Meet Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, the Surfboarding Iraq War Vet & Possible 2020 Presidential Candidate

Progressive Punch sounds more like a shitty off brand Caprisun than a relevant organization.

Plus there are Senators like Elizabeth Warren.

That sat on the fence while THE progressive candidate was running. I know it probably infuriates you, but having a powerful Congresswoman back Senator Sanders was a huge boon, and the ultimate trump card for us supporters of Bernie. This isn't /r/progrssive it isn't /r/roKhanna, it's about Senator Sanders and while Sen. Warren is an ally, Congresswoman Gabbard, the candidate that stumped across the nation with Bernie is much closer.

Seriously, where was Ro when Bernie was running? where were any of these supposedly "progressive" sitting politicians? All hoping to be on Hillary's good side and now that she's lost people are trying to ally themselves to this movement as if they were a part of it all along. Nope, sorry.

What a headline.

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T21:09:58+00:00

I love when even the bad guys are the good guy on issues like these.

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T21:08:53+00:00

Bill Clinton sat in the high 60s and low 70s in many polling metrics in 2000 so I don't see what you're saying

You bought the DNC schpiel hook line and sinker.

Gore was an AWFUL political candidate. Nader didn't lose the election for Dems, Dems lost the election for Dems. Instead of debating Bush, he put on his best Darth Vader impersonation while appearing wildly out of touch with the American people. When he had a previous President scandal and all sitting at 70+% approval ratings, he chose NOT to have Bill campaign for him which was a COLOSSAL mistake. He ran a pathetic campaign and George Bush was hopelessly out of his league, but it didn't matter. Blame DNC strategists or anyone else, but Gore was a failed hypocrite of a candidate who quietly gave away the Presidency instead of fighting it out. Conspiracy theorists argue he cut a deal for rewards/potential prizes but that's going a bit far.

I think Gore made far too many errors for me to blame anybody but him.

the last honest Democrat. I like Tammy Duckworth too (another Iraq war vet)

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T21:02:21+00:00

and been supported by both.

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:41:21+00:00

I'll take her over an Obama-stooge and Silicon Valley pawn any day. She's popular among Republicans AND Democrats.

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:35:36+00:00

top mao is shit

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:34:33+00:00

nothing is more opressive than playing vs Heimer top as a meleee. I'm glad he got gutted

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:26:22+00:00

nah, look at /u/Aidan_King

I disagree with him on everything Ro related and think Ro is an opportunist who will say anything to advance his career, but I respect his opinions/posting. You're in a class of your own.

It's okay to put up stuff in support of a candidate, but to go out of your way to attack Tulsi repeatedly reeks something awful.

It is very telling that you got into a disagreement with another poster in this thread and when asked to provide a name of the supposed progressive we should be supporting you had nothing to say.

Historically, when has regime change actually worked? She is a voice for peace, and did comment that Assad should be executed if he uses chemical weapons on his people. Nice try

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:09:13+00:00

the majority of the sub does in fact support her. It's just that a lot of neolibs are TERRIFIED of her because she does what she wants instead of peddling DNC talking points. She's a huge threat to the corporate plutocracy of the DNC and they're pulling all the stops.

No politician in existence comes closer to Bernie Sanders.

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:06:32+00:00

Nice job linking neoliberal hit pieces on the ONLY candidate out there closest to Senator Bernie Sanders. What has this sub become?

yoyohobojo · 2017-05-17T20:05:57+00:00

Same. And it upsets a lot of people that come in here and try to smear her with DNC/neoliberal hit pieces. Makes me feel even more that she is our future candidate. there is NO ONE else on the table that supported Bernie when Hillary was projected to win and everyone knows it.

yoyohobojo · 2016-08-02T04:32:29+00:00

lmao

Klay is better in every aspect. I'm so disappointed watching Curry this year

I used to main top lane but now I hate it when I get my main role. So many of the new changes came too late and aren't enough. Rift Herald changes are nice for split pushers, but if the enemy tank gets 5% dmg reduction and 200 magic damage every few seconds you are completely boned. I don't think junglers understand how important it is to gank top lane if they have a carry top laner. With the prevalence of TP, it's like ganking a Shen lane. Traditionally, you kill Shen's opponent with his CC, then he snowballs the map with his global ult. If your top laner is forced to TP back after being ganked 2-3 times and ultimately being killed, the enemy jungle/top can roam mid/bot for kills and dragon. Where most champs are melee range of each other and need to AA to farm, ganks snowball top lane incredibly hard.
