latest smear on Bernie - that he has Alzheimer's and Jane writes all his legislation!

[Viva_La_Revolution]

Anyone with half a brain can watch his interviews and see this is blatant fail.

I call on all good democrats to refute this publicly. The same smear could be more easily used against Hillary if this gains traction.

[arcane1]

1. Which brainless dumb-ass is floating that one around?

[Agschmid]

2. Is this on DU?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

5. twitter

Gotta nip it in the bud there before it spreads

[bettyellen]

19. Do you really think it is wise to respond to every bit of idiocy on Twitter? It will never end!

[MineralMan]

21. Link to it, please.

Sounds like some moronic twitter user posted it. Why should we pay any attention at all to this?

[snooper2]

39. You just spread it more FYI...

People really don't know how the Intertubes work LOL

[Viva_La_Revolution]

41. the bernie army does.. the intertubes are berning up calling them out

Some of the new hashtags are very clever

[frylock]

52. Best to ignore it and hope it goes away.

Sincerely, John Kerry.

[whatchamacallit]

3. They must have spun the wheel-o-smears and it stopped 'ageism'

Again.

[suffragette]

4. So they're trying to portray him as Reagan and Jane as Nancy?

That's completely upside down.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

8. at this point it seems to be coming from the right

But it's hard to tell the difference these days

[suffragette]

12. Yeah, getting harder to tell the difference each day.

It's really vile.

Thanks for the heads up on this.

[KingFlorez]

6. I've never seen this claim until now

[leveymg]

7. He doesn't have Alzheimer's. There was a rumor that HRC had a minor stroke.

So, there.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

10. that's why it could be used against her too, and be more believable

His positions don't change every few months

[MisterP]

18. and he doesn't ask "where were THEY?!" when they were standing right behind them

or call Libya bloodless success

[pdsimdars]

27. Did you hear that comedian who said that

Hillary has a history of not knowing what men are doing behind her back.

(tasteless but funny)

[ky_dem]

31. (or knowing full well and then lying about - neither is very flattering)

[Onlooker]

25. Wow, quite the stereotype of stroke survivors

You should keep your bigotry to yourself.

[marions ghost]

9. This just insults all the people

living with Alzheimers in their family.

If they're going with this, it will backfire.

[hollysmom]

11. oh please and what do you think the whole unicorn and rainbows discussion ws about, like she has a

better mental record or is so much younger - sheesh.

[lumberjack_jeff]

13. If he had been diagnosed in 2012 with a life threatening blood clot in his brain...

... this might have been a useful line of attack.

[Onlooker]

14. Where did you see that smear? Or are you planting the idea?

Provide a link showing that some reasonably legitimate source is making that claim, or you've been outed as an anti-Bernie troll.

[beam me up scottie]

15. Someone here accused him of having Alzheimer's and "rage disorders".

They also allege he mistreats his wife, nothing her supporters do shocks me anymore.

[MoonRiver]

38. Back at ya. eom

[JTFrog]

16. Don't stand next to me! n/t

[JI7]

17. this looks like an attempt to spread a rumor

[MineralMan]

20. Who has made that claim?

Do you have a link?

Show me a link and I will go there and refute it. Don't provide a link, and I say it didn't happen from anyone who matters at all.

[riderinthestorm]

22. Search Twitter for "Bernie Sanders has Alzheimers ". Its there all right

I'm on my phone and can't figure out how to link the tweet.

[Lucinda]

32. This thread and one post from Jan are all that shows up.

[riderinthestorm]

33. Are you searching on Google or Twitter?

Because its trending and easily found via the Twitter search box.

[Lucinda]

34. I did both n/t

[riderinthestorm]

36. I won't say you're lying but I just went and searched again and its there

Sorry you "missed" it.

No Sanders Alzheimers trending...and no discussion today of Bernie with Alz Not sure why you would be seeing anything different than I am? Can you link to one of the tweets being retweeted?

[riderinthestorm]

43. No. I'm on my phone and can't figure it out

Search for "Bernie Sanders has Alzheimers " on Twitter.

Liberal America @song4jazz is just one of the tweeters on the thread.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

23. top tweets under search "bernie jane"

[polly7]

24. Some of these people are absolutely horrible.

Which group of people suffering will they use next?


Sick.

[Jitter65]

26. What Hillary campaigners are saying this crap. Or is this shit just being made up by

BS supporters or the GOP smear camp?

[jillan]

28. Refute this. Please.

[Blue_In_AK]

29. Good lord...

[notadmblnd]

30. Isn't Hillary the one who has had recent issues with her head?

fainting and concussions and things like that?

[ucrdem]

35. What legislation?

[JimDandy]

37. You're part of the problem--putting something out there without anything to back it up.

That's how rumors spread. Do you have a link?

[BreakfastClub]

42. That's horrible. Please don't reflexively blame Hillary, like BS supporters generally do. nt

[senz]

44. Well if it's out there, might as well head it off.

The light of day can keep small rumors from becoming common knowledge.

But of course you'll get your "fair share of abuse" for saying anything about it.

Stay strong. And thanks.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

45. exactly why i posted. sunlight is a great disinfectant

[SoLeftIAmRight]

46. much better than $hillary getting what she and kissinger will dream up - and

wondering what the hell bill is doing with his time

[blueintelligentsia]

47. Reagan 2.0, omg, or FDR 2.0 revived from the dead....n/t

[Autumn]

48. Cool. I respect and admire Jane. Bernie and Jane 2016!!!

[Hekate]

49. Latest smear on Bill Clinton is the same, minus having Jane write his stuff. Good grief, people...

Don't pass crap along and we'll all be better off.

[jfern]

50. So they're saying that Hillary badly lost debates to someone with Alzheimer's?
