And the beat goes on

Everyone know that Hillary is full of shit. Bernie has run the most positive campaign in modern history. If Hillz is afraid to debate, she should just admit it.

#tonedownforwhat

The media is starting to notice. Hillary wants Bernie to tone it down and not behave like a Brooklynite. Well played, Secretary Clinton. Say goodbye to New York.

Batman versus Superman

It most assuredly does not suck. I want to get that out there right up front. Now that I've said that, let me tell you about all of the things that do suck:

1. Really, we're doing the Batman origin story again? Why?
2. Every scene featuring Lois and Superman together outside of the action sequences are dull and pointless.
3. Several minutes of shirtless Affleck doing cross fit seems a bit much.
4. Someone, anyone, teach Zack Snyder how to cut an action scene in a coherent way, please.
5. Eisenberg's Luthor is better than Spacey's Luthor, but that is a very low bar.
6. Zod is in this movie for no reason at all.
7. MORE WONDERWOMAN! We need more Wonder Woman now!
8. More Aquaman! (I may be the first person in history to say that ever).
9. Too many batman dream sequences.
10. Henry Cavill is just the worst. Really.

having said all of that, it is entertaining. It had the seeds of a great movie in there, it just doesn't find them. It's better than Ant-Man, Age of Ultron, Iron Man 3, both Thor movies and Man of Steel.

I'm glad I saw it, but I'd like to see an anti-directors cut with about 35 minutes trimmed out.

Best part was the trailer for Lego Batman! I need to see that badly

“like a Brooklynite"

The Clinton camp now says that they will only debate Bernie if he "tones it down" and that they are worried that he will debate “like a Brooklynite". So, I guess she is saying that New Yorkers are rude, mean, nasty. Why does Hillary hate New York? Why is she afraid of Bernie Sanders?

This is crap. She is spinning out of control. MSNBC is saying that Bernie will win Wisconsin and New York. Bernie just crushed her in Hawaii (the least white state), Alaska (and of the five most diverse states) and Washington. Her poll numbers are starting to collapse. Going forward, Sanders will erase her lead and pull past her prior to the convention.

They see it coming.

They are afraid.

Afraid to debate

Hillary Clinton is afraid to debate Bernie Sanders. In the last few days her poll numbers have started to collapse. Bernie has won a string of massive blowout victories in the nation's most diverse states. Her fundraising has taken a dive and she's had to cut way back on spending (which is only going to make it easier for Bernie to expand his support in upcoming states). She's looking at a map that greatly favors Senator Sanders. And now, in a ham fisted attempt to control the course of events, she has revealed that she is terrified of facing Bernie in another debate.

Go Starve Somewhere Else

I have hated these arguments for years. Why don't (insert : poor people, hurricane victims, tornado victims, gay people, blacks, asians, etc here) just move to a better place? Because, it is impossible to move when you have no resources. In most cases, if you could afford to move cross country, you wouldn't need to.

LGM demolishes the idiots who make those arguments.

Trump and the "rise" of the dumb

It is worth noting that few people notice (or at least, are willing to admit) that the modern Republican party is a scam. The monied interests (Corporations, Banks, Rich assholes) use bigotry and religion to trick poor white people into supporting candidates and positions that are damaging to the well being (and even survival) of those same poor white people.

No one admits this. It isn’t allowed. The Republican party does not give a flying fuck about abortion or gay marriage are creationism or any of the other bullshit that uneducated white people get worked up about. What they care about are dollars and power.

The Elders may be on the verge of admitting this.

More on the Hillary problem

This sort of covers it.

lately, Hillary is doing everything in her power to tell the Democratic base (Progressives, People of Color and the LGBTQ Community) that she doesn't need them. Guess what, we don't need her either.

The Hillary problem

Hillary Clinton has issues.  An argument can be made that her surreal lie about Reagan and AIDS is a symptom of a much deeper problem. It has not gone unnoticed that she praised War Criminal Henry Kissinger, decried Reconstruction as a bad thing and called young black men "super predators" that needed to be "brought to heel". Is Hillary really the sort of person that the Democratic party of 2016 should choose as its standard bearer?

Finally, they get it

It is starting to come clear to people that Hillary is less electable than Bernie.  Steve Almond  has a good run-down of arguments against her. These match up closely with what I have been saying for months.  Lawyers Guns and Money is starting to see the light as well. And this.

She keeps doing shit like this

This stuff has a lot of evidence. The polls show the gap. But, more than the polls I trust reality. Hillary is a terrible candidate and one that the GOP has been preparing for for 25 years.
