Beto talking about Netanyahu. It took me a couple of seconds to realize he wasn't talking about the Republicans.

 

"That relationship, if it is to be successful, must transcend partisanship in the United States, and it must be able to transcend a prime minister who is racist, as he warns about Arabs coming to the polls, who wants to defy any prospect for peace as he threatens to annex the West Bank, and who has sided with a far-right, racist party in order to maintain his hold on power," O'Rourke said.

Funny timing as I just saw a Bernie supporter on Twitter who was tearing apart Democrats for bipartisanship, tearing apart Beto and Kamala, and tearing apart anti-immigration talk. 

 

They won't be saying a word about any of this.

I simply do not understand all these folks on both sides of the political aisle who run around, screaming like Melissa Manchester about how there's "just too many people" either here already or who want to come over.  Seriously?  We're THAT overcrowded?  There's THAT many people throughout the rest of the world of whom we have to be afraid?

I can understand the hesitancy. Germany, for instance, let tons of people in without proper planning, which led to big problems, including a wave of rapes. But there are ways to say this without doing what he's doing, which is basically going "Yuck."

I pray to God Bernie does NOT get the nomination. Because - despite the ANYONE but Trump attitude for 2020 - I cannot support Trump Lite of the left. And he is. Down to not releasing HIS taxes. Go the f-u-c-k home, Bernie.

If he doesn't get the nomination in 2020, he'll just come back in 2024 and try again.  And again.  And again.

 

Bernie will never go away.  Ever.

He's 77 years old, so I'll have to disagree with you there.

More seriously his hard core supporters were so hateful last time, I'm completely against them getting their way this time.  I saw so many people rooting for Trump so the country would suffer and turn hard left. No thanks!

    • Absolutely! Brad should've simply moved on from Lunacy. There's no point of freeing her, if you're not going to at least make an attempt at redemption or incorporating her into the fold. It happened with Quinn, who committed quite a few felonies before become the Forrester Matriarch.  Heck, keep Lunacy in prison and have Poppy/Finn discover that she gave birth to twins - 'Sunny' could've come on with a clean slate and still had Sheila/Finn and all the other drama. It certainly couldn't have been worse than what we've witnessed with the destruction of $B.    
    • I would enjoy it if Swan popped up on BTG as an old one time friend/mentor of Anita’s for a cameo. This is just

    • I had totally forgotten that Courtney story. I see Burton was already phoning it in by that point.
    • omg I completely missed that, but now when I see it typed here in your post, it's obvious icky cringe. So now I just checked and Tomas said that -- on May 27 that he likes the author Carl Ivati.  He said it with sort of an accent, so I didn't catch the stupid joke or think about the spelling.   I remember when that aired, that I actually said to myself at the time, "I wonder if that's a Latin American author, and I will have to google him later." And now I see your post, and I see. Well that's cringe, and I feel stupid to have fallen for it.

    • There's a lot you don't need if you have the writing.  You don't even need large casts!  You could make do with a cast of 12-18 actors if the writing is there.
    • Thank you. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with sleeping around if your spouse actually knows about it. She’s just a cheating slut.
    • OMG...Robert Mandan! And Donna Mills is a child. I keep hoping for more of early Ross/Vanessa.
    • I get your point, but I also know that if the roles were reversed -- if a man were screwing around on a woman this way -- everyone would be all "All with his head!" When I say Vanessa needs therapy, I'm actually being kind, because I could begin and end with the fact that she's a cheating slut.
    • Is nobody going to mention the cringefest that is 'Carl Ivati'?
    • I've accepted we'll probably never see any of the Roger/Holly 1976-1978 storyline. Whenever any of Roger/Holly 1979 and 1980 storylines surface, those are must watch as they set in motion everything we saw a decade later.
