Attacking a good man with garbage!!
Would you suggest a way that such information should have been posted? It seems that if Thompson DID contribute to Hillary, that would be important info to share with the forum. If OpenSecrets.org made a mistake (which is evidently the case), then bringing it to the attention of the FR community is also a good thing, IMHO. And FairOpinion did say, "I don't vouch for the accuracy, but I understand the contributions are public record and this is where Open Secrets collects the info." with a link to the source, and also added, "Can someone research and confirm or refute this?"
It seems FairOpinion also asked for it to be pulled after subsequent research showed it to be faulty...?
So...what approach should an honest, conservative FReeper use in such a case, if not what FairOpinion did? (BTW, perhaps you're commenting on FairOpinion's other posts, but I took it as in reference to this thread that you called troll.)
