I propose a 36 hour truce

[Perky]

Monday Noon until Tuesday Midnight

We all need a mental break from our ad nauseum back and forth which likely only hardens position and I think everyone is a bit too angry,


Yes it is an incredibly important election, but so are our families. The Campaigns are taking a short break. So should we.

1. No! Separation of Church and DU.

Establishing Christmas as a time of peace, I will not recognize Christmas!

[LoZoccolo]

2. This is biased in favor people who celebrate Christmas.

Did you take a break for Hanukkah?

Did you take a break for Kwanzaa?

[demnan]

3. I say no

We'll have plenty of time to sing Kumbiya after the primaries and sometimes I find relief here from fighting with my family!

[babylonsister]

15. Ha! Hatfields or McCoys?

:evilgrin:

[Quixote1818]

4. Good luck with that.

:beer:

[acmavm]

5. Well I for one thought that was a lovely suggestion. But you JUST KNOW

it ain't gonna happen.

[greguganus]

6. Festivus for the rest of us! n/t

[Snotcicles]

9. Get the pole.

Not the poll.

[catnhatnh]

11. I don't know about the "feats of strength"....

...but I'll guarantee the "airing of grievances"...

[BOSSHOG]

7. Incredible how such a headline can be so contentious

I'm so glad my primary is irrelevant and I have stayed on the periphery of the primary pileons.

What I want for Christmas - UNITY BY EVERYBODY HERE AFTER HE HAVE A NOMINEE, REGARDLESS OF WHOM THAT MIGHT BE.

[RaleighNCDUer]

8. I suggest that if you want a break

don't log on.

That's what I expect I'll be doing.

[Enrique]

10. if i stop attacking my enemy candidate, he'll win!

AND THE WORLD WILL END!

[Buzz Clik]

12. Your best bet is to avoid this place during that period, or only hang out on apolitical forums.

[TwilightZone]

13. To some, confrontation is only reason they're here.

To ask them to take a break would be asking them to give up their favorite activity.

[davidwparker]

14. Sounds like you need to sign off for a while. That's what I do.

[goodgd_yall]

16. Go ahead if you want, but

not everyone does the "family thing" on Christmas, and some who do, need the break. Imagine the miserable people who have to spend time with their Republican relatives. The kind thing to do is keep the discussion going; they need some fellowship with fellow Democrats.
