Meanwhile, The Dems Have Their Crazys to Deal With

Democrats Want Bernie Sanders Out Of The Race!


Down Trend
The Democrats are terrified of Bernie Sanders. They love him, they agree with him and they think he would make a great president. But they’re petrified that he will be their nominee because they know very few people with more than three brain cells will vote for a self proclaimed socialist as President of the United States. 
The latest example of this terrified frenzy is Barney Frank’s 1,000-word rant against Bernie. He implores Democrats not to support Bernie. Even though they love him, adore him … almost worship him.
[Bernie] has consistently, forcefully and cogently made the case for a larger federal government role in improving both the fairness and the quality of life in our country, refusing to soft-pedal in the face of declining support for this view in public opinion.
Sounds great! How about Bernie’s stand against the War in Iraq and Hillary’s support of it?
I agree that her position on the war is a legitimate concern for those of us on the left. The question then becomes whether this was a manifestation of a general tendency to support unwise military intervention, or the case of her joining every other Democratic senator who had serious presidential ambitions in voting for a war that the Bush-Cheney administration had successfully hyped as a necessary defense against terrorism. While I wish that she, Joe Biden and John Kerry had not been spooked into believing that no one who voted no would have the national security merit badge required to win the presidency, I regard liberal senators’ support for the Iraq War as a response to a given fraught political situation rather than an indication of their basic policy stance — like Obama’s off-again, on-again support for same-sex marriage. (Yes, I am saying that in deciding whether or not to support a candidate with whom I have disagreed on a fundamental issue, I am more at ease if it was a one-time political accommodation rather than a genuine conviction.)
So if they love Bernie so bad, why can’t they support him? - READ MORE

Bernie Sanders on Unresolved Hostility, Lack of Orgasms


By Emily Zanotti

Literally every day now, I like Bernie Sanders just a little bit better......
I'm obviously not a socialist, but Bernie is keeping Hillary on the run and he occasionally says things I agree with (gun ownership is an individual right, religions who don't want to marry same-sex couples should not be forced to, etc.). He's drawing huge crowds made up entirely of white people (photos of which get great play on Twitter), and he was so clearly off his rocker for most of the middle decades of last century, that it's all but guaranteed that this missive, from Bernie's 1960s health and welfare primer, is only the first in a long line of utterly amazing musings.

Bernie, back in the 60s and 70s, wrote for a left wing alternative rag in Vermont called "The Freeman," where he was free to air his thoughts on everything from nuclear war (we're all about to face death-by-poison gas) to, apparently cervical cancer, which he believed to be a psychologically driven disease, inspired by...ahem...stress.
"Mr. Sanders contributed only sporadically… [H]e cited studies claiming that cancer could be caused by psychological factors such as unresolved hostility toward one’s mother, a tendency to bury aggression beneath a “facade of pleasantness” and having too few orgasms. “Sexual adjustment seemed to be very poor in those with cancer of the cervix,” he wrote, quoting a study in a journal called Psychosomatic Medicine."
This kind of thinking was suuuuuuper popular in the 70s, and lots of now-elderly Baby Boomers at one time cycled through the idea that meeting in large groups and airing grievances over crudite and LSD could cure anything from migraines to male-pattern baldness. Bernie was clearly in that camp, though it remains to be seen whether he tried to implement any treatment plans pursuant to his medical understanding. As I prefer to keep my breakfast down, I'll assume Bernie only thought about, and never tried to cure anyone.

Lately, the right has been concerned with Donald Trump being considered as an actual contender for their Presidential nomination. But the problem with his candidacy may be that his gaffes overshadow what should be a goldmine of opportunity buried in Bernie's deep and rich history of being a lunatic.

Crazy Bernie About to Invade the South


The momentum behind the Bernie Sanders campaign for president is spreading in New Hampshire and is about to invade the south.  The interest in Sanders’ message in South Carolina is so high  that the campaign was forced to move his upcoming speech in Charleston to a larger venue to accommodate bigger crowds.

Recent polling in New Hampshire have convinced many that the support for Sen. Sanders is real and it is pushing Clinton's murky campaign message aside. 

There is a pent-up desire for an authentic grassroots movement among the left in America and ironically a desire to reclaim the country that has been under attack from there boy Barack Obama's and his friends that they elected twice. Are they just seeing what we saw all along, or just falling for another snake oil salesman?
   
The Sanders movement isn’t so much about rejecting Hillary Clinton as it is a response to income inequality and real unemployment (only made worse by failed Obama policies) and  Citizens United ( ya know, the decision that took away the unfair advantage of millions in contributions and influence by Labor Unions to his party) and the political influence of a handful of billionaires who fill the coffers of politicians and activist groups on their behalf (surely they don't speak speak blasphemy against of Mr. Soros, the Hollywood elite and the billionaire social media kingpins).  

No one doubts Mr. sander's beliefs. He's Crazy Hard Core Radical Socialism to the bone. He plays directly to the base, the "give me mine" base that the democrats have led by the nose for decades.

And the south is full of those type of voters.....

Bernie Sanders Condemns Existence of 23 Different Deodorants Brands

Kooky Bernie: "You don’t necessarily need a choice of 23 underarm spray deodorants."

I must say, I'm struggling a bit here to equate underarm deodorant with hungry children or taxing the rich, but then again, it came from the mouth of self-proclaimed socialist and Presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders. So you figure it out....

“You don’t necessarily need a choice of 23 underarm spray deodorants when children are hungry in this country,” Sanders told John Harwood in an interview posted Tuesday. 
Sanders has advocated for returning the personal income tax rate to 90 percent for top earners, as it was in the 1950s. He brushed off the comments from businesses that have called his “revolution” for the transfer of wealth from the top earners to the middle class, similar to Nazi Germany. 
“These people are so greedy, they’re so out of touch with reality,” Sanders said. “You know what? Sorry, you’re all going to have to pay your fair share of taxes.”The New York Times reported that Sanders is fine with reducing economic growth if it reduces income inequality."
This is Hillary Clinton's only competition so far for the Democrat Nomination .........
