Here's the bottom line: The Democratic leadership of Vermont are adopting a new policy of character assassination against their political opponents.

Trumping up erroneous claims on a person’s character because you disagree with their viewpoint is the tool of a false leader.

For nine months they've been spewing lies and character assassination on Senator Burns. It's all politics.

At the very least the leadership of the Democratic Party would ask this guy to step down from his legislative leadership post, and frankly if he wants to spend all of his time doing dirty tricks and character assassination instead of the work of a legislator, he should step down.

has been repeatedly targeted by this administration and its proxies with the worst kind of character assassination, solely because they disagree with his social and economic policies.

We agreed that we won't indulge in character assassination. If there is any issue, he should address it through the party channels.
