No, I wouldn't link to that either, she did just about everything but use four letter smears.

However, that's what he can look forward to in the generals, if not much worse.

just like they learned to hate Barack Obama

Thanks, geek, for bringing Ms. Peyser's column to our attention. It's important to read some of the opinions from contrasting points of view. It helps provide understanding of the opposition's thinking and focuses context of the field of battle we Democrats are on.

Ms. Peyser is an acerbic, bigoted ignoramus but she has a pulpit and an audience.

I loved the bit about Planet #9, which we haven't yet discovered and confirmed, and which wouldn't ever approach closer to our planet than about 200 AU (a bloody long way). Plus it would have long since cleared its section of the Oort Cloud, rendering the body itself pretty harmless over anything but the extreme long term.

Just that bit of pseudo-scientific chicanery was enough to prove to me that she has no clue.

It's disgusting tripe from a right wing loon.

merely an observation of the nasty stuff that's out there that Sanders has not yet faced that Clinton has. I explicitly rejected the contents of the piece as bigoted in refusing to link or quote.

If group hosts want me to self-delete, I will however.

I just don't think this is the kind of tactic that our candidate -- Hillary Clinton -- would agree with. This is the same sort of thing that they've been doing on the Bernie side. I think it's wrong when they do it and I think it's wrong when we do it. We can, and should, do better.

I am not citing it for approval. I'm explicitly rejecting it.

if people want to know what's going on here, that's part of it.

happily do so.

I'm not trying to legitimize this in any way. I swear.

If you ever wondered how anti Semitic someone can be, while complaining a person isn't Jewish enough, read peyser's column.

that is a NASTY piece of work, that article. I know you didn't post it, but it was linked to down thread.

in respect to how Sanders would start to be treated if he won the nomination. Notice that he was called "geriatric" too.

He will have to deal with criticism of this sort, just as Hillary has had to deal with unfair and sick crap such as being suspected of murders and drug running. I even still see that in GDP occasionally from the Sanders supporters.

If this was about Hillary the Sanders supporters would be all over it.. touting as yet another reason to dump on her. I see nothing wrong with it the way it's presented. None of us have agreed with it, certainly.

it's either extreme cynicism or extreme naivete for them to act like the wingnuts wouldn't learn to hate him in record time

They're oblivious to the fact that he will be hammered mercilessly.

Flagrant anti-semitism and racial smearing. She's a real charmer--NOT!
