"I'm a Bernie backer and I refuse to support Hillary" from The Hill

This is one RIGHTEOUS rant By Shawnee Badger!

Enjoy a taste:

What is so un-progressive about Clinton, you ask?

Where do I even begin?

She won't ban fracking or implement a carbon tax. She formerly enthusiastically pushed the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), once calling it the "gold standard." She is funded by lobbyists for private prisons. She led the charge for violent, deadly and destructive regime change in Libya and Syria and supported the coup in Honduras.

She is against reinstating the Glass-Steagall Act. She is not a transparent politician; if she were, she would have released the transcripts of her speeches that she gave to Wall Street events — which by the way, must have been sheer, utter genius, considering how much she was paid to give those speeches.

She supported the 2008 Wall Street bailout. She supports the former Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (Fla.). She is not only pandering to Republicans for their support, but she is seeking the endorsement of President Nixon's former secretary of State, Henry Kissinger. She favors a federal $12 minimum wage, rather than $15.

She's just getting warmed up, but that's all that fair use will allow me to share... Spoiler Alert: She's voting for Stein.

Give her some clicks and feel free to post badger pix.

Don't be so sure

One of the pearls of wisdom I give my kids is "It isn't surprising that men sell their souls; what is surprising is how little they get for them."

But Hillary is putatively female

so her selling price will be much higher than her worthless soul's value. War. What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.

Read some analysis somewhere yesterday.

When she is campaiging she uses feminine language. When she is in office she uses masculine language. Since what she she does is what you have to look at re what she believes, believe the masculine language.

Here is another article telling people to quit bullying him to

Vote for Hillary.
It's the same comment that people can n DK write all the time too. If you don't vote for her and if Trump wins then it's the fault of the people who didn't vote for her.
This man has a great comeback for that silly argument.

And I feel the same way. Voting for Hillary is giving her my permission to commit more war crimes against people who have not threatened us. That's why I didn't vote for Obama the last election. Besides his going back on almost every campaign promise, he is killing people in over 7 countries that have nothing to do with the war of terror. And to get around calling these deaths unacceptable, he decided that any male over the age of 16 was to be determined an enemy combatant. That is some twisted logic.

You know what is crazy about this conversation? I am not voting for Trump, yet you somehow want to hold me responsible for what happens if and when he gets elected. At the same time, however, you are actually voting for someone who is now backed by every war criminal in the Bush/Cheney war crime syndicate — and with good reason given her history of destabilizing countries as Secretary of State — yet you seem to think that you deserve no blame for the war crimes that will be committed under a Hillary presidency. You talk about civil rights, but what about the children below who are suffering in a way that no children should ever suffer? Just F them because you’re scared? That’s completely vile and beneath you, and I think you should be ashamed of yourself for trying to bully a good-hearted and kind person, who did everything he could to get a strong candidate elected only to be cheated by the corrupt DNC, into voting against his conscience for someone who will almost certainly bring much more suffering into this world than she already has.

I'm not

a bernie backer anymore.
I fell for the hope and change again. And once again, I fell for a candidate that promised more.
Then he fell in line with the status quo.
Bernie is as dead as the party he chose to back. His ideals have been washed away. His support is no longer required.

Regardless of the path in life I chose, I realize it's always forward, never straight.
