Thousands Hit Philadelphia's Steamy Streets to Protest DNC
NBC 10 ^ | 7/24/16

Posted on 07/24/2016 3:15:50 PM PDT by aquila48

Thousands of Bernie Sanders supporters are marching down a main thoroughfare in Philadelphia to show their support of him and disdain of Hillary Clinton ahead of the Democratic National Convention.

Chanting "Hell No, DNC, we won't vote for Hillary" and "This is what democracy looks like," the marchers headed from City Hall down Broad Street. Broad is the main north-south artery that leads from downtown to the convention site at the Wells Fargo Center about 4 miles away.

Many carried Sanders signs, and a huge Bernie Sanders puppet was also a part of the march. Sweltering heat hasn't kept protesters away from the streets Sunday. The city is under an excessive heat warning and temperatures were in the high 90s. The four-day convention for Democrats to nominate Clinton for president begins Monday.

I’ve got CBS evening news on the TV. Would you believe there’s NOTHING about the protests? They spent all last week running all over Cleveland, just praying for protests to air.

Whew. It’s sweltering here on the East Coast. A four mile hike in this heat would be s sweat soaker. May the spirit of Frank Rizzo watch over the Philly PD during the course of the convention.

I’d believe it - the MSM is part of the Clinton machine. The coverage this week will be all rainbows and unicorns - just watch.

They’ve taken over several campgrounds here in South Jersey. I imagine the other campers have no difficulty accessing the showers. I doubt the Bernie people use them much.

Don’t forget, they have to start eating a lot of beans for their fart-in.

After the fart-in, it might be Bernie’s brownpants.

I think the Wikileaks of the DNC emails, showing that they were behind some of the earlier demonstrations against Donald Trump, made them backoff during the Republican convention. That’s why there was so little demonstrations in Cleveland. No dirty dem money for organized phony demonstrations.

Wouldn't that be funny as hell if they started chanting that inside the Wells Fargo Center next week? What would Prissy Chrissy Matthews say then?

May the spirit of Mayor Wilson Goode ensure a peaceful outcome of the festivities.
