To be fair, the newsmax article she cited (I think written by a Duncan Hunter supporter, or maybe Tancredo), contained only the sentence she quoted. It was a secondary source, and I the reporter got it wrong, I think on purpose

Oh, I know... I'm just pointing out that she knows better, having trolled anti-Fred lines for some time to try and make Guiliani look less like the flaming liberal that he is, and that using a knowingly flawed source is no better than lying herself.

I do find it hard to argue a poster so involved in the discussions could possibly not know about the actual quote.

But unless we adopt a rule forbidding newsmax articles, I’d hate to see us trashing a rudy supporter for THAT, when there is other more substantive things we can use to refute the arguments made.

I try very hard to go back to primary sources when getting what a candidate says. Not because I’m perfect, but because I hate getting called a liar for believing what someone else wrote.
