"Why don't we have a white caucus?"

CSPAN Callers in a sentence

 

[Envelope]

HER TRUE COLORS

she's white tho isn't she

 

[Quonny]

LOL

 

[Brian Griffin]

"Why is there no white caucus?" Jesus Christ these callers.

 

[Damaniel]

Wait... Not watching right now. What does everyone mean by callers?

It can't be what I think it means.

C-SPAN allows people to call in and offer their opinions (or in this case, verbal diarrhea passing as opinion), and they have separate call-in numbers for people who are affiliated with each political party (and a third line for 'other'). What happens in practice is that hardcore Tea Party-style Republicans call in on all the lines and spew their vitriol and conspiracy theories all over the airwaves. Very few of the callers have anything more interesting to say than 'Obama sucks' or 'Hillary sucks and lies' or 'I want my country back!'

 

[rambis]

Why isn't there a white caucus!!

Omfg.

 

[Raiku]

LOL

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

They're giving her a free 10 hour block to come across as presidential.

Yep, and she is delivering. GG guys, well fucking played.

 

[Spider from Mars]

Why we don't got white caucus????

 

[BertramCooper]

"I'd like to know why we don't have a White Caucus."

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Dude called in to ask why isn't there a white caucus lol.

 

[Veldin]

Ughhh

 

[Ziltoidia 9]

[Kenstar]

"I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHY WE AINT GOT NO WHITE CAUCUS IN CONGRIS'

these guys, thanks David from AZ

 

[Wallach]

Oh my god.

#WhiteCaucus

 

[Jonm1010]

Oh my god! "Why don't we have a white caucus in congress??"

How does CSPAN deal with this shit? Why is this the only nonsense that makes its way to CSPAN? You would think people that spend all day absorbed in politics would be a bit smarter then the idiocy that constantly cals in.

 

[samn]

Did you mean a right caucus?

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Guys..he's just trolling..

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

I'm so damned tired of this shit, why isn't there a white history month.

 

[Arkeband]

George Washington on the phone, go ahead.

"...what does this mean to you?"
"BABABOOEY BABABOOEY HOWARD STERN'S PENIS BABABOOEY"

 

[Veritigo_X]

Guys..he's just trolling..

Better to give him the benefit of the doubt than make assumptions.

 

[adj_noun]

Did you mean a right caucus?

NAH a white caucus! Spelled w-h-i-t-e! Ya got a black caucus, a mexican caucus...

David from Arizona. We will never forget you until we do.

 

[Kenstar]

is this guy going to monologue about the party system on air

this is worse than Minecon

 

[Epsilon-delta]

This caller is trying too hard.

 

[Quonny]

This caller must have spent all day writing this script.

LOL HE DID WRITE IT

 

[Mecha]

Here's the part 4 link for those who can't find it.

 

[DOWN]

I only hope whoever is president can be as patient as HRC is being today

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Better to give him the benefit of the doubt than make assumptions.

You know it..

How does this woman keep a straight face during these calls? lol..

 

[Jonm1010]

This caller must have spent all day writing this script.

LOL HE DID WRITE IT

All for a stupid point about parties.

All that work and he misses the point completely.

 

[adj_noun]

There are times I feel like I'm listening to Grand Theft Auto political radio.

 

[hydragonwarrior]

"You can see that she's lying."

The whole thing screams conspiracy theory from all sides. Lack of evidence is actually the best evidence of wrongdoing, no matter what she says she's lying because she's a liar because they just know it. Fuck all these fucks.

EDIT: this caller is second to point out the sweat, lol

Dude it's the same mindset as the stupid birthers. You won't convince them no matter what - I'm surprised there has not been a birth certificate committee.

 

[Paskil]

We got 9/11 here, I hope we get a Holocaust reference from the next caller.

 

[Wyndstryker]

There are times I feel like I'm listening to Grand Theft Auto political radio.

Sad thing is this isn't fiction.

 

[Damaniel]

Ugh.

THE REASON THERE ISN'T A WHITE CAUCUS IS BECAUSE THE WHOLE DAMN CONGRESS IS A WHITE CAUCUS BY DEFAULT!

Morons.

 

[HylianTom]

Some thoughts:
- While MSNBC covers this non-stop, Fox News has moved on to Trump and Carson. Pretty damn telling.

- I also listened-in on C-SPAN. That twinge you're hearing in a lot of calls on the GOP line? Fear. They know: she wins, and the country's political center shifts left. They likely lose the Supreme Court. Donors begin to force a change in GOP politics at that point.

- Meanwhile.. after watching >80% of the testimony, knowing that the GOP members on this panel are supposedly hand-picked all-stars? I pity whomever she has to debate next October.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Ugh.

THE REASON THERE ISN'T A WHITE CAUCUS IS BECAUSE THE WHOLE DAMN CONGRESS IS A WHITE CAUCUS BY DEFAULT!

Morons.

So what are you trying to say, we shouldn't have a white caucus. Sounds racist to me.

 

[Quonny]

Why even have lines when Republicans are calling on the Democrat line and vice-versa?

 

[Jonm1010]

There are times I feel like I'm listening to Grand Theft Auto political radio.

Listening to CSPAN callers makes me realize how fucking flawed democracy is. People are fucking stupid and it ruins so much.

 

[Mecha]

The Clinton family is the mafia.

 

[Epsilon-delta]

Another closet Republican, Independent with conspiracy theories.

 

[Veritigo_X]

"Well let's look at the email side of things...instead of that other stuff you talked about."

 

[Fourth Storm]

Dat conspiracy talk!

"Dead by a gunshot wound to the back of the head."

Why not just say it outright? You think she's a Reptilian, don't you?

 

[Arkeband]

"Yo why isn't this Benghazi Committee talking about Bill's child prostitution ring?"

 

[Kenstar]

There are times I feel like I'm listening to Grand Theft Auto political radio.

TBH Normal people dont call these phone lines so there's already a huge filter leaving only crazies to call about how bush knew 9/11 was coming and why dont we focus on bill clinton working with a known child prostitute ringleader

 

[FloydtheFathead]

Listening to CSPAN callers makes me realize how fucking flawed democracy is. People are fucking stupid and it ruins so much.

Best of the worst..

 

[Starviper]

Any good clips? I apparently missed all of this

 

[Armaros]

Ugh.

THE REASON THERE ISN'T A WHITE CAUCUS IS BECAUSE THE WHOLE DAMN CONGRESS IS A WHITE CAUCUS BY DEFAULT!

Morons.

I DEMAND A WHITE HISTORY MONTH AND WHITE CHURCHES.

THIS ANTI-WHITE AGENDA HAS GONE ON LONG ENOUGH. /s

 

[hydragonwarrior]

Yeah if she can deal with rabid dogs like these, she can probably deal with Trump in punch-everyone-mode with very little trouble.
