Obama Thugs, In League with Google, Bully Bloggers

Give the Obamabots credit. They are clever at exploiting loopholes and finding ways to shut down opposition voices. Come to think of it, the Soviets were pretty good at that kind of information control and intimidation as well.
It appears that anyone who blogs with Google supported BLOGSPOT is vulnerable to being shutdown unilaterally if they are targeted by a group of bloggers who claim the site is responsible for spam. All you have to do is click on this link and start your complaint.
Just paste that blog url in there a couple of hundred times. You have the time! You know that if Blogger gets enough of these that Blogger will shut down the site until they get around to reviewing the site.
People complaining do not have to identify themselves. In fact, a small group of thugs can do a lot of damage, at least in the short run.
What would the Obama folks think if we tried to employ the same tactics on them? We could use the same link to shut all Obama blogs down. But that’s the difference between us and them. We are not afraid to debate our ideas. Shutting down discourse is not our thing. Also, we believe that every vote should be counted. Unlike the Obama folks, who disenfranchise 50% of the voters in Michigan and Florida, we say, “count them all.”
BLOGSPOT is putting itself out of business if it keeps this up. Shutting blogs down for no good reason, in fact, for false reasons, tends to piss bloggers off. Folks are starting to vote with their feet. They will go elsewhere and set up shop. A temporary inconvenience but one designed to ensure that the blogger is free to write and speak what he or she believes to be true.
Take a look at the list attack by the Obama thugs.

I took a quick look at the Wordpress site, and it doesn’t look like they have a similar “report spam” link. I’m sure they appreciate the increased exposure as people get knocked off of Blogger.
I’ve had a nice conversation with wordpress. With a REAL person! They don’t lock up blogs by mob rule. They LOOK at the blog first.
The BOBOweenies at Huffy Poo were flagging/scrubbing the posts of Hillary supporters for months. That was much easier for then then actually thinking and rebutting. Flagging blogs against their beloved BOBO is the same behavior. BOBO and his BOBOmultitudes have a serious problem with free speech that shines the light on the darker corners of the BOBOcloset yet they are all for free speech when it’s gushing over with love for their dear BOBO.
it WASN’T JUST HILLARY SUPPORTERS BEING KEPT FROM POSTING AT Huff Post..Edwards supporters were as well!

I have NEVER seen such tactics employed.
Larry says that Hillary supporters would never do such a thing.
Not only would we never do such a thing, it’d never even OCCUR to us to do such a thing.
But it is a regular activity of Obama’s thugs — to try to intimidate and silence anyone who disagrees with their blessed candidate.
Steve Diamond calls these people “authoritarian leftists” — that they are.
They are not really leftists. They are just plain old fascists.
That’s how they purged all of the democratic blogs of Clinton supporters.
That is how Obama operates.
These thugs need to be outted.
I want to know who they are.
This is exactly correct: This is how they purged the at-one-time progressive blogs.
The new ’spam attack’ for the blogspot sites is the old troll rating pile-on in hopes of initiating an autoban.
Great call, Standard.
All of this is orchestrated, discussed, planned and executed. All of it is fascist. This is how you attempt to take a teleprompter candidate who cannot win the majority of his party’s votes and make him seem like he’s not a former coke-smoking ‘uh uh uh’ mumbler who is fully prepared to switch his positions on FISA, public financing and DC gun laws in the span of about a week.
When these people are toppled from power, and it won’t be long before that happens, they are going to go out like Mussolini: humiliated and debased.
When your entire operation is built around these and similar tactics, what historically happens when you lose a step, so to speak, is that your adversaries not only defeat but destroy you. That is, thuggery begets thuggery.
As Larry Johnson said, we PUMAs are not fascist Obamatons. We’re not going to turn on them and start making death threats or posting pictures of them and detailing where they work in order to try to get them fired or to intimidate them.
But that hardly matters.
There are people higher up the food chain than ourselves who are carefully documenting what has happened and are keeping score and taking names.
I have said this before and will repeat it here: When the worm turns on the anti-American, duplicitous Barack Hussein Obama, it is going to turn with a ferocity and swiftness that people might not expect. The Messiah will become the Devil overnight.
And when that occurs, remember this Google bullying. This and the other 1,000,000 Stalinistic instances will be the reasons that so many will be only too happy to not only lay the casket at Obama’s political funeral but to kick dirt over the grave.

