This is going to feel like a quibble, but it feeds into an existing (and not inaccurate) narrative about Bernie.

This is a perfect illustration of my point. Obama is still being dragged like he didn’t try.
Honestly, when so much of the immediate change will be dependent on executive action; I’m more confident in a law professor who specialized in consumer law making those changes in ways to protect them from the next Republican to take office.
Bernie has never lit a fire for me, I have to say. I find it interesting how powerful people’s perspective proves to be - Bernie lovers are convinced he’s for the people, while other camps are convinced he’s an egomaniac. Yet both groups point to his actions/words/etc as proof.
I was thinking this exact thing the other day. I like Bernie - he’s my second choice, probably. But like...guys....if you think he can live up to the expectations you’re placing upon him...even if we win EVERY questionable Senate seat and the House...guys....it’s not going to turn out like you think. (Personally, this…
Perhaps I’ve been too scarred by the false hope of the Obama years, when so much optimism and excitement and energy quickly curdled and went sour after candidate Obama became President Obama, and he abandoned the grassroots campaign that had powered his victory.

I just want to say that the historian Dan Jones who is quoted in this story is delightful. He’s done several documentaries and wrote a good book on the Crusades. If there’s any good to come out of this, then I hope more people check him out.
Times like this, I’m really struggling with how this whole thing works out.
Whomst among us did not weep openly when that tree the cat people liked fell down?
Oh yeah, I have a similar pair that my loved ones refer to as my ‘troll clogs’. I think these Pumas are kind of sexy, although there is something to be said for statement man-repellers in the hygge domicile.
I do not want this. TATBILB was a beautiful story about what it means to actually love someone versus what it means to have a crush and I DON’T WANT TO WATCH THEM BREAK UP!
I don’t live in Los Angeles, so I don’t know the exact demographics of the district he’s running in, but it can’t possibly be good politics to run an Armenian genocide agnostic (a couple years ago he “evolved” to the point that he officially doesn’t know for sure if the genocide happened or not, which just barely…
the performance is pure Sedaris—an idiosyncratic, slightly grotesque woman who would probably breathe on your baby in line at the supermarket.

Remember the cute video of Bo the dog inspecting the WH christmas decorations? That’s how you do a video christmas card. I assume it was by Pete Souza, that man is a genius photographer, and I’m glad he doesn’t work for Trump
