NBC News has the story. Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like.
Way to completely miss Sanders’ message at the DNC and instead act petulant children. Grow up, idiots. This is not a fucking game.
Classic Bernie.
And yes it is a game. For the elite to keep themselves in power and placate us masses to be good little peons who pump their gas and bag their groceries.
Bernie told us the election game was rigged early on. All the power Democrats told us how ridiculous that was and now we have the emails showing us they were working behind the scenes to keep Bernie from being nominated to ensure the person they wanted to be President, Hillary, would be the nominee.
No shit!!
Evidently, these peons are going to pump their own gas now. The Wells Fart-Go Center. Good venue.
You have to wonder what type of inducement Bern got to go along and play nicely at the end. His truest believers are obviously bitterly disappointed, and more power to 'em if they can shit a little on the sham of a system.
And all this time I thought Hillary was under a cloud.
I can’t help but notice the irony in Bernie’s unwavering goal of a progressive agenda may have actually doomed us to a Trump presidency and all that brings. By staying in so long and giving his followers false hope, he wasted time that could have been spent getting them to see the bigger picture.
I hope a fart-in is a good way to oppose the many Supreme Court justices Trump will have the opportunity to nominate should he get elected, because I’m sure Bernie’s supporters aren’t going to be pleased with them, either.
Yup. Bernites and Trumpskies all want to hand the levers to the peons, who of course will run everything perfectly and to universal benefit, just like 1930s Russia.
Is that French?
Looked her up, she’s Green Party. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but I think NBC might have noted it.
At any rate, is there anyone actually designated as official speaker or deciderer of stuff? Have they caucused, the Bernie Busters, and elected such? Looks like its not Bernie any more, so is it this lady? Sez who?
Clearly, this cannot be organically produced methane. Hard enough to get a bunch of us lefties singing on the same page, now they’re expected to fart in unison? C’mon, pull the other one, its got bells, pull the middle one, I’ll give you a nickel.
Saul Alinsky originated the “Fart-In”.
Threatened to, yes. Don’t think he ever actually did it. And how could he? How do you coordinate the methane production of maybe five hundred different people? Also, a lot of Bernie Busters are vegans, and vegans fart silently and smells of orchids.
If it’s all vegans, the smug will be thicker than anything L.A. ever saw.
Vegans? One word: BEANS!!
And now you’re going to stage a group fart to demonstrate how wrong they were to not take you seriously.
What a…delightful idea. Sure to impress onlookers and lead to the conclusion that the participants are serious and thoughtful members of the, um, body politic.
I saw a handful of delegates wearing Peter Pan hats at the convention last night. I figured they were probably Sanders people (clever deduction based on a sign that one of them was holding–I’m smart that way). The only meaning I could draw was that they were saying they, like Peter, were refusing to grow up. There must be some other explanation, right? though I can’t figure out what it is; but for some of these folks, a refusal to grow up sure does fit.
Not everyone brought a book they could drop simultaneously.
Good thing there’s no smoking in that arena.
Couldn’t the Sandersites just slip whoopee cushions onto the seats of all the delegates when they rise to salute Hillary?
When they sit back down it’d be noisier and more embarrassing, without contributing to climate change.
With that many, some are bound to release more than just gas.
Nearly.
