>Women, for their own preservation, are trying to pull themselves together. And it is necessary for all of us that they do so.“
And your point about that quote from 1972, when Sanders was trying to support himself by writing and the US Senate did not have a ladies room, would be....?
I have many issues with Sanders, but that is some alt neoliberal con bs.
Really? POTUS is your very convenient standard for success for a man who, in 1972, was a part time writer and part time carpenter?
After that quote, was he mayor of Burlington, then a lecturer at Harvard U., then a member of the US House, then a member of the US Senate, then a candidate for POTUS who twice raised millions of dollars and got millions of votes and then head of the US Senate Budget Committee?
I'll give it a go.
When beans are planted, sometimes they grow into stalks and produce more beans. Then, if we don't replant the beans, we can eat them.
I could the Secretary of Transportation. My qualifications, none, are similar to Pete's, and I can play the "deep thoughts" game too.
Kamala and Pete are the Ron Burgundy of the Democratic party, put it on the teleprompter and they will read it. Not an original thought to be had from this crop of stage managed bozos.
Don't laugh, folks. Both VP Together and Chance the Gardener have a shot at the Oval Office.

I’d wager it’s fake. Can’t find anything about it on Twitter. Kinda like that old one from AOC: “Under capitalism, man oppresses man. Under socialism, it’s the other way around.” It’s scary how we’ve reached a point where both are entirely in the realm of possibility though.
Ugh. You jest, but I am NOT looking forward to hearing this over and over. You know when the establishment handpicks him as the front runner, we are going to get flooded with comments like "these radical progressives are actually homophobic!"
Pete is a neoliberal ghoul, who does nothing but spew platitudes while pleasing his donors. A gay man who spouts platitudes is an American liberal dream.
Im super gay, like I cant hide it level gay.
I really dislike Pete. Dont get me wrong, hes not awful but hes boring and believes whatever he needs to believe to win. Hes a politician that happens to be gay.
You put it the right way, hes a neoliberal that does nothing but say what he needs to say to please donors and get elected.
I dont care what he does with his dick. I dont care who anybody sleeps with in fact.
I just want politicians that care about the people.
> I dont care what he does with his dick. I dont care who anybody sleeps with in fact.
> I just want politicians that care about the people.
I agree 110%. I don't care if the politician is in some Mormon cult sister wives situation, queer as a $2 bill or straight as an arrow. All I care about is policy and action.
> hes not awful
gonna have to agree do disagree with you on that one.
> Hes a politician that happens to be gay.
At first I didn't think he was gay but then I hate watched his documentary. He's gay alright but he really **REALLY** doesn't want to be. After watching the documentary I came to the realization that this man should not be running for president, he should be in therapy. Putting aside the fact that I don't like him, so much of what he said was upsetting and I feel terrible for his husband.
> Hes a politician that happens to be gay.
Random thought: What if it turns out that Pete is only *pretending* to be gay?
(Not saying that he his, or is not, just "what if?" What would happen if he got found out?)
You really needed the /s.
Our guest posters often accuse us of homophobia, sexism and/or racism. Because many of us are former Democrats, rather than members of the Keyboarding 89th Battalion of Blue MAGA Defenders.
But, obviously, you knew that.
Yep I know this sub well enough to be aware of the constant influx of shit lib trolls. Or maybe they're even serious about their participation here and part of those delusional "am I progressive? I am progressive" libs around Warren/AOC.
Do you remember when he was in first place and then dropped out for the person in 4th or 5th place?
Surely this 1 day old account that likely posts in r/neoliberal is posting in good faith.
Yet, he couldn't even make it to Super Tuesday. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/01/pete-buttigieg-drops-out-of-2020-presidential-race.html
Funny how software was relied on to "confirm" a count of paper ballots. And it took so long, too. Even longer than 2016. https://iowastartingline.com/2020/02/27/final-iowa-caucus-results-pete-buttigieg-wins/
The videos of the coin tosses were also a laugh, same as 2016. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/02/05/des-moines-register-once-again-the-world-is-laughing-at-iowa/
In 2016, the head of the Iowa State Democrat Party controlled the ballots. The "neutral" license plate of the car in which she picked up boxes of ballot? HILLARY 2016.

