to get enough votes to steal the election.

This interview where he says this will be two days before he nukes some poor bastards for making fun of his comb over.

Americans, specifically BoB will be responsible, entirely, for all the destruction.

2. Hillary won the Nevada primary. Sanders and his band of zealots are whining about 2 delegates

on behalf of a candidate who is 300 delegates behind. Pure petulant childishness.

the corrupt, center-right, hawkish candidate won and she's now tied nationally and key swing states with the most unpopular major party nominee in polling history, and is under investigation by the FBI. Says a lot about the modern Democratic Party. Months ago, you all focused on how electable she was, but that is now out the damn window, since it's clear she isn't more electable. She's the weakest candidate in your party's history, but she began with massive amounts of Wall Street and corporate cash, name recognition, massive support from the media and the DNC, has benefited from a rigged process, and she is likely to eek out a victory against an independent Jewish socialist that no one knew a year ago, someone that started 60 points behind. She also isn't trusted or liked. My advice: Enjoy your likely victory (if she isn't indicted) at the convention. Since she is beyond beatable and a very weak candidate, you might want to just enjoy the moment.

a movement that's going to tear down the Mammon idols. We might not have the power structure of the Oligarchy you defend so strongly but we are fighting for our jobs, our children, our vets, and in many cases, our lives.

We've won, we've exposed the corrupt culture that has to lie, cheat and steal elections to hold power.

The arrogance of those siding with the Weatlhy 1% is hollow and they know it. Shame.

oh, nevermind.

Thanks you, Ms. Bilbray, and tip of the hat to Amborin for finding it!

what transpired. Said she was there from early morning with her husband and two small children. Never saw any violence. Said there was lots of cursing because people were extremely angry and frustrated about their inability to bring motions to the floor even though they had complied with all the new and arbitrary rules. Said many of the young people who were actively involved in wanting to be heard were people that wanted to be part of the process and were denied that right. Many of the decisions that were announced made no sense -- even to a lot of Clinton supporters who were there. Heard her all talk about her father being so disgusted by what was happening that he walked out after ripping up his ballot.

It really is amazing to see what the media is doing now and so incredibly sad. They are turning this into the Howard Dean SCREAM and they don't care about factual info -- only turning this into a cage fight and Sanders into something he is not and has never been. Just like they ended Deans run.
