They aren't common knowledge, at least to me

D'aw, you too

I'm relapsing into the military mindset, gotta get ready to work with that population.

Forgive me for having it slip my mind, what's your plan? Something related to vets?

Yeah ultimately would probably be at a VA.

That's good. I used to serve a lot of veterans from a VA in a pharmacy I used to work at. It's good work, though challenging at times. Just don't turn them all into a bunch of anarcho-capitalists

Trump deserves to be president because Americans deserve him.

Who would've anticipated that?!

Don't think I'll have any time for that. I've succumbed to The System.

This just in, Phil Anselmo is a douchebag. People shocked.

It's weird that people are shocked about this. Phil's been doing it for years.

He's proven himself to be a fool so many times over now that it's amazing that anyone gives him the time of day. Interesting that he was playing a Dime tribute concert when they hated each other at the end and his public comments that he wished he was dead are possibly what triggered the nutcase to go and shoot him..

 

[CiG]

Hahaha. "He's fucking wrong."

Hey Cassette, you going to this? Jage should go too, seems like it's right up his alley.

Pretty sure CIG isn't a MRA or "RPer".

C-Span reports "Clinton voter fraud in Polk County, Iowa Caucus: Caucus chair and Clinton precinct captain do not conduct actual count of Clinton supporters and deliberately mislead caucus."
http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4578575/clinton-voter-fraud-polk-county-iowa-caucus

I'm usually skeptical of these sort of headlines, but the fact that it comes from C-Span makes me a little more open to it. C-Span is incredibly non-partisan and I listen to it on a daily basis. What I find more disturbing is that no other media outlets except for those representing the extreme right are discussing this.

edit: Looks like a Huffington Post article mentioned it. I would be surprised if this were true, but certainly it warrants discussion.

edit 2:It looks like the video was segmented and uploaded by a C-Span viewer, so it's not C-Span posting it. Strange. Whatever.

Reading on this "controversy" and it appears that it's a Bernie conspiracy theory thing. Don't the caucuses mean nothing anyways? Doesn't the DNC/P just pick the nominee anyway? (Ala the Electoral college for Presidente)

 

[viewerfromnihil]

No doubt. The coin toss thing is hilarious. Hillary ought to try her luck at the PowerBall

Well I know you won't be going since the events apparently prohibit faggots and bitches from attending.
