  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Did everyone get the "Stop Bernie Sanders" memo

Tucker Carlson blasts Democrats' Biden push: 'They're pushing a defective product'

Tucker Carlson mocked those pushing and supporting former Vice President Joe Biden Monday, in particular those who think he's the candidate to stop the nomination of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders.

The host ripped former Democratic presidential candidates Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, among others, for endorsing Biden who he referred to as a "defective product."

"Today, both Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar endorsed Biden. So did former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Beto O'Rourke," Carlson said. "These are party people doing the bidding of their corporate masters. There's nothing warm or sentimental about it. They're pushing a defective product on consumers and they know it. They're selling lawn darts."

Explained below in Bernie's own words.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Looks like once again
they are trying to steal it away from Bernie.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

For the Bernie supporters and all of us down here (below the heavens) on earth. We can't always get what we want.
They say that some guys can't play basketball that well. Mick does some pretty good dance moves in this video.

The Democratic Party gets to decide who it wishes to run. The party that nominated Trump has no bearing in the situation.

Trump supporters bashing Biden is the epitome of hypocrisy ...

Seems that Trump has given Biden a nickname that will stick for life. He lives up to it daily.

It's seems to be that the word democratic found in the name of the Democratic Party is somewhat of a misnomer.

The Superdelegates Are Nervous

Now iirc something similar was tried against Trump with the Republicans during their 2016 process to elect a candidate for the presidency?

Interesting that it somehow escapes my memory.

I can, however, recall several nicknames for Trump, including "clown"....

The US is a Democratic Republic (i.e. elements of a Democracy AND a Republic).

Get it, now ???

Obviously it's a democratic republic! Here's the wiki in case somebody else doesn't understand.
Democratic republic - Wikipedia

One thing I'm not clear on are these superdelegates. Does each state from the republic have an equal share and voice within the Democratic Party?

I'm not all that up on current right-wing memes. What does living up to the name "Joe" even mean? Is it supposed to be some sort of insult?

seems like this "stop Bernie" meme is coming from right-wingers and Russians.
Not sure ?

if my neighbors are Russian ?
Maybe they slipped in some Russian goats on us ?

Wow, still so scared of Biden! It seems like this "stop Bernie" meme is coming from right-wingers and Russians.

Klobuchar and Buttigieg are right wingers or Russians? Could have fooled me.

They endorsed Biden, presumably because they agree with his policies and think he would make the better candidate. I don't see either of them shouting, "Stop Bernie!"

Of course not they aren't going to openly undermine Bernie and risk completely alienating his followers. Where do you see right wingers and Russians entering into forcing every candidate that has pulled out to endorse Biden?

Isn’t it fun seeing people who wouldn’t vote for the Democratic candidate if their was a gun to their head, lecture the Democratic Party on who their candidate should be?

So you see the withdrawals and endorsements as forced ?

You do realize that such would have to happen at some point in a large field of candidates, right ???

As fun as four years ago when the situation was reversed.
