I just sent another $100 to Dean thanks to you.
Thanks especially you Dean opponents who have never had an unkind word to say about George W Bush. And thanks you Dean opponents who never have a kind word to say about your own candidates, assuming you even have one.

Karl Rove thanks you too, but for different reasons.

1. I just sent a second contribution today ($50)
I'm sending my money where it will be used the most effectively to oust ThugCo: Dean For America. The campaign needs our help to battle back the massive negative onslaught that is coming.

2. I'll be dropping off some $$
at the local house party -- I'm not able to attend due to prior commitments (closing the deal on selling my car tonight)

3. Calm down, Sparky
While I share your anger, and your support for Dean, you are not going to win any converts by posting the same kind of stuff that pissed you off in the first place.

Other DUers take heed. Talk up your candidate, talk down the Shrub, but never attack a fellow DUer. We cannot afford to fail in November. Dean is NOT the next McGovern. Lieberman will be if you aren't careful. Dean and Gephardt are the only candidates that scare Karl Rove, which is exactly why all his conservative pundit shills are trying to spook you with the Dean=McGovern BS. Check your sources. No responsible journalist has made this connection.

4. hmmmm...
what a coincidence.

I'm donating to the Clark campaign Thanks especially to you Clark opponents who have never had an unkind word to say about George W Bush. And thanks you Clark opponents who never have a kind word to say about your own candidates, assuming you even have one.

11. Well, then you aren't the type I'm talking about.
And as for you two who are contributing to Clark, go for it. If I've convinced you to put your money where your mouth is, then go do it. At least the time it takes you to do it will keep you from posting one Dean bashing thread and alienating your fellow DU'ers.

17. You didn't convince me of anything.
Don't flatter yourself. You're the one who started this Clark supporter bashing thread, not me. Hey, I use to be a Dean supporter! I WAS still going to vote for and support him until your Dean comrades started bashing Clark. What goes around, comes around. Just remember that. Think twice the next time you want to start a thread that bashes Clark supporters or ANY supporters of ANY candidate.

What? We're expected to just sit here and take all the bashing? I don't think so. Not anymore. There's been about 100 too many bash Clark/Clark supporters threads.

7. Actually, I've had plenty of unkind things to say
about GWB. Starting with the 2000 election. And continuing on a regular basis ever since.

And I have plenty of great things to say about my candidate. I've done so for about 11 months here on DU. And elsewhere as well.

Here are some great things about my candidate:

He walks the walk. His words are not empty; he acts on them. And his actions are consistent with what he says.

He has been the most active opponenet of GWB since 2000. He has never backed down. He has never compromised us. He is the champion of the people.

He has a lifetime of succeeding on a limited budget; his campaign is about issues, not about endorsements, polls, or money. Ask Ted Koppel.

He will be serving the interests of Americans and of democratic values like peace, and like social and economic justice, in 2005 regardless of who wins the nomination or the presidency. He is not going away.

And I oppose Dean. I have not always opposed him. I started out with Dean at the top of my list. As I pored over his record and his platform, I found more and more things that just didn't match, so I moved on. I still didn't oppose him. I didn't oppose him until he lied.

9. I'm going to give to Dean
later today. I am thinking of doubling my usual$100 donation.
I would love to see him add another bat.

10. That's great!
I like to see all of the democratic candidates raising money. That speaks well for the activism within the party.



Wes Clark. He will make an extraordinary American President.

13. Hey...
...I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you. Sometimes I'm guilty myself of "being harsh", but I like that in everything I've seen from you, you stay pretty positive. Takes supporters like you to make supporters of other candidates feel more comfortable if and when the issue of "transferrance" becomes relevant ;)

16. I appreciate your comments.
I try to stay mostly positive because I'm pro-Dem. I'd like to see Wesley Clark win the nomination but I'm not going to provide anyone ammunition against whomever is our worthy nominee. Peace.

14. I just sent some more $$ to Kucinich....
the candidate with the positive campaign, EXCEPT against Bush.

I really dislike candidate bashing. My candidate doesn't bash others, just tells the truth.(a la Truman.)We have generally GREAT candidates, and all of them are head and shoulders above Bush. So I am proud to be able to contribute my little bit to the process.

15. Big DK party/fundraiser tonight in St. Paul, MN...
check it out at www.minnesotaforkucinich.com for details...

I'm getting ready to head over there soon-- I'm providing the sound system and some entertainment this evening. I know most DK supporters are still pretty broke right now (myself included), but we can hopefully scrape together a few hundred for the last quarter.

But it ain't always about the MONEY, though, either. Gore beat Bush and spent $60,000,000 LESS than Bush did. WE can do the same, as long as we don't fall into playing THEIR game by their rules.

Peace!

19. I'll make my last December donation tomorrow
I've never waited 'till the last minute to make a bat contribution before, but I think I'll help with the final push tomorrow night.

After the amount that was donated today and yesterday, I think it's going to be safe to say that my contribution will be past the goal. I can only imagine how much money the house parties are going to pull in.

so are you $1000 poorer? lol


I mean really this has got to be the most vapid counter-argument in the history of discourse: "Everytime you say something I don't like, I will contribute to a cause you are opposed to, so you better shut up."
