I notice you didn't answer, Such as? The question is not whether Putin wants to compromise someone. It's what someone does in exchange.

You're still using the same bogus approach to accusation that makes Dems (and you) vulnerable to Fleischer's attack.

Are you are saying that had these unnamed Democrats waited for more details before calling collusion then Fleischer types would be silent?

I'm saying RIGHT NOW you're qualifying yourself for Fleischer's attack bc you've divorced actions from your judgement of morality.

So is that a “no”? Fleischer isn’t just spouting off prematurely, he’s seeding disinformation AFTER the facts are in.

Except you're still doing what he can rightly attack Dems for. Try stopping first, and THEN complaining.

If every stupid thing this or that Democrat says suddenly means we can’t call out BS for fear of hypocrisy, we might as well pack it in.

Sure. But if YOU continue to exhibit the problem then maybe you should pack in your pique?
