this ain’t our grandparents’ D party anymore!
not by a long shot!

its taken overy by communists and nazis and all sorts of additional anti-American, anti-Christian, anti=Semitic rabble

and it seems like each candidate tries to outdo the others with immoral or anti-American, etal rubbish statements

no decent human being could possibly vote for these evil people, and certainly no good Christian or Jewish believer

its both a crying shame for USA, and dangerous.. we need to keep very very close watch on them, very close

Given material to improve their infrastructure, the “Palestinians” used it to build tunnels to attack Isreal.

So Bernie just said we should get a quid pro quo for American aid money?

Do I have that about right?

Retromenigent. That’s great. I had to look it up, I love it. Very true too in this case. I doff my hat, thank you for the vocabulary expansion. Never a bad thing. :)

It would be cheaper to find a very, very big toilet and flush the money down that way. Geeez.

Maybe he should move to Gaza.
I visited much of the area around Israel but I knew only a fool or a anti-Israel propagandist goes to Gaza

Bernie should be required to go to Israel and speak to the families who have lost loved ones to anti-Israeli violence. He should be required to talk to people who have had missiles shot at them. Then they should send him to Gaza and let him walk about without security while he asks about peace with Israel.

I’m tired of American Jews who turn their back on Israel, and who think they alone know what is ‘social justice’ and what isn’t. It’s truly arrogant and destructive. Bernie is NOT a virtuous, selfless, SJW. He’s just another narcissist who thinks he has all the answers and has the right to dictate how other people live.

Bernie is a full-blown commie. Big loser both professionally and personally.

Bernie Sanders is truly special. He never held a job until he was finally elected mayor of Burlington, VT at age 53. He lived off of welfare and four different women and had a child out-of-wedlock with one. The three marriages did not work out.

In all her years in congress, Elizabeth Warren introduced 110 bills. 2 passed. Cory Booker introduced 120 bills. 0 passed. Kamala Harris introduced 54 bills. 0 passed.

In all his years in the Senate, Bernie introduced 364 bills. 3 passed. Two of those were to name post offices.

It only gets worse. Take a moment and see how bad this guy really is. The following is condensed from Wikipedia:

Bernie Sanders’ father was a high school drop-out, who tormented his family with rants about their financial problems. He blamed society and economic inequality for his plight, though as a white male in a middle class neighborhood, he was hardly among the downtrodden. This was Bernie’s inspiration to take up the cause of economic justice, though he would spend half of his life as an able-bodied college graduate living off of unemployment checks, and the women in his life, between odd jobs.

and transferring to Univ. of Chicago, but this enrollment kept him protected from the draft. He joined socialist organizations and dabbled in far-left communist politics, gaining national notoriety by petitioning the school to let students have sex in the dormitories.

This was before birth control and abortion were legal, when there were still very serious repercussions for women if the condom broke, but that didn’t stop him from crusading against those silly rules that were an obstacle to his own satisfaction. He participated in the 1963 March on Washington, a few demonstrations, and was arrested once, but his activism for civil rights ended when he became obsessed with socialism. NOT “democratic socialism”, but oppressive far-left Marxism.

Bernie married his college sweetheart, Deborah Shilling, and spent his small inheritance on a summer home in Vermont on 85 acres. The shack had a dirt floor and no electricity, maintaining his proletariat credibility, but not impressing his new bride. He refused to get a steady job, so his wife didn’t stick around long, divorced after 18 months.

The Viet Nam war was escalating, and when the next draft was announced, Bernie applied for a conscientious objector deferment. His deferment was denied, so he dodged the draft by having a kid out of wedlock in 1969 with his new girlfriend, Susan Mott, even though he STILL wasn’t working, and had no way to support the child. By the time his draft number came up, he was too old to be drafted anyway.

He continued to subsist on odd carpentry jobs and unemployment checks, and occasionally selling $15 articles, including the one about how women fantasize about gang rape. He still refused to get a steady job to support his child. His girlfriend left him. In 1988 he married Jane Driscoll, and took a cold-war era honeymoon in communist USSR. His new wife supported Bernie financially through his many attempts to win a public office, and shared his radical leftist political views. They visited the pro-Soviet Sandinista Government in Nicaragua known for their human rights violations, support for anti-American terrorists, and the imprisonment and exile of opponents. Bernie blindly overlooked the carnage to stand with fellow socialists.

Bernie’s past, including a brief stint living in a kibbutz in Israel is cloaked in secrecy. (It worked for Barack Hussein.)

They traveled to Cuba in hopes of meeting Bernie’s hero Fidel Castro, but access to him was denied. Bernie Sanders managed not to hold a full-time job his entire life or vote in a single election, until he finally ran for Mayor of Burlington at the age of 40. After several failed elections, he finally won the office of Mayor of Burlington, VT, and eventually a Senate seat, which he has managed to keep off and on. For all of his years representing Vermont, Bernie Sanders passed a total of three bills, and two of them were for naming post offices. He’s a draft-dodging deadbeat dad, a globe-trotting communist dilettante, and a petulant detractor of hard-working honorable Democrats.

His one skill is yelling about how unfair the world is, and how everything SHOULD be.

But he has no plans for how to make it happen, and no idea what goes on in the rest of the world or how to deal with problems overseas. His excuse for not having a foreign policy or national security plank on his platform: “I’ve only been campaigning for three months.”

His socialist friends are bitter about what they see as a betrayal of their values by Bernie’s pursuit of the Democratic nomination. His former wife and girlfriend run when they see reporters and will not speak to the press.

Former employees and coworkers describe him as hostile and belligerent. The people who know Bernie best, cannot stand him.

His supporters cannot explain how he is qualified to be president. All of the Democrats in Vermont’s government endorsed Hillary Clinton in the last election.

Explain to me how any foreign country is ‘entitled’ to so much as a penny of US Taxpayer money?

That money belongs to We the People, not to any foreign power.
