I care about the Democratic Party

Deeply.

I am endorsing Bernie Sanders, and those that are 11th hour suddenly endorsing O'Malley are doing so to do a split of the party.

Bernie Sanders will win. He has the momentum behind him and the forces in front of him looking bewildered.

Bernie Sanders will be our candidate, and you might as well get on board early, because he will take it to the White House.

I hope the

And here is where the narrative falls apart

You either are sincere in your efforts, or you are not.

If she did not specifically state her qualifications, she was not serious.

Thank you. You unraveled the whole tale right there.

You do not enter the ranks

with an Ivy League education as an enlisted. You enter as a c/o.

Are you seriously going to tell me that the Marine Corps recruiters are unable and unwilling to contact a CO to figure out where to send a recruit with her credentials?

Seriously?

You have quite a bit to learn.

Before the General Election

we have got to get all of this crap hashed out.

If you tell blatant lies, you must understand that it is part of the vetting process to expose them.

Nobody wants to get blindsided by a candidate that can be demonstrably shown as a liar and a hypocrite.

Deal with it. You can gloss over some things, but there are things that you cannot gloss over.

Stolen Valor, attempts at it and another attempt at it the day before Veteran's day will not be forgotten.

I am actually surprised by how many people here on DU do not understand how serious it is to do so, how disgusting it is, and how you can possibly believe that you can cover that shit with a new coat of paint.

DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

There are the caps.

I'm going to run in a 5K. it would have been absurd

this time last year, because I was on the coffin nails.

I quit smoking, and I know I sound like an idiotic commercial, but it has been such a great benefit to my life.

I can do things that I did in my teens (one of which was running in a 5K) and not be even the slightest bit phased.

Please under the sun and all that is holy, find another way and quit the cigarettes. They are depriving you of a hell of a lot of things.

I'll get off of my soapbox now.

Radeon 3 9X vs Geforce 9 series.

I'll be the first one to admit I have a bias toward nVidia.

And now I'm going to admit that Maxwell's "color compression" does not make up for a lagging 128-bt bus, nor the paltry 2GB they sought to flagship it under the "enthusiast" category.

I have had two boxes that run SLI for gaming - best one was before it was necessary. I was one of the first owners of a Monster 3D card (anybody remember those?)

I'm not sure who nVidia thinks they are going to fool, but a 4GB, crippled 128-bit bus is not it.

Go all out, and I'll still not buying it.

I don't fork over $200 for an innately, purposefully crippled piece of hardware.

If you live in a state that polls red, you are still irresponsible if you don't vote.

"None of the people I support can win here" is not an excuse.

We have statewide elections that directly affect the services in our states. We have local elections that determine quality of life.

Many politicians start out at the local level, become admired, go on to the state representation and the Presidency.

Get off of your butt (I know that is suddenly a dirty word) and get to the polls every damn time they are open, know what you are voting for, and the carload of people you are driving to the polls know what you are voting for, too.

Don't you just hate it

when your narrative of inevitability gets smashed to pieces?

That was a kind ass-handing as I have ever seen.

I love Bernie - he even wants the best for Clinton folks.

I'm rather stunned at the wellspring of compassion he has.
