Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 09:52 AM by xultar
Someone, a campaign, a supporter does something you don't like and you come here and post and say the rudest shit because they deserve it? Wow!

So you, being all supreme being, come to DU to dish out what they deserve. Yeah You've decided that they deserve dishes of shit with their sour grapes. And, they are gonna take their medicine, goddammit, they are gonna suffa @ your hands and you're gonna watch and get off on their cries of pain and madness.

Is that what all this shit flinging is about? You feel that your tiny silly little post here on DU is going to some how give whomever you don't like what they deserve? You gonna :spank: them? Make them cry? Teach them a lesson?

:rofl:

Y'all need to step back from the pc/mac/Web-enabled phone and into the goddamned light people.

Your posts don't do anything but fuck up the relationships you built here. So if it is your goal to punish, hurt, humiliate, dish out what you think your fellow posters deserve then go ahead.

But really, your posts don't mean shit. No one reads DU. Why do you think Elizabeth Edwards stopped posting here? Why do you think Keith Olberman is on Daily Kos, because DU is a cesspool of shit right now. So the only thing you are hurting is what DU used to be and your fellow posters. The Edwards, Clinton, and Obama campaigns don't even know what you are dishing out on their behalf or to punish them. DU isn't even on their radar, if they do read it they are laughing @ all your silly asses right now.

2. DU is a fucking joke right now...I can't even look at the latest page with all
of its bullshit.

I come here for information I cannot get elsewhere but I find I am spending less and less time at DU.

K and R!

4. Either that, or they feel that our discourse just isn't stupid enough.
Maybe both.

5. This place has been in a downward spiral for several weeks now -
I hope it's not permanently tainted. I've got several ideas as to how things could be dealt with around here, but then again, it's not my site, so those decisions are still up to Skinner & company.

RECOMMENDED.

7. I agree with you xultar
I don't think we're all unreasonable people here and many of us have a long history here :pals:

Let's hope we can pull together and be worthy of reading by non-regulars again at some point.

:hi:

9. There are only two ways the Republicans could hope to win the White House
or more aptly make it seem plausible when the voting numbers flip again

1-Apathy. Either create themselves a rainy day so that (as we are told) only the ever so determined and dedicated Republicans will go to the polls or muddy up the waters to get the "they are all the same" meme going making it about personalities (always one of the top two influences on Republican voting decision making)

2-A divided house. The media pits the Dems against themselves either pissing off half of our party into not voting (see numbers flipping above) or souring everyone on the whole process (see #1).

BTW- We are falling for #2 hook line and sinker.

14. I hear what you're saying, but I come here because it's NOT like Kos
Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 11:17 AM by ResetButton
There is a very undemocratic forced-conformity there. They often have quality posts (and posters), but DU is raw, real, and beautiful. I'd miss the shit out this raucous democratic experiment if it turned into Kos.

22. Ugh, it's so true
This board is full of people who are getting paid by Clinton's paid staff to spill garbage and/or people who have some serious mental problems. Either way, it's absurd. I really need to stop wasting my time posting here. DailyKos is much better.

23. yep, it's always been about self-importance
the bane, perhaps the doom of human existence.

just try convincing someone of the miniscule value in the energy wastefully expended in proving what their ego has convinced themselves is of the utmost importance.

(for grins, try on one's self).
