why can't he stfu so the focus can be the NSA?
He's almost George Zimmerman-like in his constant comments, etc

Are you referring to Snowden's fans?
Yeah, the blind adoration & allegiance to a repubtarian (and a guy who recently defended a KKK wizard) is pretty stunning.

uggh. It's not that simple, Bernie
So many teabaggers have no idea that the Medicaid & Medicare benefits they and/or their families rely on are from the government. Furthermore, they think it's ok to use it themselves, but everyone else who relies on it is a lazy "taker." It's impossible to reason with people who are racist, ignorant, and most importantly selfish.
This idea that all democrats have to do is toss a significant portion of our base under the bus to pick up ignorant folks who still won't get it is preposterous! I used to think that way to back when Howard Dean was running.