I’ve seen such tactics: The People’s Republic of China for one. Seems World War 2 did not get rid of all the fascists.
I see. Because a few anonymous online people might (I see no direct evidence, but let’s stipulate that it’s true) have used online spam-reporting forms to knock some PUMA sites offline, therefore the Obama campaign itself is comparable to Red China and the Nazis?
Every day I read NQ and wonder what the most ridiculously overheated line of the day will be. This one might be today’s winner!
I think SusanUnPC hit the nail on the head. We not only wouldn’t do something like this; it really wouldn’t occur to us to do it. Don’t you find it just a bit worrisome that free speech means so little to even a few of Obama’s supporters?
I think that in any population exceeding a million members you will find a few of almost everything. If there are a few thousand active members of this NQ community, I guarantee you that a small number of us are criminals of one kind or another, or have done horrible things that would reflect badly on us all if they were known. I guarantee you that the same can be said of HRC’s campaign, and of Bill Clinton’s presidency, and McCain’s inner circle, and so on. That’s just the way the world is. Obama has probably over a million active volunteers on his campaign, and uncounted millions of “supporters” on the net. Is it possible that a few of them got together and decided to scam Blogger and knock some PUMA sites temporarily offline. To exrapolate from that to a conclusion that the Obama campaign itself wants to stifle competitive speech in this manner is utterly ridiculous.
Considering obama squashes debates, hand picked the delegates going to the convention, hides or didnt’ keep his IL senate records, lies about his positions and steals Hillary’s to make himself look better, directs his little minions when to go on attack, I would say he is very much in the mode of an Authoritarian, Dictator, type personality. Facism, Communism, call it what you will it is all the same type of oppressive type ideology and obama and his camp definately can be compared with the actions they have taken. Oh black separatist, same as the rest.
Obama took place in dozens of primary season debates. Like every frontrunner, he now wants to limit them. Like every primary winner, he wants to control which delegates attend the party’s national convention. Show me which positions of Hillary’s Obama “stole;” I read the candidates’ websites pretty exhaustively very early on in the primary season and was struck by how similar Obama and HRC’s platforms were. “Directs the little minions when to go on attack.” What does this even mean? You mean he runs his campaign? Yeah, he does. Pretty damn well, too. And I will admit that Obama and his senior staff have shown much greater message control discipline than we are used to seeing from Democratic national campaigns in recent decades. About damn time; it’s one of many reasons that the guy is actually going to win.
Anyway, your conflation of all those very minor, normal campaign attributes with a “dictator-type personality” is the sort of wildly over-stated silliness that, unfortunately, pervades this website, and PUMA sites in general.
Then why are you CONSTANTLY coming here and writing long-winded posts that nobody reads except yourself?
If nobody was responding to my posts I wouldn’t keep writing them. But in reality (there’s that pesky word again) virtually every post I write gets at least one or two responses.
>>>>>Obama took place in dozens of primary season debates. Like every frontrunner, he now wants to limit them
sfhillary - you’re wrong! Last summer, when Hillary was the frontrunner, Obama decided to limit his participation in debates.
This was preceded by his declaration that Bush and Cheney HAD NOT committed impeachable offenses.
Both were red flags that Obama was the Establishment’s candidate and could say and do what he damned well pleased — WHILE he was claiming to be the underdog and outsider.
Oops! Obamabots - duped again.
You can’t guarantee anything. Obama is a shady character with shady connections and he has a legion of thugs, I saw them storm the Texas cacacuses and police had to be called in. You are nothing but an Obama supporter.
Please show me a media citation of Obama “thugs” storming the Texas caucuses such that the police had to be called in. Thanks.
You do your own research, I was there. And you also vet your own candidate.
I just did a news and blog search and was unable to find a single citation of anything like what you described. Just FYI.
sfhilly the FAKE and a obamabot..
shouldn’t you be emptying your poop bucket and punching out by now? You’ve been blogging for Obama for the last 17 hours.
Learn to do better research.
