This is what the attacks on Bernie made me do today. I hope you all are pleased with yourselves. (I also needed some practice on Adobe).

This one is for the superdelegate line that Hillary bragged about in the debate and the Delegate posts about Bernie trying to switch delegates to represent their local voter's will or Sander's supports calling and pestering the elected officials because it is not fare to have to deal with the people you represent.

This is for both 1040gate and the HRC camp narrative on not letting voters register less than 6 months before and blocking Independants

Hillary on tearing down the party. (also fits her aggressive military stance)

Popegate

Taxgate

Good, bad? Opinions? It was the best way to blow off steam, and at times these can get so much more across. (I will finish my grave digger one later).

1. You could have a promising future in meme creation

[northernsouthern]

2. I do love them.

They are far more bang for the buck since they take so little work compared to a full video or political cartoon.


And if any HRC fans don't like them, just know your group's negative attacks made me do this. You want Bernie and Hillary on a Unicorn, stop all the "whatever"gate spamming!

3. What isn't "fare"

is a campaign strategy aimed at overturning the results of elections and installing a politician in power against the electoral will of the majority. The campaign's plan involves flipping earned and super delegates so Bernie can win while still receiving millions of votes less that his opponent. That is an attempt to subvert electoral democracy.

Super delegates are not all elected officials. And for those who are, I bet any amount of money that most calls come from outside their districts.

What this shows is acknowledgement that Sanders cannot win on the merits and his supporters feel perfectly entitled to overturn an electoral process to install Bernie in power and rule over the majority. Of course they will not succeed, but it shows precisely what those of us who value electoral democracy and equal rights are up against. It also exposes as empty many of the campaign slogans repeated for months now.

State election law is now an "HRC narrative"?

The excuses are endless. There are ways to change state election, laws but it requires organization and concern beyond one politician's career.

[northernsouthern]

5. Ah, what you did here is put too much wrong in your reply.

So you say earned? I assume you are talking about the large sums of money the HRC camp and the DNC laundered at the start of the election, since that is the only earning I know of, since they are not won by votes. They can vote in person once, and then vote a second time as a superdelegate. One of their votes is worth between 20,000-60,000 people depending on the breakdown of the state. That sounds unfair at best.

As for elected, yes they are, as for not in our district, yes they are. We have a Governor, senators, and legislators all in my area, a state that went 71% for Bernie, they are going 100% for Hillary, that is hundreds of thousands of votes they are subverting. Also I know they are in our district because I voted for them and I visited them in Washington.

As for millions of votes, the plan involves leveling the superdelegates so only the people's votes count. As for caucus level issues if that is what you are talking about, the DNC has been sending out bad information to people, Bernie's people know not to trust them and know how technology works so they get out the message fast. Oh and our party is suppressing our votes, they are tossing independents and relying on the rigged RNC states to toss youth votes too.

You reminded me I have to do a HRC aluminum foil gif too,

[beam me up scottie]

8. Well said! "You reminded me I have to do a HRC aluminum foil gif too"

That one is long overdue!

[BainsBane]

13. You assume wrong.

Earned delegates refers to those determined through primaries and caucuses. Devine has announced they plan to try to flip those, whereas Weaver has decided that he alone gets to overturn the rules of nomination that have been voted unto place by elected delegates.

Peoples votes do count. That is exactly what Bernie's problem is. As much as they might like "Southern" votes discounted, that's not how it works. Everyone gets a vote, including the women, people of color, disabled, and elderly who tend to favor Clinton. Bernie would have to earn a majority of earned delegates to make a case for turning super delegates, and he is no where close to that. That you all are even focusing on that rather than voter turnout for upcoming primaries shows what the intention is.

"Your vote" isn't being suppressed. Caucuses are the only contests controlled by parties, and Bernie has won all but 1. SCOTUS stripped away article 5 of the voting rights a act, so AZ cut down on voting places in Latino districts, which happen to favor Clinton. That suppression will be felt again in the general election, since its intent is to help the GOP.

