Are you aware of Bernie's vote enabling the Minuteman militias? SunSeeker Jul 2015 #102

What does that have to do with reinstating Glass Steagall? merrily Jul 2015 #108

The poster said she was a latino supporting Sanders; I wondered if she was aware of his vote. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #139

Okay, so nothing at all to do with this thread. merrily Jul 2015 #144

This thread is about Sanders. The poster brought up latino support for Sanders. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #146

WTF. merrily Jul 2015 #148

I know what the amendment said. I have it in full in post 102 above. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #149

If you know what it said, why do you claim "this" has nothing to do with foreign governments? merrily Jul 2015 #150

This amendment was about pandering to the gun nut, racist GOP base. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #151

Nope. No matter how many times you mischaracterize the amendment, it was not about merrily Jul 2015 #154

Are you seriously saying this amendment was not about legitimizing Minuteman groups? SunSeeker Jul 2015 #157

It's the gun lobby that he's wooing, again. George II Jul 2015 #172

I believe I'll have to stick with Bernie pocoloco Jul 2015 #116

Bernie's vote was not against the Department of Homeland Security. It was for racist militias. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #141

No, it was against funding to notify foreign governments of the activities of Americans inside the merrily Jul 2015 #152

Not just any activities: just "organized volunteer civilian action groups" near Mexico. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #155

Yes, so? You keep repeating the same stuff without any facts or analysis. And the more you do, the merrily Jul 2015 #156

Why do you think they passed this amendment? nt SunSeeker Jul 2015 #158

This is what your virtual murder prosecution comes down to? And, I've answered that already. merrily Jul 2015 #159

No, you haven't answered it. And I can understand why. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #163

Oh, please. merrily Jul 2015 #164

It prevents our government from warning Mexico about the murderous activities of these militias. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #166

No, you have not even shown that. And you are again mischaracterizing the amendment, which says merrily Jul 2015 #167

I stated the amendment word for word. I'm not mischaracterizing anything. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #171

No, you just said it prohibited use of ANY money for notifications. It doesn't. merrily Jul 2015 #174

Yes, it prohibits spending on notifications of Minuteman activities. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #175

Nope. Money from one bill. And you still have not explained how that changed a thing. Again, merrily Jul 2015 #176

It's not just any bill, it's the bill funding the whole Department of Homeland Security. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #177

"even if it can't be tied to the Flores murders." It can't, but is that your apology merrily Jul 2015 #178

It did prohibit just any notifications - only notifications about militias along the Mexico border. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #179

Nope. AGAIN, it prohibited use of money from the one bill it amended for notifications. merrily Jul 2015 #180

Prohibiting fed agency use of money for an activity is prohibiting the activity. SunSeeker Jul 2015 #181

"Prohibiting fed agency use of money for an activity is prohibiting the activity." Nope, that is merrily Jul 2015 #182
