tower time posted:Head of the Iowa Democratic Party resigned today due to health issues. His brief tenure as head of the party saw the state delegation voting for Perez as a bloc and their candidate for a special election in a state house congressional district failing to file paperwork in time to get on the ballot. look you need to be realistic. no one has time to actually "support a local candidate" and why should they? we need to donate to the national party to enrich our betters.

Gene Hackman Fan posted:i'll admit that this is my own personal bias at play here, but y'all don't understand what the classic rock stations are like down here in tennessee. their playlists are designed to take everything you like about old/older music and torture you with it. and they get creative with it, too -- it's not just them playing bad songs, like david essex's "rock on" even though they play that as often as they report the traffic, but they'll also take the worst entries from good bands and play them every hour on the hour. you like van halen? get ready for the the quarterly playing of "ain't talking bout love" because bob the manager at predatory checkcasher's down on kingston pike can't get enough of it (even though the franchise holder threatened to terminate his agreement if there's one more sexual harassment suit, but they buy ad time at the station so gently caress it). Radio playlists aren't dictated by the local ad-buys. They are data-driven and they all play from the same list of 500 songs, especially for classic rock. Your radio station is owned by either cumulus or clearchannel and it is identical to every other classic rock radio station across the country. The DJ is probably not even local, lol. ate shit on live tv has issued a correction as of 20:50 on Jun 30, 2017 |

Tennessee surely has its own unique flavor of suck, but the radio station quality is just the status quo of the country. if you had an independent local radio station (which might exist in Nashville) it would be an automatic improvement over the rest of the commodified and focus grouped media market.

Bernie has popular policies that his appeal is based off of. Hillary didn't and her "appeal" was forced. In fact I hope the GoP goes whole hog against Bernie and he wins anyway. e: And while we are hoping, I hope Single payer gets passed in the first 100 days of his presidency just as an added gently caress you to 2016 bad dem status quo. ate shit on live tv has issued a correction as of 22:03 on Jul 1, 2017 |

Anta posted:I know almost nothing about American Football, this was a draw/win for the kicking team that they turned into a hilarious loss by trying to run up the score? Yep. It was a super long field goal that would be difficult for even a really good field-goal kicker (something like 50yards), but the kickers longest field goal was 20 yards, and he was 1 for 2 so it was literally a long-shot that back-fired spectacularly.

National Borders + a permissive but not unlimited immigration policy are as good as you are going to get for a long time. Additionally strong controls on out-sourcing to prevent Multinational Corporations from exploiting the countries outside of ours.
