Look where Hillary gets some money....

This is the reason why Hillary is not going after big pharma.  it makes sense too, considering all of the money those a-holes rake in.  Why wouldn't stand up politicians like Hillary who claim to "stand up for the people" and 'know our struggles" be on the take from big pharma?

She, like her constituents, are liars and thieves.  Now, don't forget to run out and vote!

[brice1967]

I haven't seen a poll where he is out doing anyone.  I'm not too big on polls anyhow but it would make sense for the media to keep him out.  I have a suspicion that at least one candidate has been chosen to represent "her" party and they just haven't let us know....  Pretty sure this is another thing broken with the system.

[orphanedhawk]

Brice, yes its as if he doesn't exist even though he out does Trump in the polls, and Hillary too.

[mikesimon]

I think that is good advice.

[brice1967]

Remember your options.  Consider them all, wisely.

[brice1967]

Its as if Sanders no longer exists....

The word "attack" doesn't always denote physical violence.

attack
verb at·tack \ə-ˈtak\

: to act violently against (someone or something) : to try to hurt, injure, or destroy (something or someone)

: to criticize (someone or something) in a very harsh and severe way

: to begin to work on or deal with (something, such as a problem) in a determined and eager way

Notice the calm language... "very harsh".... "severe" then a bit more mild but could be considered harsh... "determined and eager".

It wasn't an attack and you've got nothing better to do.... as usual, than to complain about people you don't like.  You have options.  Lots of them.  Please consider them all.

[orphanedhawk]

Notice how the media ignores Bernie Sanders ?

[mikesimon]

Maybe it had something to do with this statement of yours:

".....She, like her constituents, are liars and thieves....."

constituent
noun con·stit·u·ent \-wənt, -ənt\

: any one of the people who live and vote in an area : a member of a constituency.

: one of the parts that form something

I think I "attacked" all politicians or at least that's what I meant when I said "She, like her constituents".  

Attack?  Why the violence>  I pointed something out that I found interesting.

[mikesimon]

But now that they are giving her money, big pharma is okay with you???  

I don't recall saying or implying or intimating that.
You attacked Hillary for it and it was pointed out that she's not alone.
That doesn't mean I like it or condone it.

[brice1967]

Just as I expected.  Condone the behavior... if your candidate is doing it, its warranted.  (Don't forget to point at the other guy!)

I don't have the time to look back now but there was a time when even the liberals around here were upset with "big pharma".  Irate, even.  But now that they are giving her money, big pharma is okay with you???  

I find that troubling.

Shady and shameless, that's nothing new on the campaign trail. Drugmakers are just trying to secure access to the ruling party by courting candidates, so they sweeten the pot w/ a few extra $$$.

[desrt]

...... and with Republicans crossing over to back Sanders over anyone the GOP can offer, it looks like Ann Coulter is shaking in her stylish yet affordable pumps. She's going to have to shriek 'Socialist!' even louder to make people forget there's a candidate who isn't totally in the pocket of the lobbyists.

[mikesimon]

Proof - Everyone is on the take.
Hillary just happens to command more money but then the republican field is larger so they have to hedge their bets.

[brice1967]

Proof.... shes on the take and democrats cannot wait to vote for her.  Hypocrisy is abundant these days.
