Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) spoke at church service in Columbia, South Carolina, over the weekend and attempted to use scripture to push his progressive agenda.

Sanders spoke at Reid Chapel AME and sought to link his campaign and the scriptures by focusing primarily on the need for “justice.”

This coming from a Godless socialist POS.

[dfwgator]

The Devil quotes Scripture, too.

[V_TWIN]

did he develop a southern accent also?

[HombreSecreto]

How quaint - quoting the Ten Commandments (particularly thou shalt not covet...) and then claim the Almighty wants you to do the opposite.

The Dems are truly the political party of Satan.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Justice would be for Bernie to give me his lakefront house.
He has more than one house and I need one.

[V_TWIN]

look out for that lightning bolt old man.

The best example of socialism vs capitalism is the Plymouth Colony. During socialism, it was floundering, after Gov Bradford divided up the land for each family to plant and grow/do with what they wanted, it prospered. Rush Limbaugh has a good account of this he reads each year.

Bernie Sanders preaching at a black church
is sorta like me trying to execute some of the
Temptations’ dance moves onstage. It just doesn’t work.

[bramps]

I had a virtual vision of Bernie at church yesterday.

Then I flushed.

Bernie, the BOURGEOIS SOCIALIST

A part of the bourgeoisie is desirous of redressing social grievances, in order to secure the continued existence of bourgeois society.

To this section belong economists, philanthropists, humanitarians, improvers of the condition of the working class, organisers of charity, members of societies for the prevention of cruelty to animals, temperance fanatics, hole-and-corner reformers of every imaginable kind. This form of Socialism has, moreover, been worked out into complete systems.

We may site Proudhon’s Philosophie de la Misere as an example of this form.
The Socialistic bourgeois want all the advantages of modern social conditions without the struggles and dangers necessarily resulting therefrom. They desire the existing state of society minus its revolutionary and disintegrating elements.

Communist Manifesto pg 49.

When you’re so bad that even the COMMUNISTS HATE YOU...you know you’re effed up.

Karl would’ve spit on you. Uncle Joe would’ve put one in the back of your head and kicked you into a shallow grave old man.

IF he’s going to base this all on the golden rule then I would only say I don’t want others taking my money and I will refrain from taking theirs.

[JohnBrowdie]

lol. I remember years ago when jacques kerry tried this in mississippi; he referred several times to “clauses” in the bible. the lease agreement on my SUV has “clauses”. scripture comes in “verses”.

Halt! Halt! (the stage comes to a halt and the occupants get out rapidly, their hands held high) Gentlemen, ladies, bring out your valuables please. Come along sir, come along. Come along, madam, come along. Oh, is that all you've got ... well, he's got much more than you ... so you'd better have some of his ... (transfers money from one passenger to another, dropping some)... sorry... pick them up in a moment... there's about oh, what, nine down there... so you must have about... oh, he's still got lots... oh you've got what? ... you've got more than he started with... so if I give you some of those (transferring more coins) ... well now, look ... have you got a bit of jewellery? If I give you that one and you have some of his coins (the credits start, superimposed) ... is that another box? Were you trying to hide it? Well, that's nice! Right! Now. I've got a tiara ... you've got one... you've got one of the boxes... you've got one... anyone else got a tiara? Take your hat off! (passenger does so to reveal a tiara)... Oh, honestly, it's absolutely pointless trying to do this if you're going to cheat. It really is awful of you;.. (fade out)

[Track9]

Suck it Sanders. HE ain’t listening to you.

“Justice says that black women should not die in childbirth at three times the rate as white women.”

Not certain what this means. Is he saying more white women need to die? I thought he was of the ilk that there are too many people. We should note that fewer women die in childbirth under free-market systems than socialist systems.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Progressives are people who think “justice” means giving them something they haven’t earned.

I bet if I try hard enough I could warp some piece of scripture to justify sleeping with a different woman every week.

The Bible doesn’t work as well when you go in knowing what you want to think

2 Thessalonians 3:10

For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.

1 Timothy 5:8-9

But if someone does not provide for his own, especially his own family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. No widow should be put on the list unless she is at least sixty years old, was the wife of one husband.