I am from Texas and my Step Daughter is a Police Officer. My Mother is 88 years old and can hardly walk with a walker and was literally atttacked when she went to vote in the Caucus that evening in February. They ask her if she was going in to cast her vote for Obama and she said no that she was voting for Hillary, they took her walker away from her and told her she was at the wrong place, that this was the voting place for Obama. They told her she had to go across town to vote for Hillary. She asked for her walker back and they dumped it over the rail on the ground below. She was holding onto the rail and started to cry because she couldn’t move. Two gentlemen got to her and told her they would help her and that the police were on the way, for they had called them when they saw what was going on. By the time I got there they were getting very insulting and rude and calling her names, then Jennifer my step-daughter and her partner showed up. They asked what was going on and they said her walker fell over the rail and they were just trying to help her. Fortunately there were several witnesses and Jennifer was smart enough to know that the walker coundn’t have fell over the rail for it was to high. All four were arrested, for abuse to an elderly person. I hope the hell they send them to Prison for the maxium sentence. Obama supporters are nothing but a bunch of gangsters and thugs and I have NO respect for anyone that backs him, other than the ones that are being forced to do it to protect their Political Careers. I can’t imagine how you missed what happened at the Texas Caucus’, for it happened all over the State, in every town that held a Caucus and it was all over the TV and Newspapers. You sound like every Obama supporter that I have met or seen on a blog, blind to every crooked thing he and his supporters (thugs) have done. So don’t defend that unqualified, bigoted, racists, America hating liar to me or in my presence. He will never win the Whitehouse if the Coalition sticks to their Pledge and I can assure you that the almost 5 Million at Hillary Clinton Supporters For John McCain will, for we all pledged not to vote for him in November, as have the millions of other members of the Coalition, which consists of almost 200 other groups. Our motto is “Come November We Will Remember”! So by the Grace of God and with his help and the millions of us that have pledged not to vote for him, he should be on his way back to Chicago to his gangster, racists and terrorists friends where he belongs on November the 5th and hopefully never to be heard from again. The only time I want to hear about him is in the headlines when he is finally arrested for some of the shady deals he was involved in with his shady thug friends. The truth about him will come out sooner or later and I just hope it is before people are actually fooled into going to the polls and voting for him.
Oh my gosh. That’s horrible.
Evelyn — thats the worst thing I ever heard. God bless your mom and tell her I will Remember in November too. This must be the kind of tactics he welcomes because he never admonishes anyone for their behavior. I don’t care what the party says — I will never vote for Obama.
Have someone punch some holes in your jar’s lid. Soon.
The entire significance of Obama’s campaign is that it is all smoke. When asked a tough question, he sounds like someone out of Firesign Theater saying things like, “That’s a very good question. And when I’m elected, people will be free to never ask questions like that again.” cue applause, cue fat woman feinting, cue Barry, uh Barack
“Obama has probably over a million active volunteers on his campaign, and uncounted millions of “supporters” on the net.”
So did Hitler and his Nazis. “Uncle Joe’ Stalin and his Soviets. Chairman Mao and his Commmunists. There’s a word for such followers of their “Dear Leaders’ - goons.
RJKT, Obama and his thugs are dangerous and Evelyn, I totally believe you about what happened to your Mom. Now SFhillary go away, there is your proof from Evelyn and there is a lot more shit out there.
Here is what happened to me on YT.
A person with a screen name of Oswaldo123432 threatened to kill Larry Sinclair before that Press Conf. that Sinclair had on 6-18 and while I do not approve of Sinclair, I defended him to this Oswaldo and it was through the message feature on YT. Oswaldo sent me back a message through YT full of threats to me and also he totally had my full identity and he said more. Now people tell me how this can happen.
I have filed a complaint with the Security dept. of Google and I am also going to the FBI and will possibly file a lawsuit against YT.
Yes RJKT, this could turn into Nazi Germany if Obama is elected. Google is totally in the tank for Obama and his thugs.
Sounds just like BO.
Anybody remember what happened to Alice Palmer.
No surprise here. Stratfor Reports claims that Senator Obama has the support of the skin heads/white supremest. Stratffor is more than a credible source.These skin heads prefer Obama to McCain or Hillary because they feel these two are to close to us Jews. They feel more “at home” with Obama, Wright, Meeks, Farrakhan, etc,
Skinheads/white supremacists are right wingers, not left wingers.
I bet many of them are former Repubs. That is their tactics. NOT authoritarian leftists. They are almost unheard of here in the US.
Why people keep insisting that Obama is a leftist is beyond me. He’s to the right of Clinton.
Hi, Susan..
So long as we are following the terms of agreement, it would seem to me that there must be some illegality in their actions. And I’d start simply with violation of our 1st Amendment rights…anyone with any legal knowledge out there?
