Nobody fights for the disabled in reality. Its just the parents who have too.

Yuck a reform Jewish woman. Woman shouldn't be allowed to become Rabbis. Less have a political affiliation.

Bernie - the DEMS platform have come together and is now calling for the BREAKUP of the TBTF Mega Wall Street Banks and the cancellation of the TPP - Must insure TPP does not get to the floor of the congress in the lame duck session or ever!!!

Time for US to see the Democratic platform gets implemented by a Democratic House and Senate and a Hillary Clinton presidency.

Bernie: "Hillary Clinton will make an outstanding President and I am proud to stand with her tonight!"

NEWS FLASH:

Global Markets tank 10% tomorrow since the BERNIE REVOLUTION CONTINUES... and is official policy of the Democratic Party... the Tribes Egos know NO bounds tonight.

She understands this, she understands that, and so on and so on... - just because you say so doesn't mean that people who don't feel so will come to feel so.

What do the Dems even hope to gain in this convention? What's the crossover appeal? Trump shored up his republican support and pulled in new voters with the speeches of his kids and his very own speech.

Bernie and the rest of the speakers just sound like the same old stale democrat talking points. Nothing is new. In the other corner, Trump has people cheering for LGBT people at a republican convention! It's unprecedented, and I love it. We really are winning.

Either she is built like a linebacker, or her clothes are from 1980s.

Liz and Bernie wasted the brilliance of Michelle's speech. Well done Dems.

Why isn't she keeping it real and busting this out?

The cunt who is droning on and on about God (whoever she is) is just so awful.

Reform rabbis rarely read Hebrew in services. The trope (melodys) for the Torah is actually tricky to learn. I used to be good at it when I was younger.

Rudy is on Hannity, sounds like he is losing it.

Sanders supporters on twitch created an anonymous Strawpoll after they finished crying over the Bernie sellout moment.
Unsurprisingly,

Trump on Hannity.

His hair is uncharacteristically disheveled.

Obscene country music star Wheeler Walker Jr. trolling Bernie people.

Sanders reminds me of one of my favorite Zappa songs:





Quote:Some take the bible
For what it's worth
When it says that the meek
Shall inherit the Earth
Well, I heard that some sheik
Has bought New Jersey last week
'N you suckers ain't gettin' nothin'


Is Hare Rama really wrong
If you wander around
With a napkin on
With a bell on a stick
An' your hair is all gone...
(The geek shall inherit nothin')

You say yer life's a bum deal
'N yer up against the wall...
Well, people, you ain't even got no
Deal at all
'Cause what they do
In Washington
They just takes care
of NUMBER ONE
An' NUMBER ONE ain't YOU
You ain't even NUMBER TWO


Those Jesus Freaks
Well, they're friendly but
The shit they believe
Has got their minds all shut
An' they don't even care
When the church takes a cut
Ain't it bleak when you got so much nothin'
(So whaddya do)
Eat that pork
Eat that ham
Laugh till ya choke
On Billy Graham
Moses, Aaron 'n Abraham...
They're all a waste of time
'N it's yer ass that's on the line
(IT'S YER ASS THAT'S ON THE LINE)

Do what you wanna
Do what you will
Just don't mess up
Your neighbor's thrill
'N when you pay the bill
Kindly leave a little tip
And help the next poor sucker
On his one way trip. . .
SOME TAKE THE BIBLE. . .
(Aw gimme a half a dozen for the hotel room!)

I am a bit baffled by the DNC platform. Aren't all of these issues the same issues Obama supposedly fixed over the last 7+ years...or not?

Some men are just destined to be viewed with disdain in history or completely forgotten.

Bernie is an old man this was his last chance to make his mark on history in some meaningful way.

Instead he chose the easy route as cowards usually do. Good bye and good riddance.
Liberty Sea 路 2016-07-25 22:48:00 路 #521
Perhaps he would make history if he simply said Vote your conscience Laugh

Total demoralization. This is amazing.

This is BY FAR the best thing to happen to help Trump. Anytime you hear Democrats talking, always be sure to bring up how they fucked over their progressives. The leaked emails proving Bernie was cheated. Sellout Sanders refusing to acknowledge the corruption.

Bernie supporters will overwhelmingly go third-party or Trump, and we have this election in the bag. Just keep up the demoralization efforts. This shit is brutally effective.

The stage set-up at the DNC was so rinky dink compared to Trump's giant titantron at the RNC.

I don't know why everyone keeps calling (((Bernie))) weak and a cuck. The guy's one of the best con artists of the last century.

- Raised over 220 million in campaign contributions from people that supposedly can't afford a meal or condoms.
- Most likely siphoned off millions of that money into his families pocket.
- Got millions of young people excited about this election. Even if 30-40% of these people don't vote for the beast, he undoubtedly brought her a lot of support she wouldn't have had.

This guy is a phenomenal con artist. He's up there with Victor Lustig. Instead of selling the Eiffel Tower, he sold the people socialism.

Watching the reactions of people in the crowd during his speech. The crying, the emotions, it felt like I was watching Jim Jones talk to a crowd before giving them the magic cool aid.

Props you fucking marvelous shyster. I tip my hat.

A good con artist comes out with their reputation intact though. Reputation means a lot. Bernie sacrificed his personal image for some shekels and a private jet.

I'm sure he was in it for the money initially but underestimated the response. I wouldn't be surprised if he only meant to ride this gravy train long enough to get eliminated early on as a candidate and pocket some of that sweet donor cash.

Instead he blew up to become the in thing for progressives. Then he had to keep up the charade even though it was starting to run away from him.
