While campaigning in New Hampshire, Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) gave Republicans a lesson in true patriotism.
After marching in a Veterans Day parade, Sen. Sanders said:
Today here in Lebanon and all across the country in big cities and small towns people are saying a profound thank you to the millions of men and women who put their lives on the line to defend our country. Today also is a day to remember the great sacrifices made by the families of those who served, Sanders said.
If patriotism means anything, it means that we do not turn our backs on those who defended us, on those who were prepared to give their all. It means that we keep our promises. It means that we make certain that veterans in this country get all of the benefits and health care they need and were promised and that they get them in a timely manner. It means that we say no to those who want to cut benefits for disabled veterans and no to those who would underfund the Department of Veterans Affairs.

(3,839 posts)He's a fraud. He's a a sexist. We all see through his act and game. He's a Washington insider. He isn't a Democrat at all.
Some of the many things I've read about Sanders during this primary by HRC people.

(3,568 posts)this is the first time I've heard of such a thing as a "martial law flag". We never had martial law that I know of, why would we have a flag signifying just that? I thought it was just a fancy flag.
