A message from beyond the grave, to the RepublicanThirdWayOligarch crowd:

[MannyGoldstein]

We will fight; we will win. It's only a matter of when.

1. When I despair

“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it--always.” Mahatma

[Octafish]

17. Always.

Ghandi grokked.

2. Who specifically is the 'RepublicanThirdWayOligarch' crowd? nt

[Dragonfli]

4. It is rather self explanatory

Republicans (You may have heard of them)
The Third way
and the Oligarchs (those large corporations and billionaires that buy policy in this country either legaly or through shady dark money deals)

I mean, all you had to do was read what was written.

[rhett o rick]

5. The Third Way was created by conservatives that found that they could get their

agenda of economic inequality pushed forward if they made some minor concessions to some social justice issues.

Some have that criticism of H. Clinton, who is a 1%'er in her own right. Some think she advocates for some social justice issues and then continues the economic policies that over the last 30 years have seen the wealth gap continue to widen. Goldman-Sachs loves her economic outlook, they even pay her to speak to them about it.

I hope I've been of some help.

6. Yep. They couldn't abide the jebus-wheezers, and when the money came calling

the Clintons and their DLC pals started happily selling the party to the oligarchy bit by bit. And it has never stopped in the last 20+ years.

Blankfein has made it very clear he considers a Jeb/HRH choice a win-win for the plutocracy. How much more clear does it have to get?

[rhett o rick]

7. You would think someone calling themselves a Democrat would easily recognize the warning signal

of Blankfein's words. When Ralph Nader said that Gore and Bush both represented the same people, he got chastised by those that now hear similar words from Goldman-Sachs or Blankfein (they are both considered people).

I will admit that Ralph Nader wasn't totally correct. While Bush represented the quick line to disaster, Gore represented the slower line. But many progressives, as today, don't want either the fast or slow route to disaster. But here we are looking at the prospect of another DLC candidate vs a Bush. Deja vu all over again. Thankfully there is a movement to oust the Plutocratic Oligarchs and their puppets. Go Bernie Sanders. It's do or die.

10. Who, specifically, put the bomp

in the bomp bah bomp bah bomp?

Who put the ram in the rama lama ding dong?

[onehandle]

12. So nobody?

You should self delete and repost in the lounge then.

[MannyGoldstein]

14. There is no Republican Party

There is no Third Way "think" tanks with "fresh ideas"

There are no oligarchs

And because they don't exist, there is no TPP and all the other stuff.

Good point!

Sorry!

[eridani]

15. And I wonder wonder wonder wonder who--

--who wrote the book of love? Apology to Millennials--lots of good music out today I'm sure, but there is just too damned much of it for us old farts to keep up with.

[HappyPlace]

3. Oh, those RepublicanThirdWayOligarchs! They give me chicken skin, I tell ya!

Worse, I get a rash when they're on TV, talkin' about their third-way notions, all oligarchy-like!!!

[cantbeserious]

8. No Citizen Need Settle For The Lesser Of Two Corporate Evils - Go Bernie Go

[Oilwellian]

Great memories and hoping for more.
