Nov 2015

And it's plain to see who the cheerleaders are. The same folks who called BLM every name in the book four months ago are now trying to claim they supported them all along.

I supported BLM then, and I support them now. I'll just bet you were one of those folks calling them shills and hillary plants and all that other nonsense just a few months ago.

That's how serious you and the point you are trying to make is.

And *plonk*

You'll notice I rarely respond to you, for instance. ismnotwasm Oct 2015 #152

Sanders was calm and respectful. Clinton should learn from him. Vattel Oct 2015 #4

Sanders was huffy and appeared annoyed and put out. Hillary did not. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #6

He was probably tired, what is he 74 BootinUp Oct 2015 #12

Ageism isn't going to get you ahead here. Agschmid Oct 2015 #15

Isn't Hillary almost 70 herself? iandhr Oct 2015 #144

In fact, she is... MrMickeysMom Oct 2015 #153

I could respond, but these comparisons are beyond silly. Vattel Oct 2015 #13

Want to know what's really silly? Link to your criticisms of Sanders' supporters here 4 months ago stevenleser Oct 2015 #28

Pffft. More silliness. Vattel Oct 2015 #35

Yeah, I thought so. That's as far as your support of BLM goes. Nowhere. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #40

Now you're just being an ass. Vattel Oct 2015 #43

It's a very simple request and point. What were you doing four months ago when Sanders supporters stevenleser Oct 2015 #53

Once you call your opponent names you have ceded the moral high ground, just saying. DemocratSinceBirth Oct 2015 #143

You know, for someone who wishes to be taken seriously on Fox News, you take the cake... MrMickeysMom Oct 2015 #154

Bernie also appears on Fox News so you can hang up that old canard. stevenleser Nov 2015 #163

Sheesh ......... you've said this how many times already tonight? polly7 Oct 2015 #103

Bernie gave them the podium, stood behind them for some time and let them speak, he wasn't huffy and Uncle Joe Oct 2015 #18

and what would have happened if #BLM had run up on stage and literally grabbed the mic azurnoir Oct 2015 #58

And what if my aunt was really my uncle? We can speculate all we want and make suppositions stevenleser Oct 2015 #72

and we can continue to compare apples to oranges azurnoir Oct 2015 #79

Nope, the point is Hillary was actually discussing African American issues and not trying to stevenleser Oct 2015 #92

Oh really? Because that video you are responding to is Bernie speaking at Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #126

I'm not responding to a video. There was no video in the post. stevenleser Oct 2015 #131

Something far more sinister might have happened. nt artislife Oct 2015 #96

What bullshit that is... MrMickeysMom Oct 2015 #145

Thanks steven . . . it takes a village ucrdem Oct 2015 #9

So? MannyGoldstein Oct 2015 #10

You've very close to it, Manny. LuvNewcastle Oct 2015 #136

i think the bigger problem was the conpsiracy theories, i think it was ok to disagree and not like JI7 Oct 2015 #11

Those conspiracy theories were a subset of Sanders' supporters attacks on BLM in general. stevenleser Oct 2015 #16

i don't think these are Sanders supporters as much as people who hate Hillary JI7 Oct 2015 #21

Well, I would love to believe that, but just see the Sanders supporters here under this OP. stevenleser Oct 2015 #48

they would do the same if it was not Sanders JI7 Oct 2015 #57

Ahh, I see your point now and it is an interesting one. I certainly cannot refute it. stevenleser Oct 2015 #66

That still has no bearing on what happened today, though. artislife Oct 2015 #100

Yup. Agschmid Oct 2015 #17

Exactly JI7.. the Soros/Hillary CT that were proposed right on this board about #BLM being in Cha Oct 2015 #71

BLM seem to have specific issues with Hillary azmom Oct 2015 #14

BLM has excellent issues in general. But that's not what Sanders supporters were saying 4 months ago stevenleser Oct 2015 #20

Hypocracy is pretending you didn't just azmom Oct 2015 #30

I support BLM period. Not just when they attack the other guy. And I don't attack them when they stevenleser Oct 2015 #33

This is your idea of support? frylock Oct 2015 #47

Exactly, Steven. Why should BLM endorse any R B Garr Oct 2015 #147

Hillary was very comfortable with #BlackLivesMatters Prostesting .. i'm so glad they did! Cha Oct 2015 #70

I think you are missing the big story here. nt artislife Oct 2015 #102

Isn't BLM's McKesson negotiating with the DNC for a BLM town hall? oasis Oct 2015 #19

