Back to the old idea of the GOP that government should control the lives of everyone.
You know… morons.
I see you’ve been with us for more than a year, DingoelGringo, so please forgive me for taking so long to welcome you to the SDMB.
That said, if you’re going to comment on EVERY post in the thread, you’d really better step up the pace.
Mississippi Republican Senate candidate Chris McDaniel is still challenging the results of the primary, which incumbent Thad Cochran won (which McDaniel refuses to accept). McDaniel’s lawyer, Mitch Tyner, produced a list of primary voters whose votes they are challenging. Among the names on the list are Tyner and his wife.
NRCC Launches Fake News Sites to Attack Democratic Candidates.
What makes this not only dishonest but stupid is that this is the same NRCC that got caught earlier this year putting up fake websites purporting to be those of Dem candidates (they had to take them down because of public reaction).
