Who else has rabid, crazy, Bernie Sanders loving FB friends? [LOL] You know, the ones who, back in Feb and March were triumphantly posting every Bernie primary win and how they were going all the way to the White House?
Don't hear much from them now. Chirping crickets, mostly.
It's going to be fun watching them contort themselves into pretzels endorsing Hillary.
Someone should make an "O really?" app for Facebook. It would work like this: Every time one of the erstwhile Bernie supporters posts how he is supporting Hillary because Donald Trump is teh debbil, it would automatically re-post one of their anti-Hillary diatribes from a few months ago.
I think the German word is "Schadenfruede" - "Shameful Joy." :D

I don't have any Bernie supporting friends, just an ill-informed relative. And while I don't care for the Bern, I'll encourage said relative all the way just to take away from the mad barking cur-dog, Hillary.
the Clintons Lied. Americans Died: Mogadishu 1993, Benghazi 2012.
I have strongly encouraged all my Democrat friends to vote for Bernie. I am doubling down on that message. Many of them are so pissed that they are going to write him in...
Their loss.
Encourage them, don't debate them. Tell them how great it would be to have Bernie.

I've made it a point of cutting most Democrats out of my life completely.
I have an uncle and a couple of cousins that are rabid Dems and I haven't spoken to them in close to 8 years.
I have several friends that were rabid Dems last time I talked to them ... that was over 8 years ago.
So I don't know if my friends and family who are Democrats are Bernie or Hillary supporters.
what's this facebook you speak of?
Yeah...I got one of them on my Facistbook. He's a good guy and a fellow co-worker. He's just got a skewed view of politics, that's all. Although, as asmo stated, I'm all for encouraging them to still vote for the "Bern".

Facebook - Something to be avoided at all costs!!!
I have one friend that is a Bernie supporter, and all for his socialist programs. It's ironic, because he is also upper middle class, and comes from money, but has absolutely no clue just how much all this socialist bullshit is going to take out of his pocket. He makes in the mid six figures, has lots of toys (cars, an rv, a boat), and I don't think he has any idea what an effective tax rate like the Nordic socialist paradises he's constantly touting (80+%) would do to his lifestyle. I like pissing him off by destroying his arguments with statistics provided by his beloved government.

Funny how someone that smart who can make that kind of $$$ can also be so damn ignorant. Well...heaven forbid we end up with some wackjob like Bernie in office and he watches his salary get pillaged by a system he initially supported. Then you and I can crack open a beer, smile and say, "I told you so."

MEGA ...... I'm pushing one person in our prayer group, who's a rabid (aren't they all) Bern'd follower. To write him in, keep the flame going.. Especially considering their "hate' of HRC, who the believe is a republican sell out...
Stir the Pot, Stir the Pot.
I keep hoping the turd will run as an Independant.

I have a couple friends (whom I used to think were intelligent) that are rabid Bernbots. I like to call them out on the stupid crap they post, but they're never able to offer counterpoint. All the Bernouts have to say now is, "the superdelegates haven't voted yet! He still has a chance!"

Keep encouraging them to stay the course.

I blocked them from my life. :)
I can't have a dialogue with someone who is so very ignorant of history, economics, and human behavior. Nothing is more stupid or ignorant than a liberal/progressive/marxist/nazi/socialist/communist/(D).
Donald Trump was right, the system is rigged on both sides. The longer the Democrats are talking about Bernie, the better.

You need to choose your "friends" more wisely....

What kind of person would I be if I abandoned my friend just because he has a mental handicap? [ROFL1]

I hope there's blood in the streets of Philly in two weeks.
Worst thing that could happen is that Hillary and Bernie kiss and make up.

Sometimes you can't choose your friends based on political leanings. I'm fairly sure my godmother is a Hillary supporter and her daughter (who is also my mother's goddaughter) is a Bernie supporter. What I CAN choose is to not associate with LeftFacebook. Their intellectual property policies and security suck anyway.

Anyone who asks, I tell them I'm voting for Bernie, and encourage them to do the same.
Of course, I'm going to write in Palin, come November.

:rolleyes: You know, the main reason conservatives keep getting beaten at the polls is because they spend too much time in the echo chamber and they think everybody thinks the same way they do, because they only associate with people who think like them.

Ummm...I don't understand the question. FB friends? Friends who support BS? No, really. I don't get it.
I know a few. I don't even discuss politics with them, it's like trying to teach a pig to sing. My supervisor is one - he was an NCO in the army for years and a long-time HS football coach, grew up in the rough part of St. Louis, big burly dude, yet he's a rabid, gun-hating liberal. Thinks Obama is a god and Hitlery is a queen. Doesn't like Bernie 'cause he's "too old", and hates Trump.

Well, we won't have enough money to buy beer. But we can still say "I told ya so"

unfriended mother in law and sister in law when they were spewing stupid shit about the travon martin case and how the judicial system failed etc.
I just looked at both their facebooks and neither are spewing hillary or bernie crap, so I find that odd.
