The Watering Hole

Good God Almighty!!!!!

Had free time tonight, working out of town. Sat around the hotel room and listened to this crap for at least hour and a half or so for the first time in years.

I got pissed. What a bunch of horseshit fuck heads these people are. I can't believe people watch that shit. I can't believe I thought similar to that. Although, their isn't much thought in that line of thinking.

I wouldn't care much if Hannity had a heart attack. I don't like any of those people. It's disturbing, actually.

Hendrix wrote a song just for Fox News.

Learn it, love it, live it:

(Yeah)
(Sing a song, brother)
If the sun refused to shine,
I don't mind, I don't mind.
(Yeah)
If the mountains fell in the sea,
Let it be, it ain't me.
Got my own world to live through
And I ain't gonna copy you.

Now, if 6 turned up to be 9,
I don't mind, I don't mind.
If all the hippies cut off all their hair,
I don't care, I don't care.
Dig, cause I got my own world to live through
And I ain't gonna copy you.

White-collar conservatives flashing down the street
Pointing their plastic finger at me.
They're hoping soon my kind will drop and die,
But I'm gonna wave my freak flag high. .. High!

Hah, hah
Fall mountains, just don't fall on me
Go on mister Businessman,
You can't dress like me.
Nobody know what I'm talking about
I've got my own life to live
I'm the one that's gotta die
When it's time for me to die
So let me live my life the way... I want to.

Yeah. ..
Sing on brother,
Play on brother. ..


these days, "Nobody know what I'm talking about" is how I feel all the time... and it's actually pretty awesome.  ;D

;D

I just can't believe the crap they talk about. It's real life tunnel vision or something. Like they are at war with liberals. Or Obama. Pretty damn sad bunch of folks if you ask me.

I hope like hell Hilary isn't the choice for President on the dem side. Thats all we need is a slimy fucking snake for President. I'll definitely have to vote republican if she's the choice, and I surely don't want to.

They're all slimy snakes.  


FOX has it's uses, they have the eye candy and the fun leaks.  As far as Hillary goes, they're just getting warmed up...

I hate the thought of having to see and hear her for 4 or 8 years.

There's not a single candidate so far that I think I can stomach for 8 years. But hell, we've been living with a batshit crazy Senate and House forever now. It doesn't actually matter whether you vote Dem or Pub for president--you live in a solid red state.

You wanna get really mad?  Watch CSPAN

Not really. We elected the first republican governor we've had since 1988. Pretty much a moderate state. People are getting pissed at our states representatives actions. Not sure what your talking about.

Wait--are you living in North Carolina?  Not exactly a swing state, but they did vote democratic for president... once... since 1980.  Generally, I'd call that a red state.

I wouldn't.

Well, put it this way-- California has voted for a Republican more times than North Carolina has voted for a Democrat since 1980.  

I don't care about California

Fair enough. My point is, it doesn't matter whether you vote for Hilary or not.  Odds are very good your state will vote for the Republican.  

Odds are, republicans will add states if Hilary is the Dems choice. I can't stand Bill either, by the way. However, I think he did a good job as President. Hilary is one of those politicians that, you don't trust, and...... you can't trust her. The Clintons are exactly whats wrong with politics, in a nut shell. But I heard her speak and what a damn fine politician she is. Nailed it and it was bullshit and you don't care kind of good. Because, she is Hilary.

Which politicians do you trust?

None. I don't like the idea of being a politician for a living. If we have a Dem president he/she won't be able to do anything anyway.

Why would that be?

Republican majoriety in house and senate. Pretty much the same problem Obama's having. Not to mention the extreme idiot as speaker of the house. I dislike him.

Well, right now Hilary is polling 5% better than any Republican they put her up against. That's enough to win.

By the way, it's very likely she'll be facing Bush.  Do you trust the Bushes more than the Clintons?

No. But I'd vote republican so he could at least get things done. I think it;s fucked up the way Obama's hands have been tied behind his back basically for 8 years. However, I hate to see republican win, Bush or whoever, and get us involved in another war in the middle east. I like Obama;s effort on that subject.

Oh I don't think they are interested in another Middle East war.  I think they are much more worried about the coming government invasion.

Ohio, Iowa, Colorado, Virginia, Florida, New Hampshire, Nevada.  Democrats start out with 247 electoral votes, and need to win Ohio and one other state that's bigger than New Hampshire, or to just win Florida.  The rest of the states are pretty much guaranteed to go for one candidate or the other.  

I know you think it's more complicated and nuanced than that, but it's really not.  It's a race to 270 votes. The fact that the South is a whole bunch of small states, exactly the thing that helps it get so many representatives in the House and Senate, hurts it massively in the electoral college.
