Bernie was.

So I googled and got him a story on dailykos, he read it for 3 minutes and declared:

"this is my guy"



I said he was mine too, for now anyway.

Lots of people have not heard of Bernie yet, still.

Much work to be done

There are others especially noted in the Bernie group in case you want to send to people. Congrats on the conversion of your friend to Bernie.

Skip's banishment was the sound of the starting gun for the race held by the groups that keep lists.

They are pack animals and I am aware of offending ppl in at least two separate packs. I think it is because I am not much of a people person and people hate it when you tell them the truth they most hate to hear. I tend to find that truth and mention it to them because it is also the truth they most need to hear.

Someday I will learn to stop doing that, until then this is how I survive the purge seasons, not posting or posting very little.

I dared to speak the truth in a thread and every post of mine in a twelve hour window was "coincidentally" alrted on within a one hour period, only one of them stuck 4 to 3, but the pack is upon me and I have to lay low. When they alert on the graphic and this post, even if both are successful, I will only have three hides so I should still be OK today.

Until voters vote based on policy, we're going to be frustrated...

You can’t say that out loud!


What the heck is he thinking? Someone needs to explain to him how things work.


There’s isn’t going to be any cushy banking gig in your future senator.

Not So Sincerely,

The Oligarchs.
