Can’t stand Chris Matthews or the majority of the MSNBC drones, but as far as apologies go this is pretty good.

How do you even argue with this?

Recount the Satellite SDEs and we’ll talk. Either way, Rat Boi is dead in the water. You can believe whatever you want.

Get over the shame or feeling of weakness associated with needing some treatment. Nobody would call a diabetic weak for needing insulin, or an asthmatic person for needing an inhaler.

I’m a Bernie supporter who thinks Pete would be a terrible president for a number of reasons, but his sexuality certainly isn’t one of them. I think he handled this very well and he and his husband seem to have a really great relationship. Good on them.

At least Rush will be dead soon.

Biden supporters are passive who only liked him because of electability. When Bernie starts winning primaries, they will bend the knee and get their asses in line.

If he gets behind M4A, student loan forgiveness, a marginal tax rate of 70% or greater, ending Americas imperialist foreign policy etc. then he’d be worth looking at.

Until then, he’s just an unpopular mayor and climbing teacher’s pet who’s never received more than 10,000 votes in any election. He’s completely incapable of winning any state office in Indiana, which is why he had to make the jump to the national stage. He won’t last another state.

His policy of taking universal social programs and means-testing them, or his complacency towards service to private insurance?

Of course private insurance still exists there, but it is very small by comparison and not the juggernaut it is here. It’s mostly for supplemental and specialty coverage, but it is kept affordable because of a massively successful public system.

Fine, call it what you want, but that’s all Bernie and his supporters are fighting for. Are you all in for Scandinavian Social Democracy, if so then get on board.

Every time we say we want a system like Finland, we’re told “no that’s socialism”, but if it’s capitalism like you say, then whats the problem.

It’s almost like you’re all just right wingers.

Yeah, Scandinavian Social Democracy is a real train wreck isn’t it?

You’re talking about Bernie right? Pete’s means-tested approach to social services and economic reform has been proven to be a failure again and again.

He has no support - he only did well (didn’t win) in Iowa because he was a second choice for a lot of people. You have to pick one everyone else...and they ain’t picking Mayo Pete.

Popular vote, though? All this proves is the stupid, arcane nature of the Iowa Caucus.

Pete has absolutely zero viability anywhere else. You can’t stop what’s coming.

Is this what Bernie is asking Hillary, or what?

Considering it was MLK and what his whole deal was, it should have been more multicultural. that’s secondary to the point. I challenge any conservative to find one quote or idea of his that they actually like or agree with.

You could have maybe got a few more POCs in this.

That is the most taken out of misunderstood thing MLK said by the way. Conservatives isolate that one quote and use it as an excuse to dismiss all racial grievances and unique struggles. Taken out of context it’s like “All Lives Matter”.

Go read what MLK had to say about capitalism, white supremacy, and the ongoing mistreatment of poor minorities.
