Guess your attention span couldn't hold on long enough to get the full story or more likely it just didn't fit your narrative.

As in: One Single Time. And it was short.

Hillary's ad was quite long and was aired in a continuous loop, like something out of dystopian science fiction movie.

Please come down from your throne.

And it's nice to know you hate us more than the Republicans.

Let me turn my cheek and give you a fresh one.

If they've accused me of having Stockholm syndrome, maintaining a master/slave relationship, or flat out said I must be ignorant are not held in very high regard.

If you fall into the above mentioned group then yes I will hold them in disdain.

Thankfully over the years I've learned how to refine it, I used to have no filter.

Half-truths, out of context, outright lies.

You Divide disrupt and stir the fucking pot. Put Dems at each other's throats just in time for elections.

Now I see you are accusing others of what you yourself do.

Nobody is going to fall for that. You're the disinformation bullshit machine here, not giftedgirl.

Where did you get that information from? Before you answer,keep in mind that we've seen the original facebook post and videos after the last OP made this claim:

during a caucus and all the once-every-4-or-8-years gaps in training/management of the process, they have people inflating columns of balloons.

And the Orwell screens...would love to see George Carlin (miss that guy) on

...the difference between a primary and a caucus, you know what the difference between a primary and a caucus is?

(authoritarian voice) In a primary, no one can campaign within 250 feet of the polling place. Your mind is made up. Vote and get out of here!

(childlike voice, wide eyes) In a Caucus you sit in a room with balloons and watch TV. You have to sit there for a long time or it doesn't count, (aside) kind of like a cross between being on 'timeout' and playing a really slow game of musical chairs.



(authoritarian voice) In a primary you count votes and the most votes wins.

(childlike voice, wide eyes) In a Caucus you seat delegates. Here delegate, here is a nice seat for you. Please sit with us. No, sit with US...really we insist.

were trying to take care of their business? I honestly cannot imagine how they got anything done.

To begin with when you register at the door you have to be able to be able to talk to the people at the tables. Then once the meeting is convened you have to he able to hear what is being said.

IMO there should have been a LOT less racket.
