Yeah, I’m a Bernie fan, but even I agree with everything you’ve written here.

Repeat the mistake with Warren? I can't possibly believe electing Warren would be a mistake. 

You have to respect how they work together to bring down prey. 

The only reason to bring that up is for the express purpose of nagging everyone she’s guilty of the mortal sin of not being Bernie.

Meanwhile:

and the one candidate with clear momentum faces persistent doubts among some party leaders that she is too liberal female to win the general election.

I can think one wing of the Democratic Party that doesn’t want to support Warren.  Hell, they’d rather support...well...I’ll let one explain:

I think she’s also the only frontrunner whose polling hasn’t bounced around - it seems to me to be a sign that her support is steadfast and that every time she opens her mouth more people like her.

I’m just gonna come out and say it, Elizabeth Warren’s problem is having the audacity of being a woman. That’s it, that’s really it.

How did Tomato get ungreyed? At the time I am typing this, there were no stars by this reply, so nobody promoted it.

Sorry, Katherine, but I for one am looking forward to another sequel to Dumb & Dumber.

HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF IRAQI CIVILIANS ARE FUCKING DEAD BECAUSE OF THIS PIECE OF SHIT SO YOU CAN FUCKING MISS ME WITH YOUR ORANGE MAN BAD BULLSHIT YOU INSIPID FUCKING MORON.

I don’t think the gap between the two is vast; just huge horrors in different fields of domestic and foreign policies. They are horrible on levels unprecedented in the modern US political history, but in categorically different terms:

Smashing your dick with a hammer is better than contracting Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer, but I’m going to steer clear of it anyway. 

[Sigh]

The whitewashing is more a function of historical amnesia than it is any real desire to put Dubbya on a pedestal, I think. The American electorate—broadly speaking—has the attention span of a meth-addled toddler, and a predilection for rosy coloring in their nostalgia goggles, particularly when faced with something…

I know, right? Trump hasn’t gotten us into a single illegal war, why would anyone think he is worse than Bush?

Ohhhhh...you meant the comparison in the other direction.  Wow. Maybe go re-read some history. 

This is an extremely bad and dumb and wrong take. Bush is absolutely worse than Trump, he just wasn’t as much of an ostentatious, out-and-out asshole about it. GTFOH with this nonsense.  If you’d “happily” take Bush over Trump, then you were never paying any attention. 

G-Dub is a war criminal. Fuck anyone who gives him a pass.

One of the things I resent the most about Trump is how is bombastic awfulness has generally made people forget how odious Bush was. Bush is a goddam war criminal, but his image is already being rehabilitated just by virtue of not being Trump.
