Maybe Obama should go give a speech at the right-wing hate school Liberty University.

...you know, the university run by the Falwells...instead of speaking to a financial firm who lost nearly 70% of their workforce on 9/11 and committed to paying the health care of every family member of those lost for ten years.

Bernie spoke there, so it's hallowed ground... VOX Apr 2017 #7

How much did they pay Bernie for speaking there? nt m-lekktor Apr 2017 #8

As I am sure you are aware, current office holders like Bernie can't charge speaking fees. emulatorloo Apr 2017 #11

even when it's comparing him to the previous president (who is the main subject of the post), rather than to his primary opponent.

I think that if the democrats want to win elections, we need to adop a "fuck it" attitude.

GOP complains that you're raising taxes on the wealthy? Fuck it.

GOP complains that your vacation costs too much? Fuck it.

GOP complains that you like to spend your weekends golfing and enjoying life? Fuck it.

See how much better that sounds? So those assholes are going to complain no matter what we do. I think we just need to ignore them and say "fuck it".
