In reply to the discussion: Disqualifying: Bernie thinks Senator Inhofe (R) a climate-change denier is a decent guy and a friend [View all]Eyeball_Kid
(7,430 posts)13. BFD. Inhofe is still a flaming asshole. Bernie might like to pick the snot off Inhofe's shoulder,
but that doesn't mean that Inhofe shouldn't be tarred and feathered.
How many times have we heard people describe serial killers as nice people? Sometimes, even rape victims have nice words to describe their assailants. Go figure. I don't understand any of it. But it happens. Sanders is just as wrong-headed. Sanders needs to look at what Inhofe has DONE as a politician and make assessments on his record of behavior. How many lives has Inhofe ripped apart because of Inhofe's draconian political views? How many terminal illnesses has Inhofe caused by his asinine anti-environment, climate denying decisions? And Sanders thinks he's a nice guy?

Republicans, to a person, treated Biden's former boss, and "good friend," like a slave boy.

I am pointing out the irony in how foolish it is to chastise Joe for being amicable to Republicans.

Thank you, sheshe2 - I'm shocked that the sarcasm is not so glaringly obvious to some others...

There are things to be critical about of Sanders. This isnt one. Just makes one look like an ass.

Agreed, which was the OP's point; this is a response to an anti-Biden thread

The point you are trying to make with the Bernie disqualifying OPs is very clear.
