I hope Hillary supporters are listening to Thom Hartmann right now.

[Fawke Em]

He has people on who were in Nevada and they are CONFIRMING there was NO violence.

Now, hush about it. It didn't happen.

[G_j]

1. Yep

and that is the third person I've heard say they witnessed the same thing.

[Ferd Berfel]

37. MOre than that

Hartmann had 2 eye witnesses on the show today

You can get the podcast and hear it.

Basically This is an attempt to swiftboat Bernies supporters to keep them out of the convention

One of the guests is DNC (and a Bernie Supporter) and she told the story of her father, also there, and a CLinton Supporter and a former SUper Delegate - tore up his ballot and left because of the Crap that the Nevada Chair and Party was pulling

BOth guests said the convention was rigged and there was no violence


also here's Boxer trolling the convention and doing what she could to enrage people

[G_j]

39. right, her Hillary supporting dad also said

it was rigged..

[Ferd Berfel]

40. THat's why he tore up his ballot and left in disgust

I hope someone interviews HIM! - Soon

[floriduck]

2. Unfortunately, Clintonites think Thom is just another Bernie guy.

It's another example of their cluelessness.

[Jitter65]

3. Depends on what one means by violence.

But the videos were pretty clear and it could be construed as "violence" if you were on the receiving end. And those phone calls and threats are pretty violent to me.

[reddread]

4. the truth has certainly been violently assaulted and battered.

[KPN]

6. The police should deal with the threats if there were any.

Go Bernie!

[jeff47]

11. And the phone threats to Sanders delegates?

Oh wait, they're for the wrong candidate, so no need to talk about them.

[trudyco]

27. Exactly /nt

[Fawke Em]

13. Yelling at people isn't violence.

And, obviously, there were police there.

Ironically, the only person arrested for violence against another candidate's supporters has been a Clinton fan.

[uponit7771]

21. some vandalism and posting peoples personal contact info too, but hey they used chalk !!!!

[frylock]

24. It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

[YouDig]

5. No way! Bernie supporters denying facts! Where have I seen this before. Hmm?

[uponit7771]

10. The podium bird told em they don't need no facts!!

[frylock]

25. Podium bird has built a nest in your head.

Living there rent-free.

[libdem4life]

29. It's the 811 post guy that gets me. He's too funny.

[Mike__M]

36. LOL. Just might be

Bernie's greatest asset here

[Fawke Em]

14. What facts?

Post the video of the violence, please.

I have scoured the web and cannot find one.

Because there was no violence.

And, it's not Sanders supporters who bury their heads in the sand: that's all on Clinton fans. They won't even admit she's being criminally investigated, for Pete's sake.

[phleshdef]

31. I don't even think you are a Clinton supporter. I think you are shit stirring troll.

[YouDig]

34. It's telling that someone posting facts is considered a troll by you.

[phleshdef]

35. Claiming that you are posting "facts" does not mean you actually are.

But hey, when in doubt, just say something totally contrived and unoriginal like "omgimpostingfacts!!!!!".

There was no violence in Nevada and if you continue to say that there was, that doesn't make you any kind of fact messenger, it makes you a LIAR.

[disillusioned73]

7. I think NV..

pushed him off the kumbaya train.. thanks Thomm - it's about freakin time

[haikugal]

12. No shit!

[uponit7771]

8. Nah, just people picking up chairs and calling other people bitch and posting their personal contact

... info and threatening their lives and vandolism.

Nah, non violence :rolleyes:@HartmanExcusingThisThugishBullshit

[polly7]

15. 'People'? Why so much exaggeration?? There was one man who picked up a

chair and put it down.

Someone was angry and frustrated at cheating and said something sexist, which was wrong. Were you upset at porn being posted on numerous Sanders FB supporter pages? I never saw a word from Clinton denouncing her Brock paid agitators. Did you?

What about the bullet and ransacking Sanders workers office and living quarters? That was absolutely evil and could have ended lives. Did she denounce that. Do you?

All this made up bullshit over Sanders 'violence' is pure desperation with one goal in mind - well, the same goals set out by her Brock machine since day one - make him, personally, out to be 'sexist', 'racist', whatever the fuck they thought would be a good, demeaning meme for the day to spread around. Against the man who's spoken out for those groups much longer than anyone. It's sick stuff.

[Fawke Em]

17. Because that's NOT violence.

You can't be arrested for yelling invectives at people unless you're disturbing the peace.

[frylock]

26. Oh, picking up chair(s).

What happened to the throwing of chairs?

[AgingAmerican]

32. Yesterday you were claiming 'chairs were thrown and people were punched'

[Demsrule86]

16. Tom is in the tank for Bernie and blind to the truth

And I don't buy that everyone else is lying. I stopped listening to Tom because I can't stand Bernie and it is Bernie all the time.

[Fawke Em]

19. He's always cordial about Hillary.

More crap you're making up.

He always says if Bernie doesn't get the nomination, we should vote for Hillary. I may not agree with him on that notion, but I respect his right to say it.

[disillusioned73]

23. You obviously..

haven't been listening lately.. It's been painful listening to him continuously try to sell the "Clinton & Sanders are one in the same" meme.. he's tried though

[phleshdef]

33. First off, its Thom, not Tom.

If you are going to criticize him, spell the god damn name right.

[BernieforPres2016]

18. What is about Hillary's people lying in Nevada?

Back in February, it was Hillary surrogate Delores Huerta lying that Bernie supporters chanted "English only" at her. Unfortunately for her, there were not only witnesses to the contrary but also audio proving her claim was a lie. So now in May, Bernie supporters are allegedly throwing chairs.

Anything to try to distract attention from the Clinton/DNC dirty tricks operation.

[antigop]

20. Do you really think HRC supporters listen to Thom Hartmann???? nt

[pinebox]

22. I heard Hillary supporters saw Elvis in Vegas too!

XD

[redstateblues]

28. Completely in the bag for Bernie-Didn't he support Nader as well?

[stonecutter357]

38. The intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual,
