I remember Biden’s debate with Sarah Palin. She repeatedly called him O’Biden and he just sat there with a *****-eating grin because he was told to not be mean to her.

/dev/null Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 The dust up over whether Bernie & Biden should debate sitting down or standing up can be resolved by allowing Tulsi Gabbard to participate in the debate and going with the Whose LIne Is It Anyway Sit/Stand/Lay Down format 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biden's going to win Michigan big and this sucker will be over by the time the debate even happens. This assume Biden doesn't spend the next week or with another string of dementia videos. Even the DNC isn't stupid enough to prop him up if he keeps releasing the oatmeal in his noggin'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 5 hours ago, 3rdnlng said: Does the "bigger picture" include campaigning for someone with cognitive issues for President of the United States? One would think that if Bernie were to do that he would be putting his partisanship and/or bias ahead of his country. The bigger picture is electing a Democrat who can replace Ginsburg on the Supreme Court and any other openings that may arise. It's increasing environmental regulations, raising taxes back to 39.6% on the top tax income bracket to increase the social safety net, raise the minimum wage to help give raise increases to about 40 million people by the end of his first term, and push for a reduction in military spending. Bernie's all for those things even though he wants to go farther so he will fall in line and endorse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you haven't noticed that the rising economy has raised wages at the lower end because of supply and demand created by that same hot economy that was in turn created by the tax cuts and elimination of silly and duplicate regulations. We don't need a weaker military like it was with Obama when we didn't have spare parts even for our equipment. Oh, and you don't want Supreme Court justices that adhere to the Constitution?

You’all raised my tax rate when we were in a recession because I was told I needed to ‘help out’ in a time of crisis. I didn’t complain. I paid them. Now we’re in a time of plenty and you need to raise them back up again? RAISE YOUR OWN DAMN RATES! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 So the DNC & CNN dropped their request that Bernie fan Biden with ostrich feathers and hand him crib notes throughout the debate ? At least they're not making a mockery of Bernie this primary like they did in 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 ....so we have our "crash test dummy"............. Sanders faces pushback over call to make coronavirus vaccine free By Andrew O'Reilly | Fox News Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., is facing pushback for his call over the weekend to make a future coronavirus vaccine free to the public, with critics noting the move would disincentivize pharmaceutical companies developing such a vaccine. "Once a vaccine for coronavirus is developed, it should be free," the Democratic presidential candidate tweeted Sunday. Tom Schatz, the president of Citizens Against Government Waste, called the pitch "a bad idea" and questioned how the government would be able to force a private company to hand over a vaccine free of charge. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/sanders-faces-pushback-over-call-to-make-coronavirus-vaccine-free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they will pay twice as much. Plenty of motivation to develop a vaccine to sell to feds for twice what they would normally get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is spending 100's of millions without a firm commitment namely payment to at least the extent of covering the company's cost in doing so.

If Bernie had really wanted this he would have come after Biden much much much harder than he did.
