Hillary Clinton
In reply to the discussion: Three (3) more pinocchios delivered to Sanders. He's gonna need a bigger cabinet to store them all.. [View all]Cha
(297,123 posts)21. Does sanders even give a shit?
Senator Sanders argument that the Panama FTA would effectively bar the United States from going after tax evaders in Panama is wrong, said a joint statement by Rep. Sander Levin (D-Mich.), the senior Democrat on the Ways and Means Committee and former senator Carl Levin (D-Mich.). Sanders asserted that combating tax haven abuse in Panama would be a violation of the Panama FTA. There are many flaws in this argument, but one is particularly obvious: the Panama FTA clearly states that nothing in this Agreement shall apply to taxation measures.
Does anyone know if Elizabeth Warren was saying the same thing as BS on this?

Good find. Way too much of Sanders' comments and supporters' beliefs don't stand up to scrutiny.

He's an unprincipled fabricator who will say anything. His besmirched name should NOT be mentioned
