Bernie Sanders Scores A Win As The Postal Service Backs Off Plan To Close Plants

[procon]

1. I must be missing something...

Sanders, like most Dems, has opposed this Republican scheme to privatise the post office, but he isn't taking credit for this. While he has expressed approval, at no point does he imply that he's responsible for the sudden change in the the post office decision.

The writer is Jason Easley, owner of the website, PoliticusUSA, is editorializing by implying that. Sanders doesn't need anyone to glamorize his position, his positive record stands on its own. He omits mentioning what specific actions Sanders, any other Senator for that matter, none of whom have any direct control over the USPS, did to stop the closures.

This writer didn't do Sanders any favor by writing this specious puff piece. It backfired and only makes the Senator look grasping and desperate enough for attention that he must stoop to stealing credit for someone else's work. Just tell the truth and Sanders will still shine without the misleading embellishments.
