Bill Thompson drops out of NYC mayoral primary, backs rival Bill de Blasio – Yahoo News.

“Thompson, 60, did not hide, however, his outrage over the city’s problem-plagued Board of Elections failure to “count every vote.” Thompson called it a “disgrace” that thousands of ballots still remain uncounted and that it could take as long as three weeks to complete the tallying. Thompson said the city’s voting system needs fundamental reform to ensure every New Yorker’s vote is counted in a timely way.”

Every election in every area always functions that way. Welcome to election/campaign politics where they never, ever, ever count allof the votes.

Perhaps the condition was pre-existing.

On the other hand, our military and intelligence community suck ass at achieving lasting mission objectives but they sure as hell are damn good at creating mental illness and refusing to provide care for it.

In essence they specialize take patriotic young men and women, turn them into ticking time-bombs and throw them at society like it isn’t their job to protect them.

Dear Chipotle: Farmers respond to ‘scarecrow’ ad.

Dear Big Ag,

Get real. Family owned is a bullshit term. WalMart is family owned. Just because your family owns part of a factory doesn’t mean it isn’t a factory.

The number of farms with over 100 cows is simply staggering. The number of farms that warehouse their animals is staggering. The number of dairy farms is plummeting. The farms that remains are, by and large, corporate sized herds of animals that exist on farms that literally cannibalized all of the other family farms in the area.

GMO hysteria? Try to sound less like the corporate shills you clearly are.

Stop spreading lies and misleading the public, assholes.

GW might have hated black people but BHO is more egalitarian. 
He hates ALL working class and poor people.
He doesn’t give a shit about anyone who makes $250k/year.
…And he sure as hell isn’t going lift a finger to help anyone who isn’t work at least 7 figures.

My stomach boiled hearing you play populist on the campaign trail and as I suspected you are a heartless, lying, out of touch, poor people hating son of a bitch.

Hmmm, how did he get access? Military inefficiency? A lack of practical thinking at DHS?

Maybe if the US intelligence and military community spent less time snooping on American citizens and taking a shit on the Constitution and more time doing their actual fucking jobs it would occur to them to secure bases.
