Let's see now. Let's compare: Hillary stands up to 30 years of bogus right wing

attacks. Withstands hours and hours of Republicans lying and trying to bring her numbers down because of ...Benghazi. She not only stands up to them and answers every question...She looks presidential doing it!!! Then there's Bernie...gets asked about his delegates calling women b****, throwing chairs, defacing property, making death threats...He runs away.

That's my favorite one. We're just trying to take the party back! The party we don't even belong to!

can't even get the people who like you to not resort to violence, how would he handle the Middle East? Hide in the Presidential bunker until it blows over or up.

"Putin wasn't fair. He cheated on arms control. He conspired against me. He won't let me get my way. He said I was unqualified."

Never saw anything so childish in my whole life. Adults take responsibility for the dumb mistakes they made.

I don't think we will see his "stunt double" Jane anytime soon either.

All of this theater would be drop-dead funny, if he weren't running to become the Democratic nominee for president of the United States.

and he mumbled that there's going to be a presser...after which Jeff Weasel Weaver came out blustering about a law suit that they eventually had to quietly withdraw - with NO media attention.

U.$. Media is clearly in bed with the moneyed powers that be and the GOP. They are the gauge I use to decide which Democrat to support, because if U.$. Media take a hands-off approach on a Democratic candidate (even a faux-Democratic candidate) it means they've chosen that one to run against.

Back in 2008, despite the hands-off approach that the U.$. Propaganda media had with Senator Obama, I genuinely believed (and have been vindicated since) that Obama was the right person for the job at the time - and I'm proud to have supported him in any which way I can and could.

I knew he was being favored by the moneyed PTB over Hillary Clinton (whom they genuinely fear), and now I've heard from Republican strategists that, yes, they supported Obama over Clinton, but that they only did so because they believed he was weaker than Hillary Clinton and it was their stated goal to ensure she didn't win the primaries and thus not pose a challenge in the G.E.

Boy, talk about egg in the face!
