belt hit job and awful attack on Hillary.

I think Bernie will man up, admit his mistake, and apologize in the near future.

Now back to real issues.

Update. I was wrong. Bernie is doubling down on his LIES.

[bkkyosemite]

1. She deserved it. You evidently did not see her interview on CNN today or are you in denial.

[oasis]

7. Bernie shot his credibility. He had better apologize swiftly.

[bkkyosemite]

18. No need to ...she wants to disqualify him and "destroy" him. LOL

[oasis]

28. I expected Bernie to jump the shark after getting so full of

himself. And woomp, there it is.

[CoffeeCat]

34. Bernie spoke the truth. He needs to do it again!

Bernie didn't say anything that his supporters don't think and feel in spades.

Her Iraq War vote was horrific because she knew Bush and the neocons were lying. That vote demonstrates her terrible judgment and her lack of courage in refusing to stand up to that twisted sociopath Bush.

Her SuperPAC is a corporate donation bucket that contains bribes from all of the millionaires, billionaires and bank moguls that she will kow tow to if she ever gets into office.

I'd say that alone demonstrates that she lacks the judgment to lead a parade, let alone a country.

We don't want a Democratic president who is a spineless, go-along warmonger and a bought-and-paid-for chump.

Bernie communicated the bare minimum that his supporters think of her.

What Bernie said was at a level 2. He needs to crank it up to a 6 or 7 and go after her for the disastrous failed state that she fomented in Lybia and her ties to the for-profit prison system. Just for starters.

Then, he needs to highlight the fact that Robert Kagan, the founder of the neocon movement was one of her advisers while she was SOS.

I'm underwhelmed by Hillary supporters getting the vapors when Bernie tells it like it is. This is a heated primary. Not the ballet. He spoke the truth. Get over yourselves and your flawed candidate who needs to be called out like this in a daily basis.

[oasis]

37. "Tells it like it is" huh? he's lying about Hillary's comment.

[Rosa Luxemburg]

42. The Clinton campaign is weaseling out of what they said about Bernie

blaming someone else

[oasis]

43. You claim Clinton Campaign said something to spark Bernie's attack.

What was it?

[revbones]

2. Her campaign manager specificially said he was "unqualified"

In a scripted interview with her where the questions are known, she "artfully dodged" saying it herself.

No, this was meant as part of the "disqualify" part of the war she declared today and stems from the emergency meeting her campaign had in NY after WI last night.

[itsrobert]

8. There's a certain code candidates pretty much stick too

in the Democratic Party Primaries. Sanders broke that code.

[pangaia]

12. No. Clinton broke it

[itsrobert]

15. Nope, Sanders went in full Democratic Party meltdown mode

Bernie can't win the nomination, so he's trying to Bern down the party.

[pangaia]

19. Do you have any idea what you are talking about?

No. None whatsoever
Do a little background work.

[bkkyosemite]

20. Clinton said she would distroy him and she wanted to disqualify him..pathetic

[itsrobert]

24. Nope, she didn't say that

You do know what you just posted is false? Don't you?

[revbones]

23. Disagree. She's been actively and publicly lying herself about him since Jan. nt

[CoffeeCat]

35. Like when David Brock...

Clinton's detestable junkyard dog said, "Black lives don't matter much to Bernie Sanders."? That was said in late Jan, before The Iowa caucuses happened.

Does that break the code?

Clinton and her psycho surrogates spent months denegrating and attacking Sanders and his "Bernie Bro" supporters.

Suddenly, when Bernie discusses the details of her SuperPAC and her Iraq War vote, Bernie is a real horrible guy and he owes Clinton a big apology!

You are not serious people.

[dchill]

3. I think YOU are deliberately misinterpreting what she said.

How about THAT?

[Politicalboi]

4. I think he said it because

Hillary used the deaths at Sandy Hook for political gain. And he's right, she's not qualified to be president.

