Because if there was even a sliver of thought in his head to stop using his twitter that is now gone forever because he won't let that bitch tell him what to do.

That "forward" badger flag with the green/white/blue is awesome (though I'm not fond of the green legs) but it's still awesome and I would be proud if that was my state's flag.

He did at their meeting this morning. There are reports that there were two endorsements prepared: that video, and a shorter statement. After talking with Bernie, Obama OK'd the video, making it pretty clear that Bernie's fine with it.

As he should be! Obama was very complimentary of Bernie in the video.

The thousand-year Trumpenreich appears to be failing to get off the ground.

hahahahahahaha holy poo poo, Maryland? He thinks he can be competitive in Maryland? They loving voted for Dukakis even though the Willie Horton thing was about him killing a girl in Maryland. Obama won MD by loving 25 points.

But, oh, hey, they elected a Republican governor in an off-year wave election when the Democrats had a massive civil war over their nominee, so obviously it's ripe for him to take.

Jesus, I seriously hope he continues to dictate his campaign strategy by fiat like this because he has no loving clue what he's doing and will waste what little money he has.

This article : http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/appeals-court-no-2nd-amendment-right-concealed-carry

Says Californian state gov didn't want to give someone a concealed carry license as they didn't meet the state requirements, so the person took it to court.

I just checked Fox news and there not calling for the violent overthrowing of the government, so either they haven't heard, or are still in denial.

Hilariously, it looks like the objection in California specifically is that they also ban open-carry in most places, and if it is basically impossible to get a concealed-carry permit, then that effectively removes the ability to carry a firearm outside one's home at all, which could be interpreted to infringe on the 2nd Amendment. But the reason California bans open-carry in the first place is because of a Republican-backed law signed by Saint Ronnie in response to Black Panther neighborhood patrols.

I'd love for this to catch on among other major dem politicians that use Twitter heavily. If Bernie or Obama responded like this it'd be worthy of printing and framing.

Hey, now, that's a kind of sweet myth about an animal that sacrifices itself for its young. I mean, sweet in the sense that that is what the myth is about. The actual pelican ripping its flesh off to feed its young is actually quite metal.

Too bad Louisiana is a more "Eat the Young" state and would probably do better with, I dunno, a fat listless alligator?
