Bernie Sanders, The Bum Who Wants Your Money

[93henfan]

Four year old editorial, but the facts remain:

He explained his family couldn’t imagine his “success,” because "my brother and I and Mom and Dad grew up in a three-and-a-half-room rent-controlled apartment in Brooklyn, and we never had a whole lot of money."

It wasn’t as bad as he says. His family managed to send him to the University of Chicago. Despite a prestigious degree, however, Sanders failed to earn a living, even as an adult. It took him 40 years to collect his first steady paycheck.

Sanders spent most of his life as an angry radical and agitator who never accomplished much of anything. And yet now he thinks he deserves the power to run your life and your finances -- “We will raise taxes;” he confirmed Monday, “yes, we will."

The only thing he was good at was talking … non-stop … about socialism and how the rich were ripping everybody off. “The whole quality of life in America is based on greed,” the bitter layabout said. “I believe in the redistribution of wealth in this nation.”

The choice in this election is shaping up to be a very clear one. It will likely boil down to a battle between those who create and produce wealth, and those who take it and redistribute it.

Aren't those one and the same anymore? Just whose wealth gets taken and who gets it.

Now this....is some solid satire.

At least I hope.

I said a hip hop
Hippie to the hippie
The hip, hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it out
Bubba to the bang bang boogie, boobie to the boogie
To the rhythm of the boogie the beat

Now that he's ahead in Iowa and New Hampshire and has pulled even in Cali, you'll see the establishment unleashed from both sides.

She's right.

So a bunch DC bubble politicians don’t appreciate his principles and honesty.

And that’s a bad thing how?

Iowa is going to be interesting. I'm seeing some D's on twitter talk about Biden's poll numbers and how much of his support is the over 65 crowd. Bernie's support is from the younger voters. If the weather is shitty on caucus night the old people won't go and Bernie could get the upset.

I'm trying to decide if I want to be a D for a night and go the D caucus to watch the shitshow (and caucus for Bernie).

Yup, unfortunately Bernie is being a pussie and apologizing for his surrogates calling our Bidens corruption.

I'm not voting for anyone over 70 this time around. Of course, that means my protest support of Jill Stein is at an end, but I'm okay with that, she was kinda weird anyway.
