And the call definitely went out.
Not everything is about you.
People can post memes or gifs any fucking time they want.
You've done it probably dozens of times to actually strike out at others - yet you state you didn't understand doing it even at the age of 7? Come on now .....
when you've been making fun of people here using them for years.
Sorry, no moral ground there, as much as you desperately need to be seen as better than anyone (and there are a lot of us) just recently deciding upon using them in response to shit that doesn't deserve anything but.
I'd say, try not to take it so hard. 
?w=360&h=240&crop=1that can't be bothered to read things, but seems to have so very many pictures to paste, and is so dedicated to posting replies.
I know you're all upset and so very angry, but let that hate out and let's see if we can get some healing going on, before you hurt yourself or someone else. This much despair and this much denial ... well, it's not a healthy mix.
Why so hostile? Who hurt you BMUS?
I'm flattered really, maybe you should spread some of that around, other Bernistas will be jealous I'm getting all your attention.
The "Sanders lied" tactic is being pushed so strong it's kinda funny, and kinda pathetic. It's very transparent, maybe come up with an actual argument to discus and you'll get it in return, until then:
No matter how hard you force it, the "Bernie lies" meme won't catch on. Meanwhile there are some transcripts that are still missing, and also she is shutting reporters out of her speech.
But Bernie used a colloquial term when talking about subway rides, so I guess that's bigger news, eh?
He didn't claim the pope invited him, he said the pope would like to meet him.
I wasn't aware that those gif I posted were memes, they're just a couple of shots from Star Wars that express my feelings of disbelief that the politician known as being dishonest (check the polls) is attacking the one known for his honesty on lieing, there is zero credibility there. Maybe post something that hasn't been discredited? Something that isn't based on interpretation and stretching it to something that doesn't even resemble reality and you might get somthing simmilar in responce.
until then have this classic:
Yeah, the tokens thing, making a big deal out of that is positively Palinesque.
You know like this one?:
VATICAN CITY/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders was invited to speak at an April 15 Vatican event by the Vatican, a senior papal official said on Friday, denying a report that Sanders had invited himself.
"I deny that. It was not that way," Monsignor Marcelo Sanchez Sorondo told Reuters in a telephone interview while he was traveling in New York. Sorondo, a close aide to Pope Francis, is chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, which is hosting the event.
He said it was his idea to invite Sanders.
A Bloomberg report quoted Margaret Archer, president of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, as saying that Sanders had broken with protocol by failing to contact her office first.
"This is not true and she knows it. I invited him with her consensus," said Sorondo, who is senior to Archer.

Meanwhile Hillary will be meeting with Hollywood's most glamourous couple for big bucks.
Yes, I see why her supporters are so touchy about this story.
in a high dudgeon about this topic, as Bernie's story is exposed to be simply not true, per the Vatican. Your flurry of comments show that you're quite upset about it! Do calm down.
Yes, I have seen the actual lies, where Bernie, either got caught lying, or as you asserted, proved just how incredibly uninformed he was, and thought he was meeting with the Pope!
Who stated that he invited himself, clearly his Hillary hating buddy Sachs was the one agitating for his inclusion, without it seems, letting the president know. She was quite upset about not being consulted, and I see no proof of that consensus that the Bishop alleges, and we know how fond of truth telling those guys are, amiright?
Yeah, meanwhile Hillary will be raising money for downstream Dems and the party building that Bernie forgot he agreed to and hasn't bothered to. It's almost like she understands that to get anything done in Congress and to effect change at the local and state level, the party needs funds.
Yeah, I see why you keep projecting your own emotional upset after the past couple of days that exposed Bernie's dishonesty, his crabbiness, and his failure to actually bother getting a clue about anything before he opens his mouth.
No wonder you're so deeply upset that you're all over the threads with so many, many posts expressing your outrage in the only way you can handle it. Projection doesn't seem to helping you out much though, your upset is quite clear, despite your over use of gifs, memes and smilies.
Poor thing, the implosion is just too much for you, isn't it? The next few days are not going to get better for you. 
