MILFORD, N.H. -- Bill Clinton uncorked an extended attack on Senator Bernie Sanders on Sunday, harshly criticizing Mr. Sanders and his supporters for what he described as inaccurate and "sexist" attacks on Hillary Clinton.
"When you're making a revolution you can't be too careful with the facts," Mr. Clinton said, deriding Mr. Sanders's oft-mentioned call for a political revolution.
The former president, addressing a few hundred supporters at a junior high school here, portrayed his wife's opponent for the Democratic nomination as hypocritical, "hermetically sealed" and dishonest.
He even likened an incident last year, in which Sanders staffers obtained access to Clinton campaign voter data, to stealing a car with the keys in the ignition.

KEYWORDS:
"Sexist, Dishonest, Untrustworthy" are three words that I would think would be like holy water to a vampire for Bill Clinton.

"Anybody that doesn't agree with me is a tool of the establishment," Mr. Clinton said, mocking what he described as the central critique of Mrs. Clinton by Mr. Sanders. Kinda sounds like "Anybody that doesn't agree with me is a tool of the Vast Rightwing Conspiracy." This "attack" just makes clear that, unlike his lasciviousness, his sting has completely faded with age.

It’s good to see Dems at least sparring with each other.
I watched some of the first Dem “debate” and it looked like a meeting of the Hillary Fan Club.

Oh, for heaven's sake. hillary is the sexist if she thinks being a woman should be a factor when we choose the next President. Sanders sexist makes about as much sense as it would for someone to say Trump is modest about his accomplishments.
FWIW, I'm ALL FOR a Trump vs Sanders campaign. Let's discuss the possible solutions, liberal vs conservative, without the DC garbage and their owners subverting it. In an honest discussion of problems and solutions, conservative solutions will win, every time.

In the future, you should never post an article that uses the words uncorked and tool in the same write-up that discusses the Bubba ... cause it might cause people to have naughty thoughts about what happened in the Oval Office!

According to the article there were very few people there to hear Bill Clinton and not surprising......like his wife they're trying to campaign on old school ideas of who they once were.....now that they are truly known nobody cares what they say....besides he's just a dirty old man now.

Bill Clinton was campaigning in Pahrump, Nevada last week home of the Bunny Ranch. Just wondering if he tried this speech out on the prostitutes there?
To: pleasenotcalifornia
A flak for the Clinton campaign was on CNN this morning, claiming that “Bill is just a passionate advocate for Hillary...”
Wish someone had commented, “He might begin with being faithful to his marital vows to her.”
It would really shut BJC up and render him politically impotent.
