Bernie Sanders at least has the advantage of the courage of his convictions. He is the one bastard among that gentleman's club of 100 bastards, who has the balls to stand up and say, "Yes, I AM a Socialist!"
I used to watch Jr. from Vermont years ago, when he was just a little tiny congressman from Vermont. I can't hear, but I follow body language pretty closely.
Ever since then, I've had a recurring nightmare, where I have to testify in front of a U.S. Senate committee, of which Jr. from Vermont's a member.
And my insistence upon staying mum until there's a 3/4" wall of plexiglass between Jr. from Vermont and me, because I don't like to be spittled and spattled on.
Jr. from Vermont's like that; he's got more spit than Lake Champlain has water.
It's pretty gross, up close.
