For someone who claims to be liberal/progressive/left of whoever this statement of yours is in incredibly poor taste. Can you grow up and discuss things like an adult? You were asked specifically what you hated about his politics and have proceeded to produce one non-response after another.
What policies does he have in his platform that you disagree with? What does not advocate for that you wish he would? Instead of emotional ranting about his sexuality you should be able to answer these simple questions.
Or is his problem he isn't Bernie regardless of his positions?
So you can’t be an adult. Got it.I already explained my opposition to Pete, but I don't expect you to get it.
That's not a lifestyle. My point is that his lifestyle is very straight-laced. When you say "openly homosexual lifestyle" that evokes promiscuous and demonstrative behavior. That's not what pete is.
Because corruption is fine when your guy does it, but not the other guy.
Pete can't even fend off attacks from Amy Klobuchar.
I'm glad you voted for Bernie in 2016 and I hope you do again. I'm just sharing what I find odious about Mayor Pete.
Resoundingly incorrect. A "Real court" where "trials" happen, would have also included witnesses.
it's any wonder that the Republicans refused to call any of the witnesses that they claimed could refute all of the evidence.
I wonder why that is? Apparently you don't care.
lol that you think we could believe you aren't a trumphumper.
It meant that IMO his conservative detractors are guaranteed to focus a good amount of attention on his openly homosexual lifestyle, as it will certainly sway voters
I haven't seen this debunked yet, but its a good example of what he'll face.
I agree. Mainstream America isn't ready for an openly gay President regardless of his politics. Slime? You ain't seen slime, son. Imagining it to be any other way would be foolish. I'll vote for him but all too many people won't. Maybe in 20 years.
Hillary Clinton was in the backroom marking ballots for Mayor Pete personally to thwart Bernie. No matter what happens its always the Clintons. Keeps the Berrnie Bros and the GOP happy.So now that Pete officially got the most votes, does that mean Bernie was the one doing the ratfucking? Or did the DNC alter the results to help Pete? Need someone to tell me where I should direct my outrage.

IMO, you would do well to discard the compartment you've built for this. He's openly homosexual, he doesn't hide it, he doesn't have a wife and some kids and a dude on the side. Openly homosexual lifestyle, in my neck of the woods, does not mean the same thing as it does to you. The phrase means he's not ashamed and pretending to be something he's not, he's not gonna apologize for it, or deny it when someone asks. Your take on the phrase is definitely based on stereotyping homosexuals as sexual deviants that are wicked and immoral.
That's not really describing or providing information as to why utilizing the DCO program run by our military branches for what appears to be a large number of different types of roles to fill would be the same as Trumps lifelong history of corruption.
I mean, I get you think the DCO program is corrupt, but I'm not sure why. It seems that you think it's corrupt because people use it to pad their resume. Is it corrupt only when you want it to be, or when anyone enlists thru the DCO?
Based on the numbers, it hasn't seemed like he's had to. I hope others keep attacking him, that means they're scared of him. Plus it will get him used to it.
That's fine, just more information would be nice.

No because I don't consider demonstrative or promiscuous behavior to be deviant, wicked, or immoral. That your baggage.
You're just being obtuse at this point. The question is not if the DCO program is legit just as the question with Trump isn't if there were legitimate medical deferrals for Vietnam. Of course there were. We can make judgements in individual cases.
I gave you the information. If his cynical, corrupt behavior does not convince you, there's nothing else I can provide.
Yup you're right the party is full of Bernie people, not people trying to stop him great job. Also the votes were definitely counted fairly.
They will of course probably say that regardless of what the Democratic plan is

You are doing the good fight here but I have kinda given up.
We had the same bunch of clown previously denigrating TG's military service and now commending Pete for his service. some even here previously called her service 'she was in a non combat zone'.. etc etc.
A lot of the one liner warriors here are rooting for the corrupt Corporate Dems. It has worked well for society so far. [sarc]
Yes, in a way it is, in the same it's America's. I was raised with the same sentiments I just described, as a strict Evangelical.
Either way, I change my perspective and changed how I interpreted these words
Ok, what specifically about his use of the DCO program would you consider corrupt, and how would you compare that to a 70 grifters life of corruptions
See above, so far you've offer your opinions and conjectures.
Yeh, whenever Bernie doesn't win it's because there's a conspiracy against him. And when Buttigieg introduces Chasten Glezman as his husband, that's not openly gay.
Is it? I just saw both campaigns wanted a partial recanvas.
Anyway, Bernie couldn't be doing that, since everyone said Pete was winning anyway. Or at worst ineffective. If you want to know the truth, they clearly screwed Bernie! because Bernie won pop/final alignment, yet he's coming second in the establishment metric.
Your brain is broken.
No problem, apology accepted.
"What specifically about Trump's use of a medical deferment for bone spurs would you consider corrupt?"
See what a dumb question that is?
Sure. I mean the guy is a weasel seeking power at any cost and has absolutely no beliefs at all and that's pretty much obvious to anyone with two brain cells to rub together, but here, have at it.

Well, it wasn't an apology. You're previous statements indicated you thought being "openly homosexual" meant he was promiscuous. Which isn't what it means. Think about what I've said so far.
So you're not going to provide an actua answer to clear this up?

I agree and this is the primary advantage to Sanders' position - when he stakes out something more extreme to begin with then he can 'compromise' with a more liberal bill. If you start off in the center-left like Mayor Pete you probably have to go further to the right.
I am very confident that Bernie's position will be a major general election liability as the Republicans will simply dust off the 2009-2010 playbook and say to everyone 'if you vote for this guy kiss your doctor goodbye'. They will of course probably say that regardless of what the Democratic plan is but unfortunately with M4A it has the virtue of being plausibly true for some people. That's a bad thing to campaign on!
People are loss averse and the prospect of losing what they have is terrifying to them, even if the end result is something better as I agree M4A would be. If you go the Mayor Pete route we will likely achieve the same ends, just more slowly.