You really should read the US Constitution sometime. Elections fall to the states, which means NY like every other state determines its own election law. Since you've refused to inform yourself on even that most basic fact, naturally it wouldn't occur to you that changing that law involves long-term organization directed at the state legislature. Of course, that requires caring about something other than Bernie and the persecution complex his supporters have carefully cultivated.

[beam me up scottie]

14. LOL.

[northernsouthern]

15. Oh I rember your lies.

This was the argument that got me blocked from the Hillary group. I asked for sources in the earned delegate flip...and I got banned. Did you have the link my friend?

[BainsBane]

16. I have posted sources on this repeatedly

They are even in my journal. http://www.ibtimes.com/bernie-sanders-fantasy-campaign-hopes-win-hillary-clintons-pledged-delegates-unlikely-2338452

Perhaps you ought to try a simple google search before you start hurling insults? Or simply ask for the source without the insult. I always comply with such requests when I read them.

[northernsouthern]

17. Lol, wow I got a source...

Perhaps that is why you never posted one before, it is old, biased, and not correct. I have yet to see an article quoting them. They have been saying Super Delegates. Republicans don't have those...so yes he is right then can switch, but the others can not switch unless it become brokered and then it is anyone's bet.

BTW, I did do a search and found proof of what I said but not of the other, maybe that is why they didn't post last time.

[BainsBane]

19. Here are the sources I never posted before

http://www.democraticunderground.com/~BainsBane

You clearly have no idea who you are talking to and continue to malign me without even looking at my journal. My prior post was a only a couple of sentences long. It made clear I provide sources when asked (if I read the response) and that you need only look to my journal for more sources. You refused to do so and again return to personal attacks rather than engage in the subject matter. Your effort at obfuscation is weak. The facts are clear, and they show absolute contempt for democracy and voters rights, an effort to impose rule by a privileged minority over an electoral majority made up of the subaltern. That is what you seek to protect by pivoting to me using a weak distraction based on demonstrably false claims.

Clearly trying to have a substantive discussion with you is a waste of time. I won't be reading your responses. You are welcome to look through my journal for sources on a variety of issues related to the campaign, but I think we know full well that the entire ethos you promote depends on eschewing evidence.

[northernsouthern]

22. You should have voted in the Colorado Straw poll.

You are really good at grasping for them...
Your journal is just a diatribe of rants. The EC thing? Really? You are going after the candiate with donations from the working class, not the one who is in trouble for not exposing her shell corporation money?

4. Those are FABULOUS!

I'm sure the resident wet blankets will be along to try to dampen your enthusiasm but just ignore them.

[northernsouthern]

7. You're welcome

They just reminded me I forgot one of the gifs I was going to do.

[pat_k]

6. Very fun!

[imari362]

9. Those are good.

I wish I could do those, I have some ideas but zero talent or patience.

[northernsouthern]

10. Gifs are far faster

But simple memes are the easiest. Just use gimp if you don't have photo or on of the others, plus it is free (but it is not sure user friendly...so the time issue would not make it worth it).
https://www.gimp.org/

But thanks for the nice feedback.

[imari362]

11. You're Welcome

I tried gimp some years ago, I couldn't catch on....I am so lame at that kind of stuff I can't even use "paint"

Thanks anyway

[northernsouthern]

12. It's not you on gimp.

I have done a ton of work on photoshop, illustrator, AE, Maya, etc...but Gimp is pure evil...but it is free, and if you can figure it out for a simple thing it is good. I use it it to create button maps for webpages and it is good, but man it took a week until I got it.

[passiveporcupine]

26. When you have time,

Please correct Deleware to Delaware.

Good gifs!

[northernsouthern]

29. Good catch. Done.

I learned today that photoshop does not cut and paste text back in, so when I typed super fast, pasted it in to spell-check, and back, it never pasted back. I caught it three in, so I am sure I have done that on a few things.

[passiveporcupine]

33. Nobody has to correct as many errors as I do

I once was asked to make a flip chart for our company president for the next day's employee meeting. I stayed until 2:30 in the morning trying to get it done (they should have asked sooner). Security even called to find out why I was in the building so late.

