I don't see how this is a partisan issue. At all. People who did wrong got punished.

Hmm, that's not the comment you had posted earlier.

Here, read the important part:Evidence released to date does not corroborate these allegations with physical evidence or provide any other evidence for these allegations than the claims of the informants. Based on past abuses of such informants by law enforcement, the National Lawyers Guild is concerned that such police informants have incentives to lie and exaggerate threats of violence and to also act as provacateurs in raising and urging support for acts of violence.
RNC + People who plan on protesting being arrested without evidence = partisan issue.
It's more Corrupt Republicans abusing power to squash dissent.

Only Democrats would be dumb enough to spend all that time infiltrating their opponents so they could crash the Convention. The reason you didn't hear about Republicans doing it is because they didn't, their time is better spent on other things.

You go ahead: make it a paranoid partisan issue. I really don't care, and by the time you got around to replying I had forgotten what this was all about. Frankly, whenever you post anything, I just see "Bush stole the election!" all over again, in the voice of Charlie Brown's teacher. When you start posting about the scuzzy things that Democrats do, I'll take you seriously.
