The next time someone here says we are "mean" to the Bush daughters, remind 'em of the FReepers.

[Faygo Kid]

Never, ever has DU been as cruel to the Bush daughters as the FReepers have been to Chelsea, and today just puts an exclamation point on that FACT. Here's one of 'em, not nearly the worst:

There's some nasty stuff going back and forth here at any given time, but this just shows we are pikers compared to the FReeper fascists, and their mentor who has made them what they are today, the Walking Pilodinal Cyst and King of the Chickenhawks:

1. Well....just because the Freepers are like that towards Chelsea, doesn't mean that

we have to exhibit the same behavior towards the Bush twins.

In fact, it's precisely because of how Chelsea has been treated by the right, that we should want to set an example and say "we are above this."

[Faygo Kid]

4. My point is that we have never stooped to the "same behavior"

We've taken shots, all right, but if you visit the link, you will see what I mean.

Extraordinary. Mean-spirited doesn't even begin to describe it. Pathological fails to come close. Dittohead approaches it, but even that doesn't begin to describe it.

Haven't seen anything like since Ann the Man wrote about the 9/11 widows "enjoying" their husbands' deaths. Same kind of hatred.

2. Ridiculous post, faygokid.

As if quoting someone else makes it "all right" for an intelligent person to make scummy remarks.

If you take your cues on cruelty from scum like Freepers, you've sunk too low. The comments on DU should stand (or not stand) for themselves, and I think some of the comments here on the president's daughters are horrible.

[Faygo Kid]

5. Well, the Redskins suck, too.

Guess I better clear my posts with you from now on, robcon.

Not likely.

[robcon]

6. Sorry, if you had the impression that no one would respond to your idiocy, faygokid.

If you thought no one would react to your attempt to lower the threshold of acceptable remarks on DU, you were mistaken. I don't want you to "clear your remarks" with me, but don't expect your stupidity to go unchallenged. Maybe you should post on Freeperland as well as on DU, since you seem to have an affinity for their gutter attacks.

[Faygo Kid]

12. Tell me where I said we should respond in kind. Go ahead, post it.

Be sure to read your heartfelt personal message from me. You pompous twit.

Learn to read, you dunderhead.

[robcon]

14. Excusing awful remarks on DU, because Freepers are worse, is illogical

and stupid. You suggested it was ok to post that way because Freepers are worse.

Trapped by your own words.

[CatWoman]

19. I must admit

you guys are killing me with this back and forth. :rofl:

and the Redskins do suck -- it hurts me to admit that, as I'm their biggest fan.

[Toots]

22. I guess it is preferable to just disrespect DUers than political pundits

And yes the Bush* twins took on that role during the last election. They are not just innocent children..

[pintobean]

10. He's just a kid.

Gee Mom, Billy did it too....and worser.

[Gemini Cat]

20. I think what your president is doing to the world

and this country is bloody well awful and horrible. Much worse than any comments made on this board about Jenna and not-jenna.

However, play nice-nice all you like.

[MonkeyFunk]

3. Well

if they were wrong to do so, then wouldn't it be wrong for us to do it back?

[patrice]

7. the family is pretty much off limits for this DUer.

except for the extent to which they involve themselves in my concerns

[Kajsa]

8. Patrice, I feel the same way.

Democrats aren't Freepers.

We sure as hell shouldn't act like them.

[patrice]

9. That kind of thing is dis-empowering. Focusing on Issues is empowering.

I don't like them either, or at least what I know of them. I feel plenty of anger and resentment for what is happening to this land. But, what's more important, counting coup and revenge? or solutions?

Eyes on the prize!

[Kajsa]

11. You got that right!

I like to focus on solutions.

:D :hi:

[silverojo]

15. And that's exactly why we lose so much

The Bush twins' behavior is very much deserving of ridicule.

[Kajsa]

21. I disagree.

Electronic voting machines, election fraud and an insane
decision by the Supreme Court in 2000 are the main reasons
we lose elections.

Jenna's work for UNICEF is nothing to ridicule.

My beef is with their father.

[Captain Hilts]

13. Doesn't make it right. nt

[lynne]

16. Two Wrongs Don't Make A "Right" -

- is what my mother always told me and I find her to be a very wise woman. I would prefer NOT to bring myself down to their level!

[galileo3000]

17. I won't bash the children of politicians

No matter whether they love their parents or angry with them. Being a politician is not something I feel I would be any good at doing. Anyone who has the courage to put themselves under our modern day microscopes at least has my respect whether I agree with them or not. I believe Ad hominem arguments do more damage to the attacker (in my eyes) than in the target. Even if they are very persuasive and true, such tactics denigrate the caster (at least in my eyes).

[gratuitous]

18. The worst lie they could ever make up about Chelsea

Wouldn't hold a candle to merely telling the truth about Bush's demon spawn. So we don't have to go down that road at all.
