McClintock claimed that Burton is supporting him.
Burton didn't like that Tom lied about his support and came out, making a statement, that not only he didn't support McC, but he urged him to drop out of the race, and he relayed more of the conversation. Burton only spoke out, to correct McC's incorrect statement.
The truth hurts.
You realize you are defending the LA Times, and calling Tom a liar.
Why are you on a conservative website at all?
