TRUE SOCIALIST: Apparently Bernie Sanders Is Stealing His Neighbor's 'Washington Post'


In perhaps the funniest and most fitting news of the year, WMAL radio host Chris Plante told his audience of a story he heard from friends about the elderly senator. A man living next to Sanders apparently called the Post to complain that he was hardly ever receiving his subscription. After an investigation into the matter, the paying customer realized that it was his neighbor, Senator Sanders, who was stealing the paper right from under his nose.

Here's Plante's story via Red State:

Bernie Sanders and his wife Jane when they are in Washington DC, live in this house on Capitol Hill, ok? Part of their vast real estate empire. They’re like wannabe Trumps with their real estate holdings.

The next-door neighbor…their neighbor on Capitol Hill called the Washington Post and told the Washington Post that they were cancelling their Washington Post subscription because their very expensive Sunday Post stopped showing up. Not there this week, last week, the week before, then it was there one week but the week before it wasn’t delivered, so I’m cancelling my subscription to the post because your delivery person never gets to me. I’m paying for it but it never gets to me.

The Washington Post said, “Please, do not cancel your subscription to the Washington Post. We will investigate with the delivery person and we will get back to you.”

So the Post investigated. They got back to the person cancelling their subscription to the Post and they said, “Listen, we talked to the delivery person. Our delivery person claims has seen you come out of your house again and again and grab the paper on Sunday mornings. Immediately as the paper delivery person delivers the paper, they’ve seen you come out of your house and pick up the newspaper. So, sir, you are lying to us.”

[The neighbor] said, “Oh, ok, I’ve been coming out and picking up the paper?”

“Yes, and we got a description from the delivery person. You are an older man with gray hair, balding, and little round glasses…”

And the guy said, “I’m like, you know, in my 50s and I’ve got a full head of dark hair. But, my neighbor is Bernie Sanders.”

reading that story as told it sounds like the delivery person was delivering it to sanders house and not the neighbors. The delivery guy said (as you quoted): "Our delivery person claims has seen you come out of your house again and again and grab the paper on Sunday mornings. Immediately as the paper delivery person delivers the paper, they’ve seen you come out of your house and pick up the newspaper."

That's according tot he story as told. The delivery guy did not say I saw your neighbor come out and steal your paper when I delivered it to your house. he said I see you come out of your house and get it.


I hate yhat your idiocy has me 'defending' Bernie sanders :goodworktard:

Except for the part where Bernie Sanders would surely know whether or not he was paying for a delivery subscription to the WashPo.

I hate that your idiocy makes you suspend common sense and turn in circles in order to 'defend' Bernie Sanders. :goodworktard:

I don't believe the story , but it's humorous.

Delivery people never wait around to see who picks up the paper.
They have a route to get done .
I do understand why Bernie only picks up the Sunday paper. He likes to read the funnies.

that is YOUR interpretation

To be fair, it's not a dishonest reading like he so often does. Unfortunately for his defense there's Vrai's astute counterpoint, the fact that many city dwellings share stoops and such making the "confusion as to where it was delivered" argument likely invalid (though I surely don't know because I have never been to Sen. Sanders' DC home), and the fact that if Sanders were also paying for a newspaper there would be TWO papers out there and the guy wouldn't be missing his.

:queenofthetards:

So you're saying that WashPo is too stupid to realize that they actually weren't delivering the neighbor's paper, and Bernie Sanders was in fact picking up his own paper, and the neighbor had a valid complaint because his paper was not being delivered?

Doesn't it hurt to twist yourself up like that?

you proved beyond a doubt that you struggle with comprehending a story with that 'no weapon found at the scene' idiocy.

If you actually read the anecdote and not the headline you will see that the WP makes no claim about Bernie other than to say he picked up the paper that they delivered to his house. The story teller spins that into Bernie stealing the neighbors paper and you tards sucked it down like the propaganda guzzlers you are.

Uh huh :lol:

You remind me of my kids when they were teenagers.

Me: Why are you late coming home?
Kid: Well, you see... (spins some tall tale)
Me: Really? Then why didn't you call and let me know?
Kid: Um, it was like this... (spins tale of why they couldn't call)
Me: Let me see your phone.
Kid: Uh....(spins tale as to how their phone magically has juice now)

While I'd admire their creativity when they actually put some effort into it and didn't insult me with twaddle, I was under the impression that you are an adult and therefore should either A) stop spinning tales; or B) do a better job of it.

In all fairness, Sanders isn't stealing the newspaper.



He's redistributing it from someone who doesn't need it, to someone who does need it.
Sanders, being a Senator, clearly needs the newspaper more than his neighbor - who, frankly, sounds like a whiny little bitch.

Now that's how you spin it! :yay:

that's hilarious. You suck down a story told by some guy who heard it third hand and then he told you that it means sanders stole someone's news paper and you accuse me of making up stories.


you are just mad because I am pointing out your gullibility.
