Who Is Bernie Sanders?

Can you believe this, people are voting for him

DO NOT MISS PRESIDENT REAGAN'S SENTENCE AT THE END   Interesting but definitely not surprising!   In all her years in congress Elizabeth Warren introduced 110 bills. 2 passed. Cory Booker introduced 120 bills. 0 passed. Kamala Harris introduced 54 bills. 0 passed.   Bernie Sanders is truly special. He never held a job until he was finally elected mayor at 53. He lived off of welfare and 4 different women had a child out-of-wedlock with one and the 3 marriages did not work out.   In all his years in the Senate, he introduced 364 bills. 3 passed. Two of those were to name post offices.   If you want to know what kind of leader Bernie is, go to Wikipedia, it’s a long report.   The following is condensed: Bernie Sanders’ father was a high school drop-out, who tormented his family with rants about their financial problems. He blamed society and economic inequality for his plight, though as a white male in a middle class neighbor- hood, he was hardly among the downtrodden. This was Bernie’s inspiration to take up the cause of economic justice, though he would spend half of his life as an able-bodied college graduate living off of unemployment checks, and the women in his life, between odd jobs.   By his own admission, Bernie was not a great student, starting at Brooklyn College and transferring to Univ. of Chicago, but this enrollment kept him protected from the draft. He joined socialist organizations and dabbled in far-left communist politics, gaining national notoriety by petitioning the school to let students have sex in the dormitories.   This was before birth control and abortion were legal, when there were still very serious repercussions for women if the condom broke, but that didn’t stop him from crusading against those silly rules that were an obstacle to his own satisfaction. He participated in the1963 March on Washington, a few demonstrations, and was arrested once, but his activism for civil rights ended when he became obsessed with socialism. NOT “democratic socialism”, but oppressive far-left Marxism.
Bernie married his college sweetheart, Deborah Shilling, and spent his small inheritance on a summer home in Vermont on 85 acres. The shack had a dirt floor and no electricity, maintaining his proletariat credibility, but not impressing his new bride. He refused to get a steady job, so his wife didn’t stick around long, divorced after 18 months.

The Viet Nam war was escalating, and when the next draft was announced, Bernie applied for a conscientious objector deferment. His deferment was denied, so he dodged the draft by having a kid out of wedlock in 1969 with his new girlfriend, Susan Mott, even though he STILL wasn’t working, and had no way to support the child. By the time his draft number came up, he was too old to be drafted anyway.

He continued to subsist on odd carpentry jobs and unemployment checks, and occasionally selling $15 articles, including the one about how women fantasize about gang rape. He still refused to get a steady job to support his child. His girlfriend left him. In 1988 he married Jane Driscoll, and took a cold-war era honeymoon in communist USSR. His new wife supported Bernie financially through his many attempts to win a public office, and shared his radical leftist political views. They visited the pro-Soviet Sandinista Government in Nicaragua known for   their human rights violations, support for anti-American terrorists, and the imprisonment and exile of opponents. Bernie blindly overlooked the carnage to stand with fellow socialists.

They traveled to Cuba in hopes of meeting Bernie’s hero Fidel Castro, but access to him was denied. Bernie Sanders managed not to hold a full-time job his entire life or vote in a single election, until he finally ran for Mayor of Burlington at the age of 40. After several failed elections, he finally won the office of Mayor of Burlington, VT, and eventually a Senate seat, which he has managed to keep off and on. For all of his years representing Vermont, Bernie Sanders passed a total of three bills, and two of them were for naming post offices. He’s a draft-dodging deadbeat dad, a globe-trotting communist dilettante, and a petulant detractor of hard-working honorable Democrats.

His one skill is yelling about how unfair the world is, and how everything SHOULD be.

But he has no plans for how to make it happen, and no idea what goes on in the rest of the world or how to deal with problems overseas. His excuse for not having a foreign policy or national security plank on his platform: “I’ve only been campaigning for three months.”

