Sneaked into the HRC group to respond to a post .. Banishment coming??

I first saw this post on the latest page

http://www.democraticunderground.com/110743686#post4

So I researched and found

http://www.anselm.edu/News/Hillary-Clinton-Roundup.htm

and posted the link as a reply.

Just because the event "Politics & Eggs", which apparently they have all the time, was paid for by corporations and the like, doesn't mean Bernie was beholden to them. Never the less, the HRC crowd is now screaming that Bernie is a hypocrite.

Damn! I'm missing out. I don't read that group at all because it seems to consist almost entirely of whining about how awful we are. Seems like a poor reason to have a group in the first place.

of which I am ignorant. And yes, I did grow up in a trailer park but hardly would consider myself an 'idiot.'

"Bill" seems to have some issues. I hope he gets help.

I was on MIRT with him and he seemed reasonable.

He sure showed his true colors with this primary season.

BTW, 14x75 and hardly an idiot.

even thought that that Borowitz story was true about Bernie getting a toaster and free checking account for keeping $500 in an account, thus being beholden to banks.

I think they have become unhinged, since their candidate of choice is a mess. They will ban 99% of DU (ironic!), then the World and finally they will turn on each other.

I'm a proud member of the Banned Badge of Honor Club.

Wear it proudly!

Go Bernie!

They ban people from their group left and right for infiltrating their protected space WHICH I AGREE ABOUT BUT they come in here and alert on OUR posts in OUR protected group.

It’s so fucking sneaky.

And if their candidate prevails (doubtful) they’ll just find something to fight about that doesn’t involve us.
