In reply to Bernie calls for a revolution

Bernie Sanders got on the political ferris wheel, and now feels like his ride is being cut short. The Carny operating the ride wants him to get off and he hasn't even made a complete circle. Bernie wants a full revolution, not a half-circle! Bernie got a ticket to ride and now he's being told he's just a day-tripper. Bernie says he wants a revolution, but ... if goes worshipping pictures of Chairman Mao, he ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow ... he's got to free his mind instead. So, let it go, Bernie, let it go. Just remember, a revolution is just a circle that you find in the windmills of your mind.

I see your ability to misconstrue something remains unmatched.

Sanders is absolutely wrong

In reply to Bernie calls for a revolution

Sanders is absolutely wrong to imply the super-delegates should reverse the will of the Democratic primary electorate and give him the nomination. It is hypocritical in the extreme given his earlier criticism of the super-delegates as anti-democratic. It won't work. If it did work, Clinton's voters would rightly be waxing wroth and many wouldn't vote for him thereby jeopardizing Democratic chances to retain the White House.

Yeah she's made an awful lot of bad decisions. Even when each is identified by one word or a phrase, they add up quickly.

In reply to Bernie calls for a revolution

As you well know, Ocean Kat, Bernie Sanders is not a leader of anything. He has been in Congress for more than 2 decades and he has not authored one bill, organized one coalition to push his supposed issues, or even joined other coalitions championing those same issues.

He witholds his "aye" votes for anything that is not explicitly in agreement with him, thereby losing many progressive compromises (because compromises are evil -- just ask the tea party)

No, Sanders is no more interested in governing than is the Tea Party. He doesn't want the Democracy we have. And the fact is THAT HE CANT CHANGE IT. He knows that, so who is he bullshitting? A bunch of college students with no real-world experience who think he will give them free college?

I'm done giving Bernie a pass. He is dishonest, or hooked on the money he is getting. One or the other.
