@ByronYork Naive, I know. Because easing/solving the crisis is not in the interest of either party. -
@ron_fournier@ByronYork the "rumors" only work because it was true of obamas policies and how he's handling this. -
@capdc@ByronYork "rumors" work because criminals spreading them profit from fleeing victims. You expect coyotes to fairly explain GOP law? -
@ron_fournier@capdc@ByronYork The "rumors" work because of the truth they contain. To come here is to stay here. The coyotes need not lie.
