Um. Chill out. If you’ll note my reply to this comment, what I’m saying is that even on his website he doesn’t lay out plans for HOW he’ll do it just THAT he’ll do it. The man introduced legislation to try to get this done already, it didn’t go anywhere but he tried, so clearly the plans are there and I have no clue

I've only seen one Clinton supporter say they'd refuse to vote for Sanders if he's the nominee. Take anecdata for what it's worth, but there you have it.

Oh man that is so, so bad. And this is why you should never say something like what he said because there is no way whatsoever to walk back from it. Now he has to keep on this drum beat that she said he was unqualified, never mind that - oh ho speaking of media spin *she never said that* - even though there’s video

Okay, I've read both defenses of Sanders interview - the HuffPo one you linked and the one by the NYTimes. The NYTimes article nicely fills in all the stuff Sanders left out, which shows that writer's grasp of the issue not Sanders. And this piece by HuffPo posits that this was merely a case of the Daily News having

And that she is doing that is a repeated refrain from him and has been since day one so the *if* there is a dodge and distraction that doesn’t change the fact that he said she’s unqualified.

I mean detailed plans that describe HOW he'll do what he says he wants to do. His website says exactly what he says in his stump speeches - that he'll break up the big banks, etc. The question people want answered is HOW. That's the question he failed to answer in the interview that started all of this, and that's

THANK YOU for actually pointing out that at no point did Clinton say Sanders is unqualified. Scarborough, who is a blithering idiot, asked a baiting question trying to get her to say that and she of course didn’t rise to it because she’s not an idiot. He said “Do you think Sanders is unqualified to be president? Do

So you don’t think your intro to this story and the picture you used lampoon those issues because the rest of it was joke free? Seriously?

*when there are no patients around* being the key point. It’s fine to use dark humor to cope. That humor dies not belong in any kind of professional context though, certainly not in the reporting of the crime. I work in community mental health, we see some dark stuff and joke amongst ourselves...but that joking

I mean I work in a job that deals with horrible and tragic things and yes my coworkers and I rely on dark humor amongst ourselves but that tone does not belong in reporting on something like this.

As an actual british citizen, fuck off. Dark humor is a valid way to deal with tragedy but it has no place in reporting of that tragedy.

Yup the strident sanders people I know all basically shrugged it off as “meh I’m not too upset about him dodging a few questions."

Oh I know I’m sorry I was agreeing and expanding

American foreign policy dues not change significantly from president to president and hasn’t in years. Sanders sounds better now but I 100% guarantee that is because he does not know what he is taking about. As soon as he is briefed and listens to advisors, you’ll see a continuation of the same policies we’ve had

No. These are his main taking points. If a continued refrain of his is that it’s outrageous that kids are in jail for pit but financial ceo’s have faced no jail time for the crisis, he should be able to point to the statue under which they’d be penalized by the justice system.

Elizabeth Warren isn’t the female Bernie Sanders. She’s polished and professional in a way that he has never had to be.

So excited. I adored this book as a kid. One of my all time favorites.

Fair enough, it is kinda uncanny valley esque.

I’m slightly oversensitive; I’m a pale English redhead - this time of year the my commute is full of radio ads telling me how disgusting pale skin is and to go get that shit fixed at local tanning salon. So there's a slight possibility I was projecting a little...

Um why be shitty about the non-tanned version? I mean, aside from the fact that weird lighting makes it super washed out, that’s just what pale people with pink undertones look like. He’s of Scottish and German descent, yes? Pale and ruddy skin. It happens.

I hate defending Trump here, but snarking on paleness really

This struck me as well. For her to say there's nothing wrong with being plus size and it's beautiful and healthy and that's not what she's offended by, and THEN to say that the reason she's bothered is because women who are her size will see themselves described as plus size when they aren't... if there's nothing
