Hillary picks her VP

 
 
 
That's Peter Sellers as Dr. Strangelove. An entirely different sort of message.

And if you are curious, I have a smart alecky cat-monster from a cartoon. The caption on mine that you can't read is "I have approximate knowledge of many things."

Really, and how did you expect the democrats were going to do that without congress and with a court that had already ruled that doing so was un-contitutional? I mean it's obvious that you are completely clueless as to how our government works-but that's the beauty of it isn't it?

It's a great country, isn't it? You can sit back and piss and moan about how incredibly unfair everything is while others, like Bernie Sanders can struggle and bust their 74 year old ass to try to make changes.

Tristan, you really like to make remarks that hurt peoples' feelings. Your avatar is some smart alekey guy with a cigarette holder...I am assuming that to be Roosevelt like. You really don't know what you are talking about or to whom you are speaking. I am within a year of age with Bernie Sanders and I know about seventy something asses and how they feel when they work on campaigns. The truth is, Sanders always was under the wing of the Democratic Party. I have watched these people squirm and cheat and do all sorts of harm to our country and our countrymen (and women). I will not be voting for the Goldwater girl. You seem very afraid of Trump yet you brag about how good America is. America's next president could be Trump. Then would it still be wonderful?

Your avatar looks like George Burns. Are you God?
 
Some people think voting is useless unless you get everything you fantasize for, they don't want to accept that the reality is you have to work with people who don't agree with you on everything. Unicorns or bust.

Yes, and it's doubtful he would sign any reincarnation of Glass-Steagall.

I'm not expecting President Trump to be any more dynamic at maintaining the status quo than Clinton. They both seem, not unlike Al Gore, given to compulsive lying. Bernie should realize that whatever you negotiate with a compulsive liar will in the end only amount to being betrayed. This is especially obvious in the light of the Wikileaks release of DNC emails. Clinton is slightly slicker than Trump and knows where the checks are written. Big fucking deal. None of her agenda is designed to help the common man. I was just informed that the 2012 Democratic Party Platform contained language to get the money out of politics. That is just another minor bobble of the Obama administration...another failure..along with his regression to mafia style assassinations around the globe by drones. So the Sanders contribution to the Platform means not a single thing as long as we have a couple of Neoliberals in the top two offices who can and HAVE conveniently forgotten platforms of the past.:eek:

Indeed. It's such a good thing that third party idealists voted for Nader and handed Bush/Cheney the White House.

Maybe Trump will appoint one his of sons to SCOTUS! That'll show 'em!!

When lot's of people say things that hurt your feelings, then maybe you should consider that the problem is not them, but you. Eat some cement and harden up.

OMG! :hysterical:

I have seen some insanely ironic lack of self awareness on this forum in my time, but this takes the biscuit.

His Avatar is Peter Sellers, as Dr Strangelove - one of the best known roles by an extremely well known actor. Of course, it is perfectly fine for you to be ignorant of that fact; but given your ignorance on the matter, it is quite essential to your continued dignity that you avoid saying anything like "You really don't know what you are talking about or to whom you are speaking.", while simultaneously demonstrating to all and sundry your pitiful lack of knowledge about what you are talking about or to whom you are speaking.

America isn't wonderful. But it's not bad. If Trump becomes president, then it will be very bad. The 5% of humanity who live in the nation with the most advanced nuclear arsenal have a duty to the other 95% of the world not to put a narcissistic neo-fascist lunatic in charge of that arsenal. We don't give a flying FUCK whether you have a Goldwater girl, Mickey Mouse or the Wizard of Oz in the Oval Office; But we do tend to get alarmed at the prospect of an unstable xenophobe with an over-inflated ego having the power to incinerate our cities.
 
The fact that arkirk doesn't know about Dr Strangelove might indicate a general lack of interest in things relating to nuclear weapons.

Agreed. It's HRC or Trump, pick whichever one is closer to your beliefs, you're not going to get everything you want.
