2016 Democratic National Convention - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania - July 25-28

Seriously why didnt they invite the Fathers of those criminals? Im pretty sure last time I checked it also takes a man to make babies. Maybe they actually have enough sense to realize their kids were nothing but thugs?

Speaking mothers appeal to emotions better than fathers. Mothers and fathers share different bonds to their children, not that both don't love their children. A baby have more chances of surviving without one than the other. That's just nature speaking...Who is to say that their fathers were in the picture, don't act like black people are the only ones with deadbeat dads either.

In light of these leaks and "revelations" (if there were some out there who didn't actually believe in this to begin with), it will be interesting to see how it affects Bernie's speech during the convention, if at all. And, if it doesn't, if Bernie keeps endorsing the DNC candidate as if this wasn't a big deal and as if they didn't treat him very unfairly, how will it affect Bernie's supporters, and whether those who were thinking of voting for Hillary won't in fact decide against it.

[Orbitus]

This won't be boring at all. I can't wait to point out all the lies and bullshit spewed at this circle jerk.

Get ya popcorn ready!

You didn't point it out during the RNC, why do it during the DNC? You were singing praises on the lies of the RNC speakers.

Keep speaking your racist rhetoric.

This is huge and breaking news:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/22/politi...ileaks-emails/

Debbie Wasserman-Shultz the head of the DNC has been uninvited to speak following the fallout from the leaked DNC e-mails.

[I Push Buttons]

I don't really see how you can cheer the mother of a Benghazi victim and blue lives matter speakers at the RNC then accuse the DNC of playing politics with this.

It's really either both sides are bad for it, or they both can do it. Don't really see an intellectually honest way to criticize one and not the other.

I think they're both stupid and I am a Democrat.

I think the Benghazi mom was more bullshit than the BLM moms though. Unfortunately the DNC has already tethered itself to that bullshit movement and are going all in, whatever I'm just going to mute it while they spew their bullshit about cops being out to get blacks...

But the Benghazi mom........ The dozen or however many REPUBLICAN INQUIRIES into Benghazi have all showed Clinton had fuck all to do with it, yet that entire first day of the RNC was just "omggggg Hillary murdered my son!" Just 100% utter fucking bullshit... That mother should have been fucking ashamed of what she did. How much respect and reverence can you NOT HAVE for your own dead kid to go up and knowingly lie in their name for fucking political reasons... I mean what the fuck?

It will be absolutely hilarious if the removal of Wasserman-Schultz as a speaker, and the leaked emails about the treatment of Sanders do not affect the speeches in the DNC in any way. I'll bet there'll either be no mention of any of it, or it'll be handwaved as completely irrelevant and as not a big deal.

How that will affect people who are on the fence, who knows.

Well Sanders is live on CNN right now... They asked him point blank what he thinks about this.

He says its not surprising, any objective person should not be surprised by this, but it doesn't make it any less shitty. Called for Wasserman-Schultz to resign, and says the DNC needs new leadership, etc.

Still calls for party unity and says we need to work together to defeat Donald Trump. Literally passed off the primary being 'rigged' with one statement and has spent the last ten minutes talking about how terrible Donald Trump is.

Bernie really is a fraud and can now aptly be named a "cuck".

Fortunately Sanders is a rational person, unlike Trump, who throws tantrums and cries like a child about stuff, often to his own detriment.

[Super Friendly Kitty Cat]

I don't think too many people believe that Bernie Sanders is acting rationally.

If you were running to be your parties Presidential Nominee, and it came out that your own party was working against you in collusion with your opponent, I don't think it would be rational to be a part of the DNC anymore, or support the candidate who cheated you and your supporters out of a fair fight for the nominee.

Personally, I think Bernie Sanders supporters should file a lawsuit alleging fraud and corruption against Hillary Clinton and the DNC to be reimbursed for their donations.

It depends on how it is done. The republican shtick was an absolutely ludicrous attempt to blame Hillary for a terrorist attack and its consequences. It was completely disconnected from objective reality in what it tried to do.

If the democrats try and paint republicans the same way then its just as bad. However if they use it as a platform to advocate for criminal justice system reform (which is what I think they will do because they are not batshit crazy republicans), then that is a good thing.

[Sodia]

Well reason tend to be less interesting than utter lunacy.

Well Censoring White Color on the convention is not Lunacy ofc :P PC Lunacy 100%
MMMMMURICA!!!

After the leak of those DNC e-mails pretty much having a bias against Bernie, if the guy doesn't pull a Ted Cruz at the convention, he is officially a bitch lol. As in he needs to get the word tattoo'ed on his forehead. Hillary did him dirty, no way he should give her his endorsement at the convention.

We've rarely seen the left, including the Clintons, try to distance themselves from the lunacy of BLM, so I wouldn't keep my hopes up on this.

I find it really weird that the only people yelling this are republicans who would benefit from such a thing.

We both know this is not true. Many Bernie supporters are still standing up for the guy and speaking out despite what has transpired.

It's actually kind of hilarious. It's the same crowd that was saying Bernie should run 3rd party. They don't give a fuck about Bernie, they just want a guaranteed Trump win.

No, the vast majority of people on the board doing it were "he's such a beta socialist cuck lol i can't believe it berniebros are deluded college fags that won't get a job" last week and are now "if bernie doesn't back out of his endorsement he'll lose my respect total cuck move if he doesn't".

It's really bizarre and feels like they think their post history is invisible or something.

We both know many of his supporters are upset and feel Hillary pulled some backroom deals to ensure her way to the President. This e-mail scandal is just another example. Now Bernie may already be a beta cuck, but he's going to turn into an omega cuck which is even worse if he gives Hillary his endorsement. This is on the same level as those frat boys that get spanked and then have to yell out "thank you sir may I have another".

Soo you're basically just confirming exactly what I said about the type of post you just made.

Thanks.. I guess?
