It will prove to people what Hillary supporters have had to deal with - just being aggressively yelled over, name-called (or listening to Hillary get called names) by the biggest bunch of hypocrites I've ever seen. Susan Sarandon and Rosario Dawson call out Dolores Huerta. Tim Robbins implies only Bernie supporters are the "hard workers". Now this - the mother of all hypocrisy - a very wealthy (and paid by big Pharma) doctor, whose own sister-in-law was rescued by diplomatic efforts headed by both Clintons, has the nerve to, in not-so-veiled terms call Hillary a corporate w**re.

If Paul Song is such a freaking philanthropist about healthcare, why didn't he open a practice doing affordable family medicine in the inner city somewhere? My S.O.'s father was a physician - very bright, recruited in the Navy during WWII, was offered a free medical education by the Navy because he was so smart, and ended up (he graduated after the war) going into public health. If Paul Song is so concerned about this, he should have gone into something similar, instead of having fancy weddings written up in InStyle Magazine.

It's just so maddening. This is what we see all the time, these incessant attacks that just should not be part of this debate.

so comments like these don't really hurt anybody's feelings because they're made from a position of purity.

Why can't all those Democratic whores see this?

But it isn't. They are saying it is those who go along with corporations and lobbyists, Sanders does this with his gun votes, the NRA is a lobby.
