Bernie Sanders Supporters Disrupt The Democratic Convention

Thousands of backers of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) took to the streets Sunday in advance of the Democratic convention, kicking off a week of planned protests.

“I felt he worked so hard for the 99 percent, I could do my little bit and come to the convention to [get out] two messages: to still support him and also protest the Democratic National Committee,” said Paula Iaesella, a woman from southern New Hampshire carrying a “Still Bernie” sign.

Paula Iaesella, of southern New Hampshire, said she was considering leaving the Democratic Party.

Sanders backers endured intense sun and temperatures in the high 90s to march through the center of Philadelphia Sunday afternoon. Many of them had just marched for clean energy earlier in the day.

The only person less popular than Hillary Clinton at the rally was Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), who had just stepped down as convention chair after leaked emails came out suggesting DNC staff favored Clinton over Sanders. For Sanders supporters, the emails proved what they had believed all along ― that despite public pronouncements of neutrality, the Democratic establishment was helping Clinton.

Howabout you stop posting up inane ideas about the convention, Tom?

The '68 Democratic convention shenanigans were hands down the single best gift the Left gave to Dick Nixon and the Republicans.

Naw, just wrap a wet towel around your head. My crazy assed brother in law was heaving tear gas canisters back at the DC police back in '71 at the Washington Monument during the May Day demonstrations. Then we got our stupid asses chased around the monument grounds by the Park Police on horseback until we hid in the public restrooms.

PHILADELPHIA (The Borowitz Report)—In an unorthodox departure from tradition, the Democratic National Convention will kick off its prime-time schedule on Monday night with what a D.N.C. spokesman called “three hours straight of booing.”

The booing, which is slated to begin at 8 P.M. and end promptly at eleven, will give those assembled at the D.N.C. an opportunity to “get it out of their system,” the spokesman said.

The decision to schedule three hours of booing came after rancorous negotiations between the Clinton and Sanders camps, with the Clinton side originally offering half an hour of booing and the Sanders side demanding twenty hours.

Reportedly, the Clinton camp also vetoed a demand by the Sanders camp that the definition of booing be expanded to include throwing things.

While the D.N.C. hailed the three-hour booing session as a compromise that was acceptable to both sides, many Sanders delegates reacted angrily to the agreement, arguing that the negotiations had been rigged against them.

“Once again, we’ve been screwed,” Carol Foyler, a Sanders delegate from New Hampshire, said. “Three hours is barely enough time to boo Debbie Wasserman Schultz.”

I just watched Sandernistas booing Raul Grijalva at the convention.

F**kin' morans. :rolleyes:

Bernie's followers can suck it: not for being Bernie's followers but for not knowing when they've lost.

Now, they're just making everyone look bad.

Tom Joad 07-26-2016 03:37 AM

Áll of you Clintonistas are gonna be crying in your beer when she loses to Trump.

And I'll be here to rub your noses in it.

merrylander 07-26-2016 05:29 AM

Where are you planning to move to Tom, as Trump slowly drives the country into bankruptcy like he did everything else? I know where I am going and you are not welcome.

I have two words for his camp followers - Grow up.

donquixote99 07-26-2016 07:10 AM

As the hyper-inflation takes hold, Trump will declare "We cannot afford unlimited 'cost of living' increases for loosers who aren't pulling their weight." See how much he gloats then.

The Ryan redo of health care will be gloat city!

I got along real well with the Canadians I met in Nova Scotia.

And I got a number of compliments on my Bernie bumper sticker and T-shirt.

So, SUCK IT.

No way, no how.

The funny thing about you is that you don't give a shit about the very people that will get hurt by a Trump presidency. The young folks who will have to live with a hard right Supreme Court and the decisions they'll make for the next couple of generations.

Some revolutionary you've turned out to be.

Actually it's you that doesn't give a shit about the young people.

The young people want Bernie. They voted overwhelmingly for him. It was something like 4 to 1. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

It was old farts like you who are too stuck in their ways and afraid of change that voted for MS. Corporate Status Quo.

As for being a revolutionary, there were two revolutionary candidates running. Bernie, and Trump. All the rest were status quo establishment types. Well, except for Cruz who is a psychopath. The way I see it, Trump is the last revolutionary left.

I do like giving shit to people that have it coming.

And everybody that supports Clinton has it coming.

And now, that includes Bernie.

Why Trump is uniquely unqualified for office, and will be Putin's door mat to the White House.

Trump tends to follow his gut with inadequate information. This makes him impulsive and prone to costly errors in judgement. He accepts criticism poorly if at all and anything that offends his self image will almost invariably set him off and cause him to impulsively over-react. His primary motivations are financial and anything that supports or promotes his self image, and he will always react to defend that self image. Almost anything outside of his immediate family (if this is an exception) is secondary to serving his inflated concept of himself, everything he values or does, including his family, serves this one and only end. He will say and do anything to sell this successful image of himself, relying on anything he says or does in that endeavour is risky at best and foolish at worst, as has been repeatedly demonstrated with the results of many of his failures to deliver on his promises.

He is the living embodiment of pompous narcissism, if I need to reiterate the obvious. His success in selling himself as a Presidential candidate will be the literal crown jewel in a career serving his resume' as a heavily redacted public image of financial "success", sold as something that it clearly is not, and that cannot/will not translate into political competence.

First of all I don't think he is nearly as bad as he's made out to be.

The establishment wings of both parties are scared to death of him and they and the corporate media, both on the right, and what passes for the left, (it's not) have been on a non stop crusade to character assassinate him ever since he became a serious contender.

And whatever his faults may be, they pale in comparison to Clinton's.

But the bottom line is, you guys had your chance to support the right person for the job, and you blew it and nominated a loser instead. The die is cast now babies, and there ain't a goddamn thing you or I can do about it. Trump is going to be the next President of the United States and may God have mercy on you because I won't.
