Silly Season in full swing!

[Bernin4U]

Studying the candidates' actual platforms? Why bother? All ones needs to do is look at the media (or even just GD-P) discussion on any given day.

-Premature, top-down endorsements matter far more than regulated, bottom-up ones.

-Bernie doesn't support PP because he called out their sham endorsement.

-Bernie doesn't deserve the black vote, because he won't make reparations part of his platform.

-Dems don't do middle-class tax increases, even when it's a net savings for the consumer.

-Following DNC rules only matters when it's convenient. Calvinball is fine, if the situation calls for it.

What excites me, as with Most Things Bernie, is that all of this shark jumping is likely not going to contain itself to the presidential race.

I think a lot of true stripes are being revealed, and we're in for a lot more than just a new occupant at the WH.

Interesting times.

1. Hillary's campaign is based on lies.

Lies about her positions, lies about her opponents, lies about her opponent's supporters.

2. But it's the reactions that are so obvious

One needs look no further than the blatant lack of logic being used to try to support them.

You could be an alien who just arrived, and have no idea about the histories or positions of the candidates. But the spinning and fallacies thrown out make it immediately apparent.
