Pathetic, I know.

I don't see anything that would be flaggable, but that doesn't matter to them.

I do wonder if anyone will pull some racism weirdness since $hillary used the phrase about black youth. That would actually be funny though, because they'd be admitting that the horrible skank said it.

I can't look anymore. I'm just playing Ry Cooder's

(Hey Poligirl, good to see you here.)

And I'm glad you posted it OT.
The usual suspects came in to flame Bernie and his supporters, but had no problems with what Rendell said.
I flagged the guy who called GS a jackass. Another new member there that writes shitty comments and gets recced.
Personal attacks are only bad when they come from Bernie supporters.
As I have mentioned before, everything that was bad when the republicans were doing them are fine now that it's a democrat doing them.
That's some pretzlelized logic

Glad you "bumped" the then current diary off the top of the rec list. Apparently all the world problems have been solved and now the only problem is where Kos sticks his rec button.

But to go along with that stupid diary, that same diarist said in a comment there recently that no one ever comes to this site.

Someone called Rendell a jackass. I wholeheartedly agree with them.

What if Rendell and the DNC were more accommodating regarding the "issues", would that make Sanders supporters vote for Clinton? Appears to me there's a lot of Sanders supporters and they all won't act the same on this. I'd guess over half will vote for Clinton but there will be a sizeable percentage that will not no matter what people like Ed Rendall say because it's Hillary Clinton, a war criminal we're talking about in the end. For many it's not really about the Democratic party, it's about Hillary Clinton. If Sanders wins the nomination the Sanders supporters will gladly vote democratic party for President. If it's Clinton, there's going to be a split.
(Hi poligirl

having been born in Kenya or something is much more reprehensible than, say, a lie about Iraq having nuclear weapons that leads to millions of people killed or displaced.

Or that talking about using torture is much more reprehensible than, say, violating international treaties by shielding torturers from prosecution, arguing that critics of torture are being “sanctimonious.”

I don’t know how to begin to talk to people whose priorities are that warped.

I think Oregon will surprise Donald Hillary.

In Oregon, there's been a race to register as a R or a D so that you could actually vote for Bernie.

It's a closed primary here. Just saw this in the BS rag called the Oregonian. 110K some kind of record.

I could go up to Cleveland for this shindig just so I could drool on someone, eat with my hands, or... you know belch like rolling thunder.

But I ventured back into the hellhole of N/E Ohio for the last time when my Mom passed away. Cleveland and today's Democratic Party. What a pair.

Wretched place, trolls got the first comment; descended from there.
If for no other reason I hate going there now because that site is such a pig. I have Google fiber and it takes FOREVER for pages and comments to load.
Once this is settled I'm dumping that dump for good. What a shame.

but I am stupid to have twittered it from the dailykos site and not from here.

Okay poligirl... you got me to go over there! (gryn) Tipped and Recc'd and stayed long enough to laugh at and T&R the pootie diaries, as well as the ones on the "Beast" wildfire. I have a friend (actually, an old beau) who lives in Edmonton, so I've been watching this one from the beginning.

So the 3rd way has doffed the FDR mask they have been hiding behind and donned an Obama mask.
Shutter.
My family was Democratic with Jackson, Republican, from the civil war up until FDR, when the Democrats essentially swapped philosophical places with the Republican,
A label is not policy and belief in policy is what we share and what holds up together.
I believe we have a more effective voice if we go Green together, IF BERNIE DOES NOT WIN THE MOST PLEDGED DELEGATES, WHICH HE STILL HAS A GOOD CHANCE OF DOING, rather than voting for Trump, or sitting it out.
.
We can disburse or we can wheel in formation and fight on as Greens.
Bernie gets AT LEAST 40% of the 28% who call themselves Democrats.
He gets 70% of the 42% that are independents.
That is like 10% plus 28% which means that it is likely he would get 38%
in the general. If Hillary and Trump split the rest, Bernie wins a plurality and the issue goes to the New House, (but the Old House can still try and muck it up.
Each state will get one vote, So we need to show enough strength for 26 states to vote for Bernie to get him elected president.
It will make it crystal clear that they care not a fig for the people if they vote for the Hillary just because of the Democratic label.
If they DO they will find themselves facing SERIOUS Green Congressional Candidates their next time out.

Under the terms of the 20th Amendment to the Constitution, the newly elected House of Representatives, which took office on January 3, will then vote to elect a President. Under the 12th Amendment, Congress is required to choose from the three candidates with the highest total of electoral votes from among those receiving electoral votes. Since under this scenario, only Romney and Obama receive electoral votes, the House would have to choose either Romney or Obama.

Under the terms of the Amendment, each state has a single vote, which is determined by how a majority of that state’s Representatives vote. This means that both Alaska and California would have the same one vote, and 26 votes would be necessary to elect a president.

Because of the 20th Amendment (adopted in 1933), those who vote would be the individuals who were elected to the House of Representatives in November 2012. Unlike the situation in 1800 and 1824, the only two times that the House has actually selected the president, the outgoing Congress no longer chooses the President. (but they will assuredly throw a fit and try)

The road is long and not easy at all, but at the end of the day, do you want your grandchildren to remember you as a fighter or as one who went along.

This is much appreciated and needed. Thanks.

(imagined conversation between a child and her mother) Mommy, someone at recess told me Hillary Clinton called kids like me superpredators and then this guy that works for her, Eddie Randal, said mommies like you that support Mr. Sanders need to be brought to heel. Am I a Superpredator? Are you?

Good one! I've been gardening for the last week or so so I missed this on Sunday. Went over today and reced and tipped it. Those people over there are so stupid. Loved how they call liberals 'purist' and then turn around and call the same lefty purist's RW Republicans. Doesn't it occur to them since HRC is going after the Bush list that their candidate is a real Republican? They are as pig ignorant and ass backwards as the RW teabagger's they fear and loath.

They could care less about what The Mad Bomber is going to do once she is crowned. Anything including starting WW3 and bringing us all to heel for Goldman Sachs/Koch Bros. as they are pragmatic and rule the world. The disconnect from reality is hard to read. Maybe they really believe Axelrod's world as we find it is not only inevitable but good.

They are not Democratic loyalist's but authoritarian loving royalist's. Not to mention that this rigged so called primary is a farce of democracy. It's dirty politics and she is gonna win. Just reading the comments made me want to vote for Trump so I had to log off. Back to digging in the dirt if I can get my aching muscles to comply. See you around.
