392. What A Full Court Press Effort

Tue Apr 28, 2015, 05:18 PM

Apr 2015

Astonishing, I wish I had the time to post 500 times a day.

Where does it end? Inequality is getting worse by the day.

Yes Hillary is preferable to anyone the right throws up. Wall Street Dems do ace Wall Street Republicans but that bar is not real high.

When do we draw a line in the sand and say this just isn't good enough for we in the 99%? That it's not acceptable for Wall Street Execs to crash the economy, ruin everyday people's lives, and then not only stay out of jail for obvious, widespread, and blatant fraud they leave with 100's of millions - they get to keep all that really ill gotten cash. You couldn't make this stuff up. That happened under Obama, who fought hard against providing any foreclosure relief for those victimized by predatory loans.

I think Hillary will win and then we'll see where she goes once in. If she loses by one vote my bad but I just can't do it anymore. Sooner or later the democrats need to get back to being democrats.

Or, we could go to a real democracy, multiple parties, IRV with no computers and real vote security. That a pipe dream though till we get public funding of elections so it's not all about legalized bribery.

Yeah, ya did. You posted that POS piece from Banter that said she lied and you said you agreed merrily Apr 2015 #360

How many times are you going to do the buh bye thing? MaggieD Apr 2015 #363

The Banter article simply pointed out what Warren said on National TV: ucrdem Apr 2015 #403

Your statement is FLAT OUT UNTRUE, ucrdem merrily Apr 2015 #406

Don't shoot the messenger. nt ucrdem Apr 2015 #407

As to the contents of your very own untrue post, you are not just a messenger. merrily Apr 2015 #410

For the record, the Maddow video is EMBEDDED in the Banter article, ucrdem Apr 2015 #411

LOL! I knew, that but it doesn't alter the fact that your post was FLAT OUT UNTRUE. merrily Apr 2015 #417

HUH? See my Reply 360. You made an UNTRUE post and you obviously knew it. merrily Apr 2015 #421

Nothing to see. The issue is, did Banter make its case? It did. ucrdem Apr 2015 #424

NO! That was the issue on another thread two days ago. merrily Apr 2015 #429
