Dennis Berube Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Not that we would know this from our media, but Tulsi is still in the race. Can anyone say that $40k of facebook ads did more to interfere with democracy than the DNC/corporate media's handling of Tulsi Gabbard's entire presidency?

Joe Bauer Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) In this 60 Minute TV interview Bloomberg won't admit making crude misogynist comments about women. He claims ( or pretends? ) he "doesn't remember" saying them. But yet, he keeps saying he is sorry if his comments hurt anyone. He also claims he understands the daily struggles of working class and poorer Americans because his father only made $6,000 in yearly income in the late 1940's and early fifties. Equivalent to $60,000 to $70,000 in today's income. His boyhood home in Medford, MA ( which he still owns) looks like a $750,000 home today. His father mortgaged their home for $11,000 ( huge amount back then ) to put Bloomberg and his sister through college. Yes, it sure sounds like Bloomberg's "extremely rough" childhood does qualify him to truly understand the stresses of today's everyday working Americans living on middle class and lower level incomes and who more and more can't help their children pay the now astronomical costs of college without their children feeling pressured into assuming usury, life long payback stress levels of student loan debt . 60 BILLION dollar personal wealth, three time "Republican" mayor of NYC Bloomberg ( who voted "against" raising the minimum wage ) is the antithesis of a truly sympathetic working middle and lower income class representing Democratic party candidate. WATCH LATER ADD TO QUEUE Mike Bloomberg says he's sorry if he made comments that hurt women 60 Minutes If I annoyed somebody or hurt somebody I apologize, I can't go rewrite history ...

Like the way they kept her off the stage and then changed the rules to get Mikey on. Perez has been a nightmare. Obama knew what he was doing putting him at the DNC, sort of like making Johannides the contact man to the HSCA.

Dennis Berube Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 3 hours ago, James DiEugenio said: Like the way they kept her off the stage and then changed the rules to get Mikey on. Exactly. Im not sure how Democrats can just gloss over this type of action which has been consistent since at least 2016 against Bernie and now Tulsi. It goes against core principles the party allegedly stands for (equality, justice, etc...) Imagine if Tulsi went one on one with Trump? I believe only the democratic party and their “liberal” media could have stopped her, and they did. The cover story for some of this meddling seems to be “We need to defeat Donald Trump at all costs and a centrist is the only way to do so”. I believe the reality is that the party simply doesnt represent those progressive political ideologies anymore. Identity politics typically doesnt affect international covert operations or the financial sector graft that so cripples us. The Clinton faction does everything possible to make sure those areas arent touched or just get a politically mollifying lip service. 3 hours ago, James DiEugenio said: Perez has been a nightmare. Obama knew what he was doing putting him at the DNC, sort of like making Johannides the contact man to the HSCA. If you look at Keith Ellisons (the other option for DNC chair in 2017) political positions and compare that to Perez, it is yet another sign of just how reactionary the party has become. In my opinion, its just one more way the Clinton/Obama faction maintains the status quo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W. Niederhut Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 18 hours ago, James DiEugenio said: Its worse than that William. Biden has continually misrepresented what he said and did: https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/06/politics/fact-check-biden-iraq-war-repeat-iowa/index.html What really bothers me about this is that Biden always tried to come off as some kind of foreign policy guru with loads of experience and insight. Yet, any idiot could have seen that 1.) The neocons were lying their heads off about both the yellowcake and the link to terrorism 2.) It was going to be incredibly expensive and 3.) You ran the risk of unleashing Islamic fundamentalism. So why did Biden vote for it and why is he trying to cover it up? Exactly. Biden and his backers in the Democratic establishment always brag about his great foreign policy experience, gravitas, and expertise, etc., while glossing over the fact that he (and Hillary) signed off on one of the worst foreign policy blunders in American history-- Bush & Cheney's multi-trillion dollar demolition of Iraq. Biden and Hillary were also party to the Obama administration's implementation of CIA Operation Timber Sycamore n Syria, which resulted in the demolition of multiple Syrian cities, (including Damascus and Homs) mass civilian casualties, and an enormous refugee crisis which is still in process. Not to mention Libya and Yemen. All things considered, Joe Biden should get an "F" in foreign affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Bauer Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 (edited) Fox News is hosting a Michael Bloomberg Town Hall tonight ( nationally broadcast ) on the eve of the Super Tuesday voting? What? Fox News? Since when does Fox News give a Democratic primary presidential candidate ( not even a top two leading contender one) such a great, perfectly timed and apparently positive promoting huge exposure platform the night before the most important primary voting day in the entire campaign? What is going on here? If Fox News is promoting Michael Bloomberg over the other Democratic candidates you gotta wonder why? Like Bloomberg may not be a Democrat after all? On the eve of Super Tuesday, anchors Bret Baier, Martha MacCallum and the former New York City mayor plan to focus on issues important to voters, Fox News said in a press release. The event is sold out, but for those with tickets, doors open at 4:30 p.m. and will close promptly at 6 p.m., approximately 30 minutes prior to the show. The town hall will be televised live on Fox News Channel from 6:30-7:30 p.m. “I could not be more proud that FOX News Channel continues to be a critical platform for all key candidates in the 2020 presidential election," Fox News President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace said in a statement. "With the largest TV news audience in the country, we are eager to continue offering viewers a robust conversation with the top players in contention for the Democratic nomination." Mike Bloomberg. The 60 Billion Dollar Man. Like he needs the exposure help after spending a mind boggling half billion dollars already trying to rest the Democratic party presidential nomination from the progressive primary vote leaders. These Democrat progressives are his most feared political ideological enemies. Not Republican Donald Trump. Last night Bloomberg gets national exposure coverage on CBS's 60 Minutes. Tonight it's Fox News. Both within just 48 hours of Super Tuesday? Sanders, Biden and Elizabeth Warren would give up sex for such fortuitous and perfectly timed national exposure coverage.

Crimea is a beautiful, well frequented resort area. They did not want any part of being tied in with a bunch of criminals and Fascists. Its that simple. I have CV on ignore because he is a broken record on the JFK case: Harriman and JFK's custom shirts. I started yawning on that stuff about five years ago. On this issue, we may as well be listening to the Podesta Group or NY Times. So its the same thing. The examples above are what he thinks is "ass kicking". 😉 Therefore he is also an egotist. Why waste the time on someone I consider a t-r-o-l-l. How's that Russian gun rights movement progressing, by the way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
