5. Of course, you probably didn't read their article

Cenk went over it in detail. They did not dispute any of the numbers, the dollar amounts that Greenpeace researched and Bernie mentioned. They AGREED with them.

Then Cenk went into what they said was the REASON for calling it a lie. . . It was HILARIOUS.
Get it? They agreed with the amount of money that was given to Clinton from the oil industry.
But they said that the $4.5 Million was to the Super PAC and everyone knows they can't coordinate with the campaign. right? Except Cenk quoted from THEIR OWN ARTICLES where they said that the idea that super PACs don't coordinate with campaigns is naive. I guess the don't coordinate only when it's Hillary's campaign.

They also said that it was only maybe 2% of her donations. So I guess if it's only 2% that means, well, it didn't really happen???

To summarize, they agree with all the money that was given, Bernie was right about all that, but then make up some BS excuses and call Bernie the liar.

You might want to think a little first.

4. One word keeps bubbling up

Throughout this primary season, with all the back and forth and lies and smears, wins and blowouts, one word seems to be bubbling up to the surface that is defining it

J U D G E M E N T

Hillary has a glaring lack of judgement and Bernie seems to get it right every time.
It is almost deja vu to look at some of his old videos from back in the 90s and he was saying exactly what has been happening. I wonder if he has a time machine and is going back and making those speeches based on the present.? In any case, his judgement is uncanny.

Is he invested on Wall street?

YES. and it looks worse on him because he is running this purity campaign against this. He exaggerates Hillary's involvement in all of that crap too. That commercial he has out with corporate stickers all over her.. His exaggeration is a lie and he doing the very same thing is hypocrisy.
