Another manufactured outrage against Bernie Supporters. What # is this? I've lost count.

Last edited Tue May 17, 2016, 03:02 PM - Edit history (2)

I saw Bernie supporters protesting against a rigged NV convention. Stop the presses, how outrageous!

Any moron would know the crowd would be upset so obviously the objective was to rile up the crowd to serve an intended purpose. And we have had allegations printed in major publications and talked about on the corporate media channels without a lick of verified evidence when we know that politicians have a LONG HISTORY of dirty political tricks and they have billionaires with a vested interest in the outcome who can fund these dirty tricks.

Have you no shame?

Update: Clinton is oh so desperate to pay the woman's card and voila, by magic (or by Brock) she gets a windfall. Oh the things that $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ can buy...

Perspective has a lot to do with things.

As for shame..... I think it's pretty shameless to attempt to overturn the will of voters as expressed in the NV caucuses in Feb.

At least take comfort in knowing that years down the road when David Brock or some other slimy hack writes a book about this campaign that the Hillary supporters will finally realize what they participated in. Some of them won't care but a lot of them will.

Clinton supporters had better stock up on their smelling salts and shed this phony think skin if they think Sanders and his supporters are "out of line."

Bernie will seem like a kindly old college professor, and his supporters will seem like a church choir by comparison to what they are going to face from the GOP and Trump.

are in place to drive people over the edge so our anger can be used against us. Watch what has happened in the past every time a 'left' movement gained momentum and popularity.

Yes this has to become common knowledge. K&R
