in the middle of the storm.

to the editorial board about his own freaking agenda.

Like you all claimed he lied about his civil rights record?

I will refrain from making a joke about Sanders and tokens though.

get through the turnstile.

I don't think you should really be throwing stones.

Because let's face it, there's not much difference. Like Krugman wrote today, Bernie is becoming a Bernie Bro.

He's a sad, pathetic little man who is more concerned about scoring points than the truth.

I can see why some people like his shtick.

I really wish he hadn't gone off on Bernie so personally and I am embarrassed that he did. He is better than this. He can have his opinions and god bless, But he's gotten so shrill lately it disappoints the hell out of me...

And, yes, it was a lie. Look, I've heard all the excuses. But I'm not 15 years old (anymore, where does the time go?). We all know politics, and we know what it means to call someone "unqualified", and we know that this is going to be appearing in GOP ads, in fact, I heard a number of GOP talking heads gleefully say "I agree with Bernie Sanders" the very next day.

I've read your posts here, I like you and respect you a great deal. And your disagreement with Krugman is totally legitimate. But I hope you see what's going on here on DU with the "Bernie or Bust" stuff, and the throwing under the bus of everyone from Krugman to John Lewis to Barbara Boxer to Dolores Huerta to Bill DeBlasio.

And if you don't, here's what the last post before yours responding to me had to say about Krugman:

I give credit where credit is due. And it makes it all that much harder to accept what he says about Bernie. I don't understand why he can't agree to disagree and leave it at that.

vote for sending nearly 5000 americans to die in Iraq, only one candidate of either party holds that distinction. But you knew that. Makes subway tokens seem a bit less important. The 20,000+ injured I am sure aren't to concerned with subway tokens. I'm betting a vote is more important to them, wouldn't you say?

Coming up next: your excuse for Bernie's pro-NRA votes...

When did congress hold a vote for removal of all firearms from Americans? With his vote, do you seriously think he is responsible for 30,000 deaths? Was the vote to ban guns ? Now with Hillary's vote of sending people to war, was her vote causal in the outcome? There is no need to make excuses at all because wasn't your candidate the one in 2008 claiming Obama wanted your guns? Remember Hillary pandering to the gun lobby in 2008, and Obama mocking her as "Annie Oakley" I find it humorous how your candidate has had so many stances she can get beat up from both sides. I bet that has something to do with her high negatives, her duplicity.

To make it simpler. Bernie Sander's vote was not causal to 30,000 Americans dying a year due to firearms. Hillary Clinton's Iraq war vote was causal of 5000 soldier's deaths, and 30,000 wounded. Plus a few hundred thousand Iraqi's deaths, many more displaced, and led to isis.

I am very anxious to continue this debate especially with the weaksauce you brought to it. Have a good day.

for all the deaths in Iraq. A single vote in the house/senate doesn't tip the scales.

like it or not, you own the consequences of that vote. No need to attempt to spin it. She owns every result of the war she voted for. She knew the people who were going to be running the war and didn't see that as a problem. She owns the deaths on all sides, the wounded, the displaced and even the tortured. Again, all the actors of the war, president, vice president, sec defense, sec of state etc. we're known quantities, she chose poorly. This is one of many reasons she is unqualified to be president. Have a good evening.

requirement for background checks at all. Thankfully, he failed. If he had succeeded, how many more deaths would there have been? Who knows? Then he voted for legal immunity. This time he and the NRA succeeded. How many people could have been saved if the gun industry could have been held accountable in the same way that the tobacco industry was? Who knows?

What we do know is that guns kill 30,000 Americans every year, and Bernie has been part of the political problem, which ensures that the deaths continue, for decades.

if so when, because without that your argument doesn't fly.

gun laws that would save tens of thousands of lives per year. Thanks to people like him, even requiring guns to be registered doesn't even get a vote on the floor.

and continue to do so. I'm pretty sure a d- rating is nothing you tout when seeking the gun vote. Good luck with your next batch of whoppers. I know this stings but you will get through it.

how you wished to equate gun deaths to Bernie Sanders but wished to negate every soldiers death, dismemberment, every Iraqi's etc. as previously stated. Par would be making excuses for such judgments of error as you have done. Until there is a vote for complete removal you can not equate gun deaths to his vote. You can equate the results of war to hers.

a white noise machine.

You are confusing the setting up of the meeting with Bernie saying he will actually meet with the Pope--he said it on The View

X-POSTED

On The View today-Sanders said he was going to meet with the POPE
One of hosts said to the audience--.....

Host: You're meeting with the POPE?
Bernie: "Yup" (sitting nodding)

Then the host told the audience --Pope Francis has invited Bernie sanders...Clap clap


Sanders said he was meeting with the Pope. Then when the host told the audience he said nothing--He just nodded ...!!(very short You-tube clip
WHOW!

Because you know, it's not like he's been fighting for economic justice his whole career or anything.

The sins she accuses Sanders of are splinters compared to the timber in her own eye?

Bernie can't be bought, that confuses and upsets people who don't know how else to do their job. It's also why so many of her supporters automatically assume he's crooked even though there's absolutely no evidence of that. They don't recognize an honest politician when they see one.

Income inequality, poverty, and global warming are Sanders passions in life. To be invited to the Vatican on behalf of America in that regard is a dream come true... Y'all are so salty over this, it is very sad.

Here is a sad for you.

join with us in asking Hillary Clinton to suspend her candidacy!

maybe next time?

FIFY

No, Hillary is going to be at George Clooney's house for a glittering star studded fund raiser there, it is one of her surrogates, Gary Gensler, who will be collecting the payoffs donations in Hong Kong.

Just wanted to clear that up.

There's a good bit of that already, after all.

Bernie has done it now.

because they're hollow inside.

+1

+2

Pushing stories you know are pure bullshit, I mean? Doesn't it kind of make you wonder if the person you're doing it for really deserves the sacrifice of your dignity?

Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

They think '3-4 against' actually means '5-2 in favor'.

You just have to weight things to count the 'right people' more heavily, eh, Steve?

Thanks for saying what needed to be said.

I thought about posting something similar but I'm pretty sure he's ignoring me.

I completely understand wanting to advocate for your candidate and attack the opposition. What I don't get is pushing smears you know are untrue.

They were not prepared for this. They are just grabbing every turd they can find and flinging it against the wall, hoping something sticks.

It's pretty funny, actually.

The campaign is running off the rails. They had figured Hillary would have locked it up long ago. She's a terrible campaigner with no credible experience or platform, and the more people see of her, the less they like her.

That's why Bill has gone all racist and Hillary is shrieking at anyone who asks her an inconvenient question.

They should just hang it up and go back to their money-laundering "foundation."

The thing is, the whole foundation is what it is based on the premise that Hillary would become POTUS.

If this does not occur, there may be a lot of investors looking for refunds.

It may not be good for them.

Not good at all.

Now? poof

Those elites really hates those populists don't they?

here is where it was planned

Seems they have reached parity.

That much ballyhooed Vatican coup seems to be going swimmingly.

Has the Pope agreed to a meet & greet with His Pureness (BS) yet? Haven't heard.


Seen on the View 8 April 2016:

Joy Behar: "Aren't you going to meet with the Pope?"

Sanders: "YUP!"

Fabricator, deceiver, tall-story teller, that's Sanders. What a disappointment he is.
