ebrk85 Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 Well yesterday was the worst day at the polls in the 14 years I have been doing it. Guy I had no interaction with calls me an asshole and gives me the finger. Another women as she is walking out says under her breath (but plenty loud to make sure I heard her) that "we really should just shoot all the Dems". Then asshole guy comes back to bring his father to vote. While he's waiting outside for his father he proceeds to just unload on me. I won't repeat what he said but I never have been called so many derogatory words and slurs in any point in my life. I did not engage but the threat he made while driving away prompted a visit from the police to his house. (Let's just say they were familiar with him.) So yea so much fun. Can't wait to do it again in November when it will be ratcheted up that much more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebrk85 Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 (edited) 2.3.1 Presidential Appointments: @pman Pres Stephens can name his 1st cabinet. A couple notes below. CIA Director- Can be removed by president and replaced at Appointment time, but at a 25% chance - mil prep, unless the officer is incompetent, easily overwhelmed, or is older than 70]. Does not count toward the limit of five retained officers.] FBI Director- Can be retained and won't count against the limit Chairman of Joint Chiefs Starry's term is NOT up at this time. We need a new Army Chief of Staff and Naval Ops Chief. If promoting a General name a replacement for them. We need two (three if you promote another) new Admirals. Oh and Lauch Faircloth, who was Stephens Kingmaker when he got elected, must be your Key Advisor for this half term.
