..is a Black Mark for Bernie according to you?
Got it.
Like most bills, the Clinton Crime Bill DID contain some pieces that I support, even today...like funding to put 100,000 more cops on the street.
Unfortunately, Congressmen can not vote for just pieces of a bill.
They have to vote for the whole tamale.
The MIC and our government does attempt to pass around the money to all states in order to keep them dependent.
Bernie will get a base for the F-35 in his state that will provide many jobs for his state's constituents. The F-35 was/is a Done Deal. The money has already been spent.
I respect Bernie for getting a piece of that action for the workers in his state.
THAT is one of the jobs he was elected to do for the people of his state.

Agree. Let's get a Progressive congress elected, and get the bills to a Presidents desk.
