http://www.breitbart.com/2016-presi...-voters-for-having-bought-into-false-promise/ Sooooo.....Bernie supporters are naive children with half-baked ideas about a world they don't really understand. That's a pretty apt description of several foks here. Wasn't that dipshit 14th DoucheBag a Bernie lover too? How does this make Garamet feel?
The actual quote: "It is important to recognize what’s going on in this election. Everybody who’s ever been in an election that I’m aware of is quite bewildered because there is a strain of, on the one hand, the kind of populist, nationalist, xenophobic, discriminatory kind of approach that we hear too much of from the Republican candidates. And on the other side, there’s just a deep desire to believe that we can have free college, free healthcare, that what we’ve done hasn’t gone far enough, and that we just need to, you know, go as far as, you know, Scandinavia, whatever that means, and half the people don’t know what that means, but it’s something that they deeply feel. “So as a friend of mine said the other day, I am occupying from the center-left to the center-right. And I don’t have much company there. Because it is difficult when you’re running to be president, and you understand how hard the job is — I don’t want to overpromise. I don’t want to tell people things that I know we cannot do. “Some are new to politics completely. They’re children of the Great Recession. And they are living in their parents’ basement. They feel they got their education and the jobs that are available to them are not at all what they envisioned for themselves. And they don’t see much of a future. I met with a group of young black millennials today and you know one of the young women said, “You know, none of us feel that we have the job that we should have gotten out of college. And we don’t believe the job market is going to give us much of a chance.” “So that is a mindset that is really affecting their politics. And so if you’re feeling like you’re consigned to, you know, being a barista, or you know, some other job that doesn’t pay a lot, and doesn’t have some other ladder of opportunity attached to it, then the idea that maybe, just maybe, you could be part of a political revolution is pretty appealing. “So I think we should all be really understanding of that and should try to do the best we can not to be, you know, a wet blanket on idealism. We want people to be idealistic. We want them to set big goals. But to take what we can achieve now and try to present them as bigger goals.”
Mmm hmmmm....yeah, we know what she said. How does it feel to hear her slag Bernie as a con man selling false promises, and his converts as naive clueless children living in their parents' basements?
Bernie was way too "outside the box" for the status quo to accept. No fucking way our society as we know it wouldn't shut him down, and they did.
So, Garamet is going with the Rodney King defense. "What you just saw on the tape isn't what you think you saw." Never change Margaret. Never change.
BTW - if you believe that the system is rigged, that your government is corrupt, that you have no opportunities for success or advancement in this life despite your education that you had to go into massive debt to finance..... Isn't that when the young *should* start a political revolution and feed establishment hacks like Hillary to the wolves?
Which of us were you addressing, or did you simply start one reply, get distracted, and create some sort of incoherent mashup? Since you evoke my name every time you're here, but know nothing about me, I could very well be one of those Millennials Hillary was referring to in her speech, though I've never worked as a barista. Comparing your reading skills to Rodney King's does not work in your favor, BTW.
Aw, dammit, these fuggin' thread titles keep tricking me. I was expecting.... Hillary - (stops talking about whatever she was talking about, and randomly shifts over to..) ...and "Catalyst Of Sorrows", is made of ka-ka!! *Lights it on fire, and stomps on it with lesbian shoes* garamet- (at home watching) NO!!!! It's!! Not!! Ka-ka!!! Don't you say it!! Don't!! You!! ...DOODY HEAD!!!! DOODY STUPID!!!!! Now, that would have at least been interesting. Fuggin' Flashlight, never delivers the goods.
