Actions speak louder than words. And your support of Hillary over Bernie shows that your words are worthless.

And your comment shows that you're an irredeemable asshole.

As my self imposed cease fire is still in effect I will respond only by saying that I can not return the complement at this time.

Thankfully. Acceptance from undignified lout like you is something I neither seek, expect, nor want.

I am pleased that we have been able to reach an understanding.

You don't have to make comments like that to verify your stupidity. You have already cemented your role and function here as the village idiot.

It's popular and low cost to posture by introducing a bill no one will pass, but it's not as low cost as tweeting, and tweeting doesn't waste any time on the floor that should be used doing real work.

What I said was 100% true and you know it.

That's why you are trying to divert attention away from it by lashing out at me with your nasty personal insults.

It's also an effective way to feed the media frenzy without ever going in front of them or answering questions. Would his EO's be launched on Twitter too?

No, it's not true.
I explained myself several times.

I liked them both for different reasons and was willing to support who ever won the primary.

Because the truth doesn't conform to your preconceived idea of who I supported is a good enough reason to call your comment stupid.

Your own words here is the clear evidence of your role and function of village idiot.
