Hartmann busts Hill Shills using right wing tactics calling into his show re "whore" remark....

They are calling in using the same phone number but saying they are from different parts of the country.
All are calling to discuss that horrible comment.
(Which both Paul and the Bernie campaign has apologized for.)

The same tactic was used in 2004 by repugs calling in to talk shows to bash Kerry's purple heart.

So sad, isn't it?

I wonder if Hillary and the RW use the same contractor to call in so they don't have time to call in as RWers.

Sometimes I wonder if Rove himself is working for her. It would certainly explain a lot.

to my husband and he always says "it's probably Republicans $shit stirring" - it is getting hard to tell the difference...

You could spot them a mile off, and they usually got the boot within minutes (though some have managed to stick around for twelve years or more).

Now, it's all "free stuff" here and "damn hippies" there. Sometimes it's like Pat Buchanan's dad has signed up.

I hope it's just Republicans trolling us, and they could get away with it now, since disruptors now have the free run of the place, but sadly I think a lot of conservatives have made their home in our party. That's one of the worst things about the GOP's descent into madness--it's made a lot of conservatives falsely imagine themselves to be liberals simply because they aren't raging bigots and science deniers.

Time to stop the sugar coating and call a moose a moose (sorry, not trying to insult moose).
