OMG!! Bernie Voted to Fund Troops!!

I can't wait to hear the republlcan in the GE make that claim.

I am sure they are watching DU closely to get some dirt on Bernie. So far, that's about it.

So, yeah, Bernie did vote to spend taxpayer dollars on funding defense. He even voted to go after Osama.

Like I say, can't wait to hear the republicans bring that up, should get them a lot of votes?

""Bottom line Sanders is a hawk, voted more times than Clinton has for military action and voted many times to find defense programs such as the F-35 which not to live up to the cost for sure.""

Republicans: Are you near one now? Can you just hear them talking about how Bernie is a warhawk?

a flaming liberal. The day of her Benghazi testimony I did errands during the lunch break and could only find Rush Limbaugh to listen to in the car. He was painting her as a flaming liberal. He was doing that to sell the usual bullshit that the US is not safe with Democrats.

So you're wrong. Bernie is not even on their radar, but they would not view his voting record as an asset. Obsessing about a vote from 14 years ago will not be a factor. It wasn't a factor for Kerry and that was ELEVEN YEARS ago. Its really a trumped up issue here, and mostly for a phony wedge issue.
