Has anyone seen the news today? Where Bernie Sanders just purchased a $600K house on lake front property? What a hypocrite! This scuzz owns over 1 Mill in houses, but demands the "the rich" surrender their souls to the government! This dude didn't have a real job until he was 40. Where did all this money come from?

DNC, via taxpayers.

The Elite have to compensate their vassals to a certain extent lest they rebel!

He's been drawing a six-figure congressional salary for 25 years, and a $600,000 lake house is hardly Xanadu.

A $600k house in the north east isn't exactly a Bel Air mansion. He's been earning a nearly $200k Senate salary and his wife was the president of a university.

They also sold a house that she had inherited from her parents, so they had some extra cash.

Yeah, that's not that much money around here.

Oh and BTW, Bernie never has been a Democrat.

Well, even full-blown communists have standards. This was one of the Stalin's homes.

Of course, if the Bern Dog and his lovely wife wanted to cement their reputation as being one with the people. ....

Weird, another complete non-story being propagated by right-wing media.  It almost seems like it was put out there to distract from something that isn't going their way  :whistle:

Plenty of that going both ways I'd say.

Right, but this one is especially stupid.  It takes all of ten seconds to figure out there's absolutely nothing to see here.  Also, just because both sides do it doesn't mean they are equally bad about it. People keep saying that and I don't buy it. Show me something equally petty from this week from the other side (that isn't from some fringe source). Either way, this junk is contributing to the dumbing down of society.

As near as I can tell, that Bernie Sanders story is from Fox News. That is fringe in my book.

I feel like this is similar to someone saying "you want stronger environmental policies but own a car, BLASPHEMY!!"

Nobody should be shocked a wealthy politician that rose to prominence as a champion of the don't-have's has expensive tastes, most are like that. Surely the Emo kids that voted for BS understood a 74 yr old politician wasn't really like them.

I heard he also bought two sets of PXG irons.......now that is living rich in my book!!!

Otherwise so what, he bought a house. Politicians deserve better than us lowly citizens anyway...

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