Nobamanever!
Here is a site to blog which is free, pretty easy to set up, you can block people of your choice,put videos,pictures,music ..a comment page allows you to leave messages to your friends,you can send personal messages to your friends across this site so you do not have to use a regular email address. There isnt much at all any problems with Obama supporters, we all pretty much get along. I am a McCain supporter who has befriended a few Hillary supporters from posting on a few pro Hillary sites and I helped one set a blog up last night and had my friends welcome her, if you Hillary supporters need a place where you wont be bothered,try it out.
any questions or help, feel free to email me

Hi -
It’s happened to me already and I expected it shortly as I’ve noted a vast increase by bot trollers and if it happens again, I, too, will move to Wordpress.
Thanks for the info.
You should said Chicago’s mob !!
cheers -PUMA
This is really sad and people need to fight back. I’ve posted some tips I’ve used on my blog to help me gain top postions on my Anti-Obama posts.
I originally had planned not to share these tips with anyone but considering what has been happening to these blogs I reconsidered and decided to share. I’ve been able to use these techniques to gain a lot of first and second place positions in Google and the other search engines which have put my message in front of thousands.
You can read my tips at http://www.mytowntalks.com/misc/blogging-tips-for-anti-obama-sites.php
WE MUST REALLY BE HITTING A NERVE. WHY ARE THEY SO AFRAID HE CAN’T WIN? BECAUSE ANYONE EVEN WITHOUT GLASSESCAN SHE HE IS UNELECTABLE.
What should the US Government do to the Democratic Party for holding a sham of an election like the African Nation of Zimbabwe a cousin country to Kenya?
The U.S. has financial and travel penalties in place against more than 170 citizens and entities with ties to Mugabe of Zimbabwe, the White House says.

They gave up spray painting Andre the Giant stencils all over town for this much cooler form of vandalism!
McGovern much?
Medusa:
They have been doing this for a while on blogs; the idea –imo– is that BHO is a coward via a vis his middle name. He is afraid of it and the
people’s reaction b/c he himself is a bigot. So he is sending the kids to the front lines to test the waters and make the “public” used to hear it and
associate it with “white friendly faces” (it’s disgusting propaganda).
So that then everyone becomes desensitized and associate “Huseein”
to these harmless kids faces rather than something else before he himself starts owing his middle name publicly. It is soo obvious and so disgusting…
What a BIGOT !!!!!
Are you for real? The fact that a bunch of young Obama supporters express their support — and make a public rejection of implicit anti-Muslim bias — by adopting his middle name somehow translates into Obama being a bigot?
That is utterly deranged logic, even by NQ standards.
No, I think it’s much stranger than that. It is not uncommon for cultists to want to take the name of him whom they worship. Listen carefully now.
Young. Followers. Are. Changing. Their. Middle. Names. For. Obama.
You do not find that the least bit disconcerting?
I pointed this out months ago that cultists on TPM were calling themselves Hussein, like Malcolm changing his last name to X…so his followers did.
I tried to interest the media but couldn’t. This has nothing to do with combating anti muslim bias. Barack having the name Hussein and insisting he never was a muslim has more to do with stirring up bigotry anyway.
How many people name their kids Barack Hussein who are not muslim?
I know he’s not a muslim now, he’s a marxist Black Liberation theologist, but by saying he never was, he’s implying there is something wrong with being muslim. My muslim friends, who are European muslims , not middle eastern, see him for the fraud he is. The ones who could vote in this country voted for Hillary, BECAUSE OF TUZLA. They thought she was so brave to come and bring her daughter.
This Hussein crap is trendy/culty garbage and has about as much to do with Islamic pride as Madonna calling herself Esther has to do with Judaism.
Honestly, though, I refuse to read the NYT or look at the picture. Happiness and calm are too important for me.
I’m not voting for Barky, and that’s it for me. Why do I need to fire myself up reading this cult worship PR?
Read the freakin article. They are changing their online names, not their actual names. Your online name is uppity woman. Are you not trying to make a statement with that? Look how many commenters here have Hillary as part of their online name. Talk about an over reaction. Jeez.
