Let me see if I have this bizarro world straight

Whether or not Bernie was or was not invited to an economic conference requires microscopic scrutiny.

But Bill Clinton can claim Black Lives Matter is defending murderers while Hillary participates in a racist joke, and that's just water under the bridge?

LOL. Ok. But, no, seriously, everyone is all about social justice and stuff. Totally full of caring about issues that matter.

I am so glad gay marriage is not on the table this election. I don't think I could've sat through the homophobic parsing that would've required.

But the corporate media won't let that happen to their preferred candidate, no matter what.

They know. They just don't care. For reasons. But don't you dare question their dedication to racial justice or mention how awfully situational that got on the quick.

I don't even know what to say to people who claim to care about racial justice and then tripped over themselves to excuse Bill.

People who actually care show it. And here I am, still waiting for curtain up.

Sometimes, they want what they want and they are going to have a fukushima sized shitfit until they get it. Logic aint going anywhere.

Peanut Butter on your hot dog? Sure, honey. You win. Don't say I didn't warn you.

The mask has really come off since Hillary's meltdown week. They aren't even trying.

I'd almost say they know they've lost already and are just sulking until someone burns the place down.