[itsrobert]

11. Nope, Hillary reference Bernie's work to exempt gun manufacturers from liability.

n/t

[bkkyosemite]

21. Have you seen the tweet she just posted. A disgusting lie.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

5. your thinker might need adjusted

She just openly declared it today, after weeks of doing it semi-covertly

[geek tragedy]

6. His ego won't allow it. Time for him to go. nt

[pangaia]

14. Clinton is the one with the ego.

Time for her to go.

[dogman]

9. I think she's desperate.

She can feel the Bern in NY and she is furious.

[bkkyosemite]

22. Yes and the word destroy him...what exactly is meant by that.

[dogman]

33. She was anticipating his meanness.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

10. Nope, about time he said it... It needed to be said...

And she brought this on herself... She has begun with the lies and the attacks and using Sandy Hook children as a prop is what is considered an actual below the belt attack. Her highness has built herself quite a glass house, she should consider that when throwing stones at others.

[grasswire]

16. the thing is.

She has more scandals and corruption in her history than he does.

So she has to trap him into saying something that she can claim is an attack, and she can play the victim.

If he REALLY ever begins to speak the truth about her (as Trump will do), she will be finished. Ruined.

[Joe the Revelator]

13. Disqualify him, defeat him, and unify the party later

What the fuck else does that mean?

[berni_mccoy]

17. They are trying to anoint her St. Hillary like the rebukes did with Ron

Only its not going to work.

[slipslidingaway]

25. Clinton questions whether Sanders is qualified to be president - Wash Post

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/04/06/clinton-questions-whether-sanders-is-qualified-to-be-president/

[itsrobert]

27. Nope, that's a headline (clickbait)

Not what she actually said.

[slipslidingaway]

36. Jeff Zeleny stated last night that the new strategy was to disqualify, defeat and unify the party ..

later and that is exactly what they did this morning.

Has the Clinton campaign denied this? That is not what I saw today.

In your OP you said that someone in the Sanders campaign had misinterpreted things, if so then many others did as well.

AUDIO: "The Clinton Campaign has been watching these Wisconsin results come in and the delegate race of course is tight there, but the reality is they're running out of patience…. so they're going to begin deploying a new strategy… it's going to be called 'DISQUALIFY HIM - DEFEAT HIM' … and then they can unify the party later.

For the last several months, the Clinton Campaign has been first ignoring Bernie Sanders, then dismissing him -- now they are going to go head-long into him, I'm told, beginning here in the New York Primary in two weeks on his gun record, on other things. So Party-unity aside for now, one aide told me that will come later. They're going to start trying and defeating Bernie Sanders so that scenario you saw play out there on John's wall, does not come true. The Clinton Campaign is running out of patience. They want to stop Bernie Sanders, and move on to the Fall Campaign."

[ViseGrip]

26. It was a Hillary staffer who leaked her next steps against Bernie.

She did not walk back the comments. So why would we feel they were misconstrued? Another bad decision made by Hillary Clinton.

[hrmjustin]

29. The sanders campaign just sent out a memo doubling down on this meme so this was planned.

He will foolishly run with this and it will be the reason he loses.

[itsrobert]

31. His New York/Penn internals must be terrible for him

His campaign is getting desperate.

[hrmjustin]

32. Desperate and fibbing.

[timmymoff]

41. It was inevitable he was going to lose anyway

Errr unless you secretly had doubts. unless you have been lying to yourself when you would say he has no chance. Like your candidate you can't even keep your lies straight.

[Dem2]

30. He may have misunderstood and overreacted a little

I don't personally give a crap about either of these relatively normal political statements, though I must admit, calling her "unqualified" directly as he did was a little more than what anybody claims she did.

[Lucinda]

39. It is this sort of rush to judgment and lashing out does not bode well for his

ability to keep calm in a crisis.

[Skwmom]

38. B.S. It was very obvious what she meant and he needed to hit back. n/t

[Lucinda]

40. It is a real issue. It speaks to his ability to handle stress and not overreact without

having the facts. Really unwise choice he made tonight.

[LexVegas]

44. Bernie has no integrity. He will not apologize. Maybe he believes his own lies.nt
