Your description fits Roberta Lange's behavior last night to a "T".

2. Sanders folks were just as bad last night.

They are desperate to steal the election from the voters. Spin it all you want. And yes, this was from wayyyyy back last month. Maybe why I used the word "was".

7. Sanders supporters were being unfairly suppressed.

Their behavior was incredibly justified. In fact, it was heroic for 64 Sanders delegates to stand their ground outside the door, FOR 12 HOURS, because they were denied certification and blocked from entry by law enforcement.

That undemocratic, change-rules-to-favor-Clinton,-ignore-Robert's-Rules-of-Order,-no-motions-allowed-from-the-floor-NV convention was a travesty and you, I and now the whole nation knows it.

Weak sauce on the "was". You tried this yesterday, too. Don't think we aren't noticing all you Hillarians putting up old news OPs all over the place lately, because you have nothing else. We're calling you on it every time we see it.

10. LOL...you have no credibility after posting an OP meant to deceive DUers

into believing that Vermont's major paper wanted Sanders to quit the race, which was and is not true. Having a tantrum and posting an old, lone-private-citizen-from-South-Burlington opinion from a VT newspaper blog and trying to pass it off as somehing significant because Sanders has been winning states lately and you have nothing else, well that is just pathetic.

What's even more hilarious is that, instead, you actually deceived 26 Hillarians into unwittingly reccing your OP.

And now you're here in your compatriot's thread that's touting another old story! Too f___ing funny!

3. You know that Hillary supporters sat down with her, right?

They were also appalled at the actions of the leadership that they linked arms with Christine to protest her removal from the county convention in February.

Now if you want entitlement, ignorance, ego and lack of maturity, here's another scene from the county convention that perfectly illustrates those issues:

5. you first go to a different time completely to deflect.

Then put up a video leaving out the context of the day and the absolutely horrid and unethical actions of Sanders supporters.

I get why you feel the need to deflect, go to completely different dates, and use things out of context. Glad I'm not in that position.

9. Different time? Oh, yes, the next day.

The context? The Hillary supporter (who, by the way, works for her campaign in Las Vegas) yelled at a group of Bernie supporters that he also accepted money from super pacs. One of the young women replied "Yes, it's called the American people", and the Hillary supporter then screamed obscenities at her. That's the "context" you want.

And since you don't seem to be able to Google and find the context for Christine Kramer, here's what Hillary supporters did about the situation:

The day of the convention the CCDP called in the police and tried to remove Christine Kramer from the premises. At that time all four members of the credentials committee even the two Hillary Clinton supporters linked arms as a sign of protest and sat in the middle of the convention floor.

Perhaps you should actually research something beyond a photo before you post it.

I witnessed 100,000 Americans protest the war in Iraq peacefully and with dignity...They made a difference.

These people, with the red faced, spittle flecked screaming and chair throwing are like the "Brooks Brothers" protestors.
