Has anyone seen the photo of Bernie snoozing away at the Memorial Day event?????

[Walk away]

It's a riot! I will try to get a copy and post it here. What a patriot!

1. Event not about him..so no interest..And thus, naptime

His ego is everything.

[Nonhlanhla]

2. I'm sure he is tired

There is plenty to criticize Bernie for. This is not a reason to, though. He's a man in his seventies on a grueling schedule.

[Walk away]

3. This is an event to honor the millions of people who gave their lives for this country.

There are better places to nap. This is an insult.

[fleabiscuit]

6. A lot could be read into that. nt

[TwilightZone]

10. Agreed.

I don't know how either of them keep up with it, frankly.

[johnp3907]

4. Lame post. Could be snoozing, could be lowering his head in contemplation.

I'll trash this thread now, but wanted to chime in.

[Walk away]

5. This photo was taken by and posted by Commander Zor Dunning who made it public on Facebook....

"Attending the Memorial Day Ceremony honoring the over 1 million Americans who have lost their lives serving our country, and watching Bernie Sanders fall asleep during it. There is nothing I can really add here"

9. Stop bragging.

[annavictorious]

8. Nah

It's more like full body slouching in contemplation.

[livetohike]

7. Imagine what the Republicans could do with this!

What happened to the "Energizer Bernie"? He has do much stamina LOL.

[MineralMan]

11. Please don't do this sort of thing. Thanks.

[romana]

12. Come on

I don't think we need to do this. He dozed off--he's probably exhausted. Let's not be as petty as some folks on this board.

[caquillo]

13. The optics of that won't be good

People will question his candidacy further, wondering if he can really handle the grueling schedule of the POTUS, a globally important figure.

14. God help me..I'm going to defend him

At least he was there and I'm sure he's tired. I've been to those type ceremonies and they can be long with speakers who can go on and on.

[Rose Siding]

15. I'd defend Hillary for it, but then I can't imagine her doing it.

If she did, she wouldn't get away with it without massive media coverage. As it is, it doesn't make Dems look good. He is #2 in nat'l leadership now, after all.

[BlueMTexpat]

18. This

"If she did it, she wouldn't get away without massive media coveraget. "

Plus ALL that coverage would be negative AND most of it would be posted on DU.

So I don'r have much patience with letting Bernie sKate on this, even though I might personally concur that it is understandable.

[SharonClark]

19. It's hard to let it skate when the Sanders fans on DU are attacking Hillary for walking

in a Memorial Day parade.

[nini]

24. I don't really care what THEY think

I figure I can take Hillary's lead and stay above this kind of childish crap.

[Jitter65]

16. The man is tired. I don't want him for our nominee but I can't criticize him for this.

He has been campaigning hard. I often wonder if he is even going to make it to the convention at the pace he is keeping. This is not something worth criticizing by Dems. let the GOPers and Trumpsters do it if they want to but it really should be beneath us do so.

[Fla Dem]

22. Agree with what you said. But just imagine if it was Hillary.

The snark and criticism would be over the top. I don't know how either of them can keep up their schedules. But then again, Sec Clinton, is used to a very demanding schedule.

[nini]

23. Oh I'm sure she'd get hell

but that wouldn't be right either.

[bluestateguy]

17. I don't really do patriotism policing

So I'll pass.

[obamanut2012]

20. He was wide awake at teh Warriors game later yesterday

Sorry, no excuse from me, and I would snark if Hillary did it, too. So disrespectful to do at a MEMORIAL ceremony, especially when you are wide awake and cheering at a basketball game later in the day.

[BlueCaliDem]

25. Priorities. Priorities. eom

[WhiteTara]

26. Well, after his nap, he had lots of

energy for the game. Makes sense.

[obamanut2012]

27. lol

[grossproffit]

21. At least he didn't start snoring like I did when I fell asleep at church.

[Her Sister]

28. Imagine if this was photo of Pres. Obama !

or Pres W. Bush , or Sen. McCain, or VP Biden! Or Putin,

Imagine SoS HRC!

It'd be telling if it was one of them! But because it's BS we feel bad to have an opinion on the matter!
