If you cannot win an election based on your ideas, then get the hell out of politics.
~ Bernie Sanders
Welcome to a very abbreviated version of $27 Quotes.
Normally on Saturday nights I do a $27-group / Political Revolution open thread, a weekly place where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy some inspiring quotes, good music, and (most importantly) a picture or two of foresterbob’s cat Noble Fur. But this week I’ve got an internet connection problem at home, so I’m typing this from a library computer. So no time to be looking up quotes from this week’s news, let alone encoding some for your puzzling pleasure.
Here, however, are the plain-text versions of the 4 quotes which appeared in cryptogram form last week:
What do you pay when you go to the doctor in Canada? “Nothing”.
~ Bernie Sanders
In my view, we should not be celebrating individuals who took up arms against the U.S. and defended the horrific institution of slavery.
It's important for every community in America—including those of us in Congress—to take a hard look at the historical figures we honor.
~ Bernie Sanders
The problem was never just Steve Bannon. It was and always will be Donald Trump.
~ Bernie Sanders
There is no such thing as the “alt-left.” Those who believe Medicare should be available to all Americans are not the same as Nazis. Those who believe that we must fix a broken criminal justice system that is unfair to black, brown and poor are not the same as Nazis. Those who think we should remove statues that were erected as a reminder of white supremacy are not the same as Nazis.
~ Nina Turner
I hope to have my internet problem fixed in a few days and be back with a full-fledged edition of $27 Quotes next Saturday. Meanwhile, here’s another quick look at Noble Fur and a little music to enjoy.

(Since I’m hoping to have my internet back in running order some day soon, that seemed like a good choice for tonight’s music...)
