Is This Guy Serious?

First, I’ve got to apologize for our lack of updates. Have no fear, we have plenty in the works. If Hillary Clinton is any indication though there’s plenty to talk about when it comes to people in the public eye doing insanely ludicrous things. Today’s post comes after a week in which two separate people alleged that staff members from Hillary Clinton’s campaign approached them and suggested they ask specific questions at Clinton’s appearances. While I understand that these guys want to win, it strikes me as flat out terrifying that the idea of trying to get specific questions asked of them is nothing less than an insult to democracy. After the first instance, in which a Female college student called the Clinton appearance “canned”, and explained that she was told to ask a certain question, NBC confirmed the allegation with Clinton Staffers.

“On this occasion, a member of our staff did discuss a possible question about Senator Clinton’s energy plan at a forum,” a campaign spokesperson said. “However, Senator Clinton did not know which questioners she was calling on during the event. This is not standard policy and will not be repeated again.”

I read this to mean “we’ll be much more discreet the next time we try to cheat!”
