(11,464 posts)and the writers above mostly are way left writers, who's job is in keeping memes alive and making aliving that way.
You do know the far left is while not as bad, almost as bad as the far right.
Why do you all wish to discredit President Obama's predicted by me, landslide election that he attained (and one in which he received more votes(and counting still) than Bush did in 2004.
Had Kerry received the same number of votes as Obama did, indeed, he would have been President, Al Gore too.
Of course Al Gore and Bush did not get 50% thanks to Ralph Nader.
Strange oddity about Al Gore-he was sold down the river by the far left(including many of the above writers) in 2004. He was NOT allowed to run, was told he wouldn't be supported and he opted out early, supporting Howard Dean (who was sold down the river by the democrats too.
But the far left loved to use Al Gore and his name. And later of course sort of came back to him because of the climate change movement, though not for President.
Why wasn't Al Gore given a rematch? Pre-911, it was widely assumed Bush43 would be a failure, one term president. So why wasn't he given a rematch.
And why did the far left never fully back Kerry, who only was the #2 or #3 liberal in congress?
Why was it the far left attempts to ruin any democrat who can win, yet loves Ralph Nader?
if you find the answer, let me know.
BTW-Bobby Jr. did NOT back Obama when the rest of his family did. That was one blight on 2008 to so go against Teddy like that.
OH wait, the far left in 2000 backed BILL I TAKE MY BALL HOME BRADLEY- who lost badley
and whined and told the dems to f-off.
You remember Bill Bradley don't you? He of the 1% rich boy frat who was a star hall of fame basketball player don't you?
Who never supported Gore after Bradley's embarrassing Primary loss
(and the far left backed Russ Whiny took his ball home and became a super lobbyist himself Feingold. When he could have beaten that draconian in his state, but was super soreloser at losing and didn't step up to the plate and went AWOL.)
Yet the far left continue to use Al Gore for their conspiracy theories. Ones in which Al Gore himself did not ask them to do.
But Al was thrown into the river in 2004 for Howard Dean.(who shortly later on was himself tossed in the river.)
my, wasn't that special as the Church Lady might have said.
(and the far left tossed Kerry in the river and whined and whined while some of them were attempting to perpetuate the biggest fraud on the democrats ever, the $400 haircut man John "chuckie" Edwards, who's sole claim to fame was being mega-1% rich, and lying to the public by telling them he was poor, and tell me, how many of his clients got rich as their lawyer did?)Populist?
And remember, you must NOT vote for Andrew Cuomo because of the smear that most people know Andrew was responsible for in Mario Cuomo's race vs. Ed Koch.
WINNING. Which is the only thing of importance.
And Chicago wins. They did in 1960, 1964, 2008 and 2012.
Maybe instead of Joe Lieberman, Al should have rightly picked Rev. Jackson (or Kerry himself too). And then Chicago would have won those two races handily. So a suppposed theft in 2000 would not have happened.
And where is the far left in investigating what is probably the ONE CT that is actually true?
The murder of Paul Wellstone who was Wellstoned not once but twice, the second time being at the celebration of his life.
Where is the investigating that? I always wondered. Had Gore picked Wellstone and not LIeberman if Gore so wanted a Jewish person on his ticket, he would have been better off.
As a Jewish person myself I was proud when Joe was picked, but who the 'ell was Joe Lieberman anyhow? Us NY/NJers never had heard of him prior to that.
and where was the far left when the last real reporter in mainstream news, Dan Rather was also sold down the river?
They abandoned him, even though his info was spot on and it was never proven the memo itself was fake.
Huh?
I will take Ted Kennedy liberalism over the far left any day.At least Ted Kennedy achieved goals for 50 years and didn't dwell on the past tragedies.(and if anyone had a right to say retire privately and get high every day, after the deaths of JFK and RFK and all the other tragedy in that family, it was Teddy.
But Teddy overcame and stood tall, and died a Saint among men.
And with President Obama, the Dream lives on.
Not from a conspiracy theory, but from CHICAGO.
My kind of town, Chicago is (c)Sammy Cahn and Jimmy Van Heusen and sung by Frank Sinatra, the Chairmen of the Board himself.
Chicago, where unions still rule and democrats win the presidency.
I sure wish Hillary would run from that state
(it is like when a baseball player goes into the Hall of Fame who played for more than one team, they got the choice which hat to wear.(recently I believe that was changed).
But Hillary running WITH Chicago 100% support will win 400 electoral votes plus
(and please democrats-now is not the time to give up the electoral votes. Please keep them, and lets make Puerto Rico the 51st state, and how about Mexico the 52nd.
I hear Fox (the president) wants to change the name anyhow.
