You spread rumors with no evidence and then hit the abuse button on me??? You’re the one who needs to back up your accusations.

I do not regularly go onto Fred threads.

You will be seeing me on immigration Fred threads because of the lead our candidate has taken, he has rightfully criticized Fred and Romney. Where were they when we needed them for the legislation that guys like Hunter had been pushing? Now, all of a sudden, they’re big on knocking out illegal immigration? Very convenient. So convenient, we should call them the 7/11 candidates.

Uh huh nice try at a low blow, thought you were better than that...

The post names no one, which is the point of the article...

But I am willing to bet it is none of our boys, it would be out by now...

[RockinRight]

POssibly, but I still think it’s Hillary/Huma Abedin.

[Kevmo]

I hit the abuse button on ya.

I don’t do it that often, if you want to check on my history. So pipe down.

[Petronski]

You’re the one engaged in abuse on this thread, with unsubstantiated rumors elevated to the level of vicious smears. This crap belongs in WAnkerville, not here.

[ejonesie22]

Interesting that...

[Petronski]

I don’t know if you are a piece of slime, but your smear in #11 sure is slimy. Is this all whatshisname can do to boost his name recognition?

Pitiful.

[ejonesie22]

Hunter has had time to concentrate on immigration, we have been busy with many more things than that as a nation the past 20 years.

[Petronski]

Hear, hear!

[Kevmo]

But I am willing to bet it is none of our boys, it would be out by now...
***That was one of the suggestions I sent to Intrade as a contract.

The last time a major media outlet tanked a story about a big time politician was Michael Issikoff’s story about Clinton and some intern. So, yeah, I agree that the most likely thing here is that the liberals are protecting one of their own. But this is LAT and they like Hollywood, and Fred has basically become a Hollywood type. The fact is, it could be Fred. And that could be the reason he’s tanking in polls and on Intrade. That’s what I’m posting, it certainly is within the realms of probability, and we’ll just have to see.

Where was Hunter when Fred was proposing fiscally responsible
legislation?

Fred was focused on fiscal issues. So what?

[ejonesie22]

Aw man, you had earned my respect too...

[arthurus]

this is a recipe for increased voter fraud.

Why do even those opposed pussyfoot about this? It is not a "recipe foe increased voter fraud." It is big glaring legitimization of voter fraud to the point that it will not really be fraud any more. It will be The Way Things Are Done. After a couple years of it will be upheld in the courts when challenged.

[Kevmo]

This is an immigration thread, so I’ll focus on immigration. Hunter’s criticism of Fred is valid. Fred’s been absent in the trenches on this issue, so he might want to choose another issue to have his followers rally around. I think it’s legitimate that Hunter would get territorial over this one.

[ejonesie22]

Come on, I still want to think you are better than that. It could be any of them and you need to say so.

The only reason Hunter escapes is he is not a big player.

[The Pack Knight]

Hey, I wrote an opinion piece on illegal immigration 15 years ago. Maybe I ought to run for President!

[ejonesie22]

It’s fine, but then do you think that Hunter, by himself with help for no other politician in the country can get it done. He is good on the subject, but if he was the only owner of the topic, it would be dead on the water.

You make a point, but there is more to it.

[Paperdoll]

Oh yeah. The rumor about a rumor! A tantalizing move to regain readers. :)

I doubt it is about Fred though. He has too much on his plate the past five years to have been involved in a scandal.

[Politicalmom]

So all the people being polled know that Fred has some big scandal, but WE don’t?

What a crock.
