Hey!!!!! Hey, DU, WTF is going on??? |
|
The top post on the Greatest page with over 100 rec's is about a Democrat not voting for a Dem candidate???? I really don't understand this. Someone explain to me how this gets 100 rec's on a DEMOCRATIC website?

I asked the question again later in the thread. Yeah, it makes no sense to allow non-donors to recommend post. That's asking for trouble.

6. It's the Clinton Republicans |

Who've realized that if they can't have a woman, and Obama won't have a sex change then they'll vote for more wars.

your form 1243B? If you didn't you don't get your pony. The deadline was yesterday, but you can download extension form 5899. Fill that out, and then mail that and your left arm, first born, and birth certificate.
Your pony should arrive in 6-8 weeks.

Have not materialized a pony yet. I knew I should have never bought into the hype.
Thanks for the love though ;-)

26. Damn straight. I'm so friggin' sick of the Repuke-in-sheep-clothing HillBot supporters. Begone! |
|
It's high time that DU return to equilibrium...meaning that Hillary is not popular by any means because of her longstanding problems being a pro-corporatist, DINO/DLC, syncophant.

8. some of them have multiple accounts they use to rec those threads |
|
anytime you see one of those "spite threads", it will jump up to about 15 recs, faster than any other thread on DU. And there will only be a 1/3rd, if that many, Clinton supporters actually posting.
Amazing what some people will do on internet forums.

13. Again, I wonder if some non-donors could tell us... |
|
Can non-donors recommend a post? I wouldn't be surprised if those recommends are legit.

18. Is that the "Look what you did, Obama Supporters" post? |
|
I was shocked that a post that champions the concept of confusing anonymous website poster's with reality was so popular.
I mean, the OP, quite unaware of how CRAZY it sounds, came right out and said that he/she/it got SO UPSET over the posts here that he/she/it now can't even LISTEN to Obama speak (whereas before there were no negative feelings).
Craziest fucking thing I ever saw.
100 recs. Wow.

Someone claiming to be a "Lifelong yellow dog Democrat" that has always voted Democrat, said that because posters here were too mean, they wouldn't be voting for him in the GE. Over 118 rec's last time I checked.

32. whenever some heretofore unseen phenomenom takes place.... |
|
expect some sort of voodoo hoodoo hocus pocus bullshit to be behind it....
like 120+ recs shows anything except somebody who needs to get a little sunlight, tell their mother they 'aren't doing anything in here', and is sadly mistaken about the effect they are having a thousands of unknown people doing nothing more than spending time on the same f***ing website...
120+ recs is equal to that 5'10" green-eyed, red-haired Venus that wants to run off with me after I send her a shitload of cash over Paypal....
come to think of it...I think I'll send the $$$$....