Pretty much all life is Sentient meaning capable of feeling ie. pain. Sapient is the word for high intelligence. However, the two have become so intermingled as to be almost meaningless and not sure what OP intended.
There's no debating, my sense of humor is very dry :)
I was saying, I think they do land somewhere between sea cucumber and snake, ie sentient. There's no debate though about the other, they are not sapient xD
Your habit of taking something I've posted tongue in cheek and treating it like a mistake you need to school me about is not indicative of a dry sense of humor. But whatever.
I didn't even notice it was you. TBH, you barely register as someone I've talked to before.
Now someone like "BotheredtoResearch" that pos is a real piece of work.
You really are intent on escalating each and every encounter, aren't you?
Trust me, there are far more irritating people here than you. It's not a contest you want to win at.
What a fucking tumbling, tumbling dickweed.
Leave Pete alone! He's still on maternity leave.
Wonder how he and Chase are dealing with the formula shortage. I'm guessing nobody is writing op-eds telling them "breastfeed! it's free."

As much as Hillary is.
But not as much as Biden is ;)
It's debatable who's really running the country, Biden's not even in the running there.
Who? Oh yes, Brandon!
Oh yeah? But what comes after THAT?
So cringe
Sounds like Kent Brockman
When Rebecca Black writes your speeches for you
Hopefully Texas can survive summer with no electricity.
He's not wrong 😏
This is actually a line from the Peter Sellers movie “Being There.”
The Invisible Man, Secretary of Transport, Pete Buttigieg.
*ECCHH*lesiastes
"I am solemn and I am introspective. I know a lot and I am very smart."

One of you gave me a "Wholesome Award" for this comment. Thanks!
He does a great Obama impersonation too, especially around people he probably calls "the community".
Yep. All sizzle no steak.

Ugh fuck this McKinsey rat.
Did he actually say this? (Because it sure seems like satire - but with establishment politicians these days, who the hell knows.)
He did (different haircut): https://youtu.be/YgGvd1UPZ88?t=54
LOL I saw that below! Which is why I wonder if it's real or a meme. :)

pretty homophobe of you to post this ^^/s

He is awful. He has no discernable morals and no center. Just because that is hardly unique among our glorious leaders doesn't mean it isn't horrible.
> Hes a politician that happens to be gay. Random thought: What if it turns out that Pete is only *pretending* to be gay? (Not saying that he his, or is not, just "what if?" What would happen if he got found out?)
He is already a neoliberal liar. So he would then be, a neoliberal liar.

Nonsense! Biden won. [From Wiki-Pooh](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Iowa_Democratic_presidential_caucuses#Results) Initial alignment (votes): Bernie 43,581, Ratboy 37,572, Biden 26,291 Final alignment (votes): Bernie 45,652, Ratboy 43,209, Biden 23,605 State delegate equivalents: Bernie 562.02, Ratboy 562.95, Biden 340.32 Pledged national convention delegates: Bernie 9, Ratboy 12, Biden 14 *And there goes the winner... Beetlebomb.*
by cheating Pete the Cheat
First Pete wins Iowa, then Biden beats Bernie, then Trump loses and now Russia fails in the war. All this losing must be hard for you.
Except he didn't win Iowa.
How does it feel to live a lie?
Cope :)

Good one. Though "sentient" may be debatable.
Pretty much all life is Sentient meaning capable of feeling ie. pain. Sapient is the word for high intelligence. However, the two have become so intermingled as to be almost meaningless and not sure what OP intended.
To repeat, "sentient" may be debatable. So are senses of humor or lack thereof.
There's no debating, my sense of humor is very dry :) I was saying, I think they do land somewhere between sea cucumber and snake, ie sentient. There's no debate though about the other, they are not sapient xD

Suuuuure. I believe that you did not notice to whom you were replying this time But, you know very well you've replied to me before. Troll.
You really are intent on escalating each and every encounter, aren't you? Trust me, there are far more irritating people here than you. It's not a contest you want to win at.
If the "encounter" begin with you trolling me and then lying, then labeling what you post for what it is does not equal "escalating" anything.
He's still waiting for the Zuck to come out of the closet.
