Who's Shakepear? is that some variety of fruit?

The only movement Bernie is likely to generate will be driven by Ex-lax.
Hmmmm........ I never thought of it that way before.

There are just as many people in this country who will never vote for a rumpled Jew soci@list who was never able to support himself with an actual job until he got a job in government, as there are soci@lists in the electorate ready to launch any "movement" in Bernie's name.
Really, Ike, don't you ever get tired of playing the anti-Semite card? To the extent that people such as you describe exist, don't you think they're more likely to be Republican voters? I certainly do. For most people, Bernie's heritage is a complete non-issue.

Hillary's been on differing sides of too many issues? What idiotic bullshit. Pointing the gnarly flip-flop finger is utter bullshit. I appreciate anybody willing to change their course when they find out they've been on the wrong side of an issue or the wrong course in their management.
You say "tomayto" and I say "tomahto". One person's evolution on the issue is another person's flip-flop.

Quote:
So Hillary is not to be trusted? And when she's the candidate, which of your trusted Repubicans is getting your vote?
I've always said that Hillary will get my vote, though it'll be a less than enthusiastic vote.

Also, I never said that Hillary isn't to be trusted. On the whole, I think she is. What I said very clearly is that the efforts of the right over a 25 year period to demonize her as a liar and a murderer have made voters, even many who support her, less than enthusiastic.

Bernie is dead meat.
Maybe not the nominee but he'll carry a lot of weight at the convention.

Quote:
And you fucking people continue to take potshots at Hillary Clinton for being no different from Barack Obama...the most prolific practitioner of the campaign bait and switch in the political history of the country.
Which "fucking people" would those be? Personally, I like Obama and, with one or two big reservations, I think he's done the best job he could, given the tactics of the GOP.

Quote:
We have an opportunity to have the Supreme Court we have been pleading for since Nixon. And you'd just as well fuck it up.
Any Democrat in the White House gives us that and polls show that Bernie does better in the general than Hillary. Bernie beats all of the Republicans. Hillary does not and, for those she does beat, she beats them by a smaller margin than Hillary does.

Quote:
Staying home on November 8th then, john? Just to spite everybody else for leaving you with Hillary Clinton as your choice?
Nope!

Quote:
Ah...who fucking cares what you do or what you think. Hillary Clinton will annihilate Donald Trump or Ted Cruz. And you be sitting at home with your flaccid pecker in your hand wondering what happened.
Wrong again.

Quote:
And who says I wouldn't vote for Bernie
Not me. You still talking to me?

Quote:
What I don't like about Bernie is that he's a panderer. You think it takes any integrity for a politician to stand up in front of the people and tell them he's going to give them everything and make somebody else pay for it? It's as bad a Cruz continuing to tell people, like he told his ignoramus constituents that he will repeal Obamacare when he knows he can't. But that's Bernie...he's a smart guy, he knows what America is made up of...people who want what they want, who want it right now, and who want somebody else to pay for it. Keep it up, Bernie...you've already proven to me your no different from any other lying ass politician.
You're far too cynical, Alan. It's only "pandering" if it comes from the sort of cynical universe you live in. Personally, I think everything that Bernie says he wants to do is something he really does want to do. I also think that, in the majority of cases, what he wants to do is restore the New Deal and to take it in the direction it was destined to follow had the Republicans started trying to dismantle it almost from day one.

And I got through this whole post without a single "fuck you" or "flaccid pecker" reference! Ain't that something?!
