Oh, my! ...

[1StrongBlackMan]

So Bernie's campaign counsel engages in lobbying for energy companies, advises the Banking industry, and does anti-union work!

Perhaps, now, we can put the "HRC is connected to someone that worked for someone evil DU narrative to rest?

All large law firms, that are worth a hill of beans, work with/lobby for client in {insert evil industry here}.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

1. Did you make sure to put on that neckbrace... This much spin is sure to give whiplash...

[senz]

3. He's desperate.

[1StrongBlackMan]

5. No; but I AM amused.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

14. Well ignorance can make life amusing...

Special interests are paying Clinton Campaign and Superpacs in the form of donations... In this case Sanders is paying a law firm for services rendered. If you can't see the difference then I am sorry the school system failed you so greatly.

[beam me up scottie]

21. Logic: ur doin it wrong

[rbrnmw]

22. 1SBM ignorant? oh my you are so wrong.

He is a very educated man, I guess you don't know so I am informing you.

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

25. To be educated is to know one's own ignorances...

There are plenty of subjects I am ignorant on, I'll admit. But this was just flat out misleading spin.

[1StrongBlackMan]

23. I will not rise to the bait.

[Jackie Wilson Said]

30. We found out today you are both ignorant and you do what your leaders tell you.

Did Jesse Jackson tell you to back talk the white folk?

[1StrongBlackMan]

34. I'se sorry. I be fergit'in to mind myself. Thanks, (President) OBAMA!

[Jackie Wilson Said]

29. Your cover is now entirely blown, calling 1strongblackman ignorant. Took a while but we know now

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

31. His post is ignorant... I'm not sure what cover has been blown?

Are certain members above any criticism?

[Jackie Wilson Said]

33. DOUBLES down...

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

35. Okay...

On to my ignore list you go.

[1StrongBlackMan]

37. I am far from "ignorant" ... actually, I'm quite learned ...

That I can argue my point of disagreement, without calling you "ignorant" (implying some unestablished know or wisdom), says it all.

Now ... Please place me on ignore before you cross a line, and I read you for filth.

[LexVegas]

2. But Sanders is a man. nt

[NWCorona]

8. Yes he is!

[1StrongBlackMan]

4. Good idea; but, too late ... you've already started the spin!

You'll be hearing from my attorneys.

[HumanityExperiment]

6. In other words...

is this kitchen sink time?

Please explain this away:

https://theintercept.com/2016/03/09/hillary-clinton-wants-to-regulate-fracking-but-still-accepts-a-lot-of-fracking-money/

I'll wait...

[NWCorona]

7. And?

They are lawyer's what do you expect?

Do you really want Hillary's client list brought up?

[1StrongBlackMan]

10. I know ... That's my point!

Lobbyist lobby ... law firms lawyer ... rarely does a firm's client list represent a political statement.

[NWCorona]

17. Ok I can understand that

was someone else bringing it up?

I would like to hire Nelson & Murdoch but it's hard to find firms like that.

[1StrongBlackMan]

24. Look up and down ... visit the GD-P ...

but somehow it's always "different."

[NWCorona]

28. I have looked

But I don't see anyone bashing Hillary's legal counsel.

[mac56]

42. Avocados at law.

[NWCorona]

44. That was a good episode!

[brush]

15. But, but but . . . you guys have been shouting for months that Bernie was so clean . . .

and free of any corporate ties, while Hillary was virtually owned by corporations.

Please, please, please . . . tell us this is not true.

[dogman]

36. So this law firm gives Bernie money?

And does work for him? That's a strange business model. I need a law firm like that.

[brush]

45. Bernie gives the law firm money. But how can a candidate rail against corporate ties . . .

when he is tied to someone with corporate ties?

That's not six degrees of separation, it's one half of a degree.

Kinda close don't you think?

Wonder what kind of quid pro quo is afoot?

[dogman]

46. I see agreat deal of difference between me giving some one money and them giving me money.

The second is rare for me too.

[jmg257]

9. Perhaps not...lobbyist bundlers. nt

[senz]

11. Do any of these companies give MONEY to the Sanders campaign?

But just about all the bad-guy companies contribute to Hillary, don't they?

