Well, this might be a tough one to walk back. In the aftermath of a feud that started when Bernie Sanders thought he heard Hillary Clinton say he was “quote-unquote not qualified to be president,” Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver isn’t just doubling down on the attack, he’s flipping over the table and slapping the pit boss. In an interview with CNN’s Carol Costello Thursday morning, Weaver stood by the Senator’s “not qualified” attacks on Hillary Clinton, and added a new item to the list that Sanders ticked off last night: the rise and expansion of ISIS.

Yes, that happened:

1. Atta boy!

[SunSeeker]

2. Wow. Weaver is unhinged.

Hey Weaver, ever heard of a guy named George W. Bush?

[WI_DEM]

3. Attacking her in this fashion is not going to help Bernie in NY or any other state

They seem to be losing grip lately.

[Lucinda]

4. More fuel for the "Sanders Campaign is Uninformed" fire

They are on a roll this week....

[Her Sister]

5. What is wrong with Weaver!

Concerned about Weaver!

[Thinkingabout]

6. Trump is running around with his "Lyin' Ted show and then we hear lies over and over.

Maybe this is an attempt to divert the attention away from Sanders votes on gun issues, his vote on the crime bill, his on the Amber Alert, and his vote on the CFMA just to name a few. His voting record is forever recorded.

[Her Sister]

9. Plus the NYDN editorial where he bombed!

[Thinkingabout]

16. I am glad he did this by himself, if it occurred during a debate then Hillary would

Be taking advantage of her establishment position,

[FloridaBlues]

18. Just like weaver did over them stealing HRC data blaming her for what they did

But weaver jumping the shark with this is unhinged
They just lost the NE states because a lot of women standing on the line for either candidate just made up their mind today

7. This guy is looking ahead.

Planning his future. When Bernie berns out Weaver will go to work for the Trump campaign.

[The_Casual_Observer]

8. These guys have become unhinged.

He ought to throw in Global Warming and the Ukraine too while he's at it.

[MrWendel]

10. He went...

after her of a Headline, A FUCKING HEADLINE! I mean Jesus, from wall street to this... does he or his team know how to check facts?

11. Here's an interesting Snippet of that article

"The comment is a stark departure from the left’s common understanding of the rise of ISIS, which even Donald Trump places at the feet of George W. Bush. 
If Sanders’ rant Wednesday night wasn’t a threat to eventual party unity, this might just be, and Jeff Weaver will probably find himself starring in a Republican campaign ad very soon."

AND THERE'S THIS ANSWER TO WEAVER'S PR STUNT:

Cool story, Jeff! Oh, by the way: receipts or GTFO.

Because you just accused the former Secretary of State of pursuing war in order to fulfill some shady Wall Street deal.

Now, this is the part where I take my red teacher pen and circle Jeff Weaver's head and write in my genteel lady professor handwriting across his conspiracy theory word salad:


CITATION FUCKING NEEDED."

Because, generally speaking, Jeff, most people lay the mess in the Middle East, including the rise of IS, at the feet of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, and the rest of the Neocon Gang. Hell, Jeff, even theRepublicans blame George Bush.

Or did, until you gave them a nice little clip to play in the ads during the General Election.

Hillary Clinton, unlike George Bush, cannot fairly be characterized as "supporting the Iraq war." She has called her vote for the AUMF a mistake. And while she can certainly be criticized for some of her work while Secretary of State, she is generally considered to have worked her ass off to fix Bush's sorry messes as best she and President Obama could.

So Jeff, if you're going to keep up your sorry campaign-by-insinuation, your sketchy claim that all along she's been fixing wars and funneling money to her shadowy unnamed overlords, to continue your clear implication that she is a closet neocon, that she fixes wars for profit whilst rubbing her hands together and gloating Margaret Hamilton style, then I say again:

CITATION FUCKING NEEDED.

Check the calendar, Jeff. This isn't 1692, and your spectral evidencejust ain't gonna fly.

**************

That's quite the high crime Weasel is accusing a former Sec of State of committing during her tenure.
I hope he's got some solid evidence to back up that slanderous claim.
Provide the proof of your claim against Sec of State Hillary Clinton.
Pretty big & bold saying that on Tee Vee for publicity ratings Weaver.
CITE YOUR EVIDENCE, NOW..waiting..and we're not the only ones who will be expecting to hear from you.

What say you, Weasel?

12. The BS campaign is like a nuke power plant going criticle.

And the men at the controls do not have a clue as to why.

[misterhighwasted]

15. Yes. Because they are all in the game for their own self gratification

They see a future in the high paying job of campaign smear & fraud.
Weaver sees big $$$ in his future & being an asshole is exactly the skill that will make him a member of the oligarchy schmooze club.

They're are all in this game to advance their futures & have not a second thought as to the nation they'll destroy in their greedy path to fame & riches.

They have become the very people their cleverly written stump speeches claimed to loathe.

The State Dept needs to ask Weaver for citations to his latest accusations against Sec of State Hillary Clinton.

This is serious stuff, for a big blowhard comic book salesman.
Good Luck, Weaver

13. Sanders is getting real close to jumping the shark

If Sanders himself says this, it's over. He took himself out of contention. Unforced error.

[Tanuki]

14. I was in line at the pharmacy yesterday and someone said there was

a shortage on albuterol. I bet that's her fault, too!!l!

[displacedtexan]

17. Instead of "Blame Obama" it's now "Because Clinton."

Truly heavy sigh.

[George II]

19. He should go back to selling comic books for a living.

[SharonClark]

20. Next up - Hillary shot Lincoln!

Top that Jeff Weaver!

[DemonGoddess]

21. Good grief!

He's unhinged! What reality does he live in?
