The Democratic Party Convention
I apologize for the incomplete image but:
Their little sister "Blame someone else" was having a powder room break.
Their brother "It's all a conspiracy" was talking to journalists.
Some are saying the emails were faked, produce the originals I say, why were their not screams of "foul" as soon as they were released and don't tell me that the silence was just to get DWS banished to the Clinton Campaign.
Now we have the President and great DWS supporter saying it was all undercover foreigners n stuff.
Admit your primaries are biased, corrupt and designed to select the establishment candidate that can garner the most money from the 1 %.
Then maybe we can all move on.
I will now vote for someone that is not in either party, up and down the ballot. Sorry Bernie Sanders, Peter Welch and Patrick Leahy time for a change. If you have a D or an R after your name, tough.
To those that whine about letting someone else win and that's just no fair.
Well that's what happens in a democracy when the duopoly is rotten to the core and for that you have nobody to blame but yourselves.
Comments
They've trotted out their feel good rainbow parade...
Done their widows and orphans speech, made up a few bullshit lies, and then blamed everything else on somebody else.
It's a dog and pony show, with fools who think that if they grovel hard enough, they will not be betrayed by the one person who will absolutely totally betray them.
I do not pretend I know what I do not know.
The Leaked DNC Emails Prove The Party Is Rotten To The Core.
Yet they don't waste words trying to deny it. Instead, they say look over there, that russian bully (Putin) is interfering with US politics.
News flash: The source of the emails means nothing to me. The content does.

Mostly, they plagiarized the entirety of Bernie's stump speech
They couldn't get by with the weak platform $Hillary originally spoke about in May 2015. As soon as they saw the crowds and reaction Bernie was getting, HRC/DWS/DNC stole his entire speech by the time of the DNC Summer Meeting in Mpls in Aug 2015, so that when Bernie "endorsed" HRC a couple of weeks ago and again Monday night, he gave his stump speech preceded by "Hillary thinks, believes, wants, etc."
Without Bernie's stump speech, HRC's got nothing with which to "convert" and convince people to vote for her.

Stepford Convention confirmed only thing $hills has got is
"It's Her Turn Now" and "Stay VERY AFRAID of Drumpf."
Despite the Twitter coverup so proud of the #DNCWalkOut and #DemExitNOW. All those folks who courageously took stands throughout the night represent me and the 99%. Expect Jill Stein, beginning today in earnest, to get a massive transfusion of energy, donations and volunteers. Bernie supporters joined her last night on one of many spontaneous marches through Philly.
On my way to make mine now...

Jill Stein will not be taken lightly by establishment Dems
Expect a full legal onslaught on her as happened to Nader in 2004. Looks to me like there is already coordinated and planted stories attacking her.
I am sure glad I cut the cord over a year ago.
I prefer to get my biased information from sources that show most of their bias out front and don't pretend to be the second, third or fourth resurrection of Walter Cronkite, Chet Huntley or David Brinkley.
Sign me up! Where is this place?
Hey! my dear friends or soon-to-be's, JtC could use the donations to keep this site functioning for those of us who can still see the life preserver or flotsam in the water.
Here's one from S4P for the more sci-fi minded.
Personally, this one most reflects the vibe I'm getting from the entire convention.
Love the dropped ceiling/suspended panels and fluourescent
lights! So Roddenberry!

German wire service: Dems closing ranks behind Hillary
Well, even the left-alternative Berlin-based daily "taz" has nothing more insightful to offer than the DPA (German Press Agency) wire service report.
Headlines:
Weak sauce. A German Left that takes Hillary and her neocon policies at face value isn’t much of a Left at all.
Rignt-wing populism is growing in part because nowadays that’s where the critical analysis, desire for change, and anti-war voices are.
I would say that there is a populist surge and only Trump
is giving it a political home. Trump claims to be against TPP and China in the WTO and we can be sure Clinton favors them.
The populist surge is in protest for the declining real wages experienced by American wage earners for the past two generations. It's a natural fit for a leftist candidate but Sanders has quit and the Greens have done little, or I think they have done little, to denounce the class war that is causing pain and suffering among those who have only their labor to sell.
Where are the under 35s and older working class to go? Who is speaking to their pain and loss? Trump is the only one who seems to be and we know that's a sham. So where's a politician with a national reputation who will speak for us from a Left perspective?

The Number Of High Profile Sellouts Has Been Breathtaking
@ShaileneWoodley Did Not Sell Her Soul To The Devil (Aka Hellery). Thank gawd.
Shailene and Susan Sarandon are the only ones I know. Was there anyone else that stayed true to their ideals? (probably one or two more, Rosario Dawson maybe??)
Of Bernie's political supporters, I know Jeff Merkley is now kissing Hellery's ass.
The rest of the sellouts folded like the true wall street whores they are.

BTW, A Big Fuck You shout-out to Sarah Silverman!! Queen of Raunch. Drop your drawers and bend over to receive Hellery's reward. Your comedy sux anyway.

Like when they blamed Nader
Like when they blamed Nader for 2000? oh yeah they proved he was taking votes away from,,,,,,,,,BUSH! Nader is innocent, but they love blaming 3rd party voters for losing elections when it is the fault of the party for picking crap to run against the other team, but both are under the same kind of puppet masters.
We have seen the ugly truth, we are not in a democracy, if we want it, we have to pry it loose from their claw like hands.
So long, and thanks for all the fish

I cheer!
Every time I read that quote.
Thank you!

The letter after the name doesn't mean much
Remember Lyndon larouche? In my own district we have Pramila Jayapal who is a dem and. I'm voting for her.
