Pardon the interruption...

[YellowDoginthehouse]

To the people here who want to flagellate each other over who is right or wrong, to whine and shake in their boots over perceived mistakes made by one side or the other, to prosecute each other with subjective accounts of grave wrongdoing, can I just ask a favor?

Could you just STFU and keep it to yourselves via email or whatever? Please?

There is too much going on right now for you guys to indulge yourselves in a nervous meltdown. Suck it up and get a grip, people! If you are going to suffer a nervous nellie collapse in the heat of battle, keep it to yourself, please, so that you can avoid infecting others with it! Shrinking violet wilt is contagious! So if you have it, please muzzle yourself for the good of the group.

You guys are making laughing stocks of us all in freeperland, most likely. Those guys are absolutely feral in nature, and one of their claims to fame is that they can smell out shrinking violet wilt like jackals.

There will be plenty of time for all of this after January 20. For right now, we need to stay focused. PLEASE! If you are feeling weak in the knees, keep it to yourselves, please.

1. You're right.

Now would be a good time for a warm mug of shut the fuck up.

6. Exactly. n/t

[AmyCrat]

2. go ahead and post something different then...

and realize that some of us think what has been going on (not the arguments, but what is being argued over) is important because it potentially hurts the whole cause -- all of us.

Democracy is messy. Discussion is good.

[Blue in the face]

3. Kick

Am kicking all non Bev/Keith threads...

[YellowDoginthehouse]

5. Discussion of these issues is not good right now

These flame posts about Bev and Keith are spectacularly ill-timed. If we waste time and energy devouring each other, how the hell are we gonna have energy to focus on the very important, time-sensitive issues in front of us over the next three weeks?

Honestly, it's like working a code in a hospital and wasting part of your golden hour worrying about what shade of lipstick a patient is wearing, instead of intubating them immediately! There's a time and place to worry about the lipstick, but first things always come first!

14. I don't know what you just said, but it sounds good to me.

Medical people. Sheesh. :7

NGU.

4. Well said. Hear, hear! n/t

[s-cubed]

8. TO BEV BASHERS: DON"T YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO,

LIKE HELP SAVE OUR DEMOCRADY?

[ccarter84]

11. glad we're moving past this...

[DubyaSux]

7. I disagree...

If this were a simple debate, I'd agree. But the reason I can't agree is because while we're being sodomized by this administration, people are sending Bev Harris their hard-earned money to be a voice and work for them to make a difference.

But she hasn't shown anything she said she could and when the door to everyone's living room were opened to her, she gave everyone the finger. In fact, she threatened to sue the people helping her.

Although debateable, it's clear people have a reason to doubt whether they have been betting on the right horse.

That's worth plenty of debate.

[YellowDoginthehouse]

9. it is worth debate OVER ON BBV!!!!!

not here. Go email Bev and tell her. Or better yet, call her.

We have people here who are headed to Ohio to protest, people who are actively contributing very valuable analyses to this cause, people involved in all types of constructive efforts. Don't discourage them by spreading the wilt, please.

[YellowDoginthehouse]

10. kick

:kick:

[Hobbes199]

12. Heh.

Kick.

[prairierose]

13. Thank you for that ...

We should not be giving the freepers any ammunition or continuing the stereotype that dems can't get along & fight for something that is important. HELLO this is VERY important, it is the future of our country and the future of our children. Please keep your negative speculations to yourself or pm/email amongst yourselves. There is VERY important work going on here & this kind of crap slows it down and gives the other side ammunition.
