So Malloy and Frank are inappropriate for their positions, but Cornell West is A-OK.  Got it, Bernie.

They also have actual accomplishments to show as public servants, not just sermonizing and finger-wagging about Wall Street and the 1%.

Barney Frank responds to Sanders asking his removal.
And as expected it's a beauty.

if by "correct", you mean "incorrect", sure.

What is incorrect in the statement?

Gosh, next he'll be asking to be Secretary of State!

Or wait, he actually wants to change the party instead of securing a personal appointment.

Yeah, this guy's so damned selfish.


(also, not many losing campaigns go in with 45% of pledged delegates)

Oh, I see.

Actually though. Clinton and Obama didn't have ideological differences, so Clinton could be brought into the tent with a springboard for 2016.

Sanders is asking for the party to be changed because, believe it or not, he wants to change the party.

And make it more like Cornell West and Susan Sarandon?
Thanks, but no thanks.

Pretty much anything's better than the boring, bought and paid for blur that the party's become under the Third Way.

That's the kind of idiotic excuse that Naderites (who mostly support Sanders now) used back in 2000 and resulted in 8 years of Bush.
But hey, what's  a few thousand people dead as long as some privileged (mostly white) guys maintain their ideological purity.

>Implying Clinton isn't as hawkish as Bush.

Are you really that daft?
BTW, Clinton isn't running against W. She is running against a guy who can't be trusted with a toy gun, let alone with the biggest nuclear arsenal in the world..

I'm daft enough to see an advocated intervention in Libya, a vote for Iraq, and two really irresponsible positions on Syria and Ukraine and do the math.


BTW your entire 'argument' assumes that I won't vote for Clinton in the general. My point is that Bernie's right to push the Democratic party for everything he can get, because establishment dems are generally trash right now, not that I won't vote against Trump.

Sanders supported the interventions in Libya and Syria, so don't give me that crap that he is somehow a dove. I'm not a wide-eyed teenage boy who thinks that socialism is cool.

Ahahahahahahahahahaha.

Okay buddy, calm down, it's okay.

Snark and smugness can't hide the fact that you regurgitate standard far-left talking points.

1) Sanders voted for something very different in Libya than what Clinton pushed for and what happened.



So he was misled by the administration? Sounds familiar.

That Barney Frank quote was not really him, though. These are his comments:



Actually that's even more harsh since it insinuates that Sanders has accepted in the past money from bankers and accuses him for McCarthyism.
