Oh my fucking god. Old people are smoking crack.
But he didnโt start this. The renewal has been going on for the last seven and a half years, led by the most successfully progressive president since LBJ.
You know who was more liberal than Obama? Richard Fucking Nixon.
A Republican.
Why are people like Lance Mannion and Kevin Drum and so many more so hell-bent on smacking down Sanders after heโs finished? Heโs lost. Itโs done. I guess they want to make sure the entire movement is quashed, too. (Canโt let those house prices even be threatened even a little bit.)
Mannion has no clue how the federal budget or economy works, either. The federal government is not funded by tax. Know what happens to the money you send to the IRS? Itโs essentially destroyed. If you were sending physical money in, theyโd throw it into an incinerator.
According to Mannion:
1) Clinton being a woman makes her magically progressive (just like Sarah Palin?)
2) Sanders did nothing of consequence that others hadnโt already done.
3) Being corrupt is just part of being a politician. Sanders isnโt a real politician because heโs not corrupt like Clinton.
4) Hillary is to the left of Bernie in some areas. (Ha.)
5) Obama did all he could possibly do, the poor little baby, to help but the meanies just wouldnโt let him do more!
Iโve heard of revisionist history. But revisionist present is something we need a more concise term for as itโs becoming so common these days.
