Washington (CNN)Sen. Bernie Sanders believes former President Barack Obama's plan to receive $400,000 for speaking at a September Wall Street health conference is "distasteful," The Vermont Independent reported Friday.
Speaking with CNN's Suzanne Malveaux, Sanders labeled the transaction "not a good idea" and said he was "sorry President Obama made that choice."
"I just think it does not look good," Sanders said. "I just think it is distasteful -- not a good idea that he did that."

Bernie dares to criticize Dear Reader. Uh, oh.
To: Libloather
He’s a hypocrite and a psycho, but he comes out with a good one every now and then. And it was fun watching him drive the beast crazy in the primaries

How about fibbing on a bank loan application?

However, Bernie is JUST FINE with accepting the same amount of cash to keep quiet about having the primaries stolen from him....
Huh... they’re BOTH putzes.
To: Libloather
I’ve seen clips of him in the last month saying he was not going to cash in with Wall Street firms and banks.
For some reason, nobody is mentioning this.
To: Libloather
So from where does Bernie make these “statements!” I'm guessing he hatches them in his new DNC-provided “dacha” on Lake Champlain. He's the classical hypocrite Commie who hopes no one notices how well he made out “loosing! I am waiting with baited breath for the government to indict his wife for the illegal $hit she pulled that put that little backwater college she was running out of business. Their "Commie Schtick" is disgraceful, but pretty much the way all of them operate conning stupid Liberals into thinking they are really for the downtrodden.

They would be prosecuted under federal charges, right?
I would imagine with the vastness of the pedophilia ring, cross state and cross country laws would have the feds all over them.

Michael Gray 🇺🇸 @graywolf 8h 8 hours ago Obama didn't prosecute any Wall Street CEO's for the financial crisis they created, today he's collecting TWO 400K paychecks from them.
