Bernie Sanders, CNBC and other news media outlets had some fun at Trump's expense when he said in front of the cameras "my friend from Australia cause you have better health care than we do."

I have written in the past, via comments, that if we don't start learning how to prevent the co-option of our movement, we are toast. In addition, we must have a reliable way to get that message out: a vehicle if you will.

All you need do is look at history. TPTB, regardless of party affiliation, seem to always learn from their mistakes because they are greedy sociopaths/psychopaths. Their primary need is to be dominant. Whether it is having more money and/or power than 'name your deity' over those they deem to be less than, we must remember it is their prime motivator.

That's from an editor at Ms. the feminist magazine.

Earlier this month Maine Democrats held a meeting where onetime Democratic state Senate candidate Richard Fochtmann decided to tell a joke.

I've been posting essays about the growing progressive insurgency in the Democratic Party, and how Bernie Sanders has been out in front on this.

There are few who will deny the similarities between Donald Trump and former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi.

Perhaps the all-time peak of Democratic misrepresentation was when President Wilson got America into WWI after campaigning on how he kept us out of the war.
However, the present Democratic Party is trying to rival that level of misrepresentation.

Remember when neocons were hated and vilified by Democrats? It wasn't that long ago that Democrats considered neocons to be the worst of the worst.
Well, those days are over.

It's not surprising that the news media loved Trump's new pointless war against the Syrian government.
