(11,709 posts)You might get one or two posters who will play into your hands and allow you to post a dozen or so threads complaining that 'the leftists' are hypocrites, but you'll get nowhere near the level of base hatred that generally comes from the Cheney Democrats.

(7,099 posts)probably wouldn't understand this, but the rest of us are able to:
1. Disagree with someone without putting them "under a bus."
2. Not feel the need to make excuses when someone we generally like does something we disagree with.
3. Not twist every fucking thing imaginable into a grenade to use on DU to further divide people.
4. Not act like politics is an intra-party team sport.
5. Not start passive aggressive threads trying to mock other DUers when our "team" scores a point or their "team" fumbles.

(114,904 posts)who knows, you may get jury members who are trying to get me kicked off DU. There are quite a few of them.
And sorry, hon, but the little trick of posting a link to my transparency page, bothers me not at all.
xxx oooo

I'm sure, in your mind, that all makes sense.

If for any other reason than to make the quick kill so we can get back to rebuilding sooner.
Throwing Sanders, Warren, and FDR under the bus on the same day.
Honestly don't think I belong to this party anymore.
I look forward to working diligently against you.

(2,667 posts)I have heard many Senators voice the opinion that barring the most extreme of circumstance that the President should get his pick for those who work directly for him. Of course the compliment to this is that then the President must take responsibility for the actions of those he picks. Thus it is both a prerogative of Office and a burden upon the Presidency, and one to be lightly challenged by a member of the Senate.

But then, this IS Obama we're talking about.

(2,667 posts)but like you said, this is Obama we are talking about. The only thing that I'm sure of is if we had voted Hillary in it would be worse. Jesus, what has happened to my Party?

(129,096 posts)I hate people like Baucus with a passion and thank god he is going. I accept Bernie as the conscious of the party and really like Warren. The point being that the ridiculous "all or nothing" attacks by some on DU are purposely divisive, particularly when coupled with artificial litmus tests.
