Demanding a higher standard from Sanders


seems to be rife. And it's wrong.

Had Bernie made the comment about young black men in hoodie that HRC made, it would have caused a major shit storm. Had he uttered the line all lives matter, we'd still be hearing about it.

I believe all three of the relevant dem candidates care about racial justice. And I believe Bernie gets it on a visceral level due to his background, record and history. I think he's handling both legitimate criticism and unfair attacks quite well, with compassion and dignity.

Saying he doesn't get it, doesn't handle it well and holding him to a higher standard, continuously moving the goalposts, is contemptible, obvious bullshit. And it stinks to high heaven.

Blah blah blah oh racist one.

The fact that saying "All lives matter" is a faux pas for you leftists idiots is why you shouldn't be in charge of anything bigger than a lemonade stand, and I still wouldn't trust you with that.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
