That Itching Bern

Timothy Birdnow

A friend had this to say on Facebook:

How many of you were just so excited 🤩 about getting a text from the Bernie Sanders campaign only to realize that your name was wrong? 😐.
How can I be in for Bernie, when Katherine was supposed to get the text! 😒. I’d like to know how Karalyn got my number when I didn’t sign up for texts from Bernie?🤔

A reader responded:

Bernie is pretty much the only independent politician working in dc right now who isn’t bought and paid for. He’s also not a socialist and actually cares about the middle class. He’s actually worth your attention.

Naturally I couldn't let that stupidity stand:

Interesting. His net worth is $2.5 million, and he didn't amass that from his salary in the Senate. https:// www.forbes.com/ sites/ chasewithorn/ 2019/04/12/ how-bernie-sande rs-the-socialis t-senator-amass ed-a-25-million -fortune/He owns several houses.

His wife had a cushy job running a university (into the ground; she was under investigation for bank fraud for a land deal.)

As to his not being a socialist, well, the man went to the Soviet Union in 1988 ON HIS HONEYMOON,.

He calls himself a "democratic socialist". He campaigned for the Marxis "Socialist Workers Party" in 1980, 1989 in a speech to the National Committee for Independent Political Action Mr. Sanders said:

""In Vermont, everybody knows that I am a socialist and that many people in our movement, not all, are socialists. And as often as not — and this is an interesting point that is the honest-to-God truth".

So I think we can pretty much conclude that he IS a socialist, and a kleptocrat to boot.

Oh, and if he is somehow "pure" of heart is that a good thing? There is nothing more violent and evil than a pure of heart socialist. Such was Lenin. Such was Mao, Pol Pot, Che Guevera, and every other person ultimately responsible for the murders of millions to advance revolutionary causes.

1 It's always a source of amusement to me when texts go awry. A month or so ago I got a text from, would you believe, MoveOn.org! Complete with all the "please join us and help fight Trump, with all his crimes" etc. I was furious, because there's no way for me to block texts, so I responded "Get the hell off my phone." Their response was "Why don't you want to join us?" I replied with "We are Republicans and you are the criminals! Stay the hell off my phone!" What was too bad was that I didn't realize until a week later that with my provider, there's a number I can forward SPAM to.

2 Move On kills me; they were started as an anti-impeachment organization to protect Bill Clinton. It's IN THEIR NAME! They wanted America to move on.  Now they demand Trump's impeachment and refuse to move on. They could at least have the decency to change their name.

I hate spam texts too. And junk calls. I get a ton of them since I just got my phone and number a few months ago.
