89, there is no proof that Bernie sold out so did this meme lose it's punch?

BDKKK and CG, if you're truly interested in accuracy and not shilling for Trump and conservative causes, you should be criticizing this meme because it's "bullshit".

Winterborn, sorry for using your meme to make a point. It's funny and made me laugh.

He's not playing thread police. He responded to my post questioning CG's criticism of a meme making fun of conservatives, he thinks a meme loses it's punch if it isn't "accurate." I think he takes them too seriously.

Dude... I can't tell you how happy this makes me
I was unable to hold my nose and vote for Obama the second term - so I voted Jill Stein
I was unable to even consider Clinton or Trump - in fact - I would rather die than cast a vote for either of them
and I'm anticipating a Jill Stein vote again shortly because Joe Biden is a fraud and trump is precisely who I thought he was

:nod:
Wait a second. I thought that Jill Stein had been totally co-opted by the Russians and is now off the Green Party radar screen for this year. :tap:

FTR, Cleets can post all the erroneous memes he wants. There is no rule against them. I've been very clear that IN MY OPINION (that what IMO means in case you're a moran) they lose all their value when they're just plain old wrong.

The Green Party website says that, due (among other things) to the Covid-19 effect on getting petition signatures, the Greens will be lucky to get on the ballot in 30 states.

So inaccurate memes that mock liberals are satire and inaccurate memes that mock conservatives lose their punch? I'm pretty sure that the meme that CG called "bullshit" was just as satirical as the Sanders/TP/water one.

No kidding I wondered the same thing

I can understand you voting for her ... it’s a “the political system is hopelessly broken so why not” vote

But it is a head scratcher for me that Ganny would throw a vote her way when the Libertarian candidate was actually viable (and as beat as I can tell, fairly congruent with what I perceive Ganny to be politically)

And at this stage of the game where both the Dems and the GOP are hopelessly statist... AND we are seeing daily real life examples of both the ineptitude and arbitrariness of a too strong Federal government - and the “best size for us” governance at state and muni levels...

One would think that the LP sits at the brink of a historical opportunity to sell itself as a viable alternative.

But most libertarians are too busy minding their own business and asking to be left alone to bother, I guess

The LP is trying desperately to find a “normal” candidate who doesn’t wear a thong or a tinfoil hat.

I commented on my State LP FB page that one woman candidate struck me as the Marianne Williamson of the LP. At that point, a more experienced party member replied that 30% of ALL Libertarians are the Marianne Williamsons of the LP, as I would find out if I ever attended an LP national convention.

Well, it’s true

Gary Johnson May have been the most “normal” candidate from the LP in years

But we’ve already tried the Joe Biden model ad nauseum for decades now

And we’ve now tried the sleazy real estate mogul too

Gary Johnson asked in his campaign ad... “What have you got to lose?”.... certainly not civil liberties - and isn’t that the biggest complaint of liberals about conservatives, or vice versa?

I find defenses of the Dem Party and the GOP to both be vapid and shallow. There is no reason for 75% of either party to support them. But just today I read a WaPo article about Trump’s tweet about the Iranian provocations in the Persian Gulf, and guess what the comments section had devolved into? People vilifying the Green Party gal for delivering the WH to Trump!

The only thing keeping the LP and the Greens down is the stranglehold the two monied parties have on the cash. Fix that, and we’d see some electoral alternatives.

The two best candidates for President in the last 20 years have been Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. And I am absolutely convinced we will never see another viable Presidential candidate with anywhere close to the same gravitas that they had. The worst complaints about them, outside of political ideology, were completely inane.

All the LP needs to do is put forward someone like and Amash or a Lee

Speaking of Matthew Modine, which movie would they say is his best film? I've got it down to "Vision Quest" and "Wind". I know the latter doesn't get as much pub, what with being a movie about the America's Cup and yachting, but who doesn't tear up a little bit when they bring out the Whomper sail and then start the cheer when Modine's dummy tack works and puts them ahead of the Australian boat? :clap:

I was voting for gender in the last election. I was making it clear that I wasn't voting for Hillary because she was a woman, I just didn't want the first woman President to be one of the biggest crooks we've ever elected to office, and considering the crooks we have elected that's truly saying something. Like I said, I voted "I'm with the OTHER her".

3rd in my book. Great movie, but while he's in it and the lead character, he's overshadowed by the other characters in the movie. Heck, there's times I forget that Modine was even in the movie. The drill sergeant and the fat guy dominate the first half of the movie and then the second half is like an ensemble piece. I feel like Modine is sitting next to me watching the same movie.
