Better than Nixon saying (as Vice President) "you won't have Dick Nixon around anymore" Of course he lied. Later he said "I am not a crook!" Again, he perjured. 53251

Congress protests public right to guns. No checks & balances for constituents.
I do like to see rule-breaking protest normalized, but that's as far as I'll go as an endorsement. These US Representatives won't call an official sit-in to stop war, nor to defend Social Security or heathcare or to end torture or war crimes, but they'll do it to abridge your rights. Until these MoFos sit-in to rein in the banks and the corporatocracy, I'll be damned if I'm going to applaud them for wanting to curb the people's right to bear arms. Take assault rifles from cops and private cops and the bank eviction posses before you deem it insupportable that your victimized constituents weren't granted the second amendment for a reason. What utter dumbass charlatans! Who needs assault rifles? The Native Americans could have used them. The Puerto Ricans needed them. Hawaiians. Central America. Our slaves. Every African American male. You privileged shills!
Hillary, Bernie, and Elizabeth Warren
I have read often that it was time for our first woman President (Hillary). As a man I would agree with that. But I would also remind the reader that Lizzie Borden was a woman and we know how that worked out for her parents, when she hacked them to pieces with an axe. 45438
Bernie Sanders declares candidacy for ceremonial Dennis Kucinich stand-in role passed up by Elizabeth Warren
Bernie Sanders is not running for president. Everybody's favorite independent socialist gay short person politician is rising to the occasion where Elizabeth Warren would not. Hillary's foil cannot be a woman, it has to be an unelectable white man. Dennis Kucinich was the perennial go nowhere boy candidate whose task was to pretend his challenge skewed the Democratic party platform to the left. At best Kucinish raised populist issues which the leading contenders then could not avoid. In practice Kucinich stole just enough enthusiasm from independent voters to preempt the impetus to build a third party. So now it's Bernie's turn.
Obama discards consumer advocate Elizabeth Warren, picks bank favorite
Who can be surprised really that President Obama will take no measure against the rule of the bankers, not even the appointment of public favorite Elizabeth Warren to head the consumer agency for whose creation she lobbied to address increasingly usurious creditors?
