Bernie Sanders Just Labeled "Political Terrorist" By CBSN Panelist.

[Purveyor]

Yes indeed, it is getting uglier by the minute...

[auntpurl]

1. Holy crap.

This is a baaad news day for the Sanders campaign.

[reformist2]

36. Actually, it's bad news for the Dem Establishment. This is the last thing they wanted to do.

Going after Bernie and his supporters is the nuclear option, and they appear to have gone there. They are destroying the party in order to save Hillary.

[dana_b]

50. yes, that's more like it

they think it's "bad for Sanders" but what they don't realize is that WE, the Sander supporters and voters, are watching, recording, tweeting, FB, etc. ALL of it! It's a much, MUCH worse day for the Democratic party.

[notadmblnd]

53. But who is going to save her from the FBI?

[HooptieWagon]

58. Dem establishment going scorched earth hurts Clinton in Nov.

Sanders supporters are aware of Establishments actions...each day more and more vow Never Clinton. There's not going to be a rebuild bridges and make nice period...there's a permanent wedge driven between the traditional liberals and the RW corporatist hijackers.

[TheBlackAdder]

2. And you don't think that is a bit over the top?

[Purveyor]

4. Of course it is which is why I posted the quote... eom

[Jester Messiah]

3. Well, they are obviously terrified.

Good. They should be.

[One Black Sheep]

5. Can any Brock person or Hillary fan justify and excuse this?

Damn, I hope not!

[auntpurl]

8. Man, I'm a Hillary supporter and I seriously don't like Bernie

but that is ridiculous.

[One Black Sheep]

12. thanks for that.

nice to see some moral clarity by a Hillary supporter.

[JaneyVee]

47. CBSN is a rightwing organization.

Why should i give a shit?

[Purveyor]

70. Well that "rightwing organization" is shilling all but 24-7 for Hillary but then again

the Clinton's are being excepted with open arms by the neocon right.

Little wonder why she fits in so well with them...

[Lil Missy]

73. I doubt that is Bernie's intention. But many of his supporters are, and intentionally so.

[nc4bo]

6. Jeezus, someone is shitting their pants. Wow....must be bad - whatever it is. nt

[winter is coming]

7. Whoopsie. I guess they haven't gotten the "walking it back" memo yet.

They should pay more attention to their earpieces.

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. I am reading this as a possible good night at the polls

and they are trying hard to hold him back... we have a narrative fight from hell

Oh and kids this is what virtual assassinations look like.

[haikugal]

78. They'll do anything....

[NurseJackie]

10. Wow!

I knew it wouldn't be long before Bernie's train came to a standstill ... but I wasn't expecting it to be like this.

[Purveyor]

17. This is more like it...

[auntpurl]

22. I think he is getting monumentally terrible advice.

Note to Bernie: seriously, step away from Weaver/Devine. Listen to Harry Reid and President Obama. They're trying to help you save yourself from yourself and your thuggish supporters.

[jillan]

11. Who said it? I really want to know.

[Purveyor]

28. I'm trying to see but because it is a panel, they are not putting up the

names of the panel with any regularity.

They did make mention that 'there are no Sanders supports on the panel' which is usually the case for CBSN.

CBS is totally in the tank for clinton.

[Purveyor]

71. Rick Davis, John McCain's former 2008 campaign manager, was the one who said it.

@realrickdavis

[Aerows]

13. They need to do a follow up

with the department of What the Fuck?

[griffi94]

14. After months of bombastic rhetoric

Some his followers finally got all the way over the line.

And in a very public way.

Bernie's response was tepid at best.

So far the press mostly gave him a free pass.
Looks like that's over.

Good thing he wasn't closer to actually being our nominee.

[auntpurl]

18. I agree with all you say, but

calling him a political terrorist is crazy IMO. His supporters who acted like vicious thugs? Sure. But Bernie himself? He had an opportunity to make a strong statement and he didn't, and that makes him complicit, but I would not call him a political terrorist by any stretch, and I think it's ridiculous to do so.

[griffi94]

21. It's the media

They're always over the top.

[auntpurl]

23. Sure.

Like I said, this is basically the definition of a "bad news day" for the Sanders campaign.

[Number23]

68. Perfectly well said. Agree with both you and griffi94

[workinclasszero]

15. Crash and Bern

#ownthethreatsbernie

[JonLeibowitz]

76. What bullshit. He already condemned them.

[dchill]

79. #ownthecheatinghillary

[workinclasszero]

81. Aww sour grapes

Here's a puppy for you

[dchill]

84. That's not a response.

I don't care for puppies. My kids kept bringing them home, and I got to feed them and take them outside. I prefer little birds.

You evidently prefer wars of opportunity and global privatization of healthcare and retirement benefits. And continuous flip flops and walkbacks. $12 an hour? Not gonna happen.

Know your candidate, and keep your puppy. You'll need it when your Icon gets indicted.

[KingFlorez]

16. Things are becoming quite disastrous for Sanders

[TCJ70]

19. Man, they really gassed up that swift boat quick!

This is nuts.

