnoir Apr 2016 #16

I'm not deflecting, you are. There is no evidence that Sanders groups were singled out. pnwmom Apr 2016 #17

there's no evidence of any other group being shut down save the word of of a sub reddit moderator azurnoir Apr 2016 #18

He's a lot more than that. pnwmom Apr 2016 #19

ya he raised money for Sanders I already said but he's not a campaign official azurnoir Apr 2016 #20

Snopes disagrees with you. I'll accept Snopes's opinion on that. pnwmom Apr 2016 #22

And you keep circling back to Aiden King's statement. frylock Apr 2016 #28

I don't know. But I accept that he represents Sanders and the campaign believes that to be true. pnwmom Apr 2016 #29

So see no reason to believe otherwise despite the screenshots.. frylock Apr 2016 #31

I guess Brock's magical $1 million can even buy off Snopes! ContinentalOp Apr 2016 #23
