Watch: Bernie Sanders Can’t Stop Calling Wolf Blitzer ‘Jake’

Watch: Bernie Sanders Can’t Stop Calling Wolf Blitzer ‘Jake’
by Tommy Christopher | 2:07 pm, July 6th, 2016

There must be some kind of a bug going around cable news today. Earlier Wednesday, MSNBC anchor Brian Williams misidentified President Obama as “President Reagan,” and during a lengthy interview this afternoon, Independent Vermont Senator and Democratic presidential runner-up Bernie Sanders accidentally called CNN’s Wolf Blitzer “Jake,” for which Blitzer politely corrected him. But then, Bernie kept doing it:

You post "the news" but it's very clear in your intent to get recommends and more criticisms to pile on Bernie. You have no reason to pile on him any more. He's already said that Clinton has more delegates.

Get a life, poster. Your candidate will become the nominee.

I get sleepy near sundown. Maybe Jake was behind wolf making silly faces. Who knows. The mind is a fragile and mysterious thing.

It's, as I said in another thread, a bit like West Wing meets Mars Attacks!

Maybe someone has a .... errrr ... bug in their ear?

(You have to watch the series for that to make sense....)
