In reply to the discussion: Sanders reopens Dem primary wounds [View all]Uponthegears
(1,499 posts)The TRUTH are Sander's words written down in black and white at least twice already in this string. It ISN'T you or the OP labeling them a slime or saying they "imply" something else. In the REAL words, the phrases "Perez is a waste and has no meaningful contribution to make to the Democratic party" appear NOWHERE.
As for "Note as well that Democrats who endorsed Ellison haven't crapped on Perez," NEITHER HAS BERNIE. However, every single one of them has said EXACTLY what Bernie said which is that Ellison represents a new direction.
The ONLY reason that the OP and fellow travelers are attacking THIS time it is being said is because it was said by Bernie and Ellison haters want to use anti-Bernie sentiment to block a DNC chair candidate backed by people they CAN'T attack like John Lewis.
As for your "Perez supporters aren't saying this stuff" there happens to be one DU member prominently attacking Bernie on this string who has said flat out that they will leave the party if Ellison wins.
Perez is a great guy, but the tactics being used against Ellison by Perez supporters on DU are disturbingly familiar.
