(135,425 posts)It's about Ralph "Corporate Pig" Nader, friend of the GOP, Bush enabler, and enemy of progressive causes.
It's not about DINOs--no matter how many times you try to move the goalposts and change the subject from, dare I say, an Inconvenient Truth.
DINOs--if they even exist--aren't the liars, here. Their stances and portfolios are in accord.
Ralphie is the one telling you how free trade and Walmart are bad while he makes money off it. Ralphie's the one telling you that the food supply sucks while he owns stock in McDonald's. Ralphie is the one crabbing about war and getting wealthy off his weapon and military logistics stocks. Ralphie's the anti-worker, pro-war Bush toadie. That's what his money and his investments tell us.
It's just logical that a guy who is heavily invested in the war machine would want the war president to win. That's why he spent all his time (using GOP money) in battleground states. That's why he belittled Democrats and suppressed the vote.
Your pal, your stinking rich, One Percenter buddy, with his portfolio chock-full of "unprogressive" stocks and his personal fiefdom "non-profits" stuffed with his "donations" to beat the tax man, worked very hard for Dubya and his hard work was rewarded--he became even more wealthy under the Bush regime.
So you go on and "own" that. And stop insisting it's about DINOS when it is all about Ralphie. Start your own thread if you want to whine about DINOs.
