A lot of today's "Berniebots" were 2008's "Obamabots". Smarmie Doofus Aug 2015 #136

By the same token, I see during my searches of DU that many who hated Hillary in 2008, said merrily Aug 2015 #143

My guess is that those that you mention shifting from Obama to Hillary were also very anti-Edwards.. cascadiance Aug 2015 #166

I Agree But... billhicks76 Aug 2015 #145

Not sure what 'banned' means as I'm fairly new here PatrickforO Aug 2015 #135

They banned me July 12, shortly after I started commenting (after long-time lurking). senz Aug 2015 #115

Never, ever EVER use the term 'thugs' when referring to black people. Not ever eridani Aug 2015 #147

I was told that happened Rosa Luxemburg Aug 2015 #3

I can't get past preannouncing their intent to disrupt nor the claim they wanted no press coverage. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #5

There was no uproar however Rosa Luxemburg Aug 2015 #6

I'm looking for consistency and having a tough time finding it. Consistency=sincerity. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #9

jeb did the same thing with blm. but then they are siblings. so ... roguevalley Aug 2015 #95

Makes you wonder if they pre-announced their intent to disrupt Bernie in Seattle and Net Roots. Cleita Aug 2015 #7

It does beg an answer. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #11

I suspect any answer given would compete with a sudden bunch of disinformation. Bubzer Aug 2015 #59

Thom Hartmann was wonderful when he came out with an emotional defense of BLM. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #64

the after meeting tweets from #blacklivesmatter were not favorable to Clinton virtualobserver Aug 2015 #8

Refusing press coverage makes no sense. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #10

Where is this "preannouncement"? nt sufrommich Aug 2015 #15

There is nothing in your link that shows the Clinton campaign sufrommich Aug 2015 #21

"Wily Hillary Clinton Thwarts Planned Disruption" AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #20

Again,where is a link to blm "preannouncing" their intentions? nt sufrommich Aug 2015 #22

#HollupHillary AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #24

Those tweets are literally during and after the event,not before. nt sufrommich Aug 2015 #36

The first three tweets precede the event. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #47

This is a link from the Twitter thing you posted Quackers Aug 2015 #93

good link, thank you AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #94

#BlackLivesMatter Activists Plan to Disrupt Hillary Clinton Event virtualobserver Aug 2015 #32

The New Republic article was after the event. nt sufrommich Aug 2015 #35

the initial version of that page was before virtualobserver Aug 2015 #38

A reporter from New Republic got the story beforehand and accompanied BLM to the event. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #40

So you're accusing New Republic and BLM of feeding info sufrommich Aug 2015 #43

Read the "proof" vis-a-vis links you asked for and stop playing games. AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #46

I'm not the one playing games,this "we're just asking questions" sufrommich Aug 2015 #49

Are you calling BLM liars? Are you saying it was BLM that refused press coverage and not Hillary? AtomicKitten Aug 2015 #52

I didn't comment on whether press coverage was refused.I asked about the sufrommich Aug 2015 #56

campaign staffers inside the room were aware of those intentions due to the magazine’s publication. virtualobserver Aug 2015 #60

The point of the video went far beyond the question of sufrommich Aug 2015 #67

I just wanted to resolve the conflict between what #blacklivesmatter was saying..... virtualobserver Aug 2015 #71

from the politico article virtualobserver Aug 2015 #42

"The group had initially told The New Republic that they had planned to interrupt Clinton’s event" cherokeeprogressive Aug 2015 #34

They Pre-Announced It To New Republic... WillyT Aug 2015 #80

Full disclosure: Hartmann is campaigning for Bernie. SonderWoman Aug 2015 #19

That's a lie. Stop repeating it. He allows Bernie to spend an hour a week on his show taking Cleita Aug 2015 #29

He has admitted that Bernie is his first choice in the primary dsc Aug 2015 #70

Yes, he has. Is that a problem? The accusation was that he was campaigning for Bernie Cleita Aug 2015 #79

No it isn't dsc Aug 2015 #81

That's a stretch but I guess if you believe it, I can't change your mind. Cleita Aug 2015 #82

That is a bald-faced lie. RoccoR5955 Aug 2015 #72
