So, did you enjoy the "Why is Dean so controversial here?" thread
Edited on Mon Nov-22-04 07:42 PM by a new day
I guess its tougher to take the abandonment when you're a true believer and get cut loose. They're still in the denial and anger stages of grief.

1. Don't say a word about that thread.
I tried to stand up but I give up. They are organizing again and coming here. The mods will have to do something. I give up.

3. Sorry I was at work....
Remember the slogan from Gandhi that was on the wall at Dean Headquarters:

First, they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, THEN YOU WIN!

Screw them and their personal attacks. I alerted on two of those posters. I think your right, they are DLC.

11. I just saw that thread, madflor, and you did some yeoman work.
You have lots of courage wading into a nest of vipers. And the same ones all the time, too.

4. Um, considering the atmosphere around here of late,
I can't rule out the possibility that the OP was in fact serious in asking the question.

5. Considering the number of attacks today...consider it an organized thing.
Oh, and I replied to that Obama was right to say get over it. I will also say that Clinton was right to say get over it, and we need to pull off those doing the recounts.

Now we just have to tell Randi Rhodes she was wrong to question Obama as well.

I give up. I lost my damn vote in 2000, and now I am supposed to shut up.

6. Hell, I heard Randi Rhodes diss Dean on her program more
than once. This was before AAR came to Colorado--I was listening to it via the Net.

8. Not sure what you are saying.
Randi was upset when Obama said we need to get over the election. She was very upset.

Janx, I apologized to the whole thread for questioning our party leaders. Ok? I did it three times now.

This was not about Dean, by the way.

12. Yes, I heard her do it more than once. But when Dr. Dean was on her show,
she was so sweet to him, almost giggly. Either he charmed her bigtime, or she's full of crap.

14. It's ok to criticize Dean, but no Obama.
Randi was upset with him, as I was. But I won't question anymore. I will go with what our leaders say. Randi should not have questioned Obama.

She's good at what she does, though.

Poll question: Chances Kerry Will Be President On or After January 6

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=203&topic_id=69094&mesg_id=69094&page=

They couldn't stand that so many are anwering "no way." They can't stand any opposing idea.

I'd take it a little less seriously. There are some seriously delusional posters around here.

Go answer this poll: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=2062873

Mea culpa. I wasn't around DU today at all. Mondays are my killer teaching days (two classes back-back at one campus and two at another). So I have no idea what happened today.

Listen, to cheer you up, I'm going to send you some mail about a possibility that turned me into an insomniac last night. Watch for it! It could be speculation on my part, but I don't think so.

And to any other DFA junkie who would like this PM, let me know!

20. We don't have to seize it; we only have to live in it--
the free and the brave.

22. Well Janx
I have kids in their teens and I fear a draft due to the warmongers in power. Call me cynical, in this day and age I consider it realistic, I feel we need to do more than just live here.

Cheers--
Julie
