(39,961 posts)So familiar that a few of ours have done time in the penitentiary. Nothing to be proud of, for certain, but at least we sent them to the big house for their crimes.
*Cher is a way of referring to a friend from the french word. Nothing weird about it if I refer to you as "cher" - it just means friend.

(62,325 posts)called a 'conspiracy'??
I watched all day as the results came in and by 5.30 it was clear that Bernie was CRUSHING Hillary in Kansas. I went to the Corp Media, (a real sacrifice btw) and saw NOTHING but Red, Trump, Kruz, et al,, not a THING about the Dem Primary.
Checked back often, saw nothing. Fortunately there were other sources who had already called it for Sanders.
CNN waited until 90% of the vote was in before finally mentioning it.
Same thing with Nebraska, it was clear he had won that state also.
Corp Media waited, Dem Chair came on rambled on about money not being available, we did our best etc etc as if he was APOLOGIZING. We KNEW Bernie had won from other news sources. He finally got it out Bernie Won
Then comes La. CNN announces Hillary way ahead with ONLY 5% of the vote in. Great, I'll wait. Two seconds later they CALL IT FOR HILLARY.
Yeah I know I'm a 'Cass Sunstein CT' and Proud of it.

(62,325 posts)But they refused to call Kansas and Nebraska even with 80% of the vote in. Dem Chair for Neb looked like he was going to CRY. Couldn't seem to get to the POINT. Made all kinds of excuses, 'we don't have money' etc before the finally had to get it out: Bernie Crushed Her.
