Yet another anti-Kerry post on DailyKos
But it is just in the recent diaries section. I hope it doesn't get recommended. http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/3/11/91535/4419

4. Nice pic! I always love the pics.
And thank you! I've been lurking for while. I am so glad to have found a group that recognizes John Kerry as the great man and leader/statesman that he is. Once again, hope lights my days and nights as I see wise and compassonate action even in these dark times.
Now I have to get ready for work (at the local library). Keep up the good fight here!

5. Welcome Aboard !!!
It is so sad how certain supporters of certain candidates spewl so much hate. The OP is as I guessed before I even read it, is not friendly toward JK and never will be. The thing they are missing, if they actually stepped back and looked , is what they are doing now is exactly the spewl they did back in the primaries. It didn't work then and it won't work now. What they fail to respond to is why THEIR candidate lost, it is never that he did a bad job, you only here excuses and the blame game.

From the diary starter:

my heart's with Dean too (none / 1)

Clairty, vision, and articulate policy positions. Mainstream press has him labeled as a "demagogue." Handy word for someone who really believes in what he's saying and argues it forcefully. No Iraq War. National Health Care. 'Nuff said. Wish he'd run or introduce a twin sister

by MmeVoltaire on Sat Mar 11


Yep, 'nuff said.

6. Welcome SuzyC
This thread was due to create a strong reaction on kos (and will probably on DU), but if Kerry is so irrelevant, why do they care?

8. Welcome SuzyC.
You came to directly to the right place. I am always interested to know what's being said, so thanks for the link.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll enjoy DU, and the JK group is definitely the place for a good time.

Enjoy!

10. Welcome, SuzyC, and thanks for pointing the diary out.
I just logged on and see the diary is already in the trash heap of irrelevant Kos diaries. Hopefully, it never made the rec list.

Anyway, great to see a new "face"!

12. Yes, you are right.
And I am so glad that the diary I posted about is long gone (thank you BeachMom for pointing that out). Isn't it ironic though, that like the supporters of Bush who have to completely disregard the facts in order to support him, those who once supported John Kerry but now disparage him also have to completely disregard the facts. They have more in common with the Bushies than they realize! And they think they are so above that sort of thing.

14. Thanks!
I decided to join you because last night I was reading Larry Dossey's new book "The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things" and in the chapter on risk he notes that "...people who experience spontaneous remission from cancer often do so after taking up habits that are totally foreign to their temperament, and which frequently involve considerable physical risk." And that set me to thinking about my life and how incredibly safe I keep myself. So when I saw that blasphemous diary on DailyKos this morning, I thought that the first risk I would take today would be to post about it here. My good, as it turns out. You people are very welcoming. I feel loved. Thank you.

15. Hi Suzy, welcome to the jk group!
Edited on Sat Mar-11-06 11:24 PM by nolies32fouettes
You've definitely found an oasis in the thermal nuclear warfare out there. I'm pretty new here too and people have been extremely kind here too. It was a real 'wake up call' when I saw the gd out there.

16. GD?
Goodwill Division?:think: I need to learn more computer slang. Yes, I feel that if I were to write something "wrong" on Kos, that I might be :nuke: blasted to smithereens, whereas here I would simply be gently corrected.:donut:

17. she means the "discussion forums" on DU
Edited on Sat Mar-11-06 11:43 PM by JI7
outside of this group the Kerry posts often recieve the type of responses you see on Kos. not as bad as Kos, but there are always some.

this group is a good way to get away from all that.

i would also like you welcome you to this group.
