... make me nauseous. 
... I'm a BernieSis.
I knew "BernieSis" didn't sound right. 
... Maybe I'm exhausted from politics. But this thread is turning hilarious.
... we have all regressed back to the playground. If someone calls my friend a name, I call his friend a name. See how it goes? Have a good day. I'm off to make a Bernie donation! 
I believe I will go back and do it again right now, in your honor.

claiming Bernie is a racist, sexist impostor planted by the teabaggers to ruin Hillary's Coronation. That he is really the Antichrist masqueraded as a savior and goes to Rome to make the life of LGBT a bit more difficult with the Pope's blessing /remember reading a post indicating that Bernie was anti- LGBT because he went to the Vatican on a completely different errand)
Allegedly grandparent generation (with some honorable exemptions off course) seek to alienate the millenials because they vote for Bernie Sanders and principles over faux pragmatism (a key word for "yes I will vote with the republicans and corporations against the interests of my voter base for political expediency or money gain"
These are the people who did get affordable health care. These are the people who got affordable college And these are the people who think that their grand kids can either just "take a small loan" from daddy, or flip burgers to pay a 50 000 dollars a year to get an education they only paid the fracture to get themselves.
This is the Baby boomers. The hippie generation that has gone corporate and hawkish.
They think that the kids today are lazy who don't want to use their bootstrap like they claim they did themselves Let's call it the Trump syndrome.
"If you can't afford college, then it's because you are a loser, your parents are losers, and no one are entitled to 'free stuff' such as an education. As if education and health care are commodities exclusively for the privileged class who can afford it. They think that it's unrealistic to to give the kids today the same things they got 40 years ago and very realistic to take money from rich donors and not be corrupted by these donations.
The logic for many people is "we think that kids today are not entitled to 'free stuff' like college and health care, and politicians who takes corporate money are incorruptible if your name is Bill or Hillary Clinton.
These are the same people who accuses Hillary critics for sexism, and have no quarrels to call a twenties something intern who was coerced by as serial cheater to give him a blow job a slut. As if people in power never use their position of power to extort sexual favors from their female staff and definitely does not apply to Bill Clinton...
Wonder if Monika Lewinsky was on the hitlist of the Clinton clan...
...In already regurgitated samples. I can only write in longer contexts with a smarky, cynical tone. Hence the long winded causer to get a point across.
Thanks for the headzup.
... you're a writer, alright. And if you're not, check out of here and head down to Knoff. I'm always amazed by writers who can say exactly what's going on in my head. 
at a free concert a month and a half ago in front of a thousand people.
Now, I'm sucking on all of George Carlin's material like a vampire bat to find something to steal and make my own.
Excellent post.
I am a Baby Boomer who recognizes the advantages I have had because of two important things: the era during which I was born and the wonderful parents/family into which I was born. My older sister (love teasing her about that) and I talk about this all the time as we worry about our grown children and now the grands whose lives will be totally different from ours... as we worry about the earth; the climate; the quality of our air, food and water; the proliferation of weapons and war.
We are the lucky ones, but we lament what this nation has become and what the Democratic Party has become since the Clintons helped create the DLC. We are Bernie Boomers all the way and were mightily depressed after the NY results, especially the margin of HRC's victory. How can so many be so willfully blind 
Your thread is so important because I see the embodiment of your words in many of my friends, especially the childless ones. They are reaping the benefits of real Democratic (FDR, LBJ) legacies. They have Medicare and SS, were educated at a time when education (even at elite schools) was affordable and didn't saddle a person with debt equivalent to a mortgage. They had rewarding jobs with pensions. And they were able to purchase homes when housing didn't consume such a large percentage of income or require such ghastly commutes from an affordable location to in-town work.
The childless ones don't have to worry about the future, and many just want to see a woman POTUS in their lifetime with no regard for the fact that HRC is the wrong woman! Some point out appointments to the USSC, but when corporations are elevated to personhood and rule everything... control government, education, healthcare, etc. then USSC is in the hands of and for the benefit of the corporation regardless of who occupies the White House.
Anyway, great post... and belated welcome to DU
Female Bernie Bros just as hateful as Mail Bernie Bros .
first class package? Third class cardboard box? Manilla envelope?
from a fellow female and a Bernie Boomer
So since I don't carry a banner for the Queen with pride and prominence, I've re-emerged from under my rock? Here's some words for you to bask in: ____ you, you ____ - ______ bag of _____ ____! 
I don't think the "berniebro" is an actual Bernie Sanders supporter.
The people that I think fit the pattern go out of their way to show up late, heap invective, harass opponents online and off, and then slink away when it's all over. They don't support a candidate, they only exist to be a pain in the ass. They won't vote for Sanders, I don't think most of them can be bothered to get off their asses unless a pizza is at the door.
They are working in exactly the same way as the PUMAs did back in 2008, they too will disappear shortly after the nomination is decided.
BTW it's totally gutless not to fill out the blanks. If you really meant it you'd be willing to take the hide.
the MSNBC panel was disgusting, and what they were saying and doing with "this" panel, they attacked Sanders, and then turned right around and had a coronation--------------------------amazing
Well guess what.........................