That's not going away.

[1StrongBlackMan]

16. I don't know ...

but I do know all the bad-guy firms contribute to a super-pac that benefits all Democrats ... except for maybe, Sanders.

[Jitter65]

49. But I bet people who work for them might. nt

[msanthrope]

53. It's worse....Bernie gives them money....nt

[beam me up scottie]

12. So you're using the guilt-by-association fallacy and you're shocked by what? Your own lack of logic?

[1StrongBlackMan]

18. LOL ... Really?

The is just too stupid to respond to.

[beam me up scottie]

20. That's how I originally felt about your op, Hector Projector, but it was too hard to resist.

[1StrongBlackMan]

26. Right'O.

[Jitter65]

50. BS supporters use it all the time against Hillary...or haven't you noticed?

[beam me up scottie]

51. Hillary is being criticized for receiving money from lobbyists.

The op thinks that using Bernie's lawyer's client list exposes hypocrisy, but it doesn't, it just makes Hillary's supporters look desperate to divert attention from this story.

[berni_mccoy]

13. OMG Lawyers represent good and bad people alike?!?! HOLY SHIT!

[1StrongBlackMan]

19. I know ... who would'a thunk it ...

but, I guess it only goes one way.

[dogman]

38. Who has complained about Hillary's campaign legal firm?

And what was the complaint they made?

[DisgustipatedinCA]

59. As you've pointed out, you're smart. Therefore, you already know that your argument

is intellectually dishonest. What, did you think no one would point that out?

[Armstead]

27. Most people hate lawyers until they need them. Then they want the meanest lawyer they can find.

And what, Sanders is supposed to ignore that basic reality?

Just like Tad Devine is no angel. But he makes damn good ads.

You find it funny that Sanders is smart enough to hire people who know what they're doing. But guess who calls the shots? He does.

But that's a whole lot different than a career of being enmeshed with bad actors and perpetuating a bad system as part of a campaign/politician's basic DNA.

[1StrongBlackMan]

39. You get NO argument from me on ...

Most people hate lawyers until they need them. Then they want the meanest lawyer they can find.

Or, this:

Just like Tad Devine is no angel. But he makes damn good ads.

But that's not my point.

[Armstead]

40. Then I guess I don't understand your point

[GeorgiaPeanuts]

47. He is trying to suggest...

That paying a law firm for legal services is the same as accepting donations from lobbyists from a special interest group. Disingenuous false equivalency

[Hoyt]

32. There would be 30 threads on this his if it were Clinton, and calls for indictment and

protests at her campaign speeches.

[JoePhilly]

43. Bernie washed all their sins away.

[Gothmog]

48. This is amusing

[cosmicone]

52. Great post k&r n/t

[Viva_La_Revolution]

54. lol. your post proves you are just here to spam

You should read the whole thread first. At least that might slow you down a little.

[cosmicone]

55. And your post proves you're

because the free stuff revolution is not succeeding.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

56. nope. gotta hella big grin on my face actually

The tide has already turned. Feels the same as '08

thanks for your concern tho

[cosmicone]

57. LMAO ..... this is too surreal

#feelthemath

[Lucinda]

58. I wondered where you were going with your question earlier!

Well done!

[PowerToThePeople]

60. Don't hurt yourself.

This is pathetic. Almost as pathetic as HRC's campaign.

[ieoeja]

61. So looking forward to Bravenak's redundant "I GOP trolled DU 2016" reveal on election night. n/t

[Scuba]

62. Wow, this distrortion is so beneath you I'm shocked.

You're generally a straight shooter; this post doesn't meet that standar.

[Bluenorthwest]

63. I'd rather talk about the candidate's own words and actions:

"It may be hard for your viewers to remember how difficult it was for people to talk about HIV/AIDS back in the 1980s and because of both president and Mrs. Reagan — in particular Mrs. Reagan — we started a national conversation, when before nobody would talk about it, nobody wanted to do anything about it, and that too is something I really appreciate with her very effective low-key advocacy. It penetrated the public conscience and people began to say, hey, we have to do something about this too." Hillary Clinton, March 2016
