Hillary, Bill, Obama All Tossed Under the BSer Bus

Hard to believe these are Democrats writing these things at DU. Bill Clinton and President Obama are now terrible, R-lite presidents according to BSers on DU.

And Trump is a better alternative than Hillary.

Shameful.

Not just hard to believe - impossible to believe.


But then, you can be anyone you want to be on the internet.

In fact, most of them admit that Bernie brought them into the conversation-which is great. That being said, to ridicule a party or our party leaders who've worked their asses off in order to move our country forward, is ignorant.

My greatest frustration-where were these people in 2010??? Where was Bernie Sanders in 2010? All these people say that they care, that they're demanding a political revolution, where were they?

Bernie says that if he falls short of his goal to become the democratic nominee, then he will work to rebuild the democratic party. Well 2018 is just around the corner, so I fully expect his revolution to start doing the heavy lifting that we've been doing all along.

There were 400 Bernie supporters at my caucus. When the time came to volunteer to be on the county committee, only 6 stepped forward (there were 60 openings).

If it requires more effort than posting a Facebook meme, they back down.

Some revolution.

This is the problem. The intention is good, but it takes a lot more... An executive savior will not create the change they are demanding, it takes work and compromise.

Democrats don't do that to Democrats.

All the BSers will try and tell you that he is more Democratic than all the others but then we see shit like this and some of the other not so real Democratic things he and his campaign have done.

to discredit being a Dem.. they won't succeed. President Obama @ 53% and Hillary the next POTUS will see to that.

... will not take care if itself. It will not go away on its own. The "community" is so mathematically unbalanced that it will only get worse without decisive, authoritative, unambiguous and unmistakable intervention.

it's older but very timely now. Remember the name "American Crossroads." They aren't Democrats, believe me.

most of these people have low post counts and no stars. They wants to bash and rant and rave and smear on this Democratic site, don't support the DNC or any of our leaders or other candidates, but most are simply agitators and they are here for a reason.
