It’s fucking August of 2015. 20-fucking-15.

It’s already becoming impossible to read threads in the Election forum on the Democratic candidates due to the fucking bullshit coming from **ElvisL1ves** (Hillary Clinton) and **Shayna** (anyone else, this time it’s Bernie Sanders).

Can’t either one of you wait until the elections actually begin? Or at least get closer?

On one hand, I get your point. On the other hand, you are still Pitting posters for advocating for politicians in the Election forum. 🙂

Heh. Yep, it’s deja-2007 all over again. 🙂

Well, that’s true. On the gripping hand, I’m a Democrat. It doesn’t do either one of them any good to piss me off. I might vote for Ralph Nader.

The level of vitriol is pathological. Jesus. I agree with both of them on most political points that come up but good lord, they both need to see a psychiatrist. Both Hillary and Bernie would be appalled by the angry bullshit being spewed by those two.

Cite? Or is this about the “unfork Hillary” thread (in which case I don’t want to wade through it or into it).

Do you ever get the feeling we’ve been here too long? Same people. Same stories. Same arguments. It’s like being married to a bunch of people, and I’m a year late for for my second seven-year itch.

I think a more interesting question would be who you would vote for if you only listened to those two for your info.

at least they’re arguing about people who would legitimately have a significant effect on our lives, and not whose brand of smartphone is better.

More to the point, I think both of them would be more responsive to the availability of abortions than tiny American flags…

It’s better than hearing people on a message board devoted to fighting ignorance advocate for Trump and pretend he has a chance of winning.

Compared to Trump, Sanders is a shoe-in.

Never underestimate the power of mass hysteria in a nation already pissed at a impotent government.

Yes, come to the Green side, we have cookies! 🆒

Actually, I’m mostly with Shayna on this one, so you can pit me too.

The politics of failure have failed. We need to make them work again.
