The Bankster Bernie meme again? This was debunked months ago. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #1

Really it was debunked what did he do change his vote.............. Historic NY Dec 2015 #3

Well, there are honest moderates and then there are those whose ends "justify" their meanness. merrily Dec 2015 #22

He's a blogger, and not a very good one. You can see why if you read the C&L article. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #23

You seem overly desperate to discredit Bernie, but you want me to do the research for you first? merrily Dec 2015 #16

Bill Clinton obviously signed it RandySF Dec 2015 #28

Sorry, no. My claim is that Bernie voted for the Bill before the Senate amendment was added and that merrily Dec 2015 #32

So he voted no after it was added? RandySF Dec 2015 #34

Yes, he voted for the final version. RandySF Dec 2015 #40

HuffPo already covered the bait and switch. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #46

But 'pissing off the right people' is IMPORTANT! beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #31

Well, imagining that people correcting the record means that people are pissed off is merrily Dec 2015 #35

Right? Who's pissed off? beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #39

You'd be surprised as to how many people mistake the meaning when I wave my privates at them.... Spitfire of ATJ Dec 2015 #44

Attacking Bernie over this is like attacking Hillary over the TPP ConservativeDemocrat Dec 2015 #33

Um, no. The difference is that Hillary didn't change her mind about TPP until her primary campaign. merrily Dec 2015 #36

Well, hater, you may chose to think so... ConservativeDemocrat Dec 2015 #56

Please. It's Hillary "evolving" for her Presidential primary campaign. And see Reply 35 again. merrily Dec 2015 #57

So you're going to stick to the lie. Got it. Scuba Dec 2015 #128

It is his record, I did not do the voting. I am not happy with his vote. Thinkingabout Dec 2015 #132

But you're lying about the clause in question being part of the bill Bernie voted for. Scuba Dec 2015 #133

It is absurd to use the ILA to blame Sanders for the invasion of Iraq. Vattel Dec 2015 #99

It's bizarre to think that voting against something is the same thing as voting for it. beam me up scottie Dec 2015 #100
