Bernie's In

Reality is not always funny.

He sounds too much like Rush Limbaugh for me to listen past he 20 second mark. Have a transcript?

Don't bother, the Facegroup group shutdown of Sanders groups seems to have been a FB bug and they were all restored quickly. Here is all the information on that story:

I actually subscribe to Kyle Kulinski. He and the Young Turks were actually not bad until they got onto the Hillary Is The Enemy bit.

I might go back to them once they get over it. The Young Turks I am a little suspicious of. They took a $5 Million loan from a financial group headed by conservative GOPer Buddy Roemer, and suddenly they turn around and trash Hillary as the worst. Not just not as good as Bernie, but the enemy. Since the conservatives want to face Sanders instead of Hillary, or get Sanders supporters to vote for someone else besides Hillary in November, this is a little suspicious.

Culmination of the article on snopes:

King claimed a number of groups were affected by a Facebook glitch, not just pro-Sanders groups. However, Facebook didn't address the bug officially, leading many to believe the outages were politically motivated and not related to malfunctioning technology. Facebook hasn't confirmed King's assertion, nor did he disclose how he learned of the purported bug.

I call bullshit on the story. I think it was politically motivated.

Of course you do.

I do not know this man but he sure does have a good point of view.

Many rumors are able to spread quick. I wonder if the porn was true or made up.

I saw screenshots and people claiming to have done that but ultimately the groups being shut down part of the story might still be separate from the attempts to harm the groups by posting porn to them and reporting it.

Want to talk about Bill Clinton the rapist?

Of course you don't.

I wonder what affect the movie Clinton Cash will have on voters.

I think I'll post a pic of myself on the door at the local theater and warn them not to let me in. I don't think I can stand to know any more about them.

I'm still a little surly over the Big Short...and ******* Arizona.

And goddamn Massachusetts.

Maybe this inspirational add will cheer you up.

Haha!!! *dancing* We started our unit on poetry today, and I was so jazzed at how we kicked it off.

We're watching this tomorrow, and thank you *curtseys* I'll grin at you while I watch them watch this.

Let me share one we saw today. We were talking about "expression," and how even our most embarrassing trait or secret can be wrestled around and transformed into something beautiful that can change someone's life. They were riveted.

We saw an excellent TedTalk where this MC gave quotes and asked us to vote if the quote came from rap or Shakespeare. We got them all wrong. The kids were mesmerized. Then, he rapped Shakespeare's Sonnet 18. Saucer-eyed kids. A good day. Hope I can keep up the interest.

Thank for contributing.

I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired of media stories and pundits telling me the Democratic race is over. Baloney. The race isn't over until it's over. Bernie still has a shot.
The Democratic establishment is declaring the race over because it wants to create a self-fulfilling prophecy. If Bernie supporters believe it's over, they'll stop contributing to him, stop showing up for him, stop voting for him and urging others to do so.
What the Democratic establishment doesn't get is that Bernie's campaign isn't just a primary campaign. It's a movement. And that movement won't be cowed by premature declarations Bernie's candidacy is over. That movement will finish this race, and then continue to build momentum. It's a marathon.

Polls on Bernie and Hillary?

Little Bernie is out...But where is all the money the man received from the public?
