Two more days to enter the Secret Santa!
Entries must be in by midnight on November 29th. We're kicking off the 2024 Secret Santa! Exchange gifts with other monkeys - from beer and snacks, to bike gear, to custom machined holiday decorations and tools by our more talented members, there's something for everyone.
I find the whole idea of ivy's to be insufferable, more so the 'minors'. Any former or current UVA student I meet who refers to UVA as a public Ivy gets the douche tag applied.http://www.usnews.com/news/blogs/washington-whispers/2013/09/23/ted-cruz-only-wanted-study-buddies-from-princeton-harvard-and-yale

Christie also suspended campaign. Of course it doesn't matter when two terrifying candidates leave and only terrifying candidates remain.
Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out, you fat piece of shit.
After listening to both Sanders' and Trump's speeches last night, I was honestly shocked at the contrast between the two; one humble and focused, mostly on what's next ... and the other self congratulatory, bloated and mostly empty of any real substance. The first had Sanders barely able to be heard over a cheering crowd and the second met with shouts and clapping that quickly faded as if to say "wait, that's it?" after every hollow insincere thing that Trump said.
How do Trump supporters not get it? Maybe they're all normal and I'm the crazy one??

Welcome to my/our mass hallucination.
Goddamn that is some bullshit. Why are we still using this antiquated crap? This delegate crap and Daylight savings need to be left back in the 18th century where they came from.
Because democracy is an illusion, always has been.
Last think you would want to do is put democracy into the hands of the people, that'd be communist.

nothing new...not surprised....and in other news....the revolution is dead...the congressional black caucus is backing clinton....sheep do what their told.

Unfortunately, this.
For a moment I (naively) thought the momentum and media attention of the past few weeks might change things up for Bernie in a place like SC, but it doesn't sound like he's got a prayer. I did read an article which said part of that is his own doing in that he hasn't actively courted their favor until like right now, but still, its ridiculous that people think the donkey witch is going to go to bat for them.
Congessional Black Caucus PAC. The senator from CA that leads the actual caucus made a very distinct point that they are VERY different things and not the same.
i'm sure he likes to believe that.
john lewis is like ef hutton...
john lewis is not impressed with bernie's civil rights street cred.....
and mr. butterfield....

The black political establishment isn't going to bite the hand that feeds them/makes them relevant. I heard those comments and they were clearly spoon fed by the Clinton's and recited with rubio-esque robotic conviction.
However, their relevance to the public isnt guaranteed. I wouldn't be surprised to see the black community look elsewhere for leadership as evidenced in this election to date.

Why in the f*ck did she cite Kissenger as somebody that she takes advice from? Is he not one of the most hated figures in American histroy due to his extension of the Vietnamese war so Nixon could get elected and instigated wars in Cambodia and the middle-east?
Also, I love Bernie's comment while she was laying into him about being against Obama on occasions: "At least I never ran against him..."

She's shill. ShE RaISeS hER VOIce sO UNnEcEsSarILY. I fucking hate it.
The DNC is at this point, clearly shilling for hillary.
The Bernmeister should let it be known that he holds a third party/independent card. He certainly has enough support to get on the ballot in many states.
The more I pay attention to this election, the more dismayed I become. The whole thing has turned into a circus sideshow made up of no talent hack performers. The only one who seems like they're not a total scumbag is a geriatric revolutionary, whom I am leery of.
Today I'm thinking about just tuning out the whole event as much as possible until Nov and vote against the Repubs. Can't stand Old Pant Suit, don't fully trust old farts who want to tear down the whole system and start over. Mind you some of Bernie's ideas probably should come to fruition, but I fear it's too much to soon. And the Republicans are completely insane and backwards.

I have watched Bernie from up close from decades. Don't get hung up on his expressed ideals - he has proved to be a pragmatist who unites people to get stuff done, both as mayor of Burlington and in the U.S. legislature. I think he has something called wisdom.
He has ideals, but is not an idealist.
I'll take your word for it, but it's more his revolutionist persona that might make him unelectable to a lot of voters over 40. Younger people, on the other hand, are drawn to him for this.
51.5 here.
Granted from America's hat...
Bernie is a bit of a breath of fresh air.
He is not polished till he shines by the marketing droogs.
He does appear a bit wild haired at times - rumpled even.
Kinda like most people I know look after a hard days.
Guess it makes him more real - less cardboard cut out.
But what do I know, I'm just a commie Kanuk.

I am much disappoint, wanted to see him and Trump have a slap fight.
The nation was/is in no mood for Bush the 3rd to reprise the families history of economic and foreign policy disasters....
