It's humorous to me how some people here think that they can control what others say.

It's humorous to me how some people here think that they can control what others say.
And that what people say here will somehow reflect badly on Obama. Please. Do you think anyone really cares what we say here? It's what the individuals here DO that matters. It's that we volunteer to help Obama win. It's that we share information with each other so that we stay informed. If we doubt the veracity of someone who may or may not have had a backwards "B" carved on her face, it does NOT reflect on OBAMA. If we worry about Biden making some remark about Obama being tested, it does not change the polls. If we criticize the ticket's lack of support for gay marriage, it does not send gay people running to vote for McCain. If we laugh at how dim-witted Sarah Palin is for wearing a VOTE DEM scarf at a rally, or criticize her professionalism for wearing a short skirt, it does not insult undecideds and convince them to vote for McCain. If we applaud someone parking an SUV in front of someone's house with "BIGOTS LIVE HERE" scrawled on it because they have a HUGE banner saying "Yes on Prop 8" hanging from their garage, it does not indicate that we are as bad as they.

Sheesh. Get a fucking grip.

1. I am very concerned about how this post makes DU look.
In fact, it's making me consider voting for Bob Barr.

5. I'll post something if I'm pissed.
But Christ, it's not like I'm expecting David Plouffe to read it.

Recommended, by the way.
