Very Cool..Bernie just smacked Granny Andrea Mitchell down...

she wanted to gossip, he said nope, we are here to discuss the issues...she wouldn't graciously let it go...and went on and on...she thinks she is Dear Abby sometimes....or the star of her own movie...can you imagine her married to Tweety?

President... blah... blah.... blah...? Because she's never talked about it much. I mean, other than every interview I ever saw her in. Also in her book and pretty much just random people on the street. I wonder when she'll find that same fortitude she had in Sudan with our very own authoritarians at home.

And I'm a bubby now, and not in the least interested in gossip. When I was middle aged and working in an office in a large government agency, I was a bit interested in office gossip. And the most gossipy folks I ever knew was an office full of young to middle aged male real estate agents.

You’re being defensive. Now, if my post offends you, move on. Otherwise, elevate your discourse.

Bernie 2016 primary supporter. This time I am looking for a progressive/left liberal candidate who has great ideas and also has an excellent concrete and detailed policy plans to make those things happen.
