Who put the hippo in hypocrisy? . . . Please come CAPTION RNC Chair Reince Priebus!!!!



Reince ("When I think of my life I get very, very tired&quot Priebus is saying: "Listen, Sean, when the lame-stream media plans to air so-called documentaries on Hillary new year, they clearly demonstrate, once again, their duplicitous, almost criminal, double standard. . . . How would the Democrats like it if there was a conservative channel which only promoted Republican candidates???? . . . These people are unbelievable!!!"

to channel our subjects, making them say what they're really thinking, or what they would like to say if they thought they could get away with it. Or sometimes, like here, the CAPTION simply shows the hypocrisy of the RNC complaining about a double standard on a station which lives and breathes double standard.

So no, he really didn't say that, but in effect that's exactly what he said. Dig?

And believe it too.
There have been 'Caption This', where the OP had an silly/stupid/asinine, real, actual quoit of what the guy said. It is hard to tell now-a-days.

I always try to channel the speech patterns and vocal tics of the subject. Part of the joke with these idiots is to show how completely natural their delusive network is.
