5. The bully pugs are making the clerk read the entire amendment. |
|
Even though they know and we know it has no chance of passing.
Sick bastards. They really know how to kick a party when it's down.

7. I wish we were just as mean and effective |
|
We might get something done if we took a few lessons from them in how to use power (and how to be effective without majority power)

Maybe this obstruction tactic will back fire on them.

12. I love Bernie Sanders. THIS is the law we want. |
|
And I love that it is being read in its entirety. People need to hear with their own ears what is being proposed by the THINKING PEOPLE in this picture. Not filtered through the MSM noise machine.

15. Sanders is not a Democrat. |
|
This is DEMOCRATIC underground. We should stand by the President, not an independent SOCIALIST.

With only 84 posts under your belt, are you the best to be lecturing us?
Besides, Sen. Sherrod Brown and Sen. Roland Burris are two Democratic cosponsers.

Against Republicans, independents, socialists, you name it. If you don't have a D next to your name, don't bother.

Who gave you the job as Democratic Avenger? I'm sorry, I know you're new, but you are really sounding nuts here.
You are telling people who have been at DU for years who they can and can not support.

Excuse me,, but are you military or in some public office that requires you to discharge a duty to protect the president? Have you sworn an official oath?
IF not then you don't have a duty, you have a desire.

22. Sanders is more of a Democrat than the majority of alleged Dems in Congress. |
|
Don't come in here as a newbie and try to dictate who and what we support.

27. Yes. Sanders comes from the 'democratic wing' of the Democratic party. |

33. For the last time: Sanders is not a Democrat. He is an independent socialist. |
|
If independent socialists are the "democratic wing" of the Democratic Party, then you would be correct.

32. thanks for playing, junior, but I don't think so |

Thanks for the 2nd grade-level lecture, but I don't really need it, nor will I accept it from you. Go tell someone else all about the way things should be, and about how one should "stand by the President" irrespective of what he does and does not do. You're probably accustomed to your line of argument working with the inbred, the afflicted, and other GOP types, but it tends to hit a wall in those places where critical thinking skills are occasionally applied.