go into the forums for Hillary and see what is being said about Sanders...................or am I missing something here,--------------------------I will defend myself from the attacks-------------------your canidate has been given the coronation from day one by the media....................and last nights love fest just reinforces that fact........................and, yes Hartmann supports Sanders, which I am using for my research, I kinda like to have facts---------------------I support the "progressive" mantra and its agenda.

Though it would be early for her to make one unless she is heir presumptive. 
My real question is where is the DNC's plan to retake the House and Senate? It is non-existent here where even some Republicans have had it with our Club for Growth Representative. The DNC has been MIA here ever since the killed the 50 state plan just in time to lose seats for the Census redistricting. It really sucks to watch your whole county turn into a Republican paradise because Democratic Party decision makers could not be bothered. (Our locals Dems sure are trying hard even without real help from the state and national.) Seems no matter how much money anyone raises for the DNC only certain districts & states get much of it. So right now I really have no problem with Bernie supporting down ticket people that think like him instead of feeding the machine in place now.
if you think the DNC has a plan, just take a close look at who they are supporting and running the Pay Day Lenders co-sponsored bill, do you see them supporting Zepyher Teachout for example, have they given her money, or how about Tim Canova, have they given him any money...............................I thought the DWS and the DNC was suppose to give money to all of the candidates---------------to get the best into office.....................Oh I forget, she has lost over how many representatives since she was put in charge of the DNC.
And just for a reminder lets look back on this with fond memories.............................

The "plan" in the neoliberal establishment called the DLC and the Third Way is to create more inequality, the historical facts show this, and someone was in that group with that "plan" during that creation of the Third Way and the DLC----------------this is not made up.....................
If you think that saying Honk-------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016 is a empty bumper sticker, I find it offensive, it's his first Union made campaign sticker, is this a problem.
I have been saying it since day one when Sanders ran for this presidency and oh by the way.....................

