226. I'm surprised at Judy Woodruff.

Fri Mar 25, 2016, 08:55 AM

Mar 2016

I watch the News Hour fairly often, and generally speaking the interviews are both informative and respectful. She did keep repeating basically the same question, only to get the same basic answer. Maybe it was because the Brussels attacks were so fresh. But not one of Ms. Woodruff's best interviews, IMHO.

At the same time, I thought Senator Sanders could have shown a tad less exasperation. As a candidate for president, and (perhaps, hopefully) president, he's going to have to put up with endless BS from the media, far more bothersome than this. On the other hand, I can't imagine how exhausting and exasperating a campaign like this must be. My hats off to both Democratic candidates for being willing and able to endure this endurance marathon.

Let's see: you're supporting a right winger. Broward Mar 2016 #9

You mean the candidate ranked 9th most liberal senator is a rightwinger? JaneyVee Mar 2016 #11

When was she ranked 9th? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #12

When people can't back up their bullshit memes about Bernie? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #24

mmmm, when people define their comments for particular results, I do not bother. seabeyond Mar 2016 #25

Why? It should make it easier for you to clarify your statement. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #26

It simply doesn't matter anymore. The man lost. seabeyond Mar 2016 #28

The truth always matters. Like the fact that Hillary hasn't won yet. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #32

My point is the denial of truth. Arguing it is the point of doesn't matter, since he has lost. seabeyond Mar 2016 #34

Your post is a denial of truth, no one has lost before a winner has been declared. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #35

Nu uh. An yu hu. Clinton has won. Sanders cannot reach the numbers to win, so he has lost. seabeyond Mar 2016 #37

Word salad. Care to post a link to a source saying she's already won the nomination? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #42

This is not a pacifist. seabeyond Mar 2016 #36

Straw man, no one called him a pacifist. You should know better than to pull that crap beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #40

LOl. Not a strawman, Not digging. Dry and simple.... seabeyond Mar 2016 #46

Of course it's a strawman, you found "proof" that he wasn't a pacifist when no one made that claim. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #47

Of course it is not a strawman. seabeyond Mar 2016 #48

Let's check the defintion, shall we? What is a straw man argument? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #50

When are you going to address what I actually posted? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #53

You expected me to actually read it? seabeyond Mar 2016 #57

I had hoped that someone who made such outrageous claims would make an honest effort to back them up beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #60

See, you always stop me immediately from reading further. I posted his votes. Nothing outrageous. seabeyond Mar 2016 #62

You posted nothing but "proof" of your strawman, remember? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #66

I know. It is just performance art bravenak Mar 2016 #54

Speaking of performances, are you here to post more vile hate speech against Bernie? beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #55

Not gracious, not gracious at all. Bravenak gave a heartfelt apology. And look what you do. seabeyond Mar 2016 #59

When you want to attack someone's credibility it's best you check your own first. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #64

No really, BMUS.... I am done even playing with you. That was beyond, acceptable. seabeyond Mar 2016 #67

I don't play so you were done before you started. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #70

Funny how you never have shit to say about racism against blacks. bravenak Mar 2016 #77

Who is contacting my relations BMUS? bravenak Mar 2016 #84

How would I know? Perhaps you should ask the people you claim posted your name. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #87

I need to know who did it first before I ask to ban anyone bravenak Mar 2016 #90

You said someone posted your name, surely you must know which posters did that. beam me up scottie Mar 2016 #92
