2016 Postmortem
Showing Original Post only (View all)Bernie Sanders Camp DEFENDS 'Excuse Me, I'm Talking Moment After Hillary Clinton's RUDE Interruption [View all]
Hillary's slime-weasel David Brock earning his keep by jumping on Bernie's words to smear & distort his response........
During a discussion on the auto industry, Clinton started to interject while Sanders was speaking.
"Excuse me, I'm talking," Sanders told Clinton. "I will tell my story and you tell yours."
Sanders' comment was characterized as "cringe worthy" by Clinton allies following the debate. The president of Correct the Record, a pro-Clinton group, issued a statement criticizing Sanders.
"But perhaps nothing from this debate will be more memorable than Bernie Sanders rudely flying off the handle losing his temper and shushing Secretary Clinton, wagging his finger and repeatedly yelling the likes of 'excuse me, I'm talking' and 'let me finish.'" Correct the Record President Brad Woodhouse said in a statement. "It was a cringe worthy moment from Senator Sanders more fitting of the GOP debate stage than the Democratic one."

Clinton has to stop being rude and interrupting. If Sanders interrupted her, y'all would be calling him sexist. #DemDebate