Honk---------------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016
Don't look it up.
You know, the Women in her audience?...I know..it's hard to remember that the whole world isn't about men. 
and the continuation of not talking about issues-------------------its how to keep that money and to keep the inequality with the professionals in charge, to seek those that are just not towing the line, to continue the blame the inequality class, and that you are a failure you have not tried hard enough, you have not done enough, even after we told you that this is what it will take, and we did that, thinking they the professionals know better--------------nope it's not enough, and still get the blame must be in the inequality class.
Let's not talk about how Hedge Funds started in the 1940's Act should be revisited and broken up.
Nope lets talk about how the same Hedge funds are giving money to a candidates and groups, (except for one Sanders), to continue this inequality class
Honk---------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016
when you say opportunistic, what exactly does that mean?
Does that mean that when that the media from day one has given her the coronation, since she first ran, and all the public has been hearing about is Clinton vs Trump or Trump vs Clinton professionals .
Does it mean, that she has been given more access into the corporate oligarchy board room to hear how the inequality is being played out, by the professional
Does it mean that is why people up with debt around up to there collective ears are throwing paper money, or how she voted to give the same banks the moola, to charge people rates that have bankrupted the society and thrown this country into third rate status by the professionals
Does it mean to flip-flop on a trade policy because the society as a whole are fed up with inequality it creates and she supported from the past with the professionals.
Does it mean that people are fed up and lost there homes, while they, the same banks that she visited, the same banks which got the same money at our fed window at .01% , and then turn right around and say here is your money we will charge you 8 to 25% by the professionals.
Does it mean that she is going to do something about the Hedge Funds, that were created in the 1940 Acts, and she hasn't said anything about breaking this ponzi scheme up, because she was in that room for and with the moola professionals.
Or does it mean that she thinks just like the media coronation that someone that did not have a (D) in front of there name they aren't one and they are not a professional.
Take a look at Thomas Franks book: Listen, Liberal and see and read what a professional is all about---------------its disgusting......................
Honk-------------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016
have left the headmeat, an no argument of substance remains, the sexist BS ad hominem is always a great clutch for thin skinned winers who love rich, white men in suits who give their corporste pimp hundred of thousands of dollars.
Would you be more happy if they applied for an audience and wrote out a 300 000 dollar check?
Would that make you happy?
Or shall we continue to play the tunes of crocodile tears from the poutrage from the same people who has sought to crucify the Liberal Jew who have actually represented the PEOPLE since day one?
I never thought I would ever link to this song before to describe my "deeply held sympathy" for the people whose camp cheers coter suppression and uses republican talking points to express their content with the status quo.
They were throwing dollar bills as if she were a "stripper?"
Where in the hell did Joy get that from? I would never in a million years have thought that. Were the dollar bills not theater for the large sums of money Hillary was raising at George Clooney's place?
Yeah, Joy's climbing the ladder and giving me one more reason to not watch MSNBC if she is hosting or on a panel. And "Bernie Bro's?" Who came up with that term? Guess I'm a Bernie "Sis."
nor do I think she is dishonest, and btw, I'm a Bernie supporter -- Hell, I was thrown OUT of the Hillary forum,
so please don't attack me in "Hilbot" terms.
Surely you know that Joy Reid wasn't the only observer of this incident to come to that same conclusion...You really must learn that
failing to agree with someone doesn't necessarily make that person "stupid" or."dishonest"
In evidence, only your opinion, and I doubt anyone will
confuse the two, especially when it's expressed as incomprehensively as your last sentence.

It:s a conceptual problem, one suggesting a lack of critical thinking skills.. Referring to your post's last jumble of words as a "grammar problem" is like a
calling a tornado a breeze -- Read it and remember that Review is your friend.
Having said that, Stupidicus, I will credit you eith at least one thing,: the choice of an unusually suiitable name. 
Give it up, genius, er stupiidicus..Your "stupidicus" has earned you a permanent place on my ignore list.
I wouldn't get too upset about it, though...Bernie has made a yoooge impact on the party, regardless of whether or not he wins the nomination.
I don't know if the economic situation of individual DU Hillary supporters is dictating their choice, I think there are multiple reasons, including a lack of political sophistication. Keep the faith. 
The sole reason I dislike Hillary is because she is a woman. It has absolutely nothing to do with her being an unapologetic warmonger and a corporate lapdog
Under sniper fire in Bosnia . . .
I'm glad people don't mistakenly assume that just because I'm a totally and permanently disabled veteran produced by the war on Iraq that I might be bitter about Hillary's statement in 2008 that she had nothing to be sorry about in regard to her support for the war on Iraq and that it took more than a decade for her to realize that it was a mistake and issue a half-assed apology. While I was shooting, killing, and stuffing body bags in Iraq, attempting suicide multiple times and being locked up in psych wards for months at a stretch her daughter (who is the same age as me) was living the good life and marrying a multimillionaire hedge fund manager. I love to see it when the people who are partly responsible for the crap in the world are protected from actually experiencing the mess they make.
Anyways Candy and Tiffany are up next on the center stage at the strip club I'm at. Me and my Bernie bros got a bunch of dollar bills that we wad up into balls and stuff change into. We like to throw them at the strippers and laugh at them when they cry! Hey, you know what they always say, don't you? "The lap dance is always better when the stripper is crying!"
