(7,393 posts)- I loathe that fact that he has been paid millions as a senator and done nothing
- I loathe that he bills himself as a champion of LGBT rights when I KNOW he didn't do jack shit to help us
- I loathe that he thinks women fantasize about rape and his supporters insist we pretend he never said that (and will hide any post that mentions facts about it) http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/bernie-sanders-1972-essay-rape-fantasy-surfaces-article-1.2240379
- I loathe his indifference and ignorance about AA issues
- I loathe his proposals he knows can never pass, but uses to pander to middle class white people
- I loathe his pro gun votes, especially every time we have a new mass murder like today
- I loathe the way his supporters smear Dems 24/7/365 on a GD DEM website that was created to support Dems
And that is just a start. I wouldn't vote for him if you held a gun to my head. Which is exactly my position on voting for rethugs.