His socialist friends are bitter about what they see as a betrayal of their values by Bernie’s pursuit of the Democratic nomination. His former wife and girlfriend run when they see reporters and will not speak to the press.

Bernie’s past, including a brief stint living in a kibbutz in Israel is cloaked in secrecy. (It worked for B Hussein.)

Former employees and coworkers describe him as hostile and belligerent. All of the Democrats in Vermont’s government endorsed Hillary Clinton.

The people who know Bernie best cannot stand him. His supporters cannot explain how he is qualified to be president.

"American freedoms are no more than one generation away from extinction" - President Reagan -

Something to give some serious thought. I watched as every Democratic candidate raised their hand pledging health insurance should be afforded to every individual regardless of their status legal or illegal. Open boarders, yes.

Today with the corona virous and its uncertainty what happens? Could the U.S absorb the cost? Has it changed anyone's perception of open boarders and free health care to all?

Quote from WOLF

I'm pretty sure it's free without insurance also. I'll check Walgreens and CVS for you's.

I'm purty sure it's free when you don't get a flu shot... I haven't had a flu shot in probably 30 years... got the flu once or maybe twice in that time.

The media is confusing me about covid-19. First it's less dangerous than the flu. Now we're all going to die because Trump didn't handle it right. I'm just going to drink bourbon and wait for the stockmarket to hit 20K so I can jump back in.

I Never had the Flu.....And i never had the Flu shot........Maybe back in 1965 in Basic the Army might have snuck one in with the air needles..?...But definitely not after that...

Quote from Bill Martin

Freakin white privilege - you should be ashamed

Hey now, No privilege here, I happen to be white and anyone can join the military. Many, many companies will hire a veteran over anybody else, it has nothing to do with color.

If there are any younger folks reading this, I suggest you join the armed forces. It gives you a sense of pride no other job can match. I also advise you to stay in. If you get out after one term(like me), you will look back a lot, wondering what could have been.

Quote from Bigdog

I did already....you need to pay attention

the storm is upon us

That’s it short and sweet. When you see that tweet the operation has begun....and the fan will be dirty...

You did post that, my bad. Could you please give us here a heads up when the tweet happens? I don't follow Twitter, Facebook, TicToc, Yahoo, MySpace.....

Bigdog I found it. That is a fucked up plan. I guess we will know on 10APR20 if "DJT" on the bottom is Donald J. Trump or Dumb Juvenile Twits.

Also, another suggestion I give to younger folks thinking about joining the military is to pick a career field which will easily transfer to a civilian component.

only good news about bernie is he’ll probably be dead by 2024....

that said I’m a Trump guy up to me a$$......but if he cuts social security and Medicare I’m a bernie guy .....

no other job in private sector you can retire after 20 years....with all the benefits......if you can hack it and find an interesting field to work in.....the service is the way to go.....

no wonder bernie loves socialism.....it kept him alive because he’s a lazy bastard....white trash scumbag all his life.....and he wants your kids to be like him.....he’s trying to justify his lifestyle by addicting them to a freeloader lifestyle on the backs of hard working people.

Quote from Bill Martin

You know I was just bustin your balls right buddy ??? You hear Dem politicians apologizing for white privilege all the time. I think that is stupid - you may be able to choose your sex these days but I’m pretty sure you can’t pick your race before being born and you should not be penalized for it.

I know you were just busting my balls. I laughed. Then I thought about it and thought, "I don't think my life qualifies as white privilege".

Oh..."Union Privilege", My dad was a union electrician(health care benefits), the army is a government job and has many union style perks and now I am at the County in a union.

dems White privilege means working white People are going to pay for everyone else’s free stuff. We will be penalized for being working white people.. that will teach us to want to better ourselves. If we were like Bernie we would be going after rich people’s money much more vigorously...

since white people are technically a minority now....when do I get my free stuff?

So, for those of you here who have been talking about Tulsi Gabbard being a better option than the other Democrat offerings what do you think of this?

Gabbard embracing universal income

Really?
