TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Given the right thinks Obama is a socialist, I'd love to see what they'd make of Sanders, a self-confessed socialist of the old school.

I've been watching, the first 7 hours are pure rage and horrible truth, he starts to repeat himself a bit after that.   :lulz:

QuoteIn 1982, as Mr. Barbour ran unsuccessfully against Senator John C. Stennis, an article in The New York Times quoted Mr. Barbour as chiding an aide for a racist comment by saying that if the aide made similar remarks he would be reincarnated as a watermelon and placed at the mercy of blacks.

QuoteDuring a debate with all the candidates vying for the RNC chairmanship, Steele told the audience that his favorite book was Tolstoy's 1869 epic "War and Peace," one of the most celebrated books ever published.

But, then he followed up his answer with a peculiar quote: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times."

A wave on uneasy laughter swept across the room.

That's because his quote is the most famous line from Dickens' classic 1859 novel "A Tale of Two Cities."
