And Another Thing !!! - The Next Time I Hear That We Are Using Rightwing Talking Points

To attack another Democrat on a Democratic Board...well boy howdy, I will use all sorts of emoticons that show anger and lots and lots of exclamation points!!!!



Thoughtful disagreement is one thing. To attack with such venom and hatred as is prevalent on this board is over-the-top and FR like. It makes me wonder if we have been inundated with junior high students on assignment.

And to profess that you will not support a democratic candidate no matter what, I just shake my emoticon head and wonder if that is part of the problem with America today--and why you are on DU.

I surf these threads judiciously because those who won't vote democratic in November want to doom us to a republican president who will make W look wise and benevolent, that's how bad their field of candidates is.

Stop using RW talking points! When you do, I can't tell if you're trolls or not! As a side note and I've said this before, RW talking points are ALWAYS wrong (usually lies).

As I understand it, fast track means that Obama will be the one to negotiate the terms, rather than the Legislature. To me, that sounds like a good thing--no amendments attaching radical RW ideas to the agreement; no stalling in the house for political gain.

I trust Obama to make good decisions (and I cannot say that about Bush, et. al) if he is the negotiator. I may be wrong on the process of fast track, versus legislature.

The negotiating is done and the voting happens, no changes, no line item veto, no nothing.

Criticism is good and healthy but posting rw links should be verboten.
