23. Bernie says he's still in it, and he said he'd do what every other candidate would
Sat May 7, 2016, 05:48 AM
May 2016

so either he's a liar who cannot be trusted to keep his word, or he can release his tax records.

The candidate who wasn't under investigation (despite the best attempts by Right wingers to imply otherwise http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2016/jan/14/jeb-bush/heres-whats-wrong-jeb-bush-saying-hillary-clinton-)

The one the FBI and everyone else involved has stated has not broken any laws and has done nothing wrong, and wasn't hacked? That one? She can point fingers all she'd like about Bernie's lies, but she's not, because why bother.

Voters are asking why Bernie refuses to release his taxes, hey remember us?

Bernie's all about doing whatever best serves his needs, he doesn't evolve though, he makes mistakes and then pretends they never happened. Yes, it's funny how Trump and Bernie and Jane and you guys are all about the failed right wing talking points. Too bad there is no wrongdoing there and that indictment you're still fantasizing about, when even right wingers gave up months ago, isn't happening.

So Bernie has the right to doxx the supers and unlreash his abusive hordes upon them to harass them and call them names? (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-superdelegates-idUSMTZSAPEC2TAP0RGD)

Well he did say last night that hurling abuse at little kids, ripping their signs out of their hands and screaming obscenities at families attending the rallies is wonderful work, as long as the violent peons don't disturb the elites inside of course.

Supers have the right to support any candidate whenever they want, and no matter what stories you make up about why his own colleagues don't want to have anything to do with Bernie, you can't back up your allegations with anything approaching a fact, and bitter untruths do not substitute. So you're kind of talking out of both sides of your mouth with the Supers, attacking them for doing what they're within their rights to do, while impugning them and excusing Bernie's plot to harass and abuse them into compliance because he thinks he's "entitled" to them.

Yeah, you've got lots of interesting paranoid delusions there, moles and voting irregularities, is that when supporters didn't follow the directions on Bernie's website about when they had to register? Right. That's not their fault either must be those moles!

Hillary is not the one failing at transparency here, but if you wish to hear about the fiction that Bernie and his RW SuperPacs have dreamed up, well you'll have to ask the creators about what they made up.

The FBI has already told you that there is no wrongdoing, but you seem to be unwilling to accept reality, since your stories are so much more interesting, with all the imaginary moles and the bribery that never happened etc.

She does have lots of room to talk, but she isn't excoriating Bernie for his lies, his dishonesty, or his numerous incidents of FEC violations (which are actually against the law) or Jane's background in fraud. Shameless is spinning this many lies an this many RW talking points to try to distract from simple questions, like

Why won't Bernie keep his word and release his tax returns, like every other candidate is supposed to do? What's Bernie hiding? Why are Bernie and Jane lying about releasing tax records when they have not done any such thing?

What's Bernie hiding, and why are you more interested in badly written fiction than the truth?
