2. I'm going to edit my OP, because the title stank. brb.

Sorry. I just realized it was one of those post titles that don't mean shit unless you already know what someone's talking about, and maybe not even then.

I was referring to a mailing from the Sanders campaign, that includes a logo for the AARP. The AARP hasn't endorsed anyone and is Not Happy about the mailing.

4. I think it's the fact that Bernie's on AARP's web site talking about his stand on Social Security

http://takeastand.aarp.org/candidate/bernie-sanders/

and his campaign used the AARP logo to bring attention to his position which is shown on the AARP site above, and this tempest in a teapot has been turned into the Storm of the Century

6. Thanks for the link

I'm sure it will probably come in handy.

7. Ah, I thought that might be the case, like having "Union Power" (though AARP is specific)

Quicker that gets cleared up, the better.

8. That is bs. I went to AARPs website. You can't find the AARP comment

And if you go to that link they posted and try to leave a comment, it gives an error message.

9. It has Sanders statements, what comments are we talking about?

Oh wait, are you referring to bullshyte from Sanders critics?

[jillan]

10. I misunderstood - I thought you were talking about the one where they accused

Bernie's campaign of using AARPs logo. That story is bs.

Sorry!!

11. Lol, and it took me a minute to figure that out, I edited my post but you beat me to the draw

12. No. I live in Iowa.

13. I saw that other thread...

And no one can show the mailer.

There's just something odd.

14. My guess is that the mailers were sent by one of Brock's SuperPACs.

It's a classic ratfucking technique and he's not above doing something like that. I'm just wonder if they bothered to do a widespread mailing.

16. Why would Bernie waste money on mailers?

He has Twitter, Facebook, Reddit, and DU.

17. Just googled the crap out of it. Can't find an image, either.

15. No, none of those we've received have it.
