In reply to the discussion: Memo to Bernie Sanders supporters [View all]MADem
(135,425 posts)pot stirring to no avail, here! The OP is about a weasel who is fronting at being a Bernie supporter, but who, in actual fact, has declared his loyalty to Rand Paul. This OP is NOT about Hillary--so why are you trying to make it so?
Pull the string, begin at the beginning, and see how brilliantly you're being played...!
The issue is that a Paulbot writer named Goodman, who uses phrases like "illegal immigrants" while playing at being a "liberal" cough "Democrat" cough-- is running a little game to troll Sanders' clueless supporters (hoping, no doubt, that he can convert them to Paulbots in the event of a Sanders crash-and-burn)--but instead of saying "Oh, shit--that guy's bona-fides ARE suspicious!" you just HAVE to double down, defend the idiot, and play the "Waaah Smack Hillary!" game! Get your mind OFF Hillary for once--this is about a Rand Paul fox in the Sanders henhouse, not about Hillary.
But hey--perhaps you don't merit a fair warning; why should anyone point out the obvious and assist you in developing a jaundiced eye? Fine--off you go, hop in bed with this Goodman guy. Don't take the advice--cheer him on! He's got his eye on the prize after all--on Rand Paul's behalf!
And it's really weird that I ask "villager" the question twice, and you're the second surrogate to jump in like a rodeo clown waving a distracting hankie, for what reason, I can't discern, while that "villager" person doesn't turn up to respond. Hmm. It was a really simple question. It's one an O'Malley, Webb, or Chaffee supporter might ask. Not everything is All About Hillary--sometimes, it's about curious "supporters" who just might have other agendas....like this Goodman guy.