You hang in there, it'll be over soon.
Maybe a new hobby would help, try extreme ironing or yarn bombing, I hear it helps take the edge off all that hatred.
BS so much, he ALSO fails to read things and ends up falling flat on his face!
One of us sure is obsessed, and perhaps a hobby that doesn't involve posting all day on topics you claim others are obsessed about is a good thing for you to look into?
Are those things you've tried to take "an edge of all that hatred"? Because ... well your posts (the many, many, many, many of them) don't show that they worked out well.
I wish you the very best in finding something that will help you, the projection isn't doing it.
backing yourself into corners, huh? And after such a day when your candidate was getting so beaten up and ridiculed for just failing to accept reality or stop the lying!
I can see why you're both stressed, upset and why all that projection isn't doing much for you, given the sheer volume of posts which betray your own obsession.
I'm so sorry that you're going through such a hard time and that you just haven't the wherewithal to either answer simple questions that are just so very long and hard for you to read, OR stop responding. You keep giving yourself away. While you antics are indeed rather amusing to me, they seem to only be making you ever more tense, upset and angry.
Poor thing, log off, do some of that extreme ironing or whatever hobbies you were recommending and see if that doesn't relax you and help you work through your emotions on this very difficult day.
When Bernie went to Liberty U he stood up for our rights, he didn't pander like Hillary.
I can see why y'all are so touchy about this religious thing.
Who's rights was he standing for at a RW college? 
Our rights???? Our Rights? 
Our rights, okay. I am a little scared here. 
What rights do we have in common with a RW school. They may be your rights, they sure are not mine.
This! This! This!!!!!!! You are so funny!!!! Lol! You are!!!!! I just told you I did not give 0ne shit about religion or Berns visit and you say
My post in full not giving a shit...
I am not Catholic, I never understood their antiquated ways or their ugliness and hate, I was raised Episcopalian, I left them after high school. I am no longer a religious person.
So no, I am not jealous at all that Bernie is going there. Bernie is welcome to go where he wishes. Not a wise choice IMHO, yet his choice. Choice. The one that women strive for and are denied. Our Bodies Ourselves.
You cite Liberty University as an example of Bernie's supposed support of women's rights? Are you fucking KIDDING? Or are you just nuts? Jeez! 
: 
Liberty University.
Misogynist, homophobic, anti-democratic, and oh by the way...anti Catholic. What's not to like?
Oh wait, my bad - that was your candidate who said that.
Bernie went to Liberty U and said:
And the right of a woman to control her own body.
I believe gay rights and gay marriage.
I guess she has more in common with the pope than Bernie.
"more in common with the pope"?? Who's going to the Vatican?
It really is that simple, I don't know how else to explain it so you'll understand.
Nothing to do but post on DU. Over and out.

U.S. Uncut | April 8, 2016
Bernie Sanders is going to the Vatican, the seat of the Pope, the same day Hillary Clinton is fundraising with a former Goldman Sachs executive. You can’t make this stuff up.
On Friday, April 15, Bernie Sanders will travel to the Vatican to discuss the global economy and environmental sustainability at a conference on social, environmental, and economic issues, hosted by the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences. Sanders will speak on his vision of a “moral economy.”
“Pope Francis has made clear that we must overcome ‘the globalization of indifference’ in order to reduce economic inequalities, stop financial corruption and protect the natural environment. That is our challenge in the United States and in the world,” Sanders said in a public statement.
That same day, Hillary Clinton will be attending a fundraiser in the global financial capital of Hong Kong, hosted by Gary Gensler, her campaign’s Chief Financial Officer. Gensler walked through the revolving door from Wall Street to Washington’s financial regulatory system. Prior to heading up the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s (CFTC) regulation of derivative swaps, Gensler was a partner at Goldman Sachs. The fundraiser can only be attended by those willing to donate the maximum allowable contribution of $2,700.
Sanders’ visit and Clinton’s Hong Kong fundraiser will come one day after their debate in Brooklyn, and just four days before New York Democrats vote in their state’s primary. Sanders’ trip comes at a particularly critical time, as some of the states next in line to vote are also some of the most Catholic in the United States.

