I didn't say I knew the facts. I simply gave my opinion on a discussion board of what it looked like given the reports. You, on the other hand, came out swinging at and insulting a bunch of freepers when YOU didn't know the facts either. You were relentless about it and apparently have decided to continue on path.

I have defended the man to the hilt from a lot of people that aren’t Conservatives, and there was a contingent of RINOs on FR that would often bash him on policy. I stated again that I did not like, indeed, I abhorred, a rush to judgment on this before we knew the facts. It was a lynch mob mentality, and I won’t apologize for that. You want to call him names and bash him NOW over his admittance of guilt, that’s up to you. I wanted the man to be able to answer the allegations before passing judgment. If you think that is somehow wrong or misguided, what can I say ? I thought being a Conservative means giving a person the benefit of the doubt until such time as we know the facts, especially someone who has done much for our cause.
