I def played with dolls at 9. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with it. Ain’t nothin’ wrong with being a citizen journalist, either.

Yeah, Susan, the idea is to progress without The Actual By God Blood-in-the-Streets Revolution. You want Trump picking some Supreme Court justices and pushing the entirety of progress back by a couple generations?

This is such a wildly privileged opinion. Real people will get hurt under Trump. SCOTUS will be changed. Laws will be passed. The military will be deployed, affecting people around the globe. I get that you want a different political system but this is the one we live in. Don’t throw others under the bus in your quest…

I posted this long rant in response to another commenter who insinuated that if Hillary wins the nomination, she’ll lose the general because Sanders supporters will stay home because they won’t “sell out”. I think it bears posting out here in the wild:

Ummm... from Bernie’s FEC filing covering the month of February.

Seriously. And Bernies refusal to help raise money for down ballot dems while still seeking the nomination of the party he shits all over at every opportunity is the biggest reason I think he's a fucking douche bag. If he were so goddam idealistic he'd be running as an Independent. He wants the microphone and stage…

What the fuck has bernie sanders ever done for the DNC and the rest of the democratic down ticket candidates in his entire shit shoveling lifetime ?

Stuff like this demonstrates what a fucking child Bernie Sanders is and why we need an actual grown-up like Hillary Clinton in the White House. Sanders can be the President of Tumblr instead.

Of course. Also, Bernie Sanders, the great Truth Teller, is being disingenuous here. George Clooney is not a Super PAC. He’s a liberal Democrat who’s supporting Hillary this year. Bernie probably doesn’t realize that, since he’s not actually a member of the Democratic party.

She’s not claiming anything. Her campaign literally can’t keep that kind of money to itself even if it wanted to. And the intended recipients are not just the DNC. The money is also going to state parties as well which have their own donation caps.

You mean that people from local races are more likely to support the person who is helping fund their campaign? The ignominy!

A lot of Clinton supporters are quiet, to the point of silence (except with a ballot). We don’t want to offend Sanders supporters and don’t want to deal with the barrage of comments we would receive in certain places, so we stay quiet. Fortunately, there are more of us than there are Sanders voters. It just doesn’t…

Oh good lord, seriously? People can do what they want with their money. Jeez.
