At 12:15 p.m., the Score: Cult 4; Adult, 0 (or, on joining the Cult of the Adult)
Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 12:21 PM by CorpGovActivist
A quick scan of the front page of GDP threads shows 4 instance of the word "cult" (or variation thereof) in a thread title.

Not a single instance of the word adult.

Honk if you're part of the Cult of the Adult: meaning, you can see clearly how this childish countermeme by the straw-clutching Clinton campaign reeks of "you're rubber, I'm glue*" desperation.

- Dave

* (Yes, yes, I know. The reversal is on purpose. It's accurate, as stated, when applied to the end result for the Clinton campaign.)

5. Dave, did you check the cult threads. Some were started by Obama supporters being sarcastic.

6. Has anyone else noticed that...
The accusations of Obama supporters being in a "cult", has itself taken on a cult-like mentality? Full of over-exaggerations and group-think?

It's quite fascinating.
