Sanders said during the primary jrthin Sep 2017 #3

Objecting to Trump's attack on free speech is not "doing identity politics." nt SunSeeker Sep 2017 #100

Don't know. Has Hillary? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2017 #5

Only thing she said today was that the Navy needs to help Puerto Rico marylandblue Sep 2017 #6

Which is extra weird because the Navy's disaster relief left Puerto Rico today Nevernose Sep 2017 #20

I don't think the Navy has been involved with disaster relief in Puerto Rico. George II Sep 2017 #27

They weren't. They left PR to go elsewhere leftofcool Sep 2017 #60

Yes they should and yes she was. I can't believe that after all this time (a week or so) that.... George II Sep 2017 #62

Hillary Clinton is not in the Senate. Demsrule86 Sep 2017 #106

She isn't President she isn't even running or in congress are you Fullduplexxx Sep 2017 #133

Hillary is an important, high profile person The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2017 #135

She's busy suggesting specfic things that can be done to address Puerto Rico's needs. Ninsianna Sep 2017 #137

Exactly my point. Nobody is obligated to comment. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2017 #138

My point was the aggrressive, hostile and abusive response to a simple question. Ninsianna Sep 2017 #143

If you find a post to be hostile and abusive you could alert on it. The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2017 #144

I was pointing out that overt and explicit hostility, agressive personal attacks are Ninsianna Sep 2017 #147

I agree with you pandr32 Sep 2017 #162

You're not allowed to say these things here. As you can see by this thread Ninsianna Sep 2017 #164

That's fair. I can't respond right now EffieBlack Sep 2017 #32

Thanks sharedvalues Sep 2017 #33

Some of us, speaking only for myself, dont view all alleged allies the same. Eliot Rosewater Sep 2017 #125

Constructive discussion. Talk about what we stand FOR. Not what we stand AGAINST. sharedvalues Sep 2017 #175

From what I can see, you've been here for more than 10 years, not quite a charter member but.... George II Sep 2017 #28

That is rather an insulting question to ask another Democrat on this site. Demsrule86 Sep 2017 #107

Of course, and I'm allowed to tell you how nice you are to answer for her. Autumn Sep 2017 #37

THank You Me. Sep 2017 #39

Not sure why the snark in response to someone's comment EffieBlack Sep 2017 #38

So you couldn't find out anything in your "other circles" and come here to ask. Autumn Sep 2017 #43

No, I didn't see anything, but I know people on DU are well-versed EffieBlack Sep 2017 #48

Hostility doesn't run rampant on one side. Google works great. Autumn Sep 2017 #49

Why the hostility? NastyRiffraff Sep 2017 #134

A question is a personal attack? Autumn Sep 2017 #105

LOL! EffieBlack Sep 2017 #109

The people attacking the person who asked a simple question are engaging Ninsianna Sep 2017 #136

No melman Sep 2017 #148

Fair question - I've seem similar asked of many other Democrats and prominent Americans. George II Sep 2017 #24

One more time! ornotna Sep 2017 #25

I think he's really focused on healthcare right now. jalan48 Sep 2017 #26

Thanks for a straight, non-accusatory answer. That makes sense EffieBlack Sep 2017 #30

It's an accusatory thread melman Sep 2017 #41

We've reached a point where asking if Sanders has made a comment is "accusatory?" EffieBlack Sep 2017 #45

Right melman Sep 2017 #47

Yes. SMC22307 Sep 2017 #63

Yes, asking questions seems to have become "Bashing" when applied ehrnst Sep 2017 #121

How can anyone consider the OP and responses to it "an accusatory thread"? George II Sep 2017 #74

This *ain't* our first rodeo, George. (n/t) SMC22307 Sep 2017 #76

Yes, SMC22307. George II Sep 2017 #86

Here's a better question melman Sep 2017 #77

You made a judgement about the OP, only fair that you clarify it, don't you think? George II Sep 2017 #80

No I don't think I need to answer a question melman Sep 2017 #83

You're expending a lot of time and energy responding to a question you insist doesn't need answering EffieBlack Sep 2017 #89

Wow melman Sep 2017 #90

And yet you expect me to do so? George II Sep 2017 #110

Rhetorical questions melman Sep 2017 #117

the intent was to ask heaven05 Sep 2017 #158

Nope melman Sep 2017 #159

yep nt heaven05 Sep 2017 #161

Here's an even better question EffieBlack Sep 2017 #82

Nope melman Sep 2017 #84

Yes, the accusatory folks piling on with the unecessary rudeness are indeed noticeable. Ninsianna Sep 2017 #97

One wonders indeed melman Sep 2017 #98

Yes, and rightfully so... Bernie has his hands full protecting our right to healthcare... InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2017 #50

Objectively and materially, just what has he done to protect our right to healthcare? George II Sep 2017 #85

Yes... and saving lives should take priority! InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2017 #177

He probably won't make official statements until he's POTUS leftstreet Sep 2017 #35

Probably not. NurseJackie Sep 2017 #51

So sorry today's tweets have been about Puerto Rico, Healthcare and thanking McCain. Nanjeanne Sep 2017 #52

The outrage would be epic had Bernie said something about it today. Autumn Sep 2017 #53

Oh yeah. He surely would be doing it to Nanjeanne Sep 2017 #55

Good Lord! Could you be any more defensive? EffieBlack Sep 2017 #57

I think you don't understand the meaning of defensive Nanjeanne Sep 2017 #59

But you sound fabulous! ChubbyStar Sep 2017 #61

"Do you have any idea what you sound like?" SMC22307 Sep 2017 #65

They probably sound to you, like you sound to them. mythology Sep 2017 #87

It fascinating that so many of you are so certain of what my motives were in asking a question EffieBlack Sep 2017 #88

Hopefully he is busy preparing for the cnn debate tomorrow JI7 Sep 2017 #54

Hoping is a very positive thing ChubbyStar Sep 2017 #64
