You are not even able to come up with a quote from the editorial reporter that says what is being claimed, instead you spin an editorial reporter's words and present that spin as if it were Scweitzer's own words. It is extremely dishonest.

Why doesn't Brian Schweitzer just run in the Republican primary? Dude is a f*cking FAKE!!! [View all] Cali_Democrat Jan 2014 OP

I gather you don't like him. hrmjustin Jan 2014 #1

Nah Cali_Democrat Jan 2014 #3

No one has been able to provide me a quote of him making the racial comment being alleged of him Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #14

I have asked several times for a direct quote on that too ProudToBeBlueInRhody Jan 2014 #34

It is quite sad that some people are trying to present this as if it were fact Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #79

Not really a fan of his either.... ProudToBeBlueInRhody Jan 2014 #111

He said it in an interview. JTFrog Jan 2014 #38

I am still not seeing a direct quote anywhere in what you posted. Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #41

Right. JTFrog Jan 2014 #44

Actually the reporter does not even claim what people here are claiming Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #45

It didn't take a "direct quote" for me to understand the exchange. JTFrog Jan 2014 #69

If Schweitzer said something there would be a quote to prove he said it Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #74

It's the "Dean scream" and "Al Gore claimed to invent the internet" gambit. nt bananas Jan 2014 #81

I didn't spin anything. JTFrog Jan 2014 #84

If you claim someone said something they did not say it is dishonest Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #85

Why are you trying to make this so personal? JTFrog Jan 2014 #88

I am not being nasty, I am simply asking you to back up your claims Bjorn Against Jan 2014 #89

Is age descrimination a bad thing here. upaloopa Jan 2014 #7

The Constitution discriminates by age when it comes to the President. former9thward Jan 2014 #19

Your post didn't come from the Constitution. upaloopa Jan 2014 #22

I discriminate by age when voting for President. former9thward Jan 2014 #24

Well that is a better excuse. upaloopa Jan 2014 #25

Carter was 52 when he was elected. former9thward Jan 2014 #26