Jeff Strabone of Brooklyn now signs credit card receipts with his newly assumed middle name, while Dan O’Maley of Washington, D.C., jiggered his e-mail account so his name would appear as “D. Hussein O’Maley.” Alex Enderle made the switch online along with several other Obama volunteers from Columbus, Ohio, and now friends greet him that way in person, too.
and this basically says they are too lazy or cheap to legally change their name, I am sure Uppity would think about having friends greet her in person or the only reason she isn’t legally changing HER name is “Legally changing names is too much hassle, participants say
Are they getting tattoos, too?
Pwaaaahahahahahaha!
LOL!! Long time no “see”!
I’m glad they are bringing more attention to Obama’s middle name. There has been a total lock down on mentioning his real middle name, because it would be “racist.”
There are so many people in the USA who do not KNOW his middle name, so I encourage all Obama followers to continue to spread the word, I’m sure Obama loves it as well.
my first thought at the picture was they sure used facial expressions of thugs for a happy hopey changing group of people, yep they sure look like they want to unite everyone
I find it to be a media-savvy young person’s political statement which actually has a long tradition, starting with all the slaves coming forward and saying “I am Spartacus.” Another manifestation was this recent “I Am African” campaign:
http://www.cherryflava.com/cherryflava/images/paltrow.jpg
In this case, after a few hours’ reading of blogs like this one, where so many posters make a point of using the name “Hussein,” or reading the rest of the right-wing blogosphere (Ann Coulter, for instance, calls him “B. Hussein Obama”), I think the Obama fans’ campaign is kind of cool. They’re telling everyone who uses Barack’s middle name to try and boogie up anti-Muslim, anti-Arab bias that they can take their trivial smear campaigns and shove it. And I gree with that sentiment completely.
Hundreds of Insane Obama sites and you drop in here to support Hussein Obama. You won’t find any takers.
Don’t be so sure. Speech has an impact. I won’t find any PUMAs to convert on Obama sites. You’re all here. So here I am as well.
Obama supporters are arrogant, they think they can persuade anyone but you are enough to turn people into voting for McCain.
Great, LMAO it wants to convert us. This BOBOweenie is proof positive that BOBOmania has now descended into religion.
You sure as hell aren’t going to convert anyone on here to Obama . The only ones here that are going to go for Obama are like you, they are already members of the his cult! You are wasting your breath and wearing your fingers out, so why don’t you go back to the Obama lovers blogs and take the rest of the Obama lovers that are on here with you!
Your goal here is conversion? I’ll be swiggled, because I would have guessed that your intent was to irritate and annoy the readers of this list. Choose your goals carefully, and then attempt to implement them in a positive way.
sf hillary — You don’t think much of yourself do you? I can tell you that you will not get any converts in here. Just go away — you are meaningless.
sf hillary — You like yourself don’t you. Well we are not going to change our minds — so you might as well leave and make us all happy.
I usually just call him that sonofabitch
I have never called him Hussein, that sonofabitch.
In fact, in solidarity with those tragically unread youngsters, I hereby swear to never call that sonofabitch Hussein. He Is A MARXIST
I wonder how the parents feel about this.
Wrong!
By adopting his middle finger. Gneah, Gheah, Gheah, Gheah!
He showed he is prejudiced against his other four fingers.
How can you trust such a man?
McCain on the Brain
BOBO no GOGO
What can I say?
Gneah!
How about Obama’s own anti-Muslim bias–hiding Muslims from campaign events so people “don’t get the wrong idea.” Real leadership.
Are you one of the Obama supporters who changed his name? Perhaps you will follow Obama to Guyana if he loses.
Oh my !! THAT picture SPEAKS volumes!!! Look at the age and ATTITUDE of these CHILDREN! Wow! They know about as much about government and history as the fig tree in my backyard! This is just another ‘fun thing’ for our totally misguided youth… right there with Amer Idol, Surviver, ‘reality’ TV, etc… They don;t have a CLUE!!! I’d love to see anyone of them put themselves in the line of fire and actually be able to think on their own!!!
That is why adults do not let children, radicals and old hippies who never let go of the bong pick Presidents.
LOL….amen to that!! I’ve been saying. parents have raised a generation of lazy, selfish, radical and arrogant kids
Amen is right. We need to restrict the voting rights of people we do not agree with (radicals and hippies). That is the American way!
Actually, I sometimes worry it might have been our parents’ generation that did that…
Put themselves in the line of fire? Per the article, even changing their names legally is “too much hassle.”
