Of course, he is correct, but what will be done? Nothing!

They all know psy ops work. Why aren't wealthe dems buying up media outlets en masse?

Maybe some of the Repubs who quit - like Corker, Flake and Kay Bailey Hutchison. And is there anybody both sides trust living today?

Only this one was on my thread from over a year ago. One of the other current MIRTers said that the subject of this off-topic diatribe is in jail here in the U.S. awaiting trial. It's up to EarlG whether we can remove it, alerting for Spam likely wouldn't work.

I suspect someone is getting paid to create this "viral" web information and someone else is wasting their money.

This reads like a run on sentence, difficult to read and frankly, it gives me a headache.
