HRC Group: GODDAMN! Anne Rice is OVER Bernie!

[NYC Liberal]

She endorsed Bernie last fall.

And here is her post on Facebook tonight: https://www.facebook.com/annericefanpage/posts/10154192945345452

Anne here: congratulations to Hillary on winning Connecticut, as well as Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware. Time to unite the party behind Hillary. And boy, judging from some of the bitter, sour, divisive and politically suicidal comments by some Bernie supporters here, I hope Bernie does some straight talking to his people. And the sooner the better. Bernie has been a great champion for his causes. He has made history. So let's not see the Democrats divided in the general because of Bernie. That would be a poor legacy for an admirable man who deserves a chance to continue his crusade under a Hillary Clinton Democratic Presidency.

and here are a few choice comments she made in response to other comments on her post...

Anne Rice maybe he should have run as an independent in the first place. Looks like he's used the Democratic Party for his purposes. I'm frankly deeply disgusted with his followers, and their nastiness. I wish I'd never given the guy a nickel, or a dime, or a penny, or a quarter. What a sorry mess.

Anne Rice I'm very sorry I ever contributed a nickel to Bernie's campaign. I had no idea his followers would become obstructionist and go to the depths they have with the politics of personal destruction. They're worse than Republicans.

Anne Rice I disagree. Bernie ran as a Democrat when it suited him. Now it's time for him to man up as a Democrat and support the party he has used throughout his campaign. It's time for him to heal the wounds that he has inflicted. It's time for him to talk some sense into his followers.

Anne Rice Is he the better candidate? Is there the slightest indication anywhere in his record that he would an effective president? I admire the man and his crusade, but look at what is happening. His legacy is going to be more polarization, more obstruction and more politics of personal destruction. Just look at the comments by his followers on this page alone.

Anne Rice Your candidate used the Democratic party for his own purposes, didn't he? He ran as a Democrat when it suited him. And so now what? He ends up being a force for polarization, for more obstruction, for more of the cheap politics of personal destruction? What a sorry story. What an ugly shabby end to a history making campaign that could mean so much more.

Anne Rice Bernie has played the politics of personal destruction as skillfully as the Republicans, it seems. He rose in on a white horse claiming purity and high ideals and now his followers want to hand the White House to Trump. Was a sad end to a history making crusade. I'm sorry I ever donated a penny to the guy.

Anne Rice Why? Why would anyone care about her speeches? I don't care. What I care about are her principles and how they play out in her votes, in what she achieves. Hillary Clinton didn't invent Wall Street. She didn't invent the Party System. She didn't invent rich donors. She is a woman of high principles and consistent dedication to public service. Bernie's followers are treating her as if she invented the two party system! It is just more of the Republican vilification with even more intensity.

15. Her common sense position will become more and more prevalent

among the REAL Dems in the Sanders camp.

As for the Libertarians, Maoists, Marxists, Anarchists, Radical Greens, PETA, and other assorted fringe groups, most of them will do what they usually do:

stay away from the polls all together, slink off into the shadows and then emerge again in four years time, no more engaged than they are this time around.

3. BS supporters, with integrity, seem to be as disgusted with some of his supporters as we are.

The teenage tantrums, I suspect are coming mostly from the bros, but they are vicious and stomach churning.

5. Oh they are.. BIG TIME

7. Well, whaddya know, the virus is spreading. By the time it's all over, his supporters will have....

the whole country turning its back on him. They set the tone of his campaign, and BS quickly followed suit, and I fear that's why he's D-O-N-E!

[Cha]

8. That is so true in so many cases, unfortunately. And, it could have gone the other way but

but it was not in their DNA.

Hillary!

4. Just getting some Quotes down for my journal!

Anne Rice tells it! I don't remember anyone throwing her under the bus because she supported BS.. I know I didn't or anyone except the surrogates who started out insulting icons like John Lewis, Delores Huerta and all of us!

6. Huzzah!

[Stand and Fight]

10. The post is no longer available... The Bernie Cultists must have attacked her relentlessly.

LOVE Anne Rice -- Especially once she regained her senses after going uber religious for a while... Sorry to see she took the post down due to their nastiness.

[fleabiscuit]

24. Just went and saw that :-( F'ing hate bots is all they are. eom

[Hekate]

11. Ouch -- that has got to burn!

I can tell the online Bros really made a friend out of her!

[BlueMTexpat]

16. Wow - so far as I know, WE didn't

throw her under the Hillary bus, but I suspect that she's now joined us under Bernie's. Great find!

[Thinkingabout]

17. There will be more, we welcome all supporters.

[Pika78]

18. Even the queen of darkness has seen the light

Also, I wouldn't try throwing her under the bus if I were the BSers... she has some pretty freaky friends.

[SharonClark]

19. Wow, what a wonderful endorsement

Her responses are perfect and obviously ticked off some very self-important people.

20. FYI, that FB post is gone now.

Don't know if it was yanked or not. Not even sure if that FB profile is actually Anne Rice or something run by her fans.

[otohara]

21. Same Profile Pic As Her Twitter Acct.

22. And linked from her official website:

http://annerice.com/

[apnu]

23. Now that gives it a bit more weight

The FB page still appears to be fan run, she might be linking to that on her site because that's where her fans collect on FB. Still that suggests she, in some way, approves what that the FB page does and says.

I guess I'm trying to say, I want to see another source from Anne Rice to show these statements to be true before I believe them.

I like the message of healing, I just want to verify this is something Anne Rice actually said.

Given the lies and distortions that fly around here and especially in GD: P, I'm sure you understand my caution.
