In reply to the discussion: THANK YOU BERNIE SANDERS for speaking the blatant truth when so many won't [View all]MuseRider
(34,111 posts)All these carefully written and worded, often times almost tomes with links to all sorts of horrors, are like waving your arm around to remove a bothering fly. Bernie is going to Bernie and thank god for Bernie being Bernie. There are too many people who appreciate him and/or support him for all the waving arms on DU to matter. He is part of the whole and trying to keep it from tipping all the way over into RW territory. He is not alone he is just willing to go out there and talk about it and it sure annoys a lot of people on DU. Not so much elsewhere and that makes it easy to just let these people go. Does not matter. Their opinions certainly do matter, they are not to be dismissed as they are as much a part of the Democrats as any of us but the angry and petulant cries when Bernie eats a hot dog or ties his shoe are pretty funny to read.
I try really hard not to engage anymore but when someone thinks I made a comment like one of the "Bernie Sanders is a horror and NOT a Democrat" group I have to correct that.