Everything for kids like this is “too much hassle.” They’ve been raised to take the easy way out, and mom and dad are always there to do the heavy lifting whenever actual effort is required.
They may graduate from fancy colleges, but these spoiled young people have no work ethic, and no self-sufficiency. Just ask any employer who hires them.
They want to vote? Make ‘em take a test. How many branches of government? Who is the Chief Justice of the SC? What rights are protected by the First Amendment? Name three accomplishments of the empty suit you worship so much you have taken his middle name…
But then taking a test would be SO much hassle.
This is pathetic. “You damn kids get off my lawn!” You really think this crap is going to win an election? You really think Obama’s coalition is primarily African-Americans, young people and radicals? Damn, you are foolish.
No, Obama’s coalition is bitter gun-and-God clingers.
What “crap” are you talking about? Why is it unreasonable to ask voters to do a little digging to find out exactly what their candidate believes in, if anything? I want the person sitting in the White House to be more than another GWB. Obama may have all the pretty catch phrases and the MSM to kiss his ass, but that doesn’t mean squat. What are his real positions on anything? We keep asking this question, and all we get are kids playing stupid games with blog access. They need to stop thinking that they are just playing a version of the TV show, “Survivor”, where dirty tricks, double-dealing, and back-stabbing are thought to be good things.
If you want more than just another GWB in the White House, I do not recommend voting for John McCain. And you are assuming based on the age of the people in the photo that they are not educated voters, which is a very silly and in all likelihood false assumption.
Nobody asked for you recommendation and you are taking time off from worshipping black liberation theology.
Blahblahblahblahblahblahblahblah
Obama = Bush III
Yes it is and which one are you?
I’m mid-40s, white, married with a kid, and a moderate libertarian who is, if anything, to the right of general mainstream Democratic Party rhetoric, but is so appalled by President bush and his band of criminals that at this point I’d vote for Homer Simpson against any Republican anywhere on the ballot until Bush and his whole crowd is expunged from that party. Obama wasn’t my first choice but he has impressed me more and more (excepting FISA, a disgusting and damaging political move), I’m quite confident he’ll make a fine mainstream Democratic president (just like HRC would have), and it is a very easy call to vote for him over McCain, who in his latest flipflopping incarnation is promising to govern as a Bush clone. Which is totally unacceptable to any thinking progressive.
And you are absurdly wrong about the Obama coalition. Blacks are maybe 20-30% tops. “Radicals” extremely small. Under-30s, again, maybe 20%. the majority of Obama voters are whites and Latinos who are 30 and older, many of whom lean independent. This is because the majority of all Democratic voters fall into those categories. This is simple demographics, man, don’t be ridiculous.
Go away paid bot. You fool NO ONE.
If you had any brains you would vote for Homer Simpson over Obama. You probably think all of Obama’s advisors are great, such as Wright, Phleger, Meeks, Ayers, Moss, etc.
You Obama supporters are pathetic, are you actually arrogant enough to think you can convince people who are wise to Obama to vote for him? You are delusional.
I think I understand a little better why you’re not outraged by Obama and company. Anyone who’s been a longtime active Democrat, with half a brain left in her head, is livid over the travesty of democracy that occurred during the DNC’s Rules and Bylaws Committee meeting on 5/31. I watched it all on CSPAN.
That was definitely the capper for me. They blatantly violated the Sunshine Laws and Regulation 4.24, Rule 13, clause C of the Dem Party constitution, which states that “uncommitted” is its own discrete entity and is to be treated the same as any other candidate. That means, in MI, where Bo took his name off the ballot as part of his strategy, he should have netted ZERO delegates. ZERO. Instead, they robbed uncommitted of 55 delegates and threw heaped them like rose petal upon Barack. Then they stole 4 delegates from Sen. Clinton and gave them to the Harvard-grad affirmative action candidate.
Maybe if you’d been a Dem for 35 years like me, you’d be livid, too.
I would ask you to check out two different YouTube videos, if you would, please, before you castigate any one of us again: “DNC–Fractured Fairy Tales” (it’s in Dean’s and Brazile’s own words) and “Harold Ickes Threatens to Take it to the Convention (or something like that; close enough). Thanks.
Oops…typo in my post above. It’s Reg. 4.25.
One of my twenty-something nieces claims she didn’t vote for Hillary in the primary because Hillary didn’t divorce Bill. Guess what? This niece has been in a
