14. BUT...

May 2016

On Tuesday on my way to work, CBS Radio (KNX1070 in Los Angeles) did an interview with Bernie while he was in Indiana. Mind you, I'm always complaining of their tRump bias (it's been Rump, 24/7 since last fall with never even mentioning Bernie's name) BUT I was shocked that they let him talk and barely tried the old "Hill already has the nomination" thing.

He was, as always, clear and concise...and never took the bait that they try and lay out...AND said he is going to the Convention (Yes!!!)

It was really good and should have been heard by THOUSANDS as it was at 10AM.

Even last night on CBS Nightly, Scott Pelley point blank said "do we have your word that you are going to the Convention?" and Bernie said...Yes!

Take that Elite Turd Wayers!



p.s...I no longer listen to NPR...gave up on them in about 2012. I wanted to throttle Steve Inskeep, Michelle Norris and CokieHead Roberts.
