The Unofficial But Kind of Official US Pawliticks Thread

Really hoping we can move forward with making Puerto Rico a state. Even though both parties have expressed interest in it happening, I don't think it will happen unless a clear majority of the entire territory vote for it, and I think the referendum they just passed only included about 1/3rd of residents.

By not electing Romney, we didn't just dodge a bullet, but a catastrophe

Mitt Romney Campaign Aides Had Credit Cards Canceled Late On Election Night

It boggles the mind that 48% of voters did not care that Romney sucked at every single thing he did that didn't involve bettering himself at the expense of others

I guess when it's between a black guy and a thieving asshole, they want the thieving asshole

Hello...

I must say "poker" is the best game ever invented so far. I believe it still needs some development & improvement in order to achive perfection. It needs to totally exclude the factor "luck". Then it will be only based on tells, psychology, skills and gaming and it will simply be perfect!

Besides the fact that it can be a profitable hobby, it provides you unbelievable entertainment and power on your opponent's minds, and ofcource without the chance of physical hurting them in any way, like football for example!

Viva la poker !

Yes, I remember when poker still allowed the blindside tackle. Was definitely not a fun game at that time.

At least Smith and Wesson still beats 4 Aces.
