(2,872 posts)1. Moron. Short-sighted. Bloodthirsty. Murderer. Et cetera.
And a few of the other apparently now "unutterables", which I expect to see used against Bernie if the trend of "I'll call x a motherfucker and then spam alert when someone refers to my y as a motherfucker" continues.

(55,745 posts)4. ''Money trumps peace.'' -- pretzeldent George w Bush
That's something that only a war criminal and warmonger would say.
Yet, "money trumps peace" are the very words of George W Bush uttered Feb. 14, 2007 at a press conference in which not a single member of the callow, cowed and corrupt press corpse saw fit to ask a follow-up.
While Corporate McPravda ignored the remark and accompanying smirk fir the last seven years, I remember Cindy Sheehan tried to bring it to our nation's attention.
