Who to blame for this one? Obama, Trump, Rubio, Clinton, Romney?
ANCHORAGE, Alaska – A man suspected of intentionally driving a snowmobile into teams of two mushers near the front of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race was arrested Saturday in a Yukon River village.
Arnold Demoski, 26, of Nulato was arrested on suspicion of assault, reckless endangerment, reckless driving and six counts of criminal mischief.
A message left for Demoski at his home was not immediately returned. He told the Alaska Dispatch News that he had not intentionally driven into the dog teams of Aily Zirkle and Jeff King, but he had blacked out while returning from drinking in another village.

The fact that you too haven't reached the mental equivalent of "You must be this tall to ride" doesn't mean I have to waste my time explaining it to you.
This assumes that your time has some value. It doesn't. Secondarily, it implies that you could explain something. You can't.
Why not just go back to sheepfukking? Wear a rubber so you don't infect any of them.

none of the fees at any level of government were anything but modest and most of the process was conducted painlessly on-line.
I love it when people confirm my post while trying to disagree with it.
Thanks.

the Chicago Rally cancellation scam...
http://www.truthdig.com/eartotheground/item/donald_trump_chooses_to_cancel_chicago_rally_20160311
Mark Twain, “Anybody can tell lies: There is no merit in a mere lie, it must possess art, it must exhibit a splendid and plausible and convincing probability. That is to say, it must be powerfully calculated to deceive.”
to quote the dictator’s handbook...
Violence at these events, which may start organically, is in effect spot lit and encouraged to the point where it becomes something that is legitimately out of control of anyone. And then the spectacle of political violence is itself seen as something that is a problem that needs to be solved by this strongman character who incited the initial event in the first place

Crikey, if that's what you took away from it then you truly are dumb as a stump and that ain't easy. I would also take that to mean, no, you've never started a business.

Donald Trump demands that police arrest rally protesters
Donald would seem to have a poor grasp on the bill of rights. And for a guy who encourages dissent against the government he himself seems to have some pretty serious problems with dissent.

Protect rights equally, but afford the freedom for people - all people- to live, earn, fail and succeed on their own. The minute government tries to level the playing field, like many things the government does, it normally has the exact OPPOSITE intended effect. And the elite take further advantage.
As it turns out, black people are pretty smart. They can figure it out just like the rest of us. They can do it, I've seen it happen.
I am pretty certain African Americans and other people of color are much the same as Caucasian people, when it comes to intelligence and motivation. That is, running the gamut from high to low.
The thing many people misunderstand about equal opportunity initiatives is that they AREN'T intended to help a person who is perceived as somehow inferior to another group, but to lower the ability of that other group from to abuse the "perceived as inferior" group.
If you truly believe that, on their own accord, the Caucasian American male(in general) would have willingly treated others(ethnic groups, religious groups, women, and even in some cases other white males who didn't attend "the right schools") equally as they teat their own, you are living in a fantasy world.

The one trait of conservatives that is so pathetic and shows what their true moral values; it's their pathological hypocrisy and never being able to be accountable for anything, they just shift the blame somewhere else

Rubio Blames Obama And ‘The Left’ For Violence At Trump Rallies
http://thinkprogress.org/politics/2016/03/12/3759417/rubio-blames-obama-trump-violence/
The anger of voters and the rise of Trump is Not Obama's fault.
It is the Conservative media and Republican politicians and their terrible policies that has created this anger.
I'm angry too.
They really f*#ked up, and voting them in again will not help calm the anger.
Voting them out is only the first step

Yes Craig, it's really fuked up. Some (not all) of them are very deep in denial about the causes of their party's crackup.
I thought their crack up would come gradually over the next decade because of slowly changing demographics. If there is one blessing of trump's candidacy (assuming he loses) it's that it will force the Republican Party to start acknowledging basic facts (e.g., facts regarding science, economics, demography, etc.), put their kooks in their proper place, and act like a party interested in governing and addressing the needs of our country. Or, not--and die out. Either way, the country would be better off.

Trump has a bully mentality, has been provocative and loves stirring up reactionary emotions to the point of encouraging thug behavior. This message attracts many bad players to his side. It was provocative to schedule his event at a college campus in Chicago. What did he expect?
I certainly would expect leftists to devolve into shutting down free speech, or even resorting to violence, when they don't like what someone else stands for or says. That's the nature of their philosophy on campuses today. How else do they interpret Bernie's calls for revolution? The unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers even has his nose poking in.
To me this is two sides of the same coin. Dissatisfied reactionaries of the left or right calling each other names, resorting to violence and pointing fingers.
The reason these populist reactionaries of both the left and right are supported is because the real economy sucks in the 8 years since the recession. Bernie and Trump are speaking the truth on the true unemployment numbers.
Many reasons for the weak job numbers and those reasons are rooted in the failed philosophies of both the left and right.
Cheap name calling makes shallow people feel good, is broadcast and encouraged by the media, but civility is a casualty.