Maybe it's a good thing Hillary isn't invited to the Vatican, for lot$ of reasons.
You saw all of her posts, right?
She's confronted with the fact that either Bernie is a liar, as his false statements keep showing, or that he's just profoundly ignorant and didn't know any better. That's a hard thing for someone who believes so very strongly in the infallibility of a politician to deal with.
Just look at the energy she's expending to deny that truth, and take it easy on her.
Encourage her to engage in one of her hobbies, she mentioned extreme ironing, and seems to enjoy wine. She's very tense, and while she's engaging in her defense mechanisms of projection, denial etc. it's just not working for her today.
Send her a hug and wish her well and encourage her to stop the obsessive posting of numerous nonsensical memes and gifs and sad arguments and go offline and do something soothing. You know the next few days will be even harder for her, given that people are paying attention to Bernie and the silly things he says finally.
She needs our compassion.
And yet you're the one being accused of having anger issues? Hilarious!
Uh-oh, now I've done it: I used--*gasp*--a smilie!
The hypocrisy is staggering.
She's not having nearly as difficult a day as you are!
Unless you can prove that Bernie knew he wouldn't meet with the pope it's not a lie. Even the Vatican admits it's not out of the realm of possibility.
See how that works?
Of course I realize that compared to corkscrew landings and sniper fire this is really kind of meh but you'll have to work with it.
you couldn't defend Lyin' Bernie by calling him too stupid to read or understand things. You backed yourself into a corner and had no clue how to get out, did ya?
It's okay, dear, run along, rest up, perhaps you'll figure out how to defend his blatant lies better tomorrow, given how he keeps getting caught and doubling down, you'll have lots of opportunities to try and fail some more.
yet more advice you're wishing you'd taken for yourself?
Some where out there is a tree, that's producing O2, go find it, and breathe in, and see if that reverses the hypoxia. I'm sure Dr. House would approve.
So very many posts for someone pretending not to be obsessed and who is just too tired to read lest she be asked to answer the simple question she framed, but is too scared to answer.
Remember DEEP breaths, oxygen is good for you, and denying it to yourself only harms you.
You've been here a couple of months and have racked up more hides than I have in over 11 years.
Temper temper.
You're worried about me now? Why, dear BMUS? I know it's been rough for you, and it's so very hard to lose arguments and have facts to face that are so very hard for you, especially when you're clinging so very hard to something that you know in your heart is simply not true.
Is that what you need dear BMUs, a hug from the right person? Who is your right person BMUS, and how shall we find them for you?
Your stress is indeed harming you and you do need it to meltaway, all these posts show that you do seem to be having a very hard time of it, no need to be hostile dear or wag that finger and rant and rave about transparency pages.
Your temper is a symptom of that stress and that anger you're bottling up.
How can we help you dear BMUS?
I'm flattered, really but I have enough friends.
yours is showing too.

REASON FOR ALERT
This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
ALERTER'S COMMENTS
Gloating about someone else's hidden posts is despicable and should not be permitted on DU. Interestingly multiple hides happen repeatedly in the middle of the night when very few are on line and juries can be "coordinated". This is a pattern for some. Please hide or, if alerted already, administrators please review this pattern. Thank you.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Apr 9, 2016, 02:44 PM, and the Jury voted 0-7 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Bullshit.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: since hides mean very little these days, it seems to have become a badge of honor for some. Pointing them out is not a TOS violation
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Nah
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Skinner changed the rules allowing jerks who can't be civil to shit up this website. Only God and Skinner knows why. Alerter you may think that is hunky dory. I do not.
So bzzt! No hide from me.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: a childish back and forth. borderline.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: With amnesty, the hidden posts are a badge of honor for many people. I don't see this as rude - it is open information to anyone who cares to click on the member's profile. *shrug*
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
Thanks and
This obsession to paint Bernie as a liar is Pavlovian, I've never seen anything like it.
I so had to steal a copy of that!
