Video: Bernie Sanders visits a couple who live near a polluting factory farm.

[Eric J in MN]

The drinking water is high in nitrate. The husband has cancer.

Bernie Sanders supports the Green New Deal. He introduced the WATER Act to upgrade water infrastructure. He's for family farms, not factory farms.

5. Sierra Blanca? The one Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee co-sponsored Biden voted yes on? That one?

6. Mommieeeeeeeeeeeeeee

They did it too and you're picking on me ....


Or ... telling a cop, "look, those other cars are speeding too, why not give them a ticket?"

7. Posting facts is not picking on you. Your post is very ironic since you brought up Sierra Blanca

in response to an OP about Bernie visiting families in Iowa having their water contaminated by factory farms.

8. lol .. nice try

It was in response to:

5. Sierra Blanca? The one Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee co-sponsored Biden voted yes on? That one?

It is clear to anyone who reads the thread.

Yes. It's very clear. Speaking of visiting Sierra Blanca, which you brought up, it's only logical to wonder if Biden and Ms. Lee will visit Sierra Blanca...since they were for it too...

10. Actually

The response to "When will he visit Sierra Blanca" is answered as "on such and such date" or "I don't know."

It had nothing to do with Sheila Jackson Lee or Biden -- that is classic whataboutism.

Mommieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! What about THEM?

11. I answered your response to the OP as I saw fit to answer it. If my answer wasn't

to your satisfaction, you could have moved on. Or you could have said, I wonder why they wanted to co-sponsor and vote for such a terrible bill that Bernie also voted for. Sometimes people can have different responses to a question that might not be the same as yours.

12. Whataboutism ... very classic nt

14. Yes, very classic response. nt

13. The way you saw fit to answer it was pointing the blame at someone else

who were not mentioned in the OP.

Anyone who reads this thread can see it.
