Perez Booed At DNC Unity Rally

BTW, Bernie Sanders' name was cheered at this event. It still blows my mind that this privileged 1 per center can jet across the country railing against climate change and income inequality and can fossilize in Washington as he runs as an outsider. A principled outsider nonetheless. The exalted one was not in attendance at this event. Maybe he was resting at his $650,000 cottage or perhaps one of his other two houses.

Holy Income Inequality, Batman: Sanders Purchases $600K Vacation Cottage

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is the proud new owner of a summer home in the Champlain Islands, Seven Days has confirmed.

The Burlington resident last week plopped down nearly $600,000 on a lakefront camp in North Hero. Sanders’ new crib has four bedrooms and 500 feet of Lake Champlain beachfront on the east side of the island — facing Vermont, not New York.

The Bern will keep his home in Burlington and use the new camp seasonally.

Could Sanders Have Beaten Clinton Had He Not Pulled His Punches?

In the golden age of falsehood, it is hard to monitor every pile of horse manure. One of the silliest absurdities of the day is that Bernie Sanders is an OUTSIDER.  Folks, this fossil has served in the two Houses of Congress for over 25 years!


At what point does one become a Washington insider? 30 years? 40 years? Must one be born into a political family to earn insider status?

A true outsider could have beaten Hillary. Had a candidate wanted to politicize the Clinton Family's public corruption, that candidate might have defeated the Super Delegates. Of course, to publicize the systemic corruption would expose the repulsive underbelly of the Democrat Party. Be a good insider and leave this one alone, comrade.

A true outsider would have been all over Hillary's "damn emails." Why did the Beltway relic sidestep this Yellow Brick Road to the nomination? Again, this is the golden age of falsehood. Hillary's criminal activity leads back to the White House. It is with the Obama Administration's full knowledge and cooperation that Hillary exposed sensitive secrets to America's enemies. The Obama media might have soft-pedaled Hillary's crimes but they have performed back flips to write the president out of the script.

Sanders has also refused to criticize Hillary's record as Secretary of State. Once more, Mr. Potomac cannot address, say the events of September 11, 2012, without bringing Barack Obama into the conversation.

Had a true anti-establishment Democrat run against Hillary, he might have faced off against Trump in November. That, however, would require an outsider and Sanders is no outsider.

Rasmussen: Trump, Hillary Tied

Barring an act of God, an act of the devil, the jawbone or Twitter account of an ass, or the antics of the Keystone Cops who have found refuge in the upper echelons of the Republican Party, Donald Trump will be the 45th president of the United States.

Trump is not my first choice but anyone who ignores this golden thread coattail opportunity should be inducted into the Imbecile Hall of Fame right behind Mike Murphy and Jeb Bush and whoever ran the unsuccessful campaigns of Kathleen Matthews and David Trone.

Teflon Don is gaining momentum. The Dem pundits love to use Brer Patch antics. "Oh please don't run someone besides Donald Trump. With his high negatives, we will capture the White House, the Senate, the House and we can award Cabinet posts to Lois Lerner and Jonathan Gruber. Please don't run that formidable John Kasich." Careful what you wish for.

While we should never underestimate an opponent, we need to remind ourselves of just how unpopular Hillary Clinton happens to be. Hillary is not an approximation of Bill and even if she was, he is old news. Hillary should have defeated Barack Obama in 2008 without breaking a sweat. Her only competition in 2016 is to be kind, a joke.

Let's take a minute to remind ourselves of just how awful a candidate and what a rotten person and what a buffoon Bernie Sanders happens to be. The pundits are amazed that an unhandsome, 74-year-old avowed socialist is giving the heart and soul of the Democratic Party a boot in the ass.

Sanders recycles roughly a dozen cliches and his band of idiots never tire of his greatest hits. They see a kindred spirit in a man who was virtually unemployable until he found a parasitic niche in politics. Of course the Millenials love him. He didn't have regular work until he was middle-aged. He got kicked out of a commune for being too lazy. Do you know anyone else who can make that claim?

Sanders has been a cheerleader for Ho Chi Minh, Fidel Castro and the Soviet Union. A red diaper baby, his essence is not about helping the poor or the downtrodden or the forgotten. His is the constant drumbeat of Anti-Americanism.