On the one hand, they are always accusing Catholics in general and priests in particular of the most heinous crimes; and on the other, they are thrilled to pieces when Bernie (falsely) them he's been invited to speak to the Pope.
Just another thread to /trash
Vaticangate? Eh, just not into it.
I spent far too much time "trashing" threads today.
Since WaPo has ripped off the whole fact checking shtick, I have been wondering the way their scale works? If something is very truthful what does it get? No Pinocchios? Are they saying he is a liar? Are they impeaching the whole character of Pinocchio and ignoring his character arc? I for one find it very berating to Pinocchio, and the fact that the HRC camp seems to like it makes me think they are prejudice against magical wooden automatons, Pinocchiogate? Also what is the maximum Pinocchio rating?
http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2015/09/30/embattled-washington-post-fact-checker-admits-pinocchio-ratings-are-subjective/ *1
P.S. I hope you are happy, you all did this #Pinocchiogate
*1 Is it wrong to post a propaganda site (Breitbart) about another propaganda site (WaPo)? Propameta?
He may or may not meet the Pope.
But DAMN, wouldn't that be GREAT?
I started my day hearing that Bernie was invited to attend a conference on social justice at the Vatican. Then he told Mika and Joe that he didn't know if the Pope would be at the conference - he wasn't sure.
Then some conference official got her panties in a wad about what, I don't know, and lied to the press about his wrangling an invitation only to be smacked down by her boss about an hour later explaining that what she said was untrue.
As it ended, what is known is that Bernie will be in attendance at the conference, which is run by the Vatican at the Pope's pleasure, and that he may speak if there's time.
Oh, and with Hillary supporters so flummoxed they've tried to tear this down all day even in the face of, well, as it turns out, nothing, proving that they're scared this visit will elevate Sanders on the international scene and with Catholics days before the New York primary.
He's a audience participant.
I also noticed your newest "fan" ... when they are that dead set against anything you post you know you must be doing something right 
I defend Bernie by posting facts but that has a strange effect on some people. I don't lose my temper anymore, it's more fun to laugh it off and watch them fume.
I'll keep pointing and laughing and posting memes - bullies do hate that.
There's the invite
There's the response to the lie that Sanders invited himself
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-vatican-idUSKCN0X5257
A Bloomberg report quoted Margaret Archer, president of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, as saying that Sanders had broken with protocol by failing to contact her office first.
"This is not true and she knows it. I invited him with her consensus," said Sorondo, who is senior to Archer.
An invitation to Sanders dated March 30, which was emailed to Reuters, was signed by Sorondo and also included Archer's name.
A man senior to Archer, chancellor of the Pontifical Academy of Social SciencesArcher is president of, tells reporters that Margaret Archer knew Sanders was invited by him. And he produced the invite.
This was backed up by a Columbia professor who helped the Vatican get in touch with Sanders
http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2016/04/bernie-heads-to-the-vatican/477471/
Jeffrey Sachs, a Columbia University professor who is presenting at the event, said in a phone interview that he helped the Vatican reach out to Bernie Sanders in March, and he doesn’t know why Archer alleged that the Sanders campaign initiated the gig. “The academy sent the invitation, it’s pure and simple,” he said. “A lot of people in the Vatican respect him a lot. He is speaking in the same kind of moral themes that Pope Francis, and the social teachings of the Church, promote, which is a moral economy.”
In another report, Sorondo said that the Pope knew Sanders was being invited.
After Margaret Archer lied about it, the Pope may well fell obligated to meet with Sanders to make up for the embarrassment of the President of an entity associated with the Vatican lying about Sanders invitation and being called out for it by Sorondo. You know, "thou shalt not bear false witness ..", the commandment the Clintons ignore all the time ...
It's an honor, and it makes a lot of Clinton supporters sad, I think.
I highly doubt that a picture of the two of them matters to Bernie, maybe to his campaign staff but not to him.
Your snarkiness and presumption that he would is what we call projection.
Hillary would surely have looked first to having a photo op. She is vulgar that way. (other ways, too, of course)
