After watching what the chairwoman did, and learning the backstory of stripping people of their voice. Then seeing all the talk about violence that didn't happen, and watching the Hillary Gang babbling on and on about how scared they are. Then watching CNN babble on non stop about the "fear" of violence at the convention. Just one pile of slime on top of another. All of it adding up to what a waste the HRC Campaign has been, and how they don't really give a rat's ass about fairness, truthfulness, or justice. They just take, and watch the media spin their narrative all day long. Like part of the campaign it seems to me.
Point is I will probably not be voting for Hillary. I decided after watching CNN, and Barbara Boxer go on, and on, and on about ZERO VIOLENCE.
Screw them, the oligarchs they work for, and they press that carries their waiter.
I think this Nevada thing will cost Hillary the election.
It cost Hillary my vote.
I will be writing in Bernie Sanders, and to hell with voting for someone (and their surrogates) that makes me want to vomit.
Now go ahead and blame Bernie. Like he ever had a chance against the corrupt establishment, and the billionaire owned media.

(1,926 posts)It was Boxer babbling her BS about how it was somehow Bernie's fault.
It's part of the strategy. Put up a popular Democrat, have them trash Bernie, and then cry foul if he pushes back.
The entire HRC Campaign is a pile of crap.
She will not get my vote.

(24,780 posts)Roberts Rules Of Order. Why is the violence HRC's fault? Why are thousands of harassing and threatening texts and phone calls Hillary's fault? Why do Sanders people go all victim when things don't go their way??

(1,926 posts)There is more to it than Robert's Rules of Order and a bunch of people who are, and have been ignored.
The entire campaign is slime, with the media pulling for her the whole time.
Get some popular Democrat to trash Bernie, and then cry foul when he pushes back.
Counting super delegates before the first primary vote is even cast.
Pushing the narrative Bernie can't win, it's hopeless 24/7.
This latest action by the girl with the gavel is going to cost Hillary the election.
All I am saying.

I have been watching CNN off and on today and it makes me sick.
They are so scared of "violence" at the convention.
After shoving the least popular candidate in my lifetime down my throat, and trying to guilt me into voting for her.
You know, the one that gets her paychecks from the most evil Wall Street scum ever born.
The days of Democrats selling their souls for campaign cash is over.
The Third Way, DLC (mindset), Warmonger, Coal Loving, Oil Loving, corrupt gravy train is starting to find out what will be hitting them, and they don't like it.
Handing off 20 trillion in debt to our kids with a collapsing planet.
It is not all the fault of the Mean Old Republicans, and too many know it.

(14,522 posts)But new audio obtained by CNN shows a senior Sanders aide -- on the eve of the Nevada convention -- encouraging the senator's supporters try to "take over" the convention, change party rules and continue the "revolution" that Sanders has long campaigned on.
"You should not leave," Joan Kato, the national delegates director, told Sanders supporters in a meeting last week at the Rumor Boutique Hotel. "I'm going to repeat that, unless you are told by someone from the campaign ... that you can leave, you should not leave."

(31,700 posts)If you heard in the mainstream press that Bernie supporters were violent at the Nevada state Democratic convention, you were lied to.
No chairs were thrown. There were no assaults or threats. This video shows what REALLY happened.

(15,805 posts)Why is that, do you think no one notices? I don't care about four chairs, no one care about your chairs. The issue was the disruption, the angry mob trying to take over the convention, the ugly scenes of hate fueled obscenities hurled at everyone who wasn't in Sanders camp, the threats of personal violence and the death threats.
Stay in your fantasy world. Make believe that nothing ever happened. Me, I'm staying in the real world where the news is still unfolding:
The Las Vegas Police Department has opened an investigation into death threats directed at top officials of the Nevada State Democratic Party, a spokesman tells Newsweek.We are investigating that at this time, a department spokesman, Larry Hadfield said in a brief interview. He called the probe an open investigation into some of the death threats made to Democratic office holders that reside in our jurisdiction.
A spokesman for the FBI, which investigates threats to federal office holders, responded with no comment when asked whether the bureau was involved in the Nevada investigation. But a federal law enforcement officials tells Newsweek that the FBI would definitely be able to find a way into that. It would depend on whether the calls were intrastate or interstate and things like that. And of course the U.S. Attorney [for Las Vegas] would have to determine whether they had a viable case to prosecute. There are a lot of factors, but a death threat is something that we could begin to look into.

The cops and the FBI are lying too, so no need to read more.

(14,400 posts)even death threats against a Nevada chairwoman is Hillary's fault.
This incessant whining on the part of people like you makes me sick. You were never going to vote for her in any case.
I can't wait for Skinner to finally call this primary, this site needs a fucking enema.

And pointing out the system is rigged to protect the entrenched is whining?
