Now that the Midterms are approaching, I see the Bernie fanatics out in full force.
What's wrong with the Bernie Sect is they have NO nuance, and do not seem to understand the realities of politics.

It’s been easy for Bernie in a tiny state of less than half a million white people, as long as he supported guns, he would win re-election over and over, without having to work very hard.
It's how he could keep his purity mostly intact.
He's not known to work well with others.

My issue with the Bernie crowd is the LIES they tell.
They spent the entire primary lying so badly about Hillary, so they could drive her poll numbers down and Bernie's up.
Here's just a small taste of those lies, this from Jimmy Dore of the Young Turks:

He blames Hillary for the Iraq War:
Bush is the ONE person responsible for Iraq war.
fact is, if Hillary or Al Gore had been POTUS at the time, we never would have gone to Iraq.
Still, Hillary explained why she voted to give Bush authorization.

People also forget, the Iraq War, was actually a pretty popular stance, even among Democrats around the country.
Still, Hillary made it quite clear in her Iraq vote, that she was NOT voting for war, she was voting to get more weapons inspectors into Iraq.
She was LIED to...

He claims Hillary called black kids SuperPredators
That's a total LIE, she called Gang Members/ CARTELS Super Predators.
People forget that in the 90's Time Magazine and The NYTimes, were warning of Super Predators, gang violence was out of control.

He blames Hillary for Private Prisons:
This started in the 80’s under Reagan, Exploded under Bush/ Mostly STATE
While I believe that private prisons should be illegal, fact is it is only about 10% of prisons and it is mostly at the state level.

He blames Hillary for Gutting Welfare:
Bill Clinton was in office, NOT Hillary, she had NOTHING to do with the Welfare bill.
it was a Republican bill, authored and passed by a Republican House and Senate
Bill Clinton famously hated that bill, calling it a Shit sandwich.

He had promised welfare reform during his campaign, which by the way, had a roughly 80% approval, people were sick of welfare due to many lies in the media.... he was then saddled by a Republican congress, so the GOP wrote the bill, painting Bill Clinton into a corner to sign it.
He honestly hoped that the Democrats would later have the House majority and the Senate, and would be able to revamp that bill, making it more friendly to the poor.
That never happened, the people keep voting in the GOP, handing them more and more power, as we now see.

Jimmy Done goes on to blame Hillary for DOMA.
Yes, MANY of us hated the passage of DOMA.. but, DOAM was actually passed to PREVENT a Constitutional Amendment banning Same Sex Marriage all together.

Bob Barr, the Republican who authored that bill has said this time and time again.
Many people seem to forget what was happening at the time, not to mention that a Ban enjoyed massive approval.

During the primary, when Hillary explained why Democrats supported DOMA, she was called a LIAR, Washington Post Fact Check, even called her a liar,
I guess they were unable to find that article Bob Barr wrote.

I guess the Washington Post was also unable to find the many Supreme Court briefs stating the same thing.
That is the problem with most Hillary critics, they call her a liar, even when she has told the truth.. this is repeated over and over throughout her career.
This is why I support her with such passion.
People deserve to be criticized, they don't deserve to be smeared.

Jimmy Dore, continues his tirade of lies and twisting of facts with blaming Hillary for supporting a No Fly Zone in Syria.
Obama never did provide that No Fly Zone, and Syria is a mess.
I happen to agree with Hillary on Syria.. the following articles with detail why.

as an American living in Sweden, I was very anti-war when Obama took office, I hated what we did in Iraq, then came the Arab Spring.
People all over the Arab world rose up against brutal dictators… many of the leaders went peacefully, but that was not the case in Syria.

If you want to understand WHY I also wish Obama would have created a NO Fly Zone in Syria, please read these articles.
Perhaps if you feel we were right to stay out of Syria, these might change your mind.

He continues on with his bullshit, upset that Hillary didn't take on Bernie's entire platform, you know the policy platform that 18 MILLION Democrats voted again, when they didn't vote for Bernie, and instead voted for Hillary.
So, he's upset that Hillary opposed Free college:
So, he's upset that Hillary opposed Free college:
Yes, she opposed free college saying that she didn’t believe in handing wealthy people free college would be much help
I also don’t believe that people will agree to government paying for college.
She had a GREAT idea for Debt Free College.
This was NOT good enough

The problems of the USA need solutions that are unique to the size and diversity of our country.
Trying to turn the USA into Sweden is NEVER going to work.

Which brings up to Jimmy Dore being upset that Hillary didn't support Single Payer Health Care/ M4A
Hillary supports Universal Health Care, and that is a very liberal position, but, that is NOT good enough for Bernie and his Bros and Becky’s, who want Single Payer or NOTHING.

Guess what?
You’ll probably get nothing if Bernie is in charge of things, since he is the ALL or Nothing guy.
here is why I don’t support Single Payer in the USA

Universal Health care does not have to be single payer to be a good system.
It also doesn't have to be Single Payer to be a Left Wing Policy.

He goes on to add, that he is upset that she Opposed the $15 Minimum Wage
Hillary supported a $12 Federal Minimum Wage.
The current Federal Minimum wage is $7.25
.
But, $12 is not good enough, remember.... they want ALL or NOTHING.

There is NO way that it would be a good idea to double the minimum wage in EVERY state, and town in the country, that is just stupid, and political suicide.
What they can pay in Seattle for a Minimum wage and what they can pay in small town America are 2 different things.
What they can pay in Seattle for a Minimum wage and what they can pay in small town America are 2 different things.
The IRONY of this is, Vermont has a $10.50 Minimum wage..
If Bernie thinks this is such a great idea for the whole country, why
hasn’t he gotten that $15 minimum wage done in Vermont?
Yes, Bernie, show us how well that works in small towns.

He goes on to hit Hillary for being a Goldwater Girl.
Yes, Hillary was a Goldwater Girl when she was 15 years old, as her parents were Conservatives.
Do we REALLY go after people for their politics when they were 15 years old?

When Hillary moved away to college and met Martin Luther King Jr, she started becoming more politically aware, she became a Democrat and her entire life has been spent voting and working for Democratic causes.
As an adult, she’s never voted Republican.
She's a Liberal Democrat.
