1. "Priorities" is a good word to drill into the heads of citizens...

It's absurd how little Americans expect for their taxes and from THEIR gov't - at this point people don't even expect decent roads. What a bunch of idiots!

8. It's gotten so bad Congress doesn't even pretend to work for us anymore

Just look at the last spending bill, that was just a blatant insult to US citizens and our democracy.

I can't even believe they passed that bullshit and people aren't arriving with torches and pitchforks.

2. Who keeps making these pretty memes?

For a man who is not a Democrat, has never been a Democrat, and has absolutely no place being promoted like this on the DEMOCRATICunderground.

Perhaps this site needs to be shut down and moved to Progressiveunderground? Independentunderground?

If you posted shit like this about Ralph Nader, you'd be banned. If you posted shit like this about Jill Stein, you'd be banned.

This continuing love affair with this guy, who isn't a Democrat, blows my god damn mind.

4. Traditional Dem Policies, eh?

There is so little actual correlation between what you THINK are "Traditional" Democratic policies and what people like Bernie Sanders advocates as to be laughable.

7. Bullshit again. Actually I don't support a party; I support policies...

And most of those policies were once supported by the party.

I guess the "better" is independent Bernie Sanders.

Feel free to go start Independentunderground.