One could make the case that Sanders in delusional. One could make the case that Sanders is psychotic. One could make the case that Sanders is senile. The actress Sharon Stone has suggested that he did too much acid. It's an unfounded allegation but it's not farfetched by any means. Have you ever seen this pathetic buffoon try to speak when he is deprived of his dozen slogans? I bet he could not  call numbers at a Bingo game.

We could pile on Sanders all day long. Why bother, except to say that without Super Delegates (and in the case of Hillary's rescue, they live up to their name)  Hillary might have lost the nomination to a stupid version of Julius Rosenberg. Let us remind ourselves that Hillary was originally up 35 points against Sanders in New Hampshire. She lost by 22% !!!!

As weak as Hillary is, her stock is falling. The FBI has assigned 147 agents to investigate her. The Clinton-Obama rivalry is real. Even if Hillary has enough dirt of the White House to ward off prosecution--either by a pardon or more characteristically Obama, a slowing down and eventual fizzling of the process--she will forever be known as Crooked Hillary. She will limp across the finish line with token resistance as the Donald has concentrated on scorching Republican Earth.

If the Super-Pacs and Donald Trump and a semi-unified GOP all gang up on Hillary, it will be a sweet November for Republicans.

Oh yes, the Rasmussen link.

Sanders' Tax Returns

I suppose we are all hypocritical some of the time but today's Democrats are hypocritical ALL of the time. ALL THE TIME!

With all of his itemized deductions, Sanders’s taxable income was significantly lower than it would have been if he had taken the standard deduction. The deductions left Sanders and his wife paying $27,653 in federal income taxes in 2014, on a joint income of $205,271 — an effective federal tax rate of 13.5 percent. If that seems low to you, your instincts are right: According to the Tax Foundation, the average federal income-tax rate for a couple making $200,000 to $500,000 in 2014 was 15.2 percent. The “millionaires and billionaires” that Sanders is so fond of berating payed, on average, just more than twice as much of their income (27.4 percent) in federal taxes as he did.

Oh and why isn't an advocate of income equality returning every penny over $53,657 (The current median household income for the United States) ? http://www.deptofnumbers.com/income/us/

Sanders's High Water Mark

This blogger correctly predicted a big day for Trump last Tuesday due in part to the Chicago riot coordinated by forces close to and sympathetic to Bernie Sanders. When the three remaining GOP candidates blamed Trump's harsh language for the attack, I knew it was game, set, match.

The Trump people are largely decent folk (I hate using that term post-Obama but we can't just abandon innocent words.) This might not be the opinion of pundits, political insiders and the intelligentsia but it is pretty much the perspective of Main Street. I could see Rubio, Cruz and Kasich backsliding but I did not foresee Sanders losing five of five primaries including a landslide in Florida..

Sanders's pinnacle was hours before the Chicago riot. He unleashed his Brown Shirts and the Dems said, "Hello Hillary." If Soros wants to defeat Trump, he might reconsider his tactics. Thuggery will not work better for Hillary than for Sanders.

Bye bye Bernie. Can't say we will miss you.

Reflections On Hillary And The Communist

It scares me that so many young people have fallen for Bernie Sanders. I take a conspiratorial perspective on his popularity. Leftists have conquered public education at the expense of the public and education. History, civics, economics, science, reasoning, critical thinking and much more has been thrown overboard to make room for the pursuit of popularity via competing sympathies. In this vacuum a flimflam artist like Sanders can work his magic.

Time passes. I understand that but don't we have vague memories of the Soviet Union, the Khmer Rouge, the National Socialist Party of Germany? The Cultural Revolution where people who wore glasses were executed? Fidel? North Korea? Why did we fight in Korea and Vietnam? No memories? Mental reset? Feel the Bern?

Which brings us to Hillary. The fact that she is in a dead heat with a protest-vote candidate shouts volumes about her viability. Her scandals are more far-reaching than most people imagine. We wonder about the FBI's course of action and why they have yet to recommend indictment.

It is possible that the FBI is being consumed by the enormity of Hillary's (can we call it espionage?) scandal. The White House knowingly exchanged emails and conducted official business with Secretary Clinton via her private email. So too, did high-ranking personnel at several intelligence agencies. No one blew the whistle? Everyone routinely mishandled classified data until Valerie Jarrett dropped a dime? Everyone had keys to the strawberries? Yes, Captain Queeg, they all had keys to the strawberries.

In light of Hillary's dismal performance in Iowa there is the distinct possibility that high-ranking Democrats might abandon her. In that case her legal woes will arrival sooner rather than later.