[grasswire]

31. yep

worse than what Bush did to Kerry

about on a par with what happened to Max Cleland

and about the same as Dan Rather.

[TCJ70]

42. I woke up this morning and checked GD: P and almost didn't know where I was...

...the sheer number of posts about NV from Camp Weathervane was overwhelming and has been all day. It's like another world.

[grasswire]

29. parrot. nt

[barrow-wight]

32. Thank you for your kindness.

[barrow-wight]

33. Thank you.

[arcane1]

38. More unoriginal copy/paste crap from the record-correctors.

Try thinking for yourself for a change.

[barrow-wight]

39. Record correctors?

What record am I correcting?

[arcane1]

45. You're failing to.

[barrow-wight]

46. Failing to what?

You seem to be speaking in riddles. Spit it out.

[arcane1]

48. LOL I'm not playing your game, parrot. Build your own post count.

[barrow-wight]

51. What game is that?

[madokie]

40. Welcome

to my ignore list. I'll be damned if I read anymore shit like you just posted coming from you.

[barrow-wight]

43. My apologies.

Does the truth offend?

[jillan]

54. Hillary said nothing when Bernie's headquarters were shot at; when a Hillary surrogate called

Bernie supporters Nazi's or this week when a Hillary supporter, Wendell Pierce, punched a young woman because she was a Bernie supporter.

Gunshots, Nazi references and physical violence.

So take your poutrage elsewhere.

[dchill]

83. You didn't get the memo...

Only Bernie and his supporters have to watch their tone. Evidently reference to gunplay, fisticuffs and Nazi name calling is being added to the "tone" meme. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil - about Hillary and the Hillarians.

[Land of Enchantment]

24. Yep, wait for it. We muted the sound and are watching the results come in---lessee--Bernie has

48% to 44.5% with 22% reporting. Now we don't have to listen to their discussion of who HER running mate will be....blah, blah, blah.....c'mon CSPAN. Better coverage and totally non-biased.......

[Txbluedog]

25. While Bernie failed in his response to the violence as a candidate

Calling him that is completely uncalled for

[arcane1]

41. At least change the wording a little so you all aren't so obvious.

A bunch of fucking amateurs around here

[sadoldgirl]

62. Again: Where is the video proof of said violence?????

[haikugal]

80. Pics or video or it didn't happen...and it didn't happen.

[grasswire]

27. there it is

swiftboating by HRC.

The instructions came down from Brock-Blumenthal.

[pmorlan1]

34. Shock & Awe

This is the political establishment's version of shock and awe. Pity they don't remember that after shock and awe comes blow back.

[Deb]

37. Was that Donald on the panel?

I'm so afraid too

[Nonhlanhla]

44. It's over the top

Bernie's response to NV has once again exposed him as weak. He has confirmed the impression I got of him after datagate (which is when I ceased being neutral and chose against Bernie). His supporters' behavior in NV was reprehensible, and his response to it was sad.

But to call him a political terrorist is unnecessary and absurd.

[NCTraveler]

49. This has been a really bad news cycle for Sanders.

But that's messed up.

Corporate media overall gives democrats the short end of the stick.

[notadmblnd]

52. Well they did vow to pull out all stops to destroy him, didn't they?

Working overtime today.

[arcane1]

59. And step one in their plan was to "Disqualify" him.

Which is exactly what they are trying to do today.

[notadmblnd]

66. What better way than to provoke protesters and hope it turns violent

And if violence doesn't come to pass the way it was intended, just make it up.

[Lil Missy]

56. It was ugly BEFORE Sanders supporters behaved like thugs in NV.

[sadoldgirl]

64. Again: Where is the video proof of said violence?????

[Lil Missy]

72. Turn on your television. Read the paper. Google. n/t

[haikugal]

82. Haven't seen it. Link please or stop with the lying.

[Peregrine Took]

57. "CBSN?" And what in the heck is THAT???

Like some podunk, no one ever heard of backwoods "network." Who cares???

[nc4bo]

60. Clinton/Brock/Synchophant/Network? heehee

[Purveyor]

61. CBS News streaming channel 24/7. I watch via Fire/Roku. eom

[Number23]

67. Thanks for that because I had the same question. Never heard of CBSN

[Purveyor]

69. It is a good channel for the cordcutters when breaking news is

happening and you can't watch CNN.

[Surya Gayatri]

63. Well, he has called for a "revolution" that's been allowed to get out of control.

Now, his revolutionary "guerillas" are veering into dangerous territory, using mob violence and making overt threats to terrorize Democrats.

[pdsimdars]

65. Could people PLEASE contact them and register your objection to this kind of baseless statement

http://www.cbsnews.com/contact-us/

[Generic Brad]

74. Somebody said something nasty on TV?

Oh, the humanity!!!

[felix_numinous]

75. What do we call someone who interferes in democratic elections?

What do we call that?

[JonLeibowitz]

77. A candidate!

There! I didn't even have to put my thinking cap on either!
