the RW extremist attacks on Bernie began. May 27th is the date that a post by a DUer, entitled "Not Good Enough, Bernie" began the attacks on DU. http://www.democraticunderground.com/10026737025 May 27th is the date that two RW extremist journalists, Byron Yorke and Charles C. Cooke, began the RW echo chamber attacks on Bernie. http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=465196 Cherokeeprogressive had this post hidden almost immediately when s/he tried to expose the date of the first attack on Bernie at DU. http://www.democraticunderground.com/1251471386 Draw your own conclusions, I'd probably get tombstoned if I posted mine.

Number 1.
Hillary Clinton - this is the obvious one. Senator Sanders has the heart & soul of the people. Hillary Clinton, who thinks she is 'entitled' to be president, I believe, is behind most of the attacks. This is allowed in the political world. She is losing big time.

Number 2.
Republican party - they don't want another FDR (but better) president. They want Clinton if not a republican. They win with Hillary or a republican.

Number 3. The oligarchy - See number 2. This includes the 'media' and corporations.

You should copy this post to 'primaries' to get the most discussion....

The talking points all came out at exactly the same time, and the people parroting them all sang in perfect key with each other.

It was kinda funny seeing a choral group of propagandists in a perfect line and pitch. You don't see that among individual activists.

Is a repost (with some commentary) of an article from an outside blog. So yes, there were forces starting to attack Bernie at that point, both from Republican and establishment Democratic quarters, but does it make certain DUers part of a vast right-wing conspiracy? Yeah, not so much.

one does not need to be "part of" a vast conspiracy to be manipulated into serving its nefarious purposes, and that is abundantly evident of late

We have a nice number of absolutely loathesome people on DU. Not just like "oops they said something fucking dumb" but like, repeated, constant patterns. And all of them get to stick around. Most of htem are in host positions. it's very weird.
