BS has responded to killermike and his "uterus" accusations.. he says it's the media's fault and gotcha politics.

Now where have we heard that stock excuse before?


Do you know why my millennial daughter, who started out as a Sanders supporter is now a Clinton supporter? I'll tell you why. The more she researched Mr. Sanders, the more she saw that he is really not the champion we need, as women. She said, flat out, that he doesn't support her own values and views, as evidenced by his own political record in Congress. Further, as a lesbian, she sees CLINTON as the candidate who will move things forward, not Sanders. When she started on her road of discovery in to the candidates, I simply asked her to research a bit more. She did. The results of her research were a change in who she supports. Yet, when it comes time for her to cast her vote?

I did not know that.. thank you for sharing. You have one smart daughter there. I wish my son and one of my sister's would do the same. Research him.. do not fall for the angry soundbytes!

Mahalo DemonGoddess!
