"Jake Tapper asked Sen. Sanders (I-Vt.) about the phenomenon of his backers saying sexist things to supporters of Hillary Clinton, his rival for the Democratic nomination, on CNN’s 'State of the Union' on Sunday.

they act like he's some Warhammer 40k-esque despot.

Meh, literally any man running against Clinton would have attracted that crowd. We'd be talking about "BidenBros" if Beau were still alive.

Burlington's a wonderful city! If Hill Farmstead Brewery is at the festival, be sure to stop in; their ales consistently win international competitions, and they're down the road from my old place (about 1.5 hours northeast of Burlington, meaning "almost Canada.")

I've been living down here for a year now and going back to Vermont every chance I get. Where are you planning on visiting?

I mean, eligible for parole after nine years for holding two men at gunpoint in a robbery conspiracy? That's genuinely surprising to me.

Before he landed back in jail in 2008—as the result of a bizarre, pathetic armed robbery in Las Vegas that probably didn’t merit the 33-year sentence that Simpson received

I'd imagine they weren't that keen on any number of condoms.

I just think it's great that so many fellow Americans got to experience the joy of voting for Bernie Sanders. You can't all be lucky enough to live in Vermont. But yeah, let's wrap this thing up and proceed with demolishing Trump. (If we could also demolish those aggressively banal Trump Place apartments on the…

And if they don't - say, through disability, circumstances, or just plain sh*tty choices - then they're not citizens. Um, no.

OK, I'm going to condense some responses here to save space.

Who killed welfare as we know? Who made it easier to criminalize poor and brown people?

I mean, I'm honestly not picking on you. Lots of people seem to believe that.

I know! Like I said, anything less than perfection is basically nothing. The fact that Tamir Rice (among so many others) was murdered by the police means that my wife hasn't been able to find anything other than low-paying menial work in a racist environment, and the fact of transgender oppression means that gay…

Yes, you're right, nothing has happened in my lifetime that has advanced the dignity of anyone who isn't a straight white man, because anything less than perfection is basically nothing at all.

Our long national nightmare is over!

I'm not asking anyone to pretend anything about Clinton. She's one of my least favorite Democratic politicians in my lifetime. I'm just asking people to quit pretending that she'll push the same policies as a President Trump.

If you can read Trump's statements about the Central Park Five - especially the one after the City of New York paid them - and imagine that he'd be no worse for black Americans than Hillary Clinton, then you're living in your own head.

The war was awful, and nobody should have voted for it. But nearly every Democrat did
