Also - I don't think Bernie has any incidents of completely making up a story about being under fire. Not what I want in a president at all.
The explanation that Hillary was tired or confused is not actually reassuring.

from: Ronald Reagan’s wartime lies: The president had quite a Brian Williams problem
http://www.salon.com/2015/02/07/ronald_reagans_wartime_lies_the_president_had_quite_a_brian_williams_problem/

During Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir’s November 1983 visit to the U.S., Reagan told Shamir that during his service in the U.S. Army film corps, he and fellow members of his unit personally shot footage of the Nazis’ concentration camps as they were liberated. Reagan would tell this story again to others, including Holocaust survivor Simon Wiesenthal. But Reagan was never present at the camps’ liberation. Instead, he spent the war in Culver City, California, where he processed footage from the liberation of the camps.

Reagan biographer Edmund Morris proposed an especially charitable explanation for Reagan’s misleading Holocaust claim, arguing that the images “so burned into his brain that later in life — quite understandably — he imagined he had been there at Ohrdruf and Buchenwald.”

From John Podesta to David Brock telling Brock to chill out. Podesta said "we're fighting for who would make the best President, not who would win a physical fitness contest." I love it. Her team cannot even get on the same page. Brock is a shithead anyway.

smear campaign featuring the likes of that right wing smear monger Brock who is working in 'coordination with Hillary's Campaign' through the Super Pac he is running for her, raking in dark money that we are not allowed to see, who it comes from, how much etc.

I'll be happy to condemn anything even close to this kind of money handled by someone like Brock, flowing into Bernie's campaign being used to conduct LYING smears, see his last effort which totally backfired as this one will also.

I would not be supporting Bernie if he was associated and 'working in coordination' with anything like this.

But when Bernie supporters use actual RW attacks actually thought up by actual lying RW propagandists, they are not to be questioned.

Since when is clinging to destructive, hypocritical double standards a progressive value?

Once a RW, always a RW, even if you're working for the Democrats, with intent to making Clinton look silly.

He was no friend of the Clintons during Bill's presidency.

It's only your own partisan cognitive dissonance fueled by RW propaganda that allows you to pretend otherwise.

The hatred of all things Clinton has nothing to do with Sanders and his campaign, but has everything to do with harming the Democratic Party and its opportunity to win the White House and control of Congress in the fall.

JFC, it's amazing that HRC 'surrogates', who don't act without blessing, are highlighting HRC's own age!

30. Just like her answer on where she stands on H-1B program. So 2008!
Sun Jan 17, 2016, 01:45 PM
Jan 2016

Which was the last time she took any stances on that program when she supported that screwed up program for campaign contributors like Tata. Just about every other presidential candidate in both parties has, and the Republicans have talked about it in their debates too. But Hillary feels she doesn't need to explain if and why she still takes the corporatist stance of growing this program.

LITERALLY, so 2008!!! And she wants Bernie to have his medical records to us tomorrow?

The Democrats can't afford her to get nominated if this question doesn't get asked in the remaining Democratic Party debates, and it gets asked in the general election debates, and solidifies the populist vote to go to someone like Trump or Cruz who will be looked at as having taken more of a stance for American workers than she will have, even though they're pure xenophobic liars.

And with the type of people they surround themselves with, I wouldn't place a lot of reliance on that letter.
