“I don’t see much difference between Bernie and Hillary,” Kpete Bouncy

“I don’t see much difference between Bernie and Hillary,” a friend said this morning over breakfast.


“Wrong,” said my other friend, also at breakfast. She then went through the list:

"Bernie wants to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour. Hillary wants to raise it to $12 an hour.
Bernie wants a single-payer health insurance system. Hillary wants to strengthen Obamacare.
Bernie wants all public higher education to be tuition free. Hillary wants community colleges to be tuition free.
Bernie wants to bust up the biggest banks. Hillary wants to make it more expensive for banks to be very big.
Bernie wants to resurrect the Glass-Staegall Act that separated commercial from investment banking before Bill Clinton joined Republicans in repealing it. Hillary doesn’t think it’s necessary to go that far.
Bernie wants to tax speculative trading on Wall Street. Hillary doesn’t think that’s necessary, either.
Bernie wants to expand Social Security by raising the cap on income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. Hillary wants to protect Social Security as is.
Bernie wants to allow states to legalize marijuana. Hillary wants to put marijuana on a lower drug enforcement classification but doesn’t want it legalized.
Bernie isn’t taking money from corporate PACs or Super PACs. Hillary is."
“See?” she said. “The difference is huge. Bernie is leading a movement for fundamental change. That’s why he’s generating so much enthusiasm, and why he’ll win the primaries.”

“Wrong” he said. “Bernie's too radical. He doesn’t stand a chance.”

You convinced me, I won't shop at any of them.  :-)

A excellent example of bouncie rule #2.
Perfect recollection of oral communicationskills.

Piss poor bouncie, no bongs.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

No bongs is being generous. On a scale of 1-10, this one gets a -5. No cops, no applause from interested onlookers, no high-5's, no one offering to buy the coffee/meal for her meticulous logic.

Big fail.

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Many people do not see evil until the gas is flowing into the chamber. That is why they get on the trains in the first place.

So the big difference between Bern-Out and The CHILL is that Bern-Out is promising more free @#$% and will use a longer and bigger screw to screw "the rich".

Or more accurately and succinctly, Bern-Out will destroy the US economy faster than will The CHILL.

About as convincingly 'Spontaneous' as a discussion of enemy vs. friendly political philosophy in a WW2 propaganda movie.  Ours or theirs.
