Ttystikk thinks it is wrong that millionaires and billionaires influence politics to their favor/special interests and your response is "should all 300 million or so citizens have a 5 minute per month sit down and chat with their senators or congressmen?" Do you try to be this fucking idiotic or does it come naturally?

You are such a pompous fuck. For a full year you have kept of your non-stop whining and everybody here has told you their opinions and feelings on the matter. But because you keep a non-stop barrage of yootube videos and other garbage, you somehow think we are all required to watch them, stroke our chins and engage in some sort of debate with you in order to maintain credibility?

Not likely. Get over yourself or go find a hole to sit in and cry.

With enough electorate pressure and party discipline, Democrats are the best bet and resolving those issues. Establishment Democrats strengthen our cause as they create an inroad to coalitions within the Democratic party that are further left. We have to bring moderates in and convince them. Raising money for our party is the reality until CU is overwritten. That doesn't mean we can't hold reps accountable at the same time.

I don't agree with him doing it either, just because I told you not to mention his daughter doesn't mean I'm white knighting.

You Bernie Bros have trouble with using the correct expressions, don't you?

Justice Democrats specifically registered to take unlimited Corporate Donations you dumb cuck.

I can't wait to see "The Real Turks LLC" as a donor like they were in Cenk Uygur's other "no corporate money" PACs like Wolf PAC.

What's needed is to come to the discussion with some power, otherwise progressives will continue to be treated like Tom Perez treated them last month.

This is why getting more progressives elected all up and down the ticket is important; it's the kind of influence that can't be ignored.

Tom Perez runs an office. He chose who he wants to work with. Makes sense that he didn't choose people who hate him. Don't you think so?

Edit: Holy shit. Eight posts in a row, tty? meltdown much?

and when someone tampers with a contest, in which you are charged with neutrality so WE THE PEOPLE MAY CHOOSE, and doesn't? that rocks our very core of democracy..of free choice.

hillary clinton was NOT freely chosen.

Does Florida still have those shitty voting machines that caused GWB to win the election? Or did the upgrade to paperless hackable and therefore completely unreliable ones that are so dearly loved by Republicans?

In Oregon, we are completely vote by mail with paper ballots and reliable vote counting system with checks and balances in place. Your state should look into it.

Maybe you should try sticking to the debate topic. Then again, you lose there, too.

Hypocrite? I said I don't like when he does it either and I'll call him out on future but bit my tongue until now. How is that hypocrisy?

Once again you've proven you're a moron.

its cute that during your multi post rant you completley ignored my earlier question..


or maybe this one?

ttystikk said:

Yes, I've met sitting US Senators and actually sat down for a conversation.

I was glad handed and ignored because I was just a college kid with no money for campaign contributions.

Those with real money not only get regular access but their requests are taken seriously, lest all the campaign cash they invested- err, 'donated'- find its way to their opponent during the next primary.

Please explain why you think this is an acceptable state of affairs.

so you actually could see them...

what did you ask them?

to watch a bunch of yourtube vids and to read some alt fact websites?

i take it you have got evidence that the senators you saw were at ignoring you because they only listened to rich donors?
