It's part of a pattern of behavior.	TwilightZone	Dec 2019	#21
Yes.	sheshe2	Dec 2019	#31

No worries there.	TidalWave46	Dec 2019	#41
That she would say that about JOHN LEWIS in 2017, or 2007, or 1997, or 1987, or any time....	George II	Dec 2019	#42
Ms Gray not only voted for Jill Stein, but has no regrets doing so. What does that say?	still_one	Dec 2019	#47

Does it matter?	LovingA2andMI	Dec 2019	#11
Of course it matters. I'm interested in knowing if she has any integrity...	NurseJackie	Dec 2019	#22
This does matter. It was a revulsive tweet crafted to villify and shame a leader and an icon.	lapucelle	Dec 2019	#163

Never let it be said that they're not all in.	BannonsLiver	Dec 2019	#46
This tweet is 3 years old.	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#56
It is her sentiment. It could be 3 years old, 13 years old, 23 years old, 33 years old....	George II	Dec 2019	#58
Yeah she did poorly with that comment 3 years ago, which has nothing to do with Bernie.	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#59
He literally hired her to produce words	dsc	Dec 2019	#113
This message was self-deleted by its author	Eliot Rosewater	Dec 2019	#142
It shows the character of the people he hires in high places. Regardless of when she said it....	George II	Dec 2019	#125

Oh please. How is quoting Bernie &/or his surrogates "bashing Bernie"? Just, how?	Hekate	Dec 2019	#72
They dredged up a 3 year old tweet smearing a civil rights icon because he is sick now	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#74
Yes, and you may have noticed my post advising the newbie to self-delete as divisive.	Hekate	Dec 2019	#81
Lots of Bernie hate on this site....	mudstump	Dec 2019	#138
Here are some ways this could have been prevented	dsc	Dec 2019	#161
You know what the other way is?	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#162
He hired someone who trashed a civil rights legend	dsc	Dec 2019	#165
No. He doesn't have anything to do with this.	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#168

It was a tweet in poor taste. Using a mans cancer diagnosis to attack	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#172

Then wait until he doesn't have cancer anymore to share it again.?	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#174

Why would you share mean spirited words at all when the person they were directed at	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#176

No. In my world we dont try to use peoples' illnesses and out of context tweets to hurt	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#181
except this tweet isn't out of context	dsc	Dec 2019	#184
Funny how you contest the first point but are mum on the second.	Tiggeroshii	Dec 2019	#185
what part of this was posted the day she was hired (and he at least didn't know he was sick)	dsc	Dec 2019	#188
Wow! All queued up and ready to go.	jalan48	Dec 2019	#60
This is from Jan. 2017 & is TOTALLY UNNECESSARY to dredge up at this moment.	Hekate	Dec 2019	#61
I wonder why she's still on Sanders campaign. Maybe Bernie shares her views.	comradebillyboy	Dec 2019	#139
