You, old dog, mentioned the headline. I didn't write that, take it up with Huffington. Christ.

Ha ha ha, oh, please stop!

please consider the amount of stupid in the comments above when you enter the voting booth.

As opposed to the President's rush to judgement with regard to gun laws.

So, a lot of people, asked in the dawn of the immediate aftermath of a horrific event, of which they did not know all the facts, speculated that a shooting at a church might have something to do with religion. Later, when it was reported with reliable sources that the shooter's motivation was to shoot blacks, everyone knew what sort of evil had reared its head. But of course you would have immediately known because of your sage, prescient nature, and of course with a lot of help from the media who never hesitate to jump to conclusions, which this time happened to be correct.

I'm not here to dissect your every phrase, but when you say something and then deny having said it, do you really think no one will notice? It's not like you're the President.
