Bernie Sanders.

This is aimed at he left wingers down here. I know there's no way any of you right wingers would support him, and he's probably a no go for AK as well. But what about the rest of you left wingers. In primaries do you support Bernie or Hilary. Personally I'd take Bernie over Hilary or Obama. He's more like the Scandinavian Social Democrats in Europe, and they actually rate higher on economic freedom scale than the progressives we have here at home. Not that I agree with the social democrats, but I'd trade having health care, and education, for getting rid of most of the regulatory red tape, that hinders competition, especial the keeping of new blood from competing with old money.

Look I know I'm weird. But I skimmed this post and when I got to the bold part all I saw was Halle Berry.
So with that said I'll be back in 5 minutes ;-)

You saying Halle Berry, made me think of Tameron Hall who's hotter and I have a mad crush on.

Bernie was the mayor of Burlington, Vermont when I lived there, he is a fucking kook.

Last I heard, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell was tappin' that ass. To each his own, she's hot, but she ain't no Juicy Berry.

To answer the question, yes, I'd go for Bernie over Hillary, burt he's got no shot. Not just too liberal, too old.

You won't get that trade-off with Sanders or any Democrat, you'll get both and then some.

The best thing that could happen to the "Republicans" would be for Bernie Sanders to win the Democrat nomination.

I'd hit all day long over Juicy Berry. How the fuck is Lawrence O'Donnel tapping this?

10,000 show up to see this socialist loon in Madison, WI

Hillary is about as popular as the clap.

JudgeWapner · Jul 2, 2015

Would prefer Bernie over Hillary. I believe him to be truthful at least. But I'm thinking he has no chance.

And Obama did not have much of chance his first time around. Even Soros switches ships.

I would be pleasantly surprised.

Same, but you're correct. No chance. He is an old style Democrat, before the party shifted right, and I'm glad he's getting to bask in the limelight before he goes. He's a good, honest man. His supporters are passionate and enthusiastic, but just not enough of them. If he didn't have the scarlet letter ("S") attached to him, and was at least a decade younger, he'd have somewhat of a better chance. He is showing on a much smaller scale how enthusiastic the Party could have been if Lizzie Warren had got in. She would have been a very legit threat to Hillary.

C'mon, Playa, you know damn well that power is sexy, too, and she no doubt wants somebody who can excite her brain as well as her loins-and the host of arguably MSNBC's most popular show-and, of course, she just happens to work for that same network-would no doubt make for some interesting pillow talk after 'ole Lawrence takes care of bid'ness, lol.

Brucie baby, hows that Dow and Gold at 5,000 looking?

hno: Damn straight the D's shifted right under Clinton, and Obama has continued it as a Corporatist Centrist. Bernie is a Dem of the 60's, 70's in the spirit of McCarthy and McGovern.

How many examples of Bernie Sanders hypocrisy can you find in 4 sentences?

By Newsmachete

We need more games to cheer conservatives in these trying times. Let's play one now. The name of the game is "How many examples of Bernie Sanders hypocrisy can you find in four sentences?"

Are you ready? Set? Go!

On the stump, Mr. Sanders pledges to take direct aim at the wealthy, diminish their power, expose their tax havens and break up the largest financial institutions in the country. He tells working-class Americans that he would fight for higher wages, guaranteed health care, family and medical leave and paid vacations.

“This grotesque level of [income] inequality is immoral.... It is unsustainable, and it is not what the United States of America is supposed to be about,” Mr. Sanders said in Madison.

1) Diminish the power of the wealthy. The wealthy can't arrest anyone or confiscate anyone's money. Who is the real powerful entity that Bernie isn't talking about? (A hint: he works for them.)

2) Expose their tax havens. Companies don't repatriate income from other countries because of high corporate tax rates and double-taxation. They are havens only because American tax policies are so punitive.

3) Break up the largest financial institutions. Is Bernie referring to the Federal Reserve? Because that is the largest and most powerful one there is.

4) Bernie will work for higher wages – presumably higher mimimum wages, which means that fewer people will have jobs, and the costs of everything produced will become more expensive, impoverishing everyone else.

5) Bernie will fight for guaranteed health care. There is guaranteed health care in Cuba and North Korea as well, but that doesn't mean anyone gets treatment. Why aren't Bernie and his staff on Obamacare plans, by the way?

6) Family leave and medical leave laws. Will Bernie be pushing to apply these to the general population, or specifically to his staffers on Capitol Hill?

7) Bernie finds income inequality immoral – the idea that one person with greater ability and who works harder makes more money than another person who doesn't. In a perfectly moral society, we will all make the same amount of money no matter how hard we work and no matter what we do. Now, isn't that moral?

8) Bernie says income inequality is unsustainable, but the economy is sustainable because people with money invest in businesses that keep the economy going. How else does the economy keep going, if not by capital investment from the wealthy? Eliminate them, and then the economy becomes unsustainable.

9) Where did it say in the Constitution that everyone should have the same income? Are you sure Bernie is reading the right constitution?

Well, that's nine examples of blatant hypocracy in four sentences – a new record, even for Bernie.

By the way, thanks to the Wall Street Journal for this fawning piece of journalism. Hard left, corporatists...they are so hard to tell apart anymore.

Liberalism is profoundly stupid and completely at odds with how the world actually works.

Bernie's essay pushing the idea that women fantasize about being gang raped.
