    Jamie Lockett:I don’t see any conservatives throwing around words like slander when people on their side publish established falsehoods like Barrack Obama was born in Kenya or is a secret Muslim or is in league with Islamist Terrorists.

    I guess its only slander when its said by liberals…

    Wow you are totally trolling now.  I guess the fee to join isn’t enough to keep it totally away.  I would point out that conservatives criticize each other for sport and especially did for the reasons you point but of course you are not intellectually arguing a point, merely trolling.

    Nice straw man you have there, hate for something to happen to it.

    Yeah that’s not an answer just identity politics, again. I’m not checking all the boxes for you so I’m a liberal troll. I’m sadden by how narrow your world is.

    I’ve been here long enough to not be surprised by this attitude.

    What attitude?  My position was that your point hardly deserves an answer because the premise is false.  Since you have been here awhile, as have I, then try out the Need to Know podcast sometime.  Jay is never afraid to call a fellow conservative onto the carpet.

    If I have overreacted to your comment then I apologize.  I’m just tired of the “conservatives do it too” argument.  We deserve a lot of criticism at times but I wouldn’t say being in lockstep is one of them.  I don’t see how it’s possible to make the case that we don’t criticize each other enough. :-)

    Rush has answered the question.  Twitter has a group of folks, small in number (10-12), that have developed (with I believe Twitter’s help), an algorithm that retweets tweets to make it seem like thousands of people are against you.  Rush even talked about (in a recent podcast) how he provided the results of his investigation (names and addresses of these people) to the MSM, and we hear nothing but crickets – even from Fox.
