Feel the Hate.

[The Ghost]

This depresses me. These are some of those 'blue-collar Pennsylvania voters.' This makes me wish McCain would pick Condoleeza so these people's heads would spin!

What about Barack Obama? Why couldn’t he beat the Republican nominee?

“The race thing,” interjected her colleague Daniel Kirner, 52, from Tullytown.

“I mean, a president named Barack?” agreed Ms. Vizzini.

“No Muslim is going to be president. No drug addict. If Hillary isn’t the one, everyone I know will vote for John McCain.”

[Mike Nelson]

1. “I mean, a president named Barack?” agreed Ms. Vizzini.

huh...

[40ozDonkey]

7. Well, that explains something.

Never vote for the Muslim when THE ELECTION'S on the line!

AHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHAHAHA! AHAHAHA-<thud>.

[Ka hrnt]

38. LOL!

Nice.

[spotbird]

18. Look what Gorge gave us.

Half the population is below average, they vote too.

[Alexander]

30. I know a guy who asked that exact question. He uses the "n-word" like it's going out of style.

That should tell you something.

[niceypoo]

32. Unfortunately...

...this is what the heartland of America is all about; simpleton, uneducated hicks.

3. For every redneck that feels that way I've met two college educated white folks for Obama.

20. Just because you can find a statement like the one in the OP does not mean that

all Hillary supporters are bigots or approve of that statement. It's probable that there are Obama supporters who won't vote for a woman, regardless of her qualifications, but I wouldn't accuse all Obama supporters of being sexist because of that. Unfortunately racism and sexism still exist in our society, but you can't truthfully make blanket statements about an entire group based on the opinions of a few.

[emilyg]

22. This Clinton supporter says you're dead wrong.

[Cant trust em]

5. I love the "I'm not racist, just everyone I know and associate with" argument.

[The Ghost]

12. Exactly.

Its always the ones who say there may be a problem with one's race, that is not voting for someone because of their race.

[Cant trust em]

16. I think psychologists would call that projection

or maybe that's just a buzzword I picked up from somewhere.

[NC_Nurse]

6. Despicable.

[zalinda]

8. I do feel the hate, from Obama supporters

Do you people EVER say anything positive about anyone other than your candidate? I have never read as much hate coming from a bunch of people as you.

And, when he loses, you will blame everyone else but yourselves.

13. Here is an example of what your talking about - Calling Hillary a whore

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5359371



Only problem is that this shit is being posted by Clinton supporters and then people are angry and blame the Obama supporters.


The anger in here would go down a bit if the Clinton supporters would simply stop posting negative attacks against Hillary.

[Cant trust em]

15. Randi is killing me. I do not like that woman.

I find her to be a little, shall we say, abrasive.

[grantcart]

17. I don't listen to her and i don't get angry and I don't post her stuff here

but what is happening is the most vile stuff in here is posted by Clinton supporters to keep the anger level up.

[Cant trust em]

19. It's a weird cycle

The more we continue to gripe about the things that piss us off, the more it feeds into the meme.

That being said, the radio station I listen to in the morning has Ed Schultz on followed by Ms. Rhodes. I usually listen to Ed and then start listening to music.

[emilyg]

28. Why did you feel you had to post that?

[The Ghost]

14. You start

Say something truly positive about Obama.

[zalinda]

41. He speaks well n/t

[The Ghost]

42. and Hillary

was a FANTASTIC First Lady, and is a GREAT Senator. :)

[grantcart]

21. just curious did you go to the post by the Clinton supporter that is

spreading the hate and tell her to stop?

I wish you would

[sniffa]

27. Which thread is that?

And yes, I know I'll have to log out to read it.

[grantcart]

29. not if you open two windows lol

Clinton supporters spread vile anti Clinton crap in one thread and then complain about it in another thread


http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5359371

[sniffa]

31. Ah, um, thanks?

:puke:

So many ignores on that thread. :crazy:

[zalinda]

43. Who is it? I have no idea.

Unless it is a few people that I know for certain are supporters of a candidate, I have no idea who supports whom. I don't visit Clinton's or Obama's forums. I read the title of the thread on the front page or the latest page, and I may or may not go in to read it. But, by just reading the thread titles, I can tell that Clinton hate is alive and well at DU, as is Obama love. None of it seems to be logical, and if it was the other way around, I would find it just as illogical. I have come to thoroughly dislike Obama and have had to defend Clinton, who I only like just a little better. It is the clash of the titan egos, as far as I'm concerned. Neither of them is right person to take over the job.

But, I guess it doesn't matter anyway. Whoever gets the Presidency will only be a one term lack luster President. Nothing will change on how DC works, or even how the media is owned, so nothing will change in the life of about 90% of the population of this country.

[emilyg]

23. Amen.

[sniffa]

26. .

:nopity:

Sorry the smilie is not smaller.

[Raine]

33. YES some of us do say positive things

about others besides Obama. If YOU would focus on something besides your own negativity and playing victim you would see that. :-(

[Zhade]

37. Yeah, it's real hateful to point out clinton's proven pathological lying.

:eyes:

[azmouse]

9. It must suck to be that woman.

I wish I could even feel sorry for a bigot like but I can't. I wish she would just go away.

[grantcart]

10. from the article

She frequently says, in an implicit contrast with Mr. Obama’s cosmopolitan heritage, “My father was from Scranton.”

[StClone]

11. It's everywhere

Here in Wisconsin our Supreme Court just went leaning Right-wing Wacky when the successful incumbent was smeared mercilessly by outside money and a slack jaw anti-Left psycho-borg installed. It didn't help the incumbent was black as I heard some middle-aged lady quip in the voting line "not only that if Obama wins, that's too many of that kind." Bigotry, ignorance, racism. Jesus help us!

[Yael]

24. I apologize on behalf of the state of Pennsylvania

not my home of choice, but alas, here I be.

Sorry, folks. :(

[sniffa]

25. I thought this came from another forum

on DU.

[jaysunb]

34. low information voters ?

:shrug:

[KoKo]

35. Are you a "SICKO?" Who would do a post saying: "Feel the Hate?"

I hope you feel better in the coming days than you do now. :eyes: ayyyyyyyyy...Feel the Hate? Who wants to "Feel Hate"........Sheesh......Ugh...Give me a BREAK!

[Arugula Latte]

36. self-delete

quoth the raven: nevermind

[Symarip]

39. Being from California it never ceases to amaze me

When I'm sitting in a bar somewhere in Virginia where I live now and I hear the crazy shit that comes out of people's mouth. Just the other night, I had to assure my barstool neighbor that Barrack was not a Muslim and that he was born in the United States. He didn't want to believe me until I pointed out that it would be impossible for him to run for president if he was a foreign national. Surprisingly, the mental giant to my right was a Rush fan.

Le sigh...

[RememberWellstone]

40. This is from democrats too.

Imagine how the millions of rethugs frothing at the mouth during the GE? It will only get worse and the first casualty of the GE will be truth.

[krkaufman]

44. "Mr. Obama’s cosmopolitan heritage" ... wtf?

His dad was from Kenya and his mom from Kansas, and he grew up w/ his grandparents in Hawaii. Right? Exactly what is cosmopolitan about that?

[tekisui]

45. I simply do not believe that racists have a voting majority.
