Pope invites Bernie Sanders to Vatican to speak about "social, economic, and environmental" issues

Ha! Thanks. I mean, ugh – the most ridiculous part:

Unlike the 99 percent of theater-goers who waited months to see the show with Sanders on Friday, Sanders and his wife, Jane, were granted house seats at the Richard Rogers Theater. Broadway shows typically reserve a small number of seats for VIPs, usually family of the cast and crew, and occasional visiting dignitaries.

The tickets didn’t come cheap, however. Sanders paid $167 each, The New York Times reported.

HO. LEE. CRAP!

$167, can you imagine?! (Actually, yes I can, sounds pretty close to normal for decent Broadway seats to a popular show these days.)

The lengths that the corporate press will go to in order to brand Bernie some kind of elitist – literally part of the 1%! – and to NOT do that with the almost infinitely wealthier Mr. and Mrs. Clinton… I’m just…
