And maybe next time they will read the fine print.

And maybe next time they will read the fine print.

The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

You mean... somebody trustworthy who's running for office?
Are you actually defending the deceptive way this donation form was set up?
I do think there are trustworthy people running for office. You may not have noticed if you only vote for Republicans.

So reading Shuny's article, the prechecked boxes in question were not hidden in the least. I agree they should not have been prechecked, but it wasn't like it was hidden in the fine print. This is what they looked like:

and later:

Pretty hard to miss. Unless you are color blind like Cow Poke (The boxes are YELLOW, cp)Last edited by Sparko; 04-07-2021, 11:24 AM.

I have yet to see you denounce that fund-raising tactic used by Trump and now being used by other GOP candidates.
In terms of honest candidates, Obama is at the top of the list. And my trust was vindicated in that he had a remarkably scandal-free administration.
