Papa Pope is possibly my favorite character. His speeches are epic.
The biggest problem I have with Bernie on this issue is this: he has presented himself as someone who is unafraid to stand on principle, and has framed Hillary as a politician who takes positions based on political expedience. That’s fine, but his explanation for his gun control record seems a bit hypocritical. Sure,…
He won’t, though. If he was going to win over black voters it would have happened by now. Instead Clinton is dominating.
Yeah I’ve been there many times. Sure is rural. I don’t get why that excuses him from the coded language. He basically was saying, “I live in a state of responsible white gun owners, not criminals” and asserting that explains why he supported immunity for gun manufacturers.
Kim Davis was a registered Democrat until recently for shit’s sake...
As I've said before, the worst thing about Bernie Sanders (and one of the only things I dislike) is his supporters.
“ Leaders of the movement have criticized Clinton for failing to come up with comprehensive plans on criminal justice reform.”
I wonder what they’d say if she hadn’t met with them, too. At this point I’m just starting to accept that there are Clinton haters out there that are going to go out of their way to cast her every action in a negative light.
She probably secretly loves it that those young people died. She probably wishes she had shot them herself.
Two bit cynicism strikes again. It was a two-hour meeting, not a five-minute photo op. It was a two-hour meeting, far superior to zero meetings. It’s important to show this issue is something that she is taking into account.
The truly scary part is, I actually think he does believe it. Even if he didn’t at first. And that’s the same with most of the GOP crazies. They’ve been spouting this bullshit for so long even they believe it now.
I almost clicked on the video, curious to see what shit he was spouting. But then I thought better of it and didn’t, because I’d have had to listen to Glenn fucking Beck.
Never ceases to amuse me how people who hate the government reflexively lick the boots of the government-trained unquestioning killers who give the government its power in the first place.
Ha! Wonder if he’d be the same is it was his child beaten by a cop - He’d call bloody murder that Obama personally ordered it.
“Honey, the website that tells me not to wear shorts in the summer says I need to buy $300 boots for fall.”
I think you might misunderstand what community policing is meant to be. It’s not about letting the police police themselves, or about having more cops playing basketball with kids. It’s about removing police from the equation as much as possible, and giving oversight of police departments to representative members of…
I agree that neither of Sanders nor Clinton came out with a very direct statement. However, there’s a reason only O’Malley made a direct statement. Because he was asked to. These people are all politicians and they all have PR teams advising them on what to say. Either Clinton or Sanders making an unprompted formal…
Just look at the shit you’re getting for this, as though you’ve actually insulted Bernie (which you didn’t)
