What a shock.
Bernie Sanders was a bum who didn't earn a steady paycheck until he was 40 years old. He was a slob who lived in a shack with a dirt floor. He later wrote about masturbation and rape for left-wing rags for $50 a story. The Socialist then wormed his way into politics.
Bernie had his electricity cut off a lot so he'd run an extension cord down to the basement. He couldn't pay his bills.
And today he's running for president so he can take your money and redistribute it.
Investor’s Business Daily reported:
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."
One of his first jobs was registering people for food stamps, and it was all downhill from there.
Sanders took his first bride to live in a maple sugar shack with a dirt floor, and she soon left him. Penniless, he went on unemployment. Then he had a child out of wedlock. Desperate, he tried carpentry but could barely sink a nail. "He was a shi**y carpenter," a friend told Politico Magazine. "His carpentry was not going to support him, and didn't."
Then he tried his hand freelancing for leftist rags, writing about "masturbation and rape" and other crudities for $50 a story. He drove around in a rusted-out, Bondo-covered VW bug with no working windshield wipers. Friends said he was "always poor" and his "electricity was turned off a lot." They described him as a slob who kept a messy apartment - and this is what his friends had to say about him.
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."
So he tried politics, starting his own socialist party. Four times he ran for Vermont public office, and four times he lost - badly. He never attracted more than single-digit support - even in the People's Republic of Vermont. In his 1971 bid for U.S. Senate, the local press said the 30-year-old "Sanders describes himself as a carpenter who has worked with "'disturbed children.' " In other words, a real winner.
He finally wormed his way into the Senate in 2006, where he still ranks as one of the poorest members of Congress. Save for a municipal pension, Sanders lists no assets in his name. All the assets provided in his financial disclosure form are his second wife's. He does, however, have as much as $65,000 in credit-card debt.
Sure, Sanders may not be a hypocrite, but this is nothing to brag about. His worthless background contrasts sharply with the successful careers of other "outsiders" in the race for the White House, including a billionaire developer, a world-renowned neurosurgeon and a Fortune 500 CEO.
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.
His supporters should be thrown into reeducation camps or gassed
What the heck does that mean?
He looks like he smells.
This article will simply bond those who want Bernie even tighter to him. Because if you’d vote for him, then you’re basically a bum with a totally undeserved sense of entitlement
The vast majority of American leftists love their capitalist lifestyle of corporation produced goods while exalting the ideologies of poverty producing socialism. Truly hypocrites and morons enjoying the benefits they rail against. They can all go to that purgatory called Venezuela-— a more fitting reward they truly deserve.
The main qualification for acceptance in Vermont is that there be no way to be considered an outsider. If you're 'one of them', meaning a lifelong resident with a family history in the state, you're golden.
That's all Bernie needs.
Well if somebody like Obama with his background could get elected president then anybody can
His solution was obvious - he shoulda become a journalist. The only thing a journalists is good at is writing about bad news, which is never in short supply.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - T. RooseveltIt is not the critic who counts - except that the critic can make a good living, and gain power, by insisting the “the man in the arena” should be dominated by critics who have no competence in the matters over which they are to have authority.Journalists favor the exact opposite of Theodore Roosevelt’s contention; as far as they are concerned, the operative phrase is, “You did’t build that.”
It means he was stealing power.
Bernie sounds like the Unabomber.
From whom? A neighbor?
yep...... and 47% of amerika is just like him...... USELESS PARASITES
More likely from the building owner. There is an energy bill that owners generally pay, like for hall lighting, laundry room, elevators. I would think if you were operating from an extension cord in the basement, it would probably be from some service area.
Against everyone's shrill, conniving ex-wife.
Right.
Yep, big smile on her face while she's twisting the knife in Sander's back...
can you imagine sitting next to him on a plane? He just looks like he stinks like a week old hoagie
Not much of a difference.
Hillary Clinton: A barking moonbat
Bernie Sanders: A moonbat
Think apartment building with a basement laundry room.
