No one has to care about lazy words lacking substance of corroboration.

Like your idiotic and ridiculous lie that Clinton supported the public option and Obama didn't. You never even attempted to back that up. Yet somehow I have to entertain your deliberate attempts to waste my time by demanding news articles from 16 years ago that you already intend to dismiss without reading.

Who do you think you're replying to? Do you observe commenter names?

I'm just calling out lazy unwillingness around here to link to corroborating sources (easy & common sense for settling an argument) to instead sling words like petty, incompetent bitches. I don't think I'm alone in not recalling the exact nuances of healthcare proposals candidates had in 2008.

Oh, sorry. I thought you were the initial liar, not a toady for the initial liar. You want sources from me but not them. Convenient.
