She meant to harm Fred Thompson by asserting that he was trying to get McCain elected, thereby suggesting he was a fraud and a liar, and hoping to scare people who weren't scared enough of Hillary to vote for Rudy because they were afraid of John McCain.

The theory as been posted by a few others on the forum. I have seen it 3 or 4 times. IMO, the theory doesn't make sense -- it's lame.

But do you CWCT really think that Mia wasn't being sincere and wasn't honestly afraid that the theory might be true?

Now that’s a good question. I wouldn’t believe it for a second. But you are asking me if SHE believed it.

I think an intelligent person wouldn’t believe it, but that’s not really fair. Maybe she truly believed it. I can’t say.

If she believed it, she still would have been saying that he was a liar and manipulator. So then the question is, do you deserve to be banned if you say bad things about a candidate that are obviously false but which you honestly believe to be true?

I can’t answer that, because if I was in charge she wouldn’t have been banned. But FO was banned after saying something he really thought was true but turned out to be false, because I suppose he SHOULD have known it was false.

So it is possible she got banned for saying something she thought was true.

Look, since I don’t know her, I can’t really say what she believed. So this is all speculative on my part. But I wanted to answer you as best I could.
