So is Elizabeth Warren completely under the bus now?

[snooper2]

At that poorly formatted JPR site I found a couple OP where they not only threw her under the bus but backed over her and pulled forward- twice!


Guess we aren't supposed to link to that place right?

[MineralMan]

1. No, she's not. And won't be.

[geek tragedy]

2. that place is an insult to the great DUer whose name they appropriated.

there are threads there about Hillary being a secret lesbian, numerous people talking about how Trump is a better choice than Clinton, people calling Clinton the B-word and C-bomb.

the man who used that name here would never have associated himself with that kind of garbage.

So, who cares what the inmates at some unprincipled asylum think of Warren? She's proven herself to be smart and principled.

[Cali_Democrat]

9. Yep.....

Many of them are hoping that Trump beats Hillary.

[SheenaR]

11. I agree with much of what you said

but the Secretary's sexuality is not off limits for public discussion. It SHOULD be, but it is not. She is running for the most powerful job in the world. I don't care who she fancies, but let's not pretend JPR invented that story either.

[geek tragedy]

15. it's off-limits in places where people haven't gone batshit insane.

while it's true that, technically, nothing is off-limits in the age of Trump, that doesn't mean that everything is a legitimate subject of public interest

[SheenaR]

17. Like I said

it should be off limits.

[democrattotheend]

44. Sorry, what is JPR?

It's probably obvious but I can't place it.

[geek tragedy]

45. anti-Clinton site named after Jackpine Radical, who was one of my favorite DUers

before he was taken from us.

He was a die-hard Bernie supporter, but never lost the plot

[Blue_Tires]

47. I thought I was your favorite DUer?

[geek tragedy]

48. "one of"

[DrDan]

46. jack pine radicals

[LexVegas]

3. Yes. She joins many civil rights icons, a large number of minority voters and good progressives. nt

[KingFlorez]

4. That site is sad

But everyone needs a safe, comfortable place for escapism.

[SheenaR]

10. Explain how that site

and its contents are different that what gets posted in the private Hillary group. There's some real vile shit in there sometimes, and I hope you condemn that as well.

[KingFlorez]

12. And everything always comes back to Clinton

Build a bridge and get over it.

[SheenaR]

13. Sorry King

I just don't throw stones in my glass house. Wish you would follow suit. It's not about Clinton at all. It's about the hate that comes from the group that bears her name. Thanks though.

[KingFlorez]

21. Nothing is posted there that is as bad as the craziness on pro-Sanders sites

Particularly the ridiculous conspiracy theories.

[BobbyDrake]

22. Don't throw stones, but maybe offer some evidence?

You hardly seem impartial, so what are the "vile" comments, exactly? Where's your links?

[ismnotwasm]

6. "Most folks"

Are certain Hillary will be impeached? Is that the current thinking then? Who thinks this-- let me google that..


Google isn't pretty on this issue.

[TwilightZone]

14. "she's certain Hillary will be impeached (as are most folks)"

That's one of the sillier assertions I've seen on DU this entire cycle. Congrats.

[TwilightZone]

7. Eh, it's just a tiny minority of Sanders supporters. In the real world, most Dems have a very

positive view of her, particularly after she took Trump to task.

[SheenaR]

8. I don't think she should be under the bus

I would like to know though how she can so quickly champion someone who espouses what she rails against (specifically Wall St). If it's just to defeat Trump, I'd rather her say that no matter the disagreements she has with the Secretary, it is better than electing Trump. A full on lovefest is slightly more confusing to the Sanders supporters.

That's just my honest take. YMMV

[Orsino]

16. In the sense that I still would love her to be president, yes.

But not in the sense that "under the bus" usually means.

[BobbyDrake]

18. JackSquatFanaticals, is what I call that dumpster fire.

In honor of all they've ever accomplished.

It's a loser site for losers to wallow in their loserness. Give them a few weeks to whine, though, and they'll be back to doxxing female tech reporters like they were before they discovered politics.

The opinions expressed in this post are targeted exclusively at members of that other site, the human open septic tank JackSquatFanaticals. No DU members were harmed during the production of this post.

[zappaman]

19. That place....UGH

The Hillary hate is out of control there, but they claim to be "progressive"!


"If there's any cosmic justice, maybe she will just stroke out"

[NCTraveler]

24. The person who wrote that has proven themselves to be a sick fuck. nt.

[zappaman]

25. I look at that site as a sister site to Conservative Cave or Free Republic.

It's sad to see what happens to people when hate rules.

[geek tragedy]

50. the big debate there is Jill Stein vs Donald Trump.

Lovely people.

[Nye Bevan]

20. They're saying "f" her over there, but I haven't seen them calling her the "c" word yet,

as they have Hillary, so I guess that's something. (And the "c" word is not "corporatist" btw).

[greatauntoftriplets]

33. I've seen it more than once over there.

[floriduck]

30. Jesus, give it a break.

See my post below these

[floriduck]

35. My point is that it is unnecessary. Hillary will get her nomination. So why all the name calling?

In other words, are you just posting to stir up shit? Your candidate will win. Show some class and stop attacking.

[floriduck]

37. Because you relate them to all SBS supporters. If you left that off, I'd cut you slack.

[floriduck]

39. Here, let me help you.

Part of OP "At that poorly formatted JPR site" which you know is made up of Sanders supporters.

Then you add "They are open to racists, bigots, and misogynists. They are very open about it."

Tell me what I'm missing? Better yet, leave me alone.

[floriduck]

41. Exactly what I thought. Shit stirring is what you're doing. Bye

[NCTraveler]

42. Not at all. You keep saying that without knowing what it means.

Calling racists racists, bigots bigots, and misogynists misogynists is not shit stirring as you say.

[bigwillq]

26. Not with me (nt)

[TDale313]

27. I'm a Sanders supporter, and I think Sen Warren is fantastic.

Not under the bus by me.

[floriduck]

29. Not with me. She's a fighter and supports important causes.

[CorkySt.Clair]

34. Have they called her the C word yet?

I hear they allow that over at JPR.

But it's just "girl talk" as I was told by a Sanders supporter who posts here at DU as well.

[democrattotheend]

43. No. Not to me at least

In my opinion, nobody goes under the bus for endorsing Hillary after she had locked up a majority of the pledged delegates. If anything people like Warren and the president get credit for not jumping in before that.

But I have not really thrown anyone under the bus except Barney Frank, and he had done and said some other things that pissed me off prior to his attacks on Bernie.

[mcar]

49. That is just sad
