I just assume all posted memes are fake, unless accompanied by a source. Saves a lot of time. :-) n/t thesquanderer May 6 #20

I don't assume they're *all* fake, but I assume a lot of them are, and it's getting hard to tell which ones are which. ShazzieB May 6 #65

Where in the rules around here is it a responsibility to provide a link? Liberal In Texas May 6 #21

Not a rule, more a matter of courtesy and consideration. TheRickles May 6 #24

So, it's not a "responsibility." Liberal In Texas May 6 #25

My pleasure Cirsium May 6 #61

So you're saying Hannity is lying about Rump's offer and just made up the bribe himself? Seriously? LymphocyteLover May 6 #67

Seriously Cirsium Thursday #72

Hannity is a well-known liar and propagandist., Nonetheless, this is not the type of thing I see him making up LymphocyteLover Thursday #78

obviously there's a lot going on but the POTUS offering a bribe to a Senator to switch parties seems significant LymphocyteLover May 6 #68

Sure Cirsium Thursday #70
