I'm gonna hazard a guess that the average Bernie supporter doesn't pass the screening for membership in the club. But hey, I'm open to being proved wrong, if people want to go try to have a beer there and report back.

It is called a business...I'll take that over Hillary selling herself for cash. virtualobserver Mar 2016 #1

Umm, Hillary has donated and done much more for charity than Susan ever has. DanTex Mar 2016 #6
Susan didn't say that, so you "misspoke"....Hillary didn't earn a dime of the money.... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #11
She certainly did. DanTex Mar 2016 #13
If she "earned" her money, then she works for the investment banks and Big Pharma..... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #15
She gave speeches for a lot of different organizations. DanTex Mar 2016 #16
You got that right....a lot. virtualobserver Mar 2016 #18
That's correct. And conspiracy theories from the left-wing fringe notwithstanding, DanTex Mar 2016 #19
When did open, legalized bribery become a conspiracy? virtualobserver Mar 2016 #20
Calling paid speeches "legalized bribery" without a trace of evidence is a conspiracy theory. DanTex Mar 2016 #24
only when people are running for political office virtualobserver Mar 2016 #26
Umm... which she wasn't doing at the time. DanTex Mar 2016 #27
no, I object to money being shot at her with a fire hose just before she runs virtualobserver Mar 2016 #32
Before she was running, she had a right to earn a living like anyone else. DanTex Mar 2016 #33
Thanks for continuing to confirm that she earned a living working for "too big to fail" banks.... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #35
Only a small part of her earnings came from financial institutions. DanTex Mar 2016 #37
Since Susan didn't say that....you can't claim ignorance either.... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #41
She's on video. The only one being ignorant here is you. DanTex Mar 2016 #43
Having money shot at you with a fire hose isn't a job. virtualobserver Mar 2016 #45
No, but giving speeches is. DanTex Mar 2016 #47
Tonight Hillary Clinton is in New York City at a fundraiser with the former CFO...... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #54

She's in Harlem this morning at the Apollo Theatre, speaking at a free rally. Tanuki Mar 2016 #70
I'm pointing out what I disagree with.....not detailing her schedule virtualobserver Mar 2016 #72
When asked if she'd vote for HRC she said.. Fla Dem Mar 2016 #65

This whole thread is really dumb. rogerashton Mar 2016 #131
I agree there's a difference between working and selling out. DanTex Mar 2016 #132

Just like everyone--Hillary does the work and gets paid. Simple as that. riversedge Mar 2016 #30
It is just that simple....."that's what they offered" virtualobserver Mar 2016 #34

And you have made a cottage industry of Clinton bashing Cary Mar 2016 #49
I just don't want a President aligned with corporate America..... virtualobserver Mar 2016 #56

Right. If you're correct I will stand corrected. Cary Mar 2016 #120
I don't know who "you all" is- nor what reaction to Obama that you are speaking of notadmblnd Mar 2016 #126
Not presumptive at all Cary Mar 2016 #133
Sanders supporters are no more simple minded fucks than Hillary supporters are. notadmblnd Mar 2016 #149

I wasn't going to respond but unapatriciated Mar 2016 #134

Are you not also insulting the young voters supporting Clinton with the daily vollies of abuse, synergie Mar 2016 #123
Yes, but I don't buy his or her allegations Cary Mar 2016 #136
It's absolutely not generational. synergie Mar 2016 #150
I have never said anything close to what you claim. unapatriciated Mar 2016 #138
Actually, you're the one writing us off, along with the BS camp and the media which synergie Mar 2016 #151
Where do I start. unapatriciated Mar 2016 #155

Wait - did I miss something?? Is Susan Sarandon running for office?? jmg257 Mar 2016 #3
She became the face of Trump enablers on the privileged far left with her inane comments on MSNBC. DanTex Mar 2016 #9
So many who miss the point of what she said unapatriciated Mar 2016 #104
I think it looks like fun. If you have a half dozen people, $99 doesn't seem too bad. cyberswede Mar 2016 #5
Interesting, someone who lives with and profits from the 1%, and seems to know how they are. TheBlackAdder Mar 2016 #8
bwahahahaha DemonGoddess Mar 2016 #14
far left fringe G_j Mar 2016 #21
A lot of Bernie or Busters are right-wingers trolling, but Susan is definitely left-wing fringe. DanTex Mar 2016 #23
the way you lump "far" left and right together G_j Mar 2016 #124
It's called the "horseshoe theory" -- if you get far enough on either side, they become similar. DanTex Mar 2016 #125
bullshit G_j Mar 2016 #127
This 'attack the home of wealthy liberals' routine is the 'Al Gore's House' attack honed by those Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #29
As are the attacks on George Clooney for holding a Democratic fundraiser mcar Mar 2016 #48
Yeah, I don't do that. So what's your point? Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #50
You just have to keep agitating that metabolic byproducts container don't you? hobbit709 Mar 2016 #25
This trope is Dixie Chicks meets Al Gore's House.... Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #28
I don't recall either of them talking about how great it would be for Trump to become president DanTex Mar 2016 #31
Of course Sarandon did not say that either, you did. Your attack tactic is 'Dixie Chicks + Al Gore's Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #39
Yes, she did. And the Dixie Chicks comparison is absurd, because I'm not an industry group DanTex Mar 2016 #42
No she didn't. If she did, you would quote her instead of characterizing. Again here you bleat but Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #53
LOL. "Reformed addict". I've had a lot of personal attacks by Bernie or Busters, but that's a new DanTex Mar 2016 #68

Now, like all reformed addicts, you lash out at others who say they don't care for Hillary. frylock Mar 2016 #79
Where is the quote? You are what you bleat. Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #62
Right here. DanTex Mar 2016 #67
Your claim was that she said 'how great it would be for Trump to become President'. She said no such Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #78
She hid it behind the old "some people say" but, yes, she did say that Trump DanTex Mar 2016 #85
What you claimed she said she did not say. What she said was something else entirely. Bluenorthwest Mar 2016 #92
I paraphrased her accurately, and added slight emphasis. DanTex Mar 2016 #96

Not to mention the right-wingers on DU constantly smearing Hillary for her wealth. DanTex Mar 2016 #100