I made a mistake on a number total and was off by a zero, which made the number off by a huge amount, and he read out loud what I printed (all hand written...no computers in those days), and then someone in the audience caught the error and he was embarrassed. Oh was he mad at me. I thought my job was over. And it wasn't even my job to do things like that...I did a favor for the manager that asked me (the resident artist at the time).

I was so exhausted by the time I finished it, I was too tired to go through and edit it. I never made that mistake again.

[northernsouthern]

35. Lol.

I have made some in one of the few little animations skits I tried, and I had to re render so very much work. Recently I was working on a little html interactive thing, switched the code to html 5 and in placing in the newer code I made, I did it all at once because why not...it didn't work, have soooo much code to look through for the mistake. I put it in a back burner and I am afraid to even look at it.

Also hen he made the mistake was he there, and did he give you the look of death?

[passiveporcupine]

37. I am not sure he saw me in the crowd, but he did NOT look happy

He was typically not a happy man.

18. Mt HRC bar graph, finishing a few more up ...

Last edited Sun Apr 17, 2016, 12:02 PM - Edit history (2)

In respondse to the graph floated by HRC crew on guns form vermont.

[Little_Wing]

20. Good work!

I love doodling around in Photoshop with some of political stuff happening, but have never tried an animated gif. Which app do you use?

[northernsouthern]

24. For animated...

You have to turn on the animation window in the window drop down.
If you open a gif with photoshop or a quicktime it will break it up for you to edit.
If you are making your own, you make a layer for each image set the all hidden and then unhide each image for each frame.
The time is at the base, and speeds that gifs display at vary on each browser (if the time is set to zero some do.2 some do .5 seconds I think)
When you save it you have to save it for mobile web devices and set it to loop or once in the window.

Also the animation window toggle between frame and AE style controls (not as simple but can do way more).

If you have any questions you cam message me.

[Little_Wing]

27. Thanks I will check that out for sure

[one_voice]

21. It's:

Independent & Delaware.

[northernsouthern]

31. Really that too...

I need more rest. Will fix...

[Punkingal]

23. Fabulous!

You have talent!

[Armstead]

25. The Dr. Stangelove one is a classic

I like the one in the tub a lot too...

[dana_b]

36. that's really good

I know some are flipping out right now but it is what it is.

[Buzz Clik]

28. ..

[northernsouthern]

30. Good find,

It is as they reported exactly. Bernie agreed to meet him before they left, they talked with his wife. And it is not political, as in keep me out of this, you are crazy if you think you can pull me in. It was probably an HRC poster asking him for Bernie's taxes.

[Buzz Clik]

32. "Bernie agreed to meet him before they left". Watch it again

You aren't getting the gist of it.

[northernsouthern]

34. I said exactly that.

I think the pope's exact words are...

He knew I was leaving at that time and he had the courtesy to greet me.

This matches exactly with what Reuters, NBC, and the Vatican put out.

The pope ask to meet with him for 5 minutes before he left. And he is saying stop trying to make this political, if you are you should see a shrink. I think the pope just actually called you out on national tv? I would listen to the dude.

[northernsouthern]

38. You know they retracted that video right?

They posted the new version, so you may want to watch since he says something completely different about sanders.

[northernsouthern]

39. A few more, that I forgot to add

My take on the media coverage of the "not qualified" debacle .

And of these for the whitewashing ways of HRc...

[northernsouthern]

40. One from yesterday and today...

After the lady said we would not vote for Bernie if his name was Bernice...

After more calls for Bernie to drop out because he is hurting Hillary, you know the oponent with record low unfavorbility ratings.

Was going to finish my Rick Scott video, but the HRC campaign and supporters have made it hard for me to concentrate on him since they seem to be the greater risk of destroying our party.

[northernsouthern]

41. Did one more today

Thanks to the inspiration I got from some negative HRC Karma filled with Bernie hate furthering the divide.
