Yesterday I got some pretty good news on my birthday. One good thing was that Hillary Clinton has turned down a Fox News debate before California.

Bernie says he's 'insulted' by this but we all know he's' actually just frustrated. Frustrated that there's nothing he can do about it. Fox also says its 'disappointed.' I'm sure they are.
Fox News made Donald Trump then tried to take him down in the primary and has now become Donald Trump tv 24/7/365.

Surely they didn't want yet another Dem debate to help Trump by having Hillary waste her time debating a zombie candidate?
Here is something else I'm sure Bernie is 'insulted' by: President Obama has just endorsed Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.
Seeing as Bernie endorsed her opponent:

"President Barack Obama on Monday threw his support behind Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), who is facing a progressive competitor in her first primary challenge for the seat."
“Debbie has been a strong, progressive leader in Congress and a hardworking, committed Chair of our national Party since I proudly nominated her to the role in 2011,” Obama said in a statement Monday morning.
"As chair of the Democratic National Committee, Wasserman Schultz has butted heads with progressives over her criticism of the activism among young women, her perceived favoritism toward Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and her general management of the party. "
"More recently, she co-sponsored legislation that would gut new rules put forward by the Obama administration intended to rein in predatory payday lending. The activist group Allied Progressive released an ad in Florida this month, hitting the DNC chair for teaming up with Republicans to defeat the policy."
"Wasserman Schultz is running against Tim Canova, a populist law professor who is a sharp critic of big finance and has provided an outlet for progressive frustrations with the DNC chair."
"The Florida Democratic Party recently reversed its decision to deny Canova access to its voter database, a valuable bank of information for candidates. The party had said it was policy to withhold permission for candidates challenging incumbents, but it changed its mind after heavy pressure from progressives in the state."

Note that Obama can endorse her even if she voted on the other side of his payday lender bill: this is what he's been stressing lately. As Democrats we agree 90 or 95 percent of the time, it doesn't have to be 100 percent.
The idea that you do is for those who want us to become the Tea Party of the Left.
The thing to remember: Obama is now very popular including with Bernie Sanders voters.