Last I heard, BLM had turned it down. I am hoping they reconsider. It would be an excellent town stevenleser Oct 2015 #23

Thanks, let's hope so. (eom) oasis Oct 2015 #26

DWS refused to have a BLM debate, only a forum. I will leave it to the reader to discern why n/t JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #67

Yeah, um, Bernie supporters were saying the same thing about wanting fewer debates in general. stevenleser Oct 2015 #68

No, we still want more debates, Steven. frylock Oct 2015 #73

This Bernie supporter still want more debates. n/t JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #76

Most boxers who just got knocked out want rematches too. The only better thing for Hillary than more stevenleser Oct 2015 #80

Your post confuses me. First Bernie supporters don't want more debates and now we do? n/t JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #84

Nothing confusing about it. Before the 1st debate all Sanders supporters wanted more debates. stevenleser Oct 2015 #87

So the only reason i want more is because i am stupid? LOL! Debate is good for the party n/t JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #101

Hey, I am sure boxers have smart reasons for wanting to get back in the ring with someone stevenleser Oct 2015 #110

LOL! Good one! Truly a dizzying display of thought in this post n/t JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #116

If it is dizzying, it is only because it's inspired by the level of your responses. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #117

Interesting JonLeibowitz Oct 2015 #118

Simple. In your #2, I employ a literary device known as sarcasm. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #119

Exactly, and you are responding in the way I intended. It works! nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #123

Another stupid Sanders supporter here. Blue_In_AK Oct 2015 #148

Two candidates have called for more debates, Bernie and O'Malley, O'Malley has done so even Bluenorthwest Oct 2015 #141

Thank you. I keep try to explain this. More debates help HILLARY. bravenak Oct 2015 #155

Yes, what did you do when Sanders supporters attacked BLM. Did you join in? Were you silent? stevenleser Oct 2015 #63

The mote, Steven. The mote. frylock Oct 2015 #74

Did I join in? You tell me. Do your own research journalist Leser. Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #75

You can't answer for yourself? I can do the research. Is that what you really want? nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #78

Yes. Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #81

Done. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #83

That's what journalist do, research. artislife Oct 2015 #105

Only posts by you in the time period were critical of BLM stevenleser Oct 2015 #82

Oooh! I so totally attacked BLM! I knew that was the post that you were going to bring Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #86

Sure. AND you stood by while fellow Sanders supporters eviscerated BLM here. Only to reappear now stevenleser Oct 2015 #89

They will deny it.. just like they deny everything when busted. Glad they're not accusing #BLM Cha Oct 2015 #99

You called it. Check downthread how that person is trying to slither out of it. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #115

I asked several people to just stop. I PMed people and asked them to stop. Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #104

And you can't link to any of them when asked. You couldn't stand up in DU public to the nastiness stevenleser Oct 2015 #108

Do your own research. Journalist Leser. Luminous Animal Oct 2015 #112

I did. The answer is you did zero. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #114

This is a demonstration of your untrustworthiness. DisgustipatedinCA Oct 2015 #50

Nope, sorry. If you are going to damn someone to hell for changing their mind, you better carry stevenleser Oct 2015 #56

You're correct. I pointed out that your word is of no value. I'm done now. DisgustipatedinCA Oct 2015 #60

If mine has no value, yours is in the negatives. nt stevenleser Oct 2015 #64

And by the way, I am not the one who alerted on you. stevenleser Oct 2015 #65

Actually Steven's word has plenty of value where it counts. Cha Oct 2015 #134

The Soros meme didn't originate on DU it was from HuffPo and run by MSN azurnoir Oct 2015 #62

It was a David Pakman article. Does that somehow excuse pro Sanders DUers for running with it? stevenleser Oct 2015 #85

in a sense yes do you automatically discount everything you read on HuffPo? azurnoir Oct 2015 #88

I discount anything anywhere that is rife with right wing memes like "Soros funded astroturf" stevenleser Oct 2015 #90

so now you're saying David Pakman is rightwinger-I guess he was covert huh? azurnoir Oct 2015 #91

No, he's not. But he sure as hell used right wing memes in this article. stevenleser Oct 2015 #93

Nice try except I've never said I believed this and rightwing is subjective azurnoir Oct 2015 #120

No, it's not subjective. "Democrat party" is not subjective. "Hitlery" is not subjective. stevenleser Oct 2015 #121

where politics are concerned nearly everything is subjective IMO azurnoir Oct 2015 #125
