Bernie Sanders: rabid right-winger? A senior Hillary surrogate has accused Bernie Sanders of "McCarthyism," of all things. Has Bernie's big Wisconsin win knocked the Clinton campaign off its moorings?
Five years ago, I wrote that the irascible Barney Frank could pick a fight in a phone booth. Further proof came on Chris Hayes' MSNBC show tonight, as Hillary-fan Frank jumped ugly with the Bernie-backer Robert Reich. The ostensible topic was whether Sanders had the substance to back up his plan to break up the big banks. But the big bottom line is that Barney Frank accused Sanders of "McCarthyite" tactics and "McCarthyism." In the liberal lexicon, them's serious fightin' words. Will Hillary stand by Barney's accusation tomorrow?

Fire up the popcorn popper: Barney Frank accuses Bernie Sanders of “McCarthyism.”
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Careful, McCarthy was proven right many times.
Say it, don’t spray it, Pal.
Very true: there were many Communists around at the time. But pretty sure ol’ Barney didn’t mean it as a compliment.
Very true, which explains why they’re so susceptible to “socialism.”
Can a commie be accused of McCarthyism? McCarthy would have had Sanders strung up.
A better article title: “Hillary barks to the wind”
With all these revelations coming out of Panama about big money and politicians all over the world Bernie is turning up the heat on “The Best President Money Will Buy”.
No. Better: “Hillary lap dog, Barney, yaps to the wind”
Bawney thought it sounded better to call someone a right winger than a “wabid, weft, winger.” I believe I know how he lost his ability to pronounce certain letters correctly.
That is rich, good old Joe would have loved to grill Bernie about his Soviet connections...........
Barney Frank—One of the biggest culprits of the folks who terminally screwed our country over. I hope I get to see him put in prison under a Trump administration.
Go get ‘em, Slurpy !
I'm honestly not sure. My brain hurts.
Bernie seeing communists everywhere? And Hillary calls him on it. Looks like I’m going to need a better cerebral cortex.
"....aaaahh,he got me in boff eyes ...it's like,like, human snot...or that Utter stuff"
Talk about a cat fight among Marxists. This takes the cake (with a couple of guys on it). One leftist attacking another Marxist defending a third Marxist.
You couldn’t get a better Marxist circular firing squad (I was going to say another type of “circle” but thought I’d let it pass so I wouldn’t be considered a rightest jerk).
Hell is being locked in a room with Frank, Reich and Sanders for eternity, or a week, whichever comes first.
Dems are freaking out thinking their race is nasty. It is more of a love fest.
