1. I would say "Amen" but I am an Atheist so I will just say,

THANK YOU!

[sprinkleeninow]

10. Amen only means "Let it be so".

Whoever, whatever, in the forces of the universe, hears and answers your plea. 😌

[BigmanPigman]

11. Amen to me means "right on, you said it, how true".

[sprinkleeninow]

15. Yeah, right on! 👍

[ffr]

2. Yep. Sticking to keeping the snowflake snowball dragnet going from here on out

The only story I'm seeing will be

RUSSIA
RUSSIA
RUSSIA

Keepin' it simple.

16. The tender, delicate snoflakes.

"For counseling call 1-800-BOO-HOO-FRICK-HOO."

[iluvtennis]

17. Indeed. We need to keep our eyes on the prize......Russian collusion to steal the election

[Squinch]

7. Yes, stay woke everyone.

they're here too. We didn't hit the skids for nothing last November.

[defacto7]

8. Hear hear!

[ffr]

9. At times like these, get militant folks. Upvote the Russia stories and ignore the others

Go through and get the Russia, Mueller, Indictments, etc., etc., etc., threads up where they can be seen. All these fluff Reality Show pieces, let them sink.

Thanks Malaise.

[sprinkleeninow]

12. Great advice and cheerleading! Thanx.👍

14. yea..I've managed to bite my tongue more than once today

I was ready to blast then remembered their game plan AGAIN

[sprinkleeninow]

18. They set my teeth on edge bigtime.

Feel like Ima gonna blow a fuse.
Then, I pull back and say calmly, be smart and then do smart.
Resist letting these pernicious ones damage me.

[nini]

20. I'm not known for biting my tongue either LOL

But I try.

I have typed out a scathing response then erased it.. sometimes just typing it out helps

[sprinkleeninow]

24. I type out a caustic aligning response and then something tells me, don't post that.

You correct saying it helps just getting it out of your system.

Those people make me 😬😨😠😖😵😫🤤.

[FakeNoose]

21. Malaise tell us how to recognize a bot

Are they posting on here?

Should we put them on full ignore?

[bluestarone]

22. if we suceed to

channel all our frustrations toward the Repubs, WE'LL KICK THERE ASS IN 2018

[Chakaconcarne]

23. Hey rethugs and bots

Fuck you!!!!!!!!

[blue-wave]

25. The rats are

being forced back into a corner more every day. They will come at us with foaming rabid mouths. Heck, we all know they have done it in the past. Stay alert everyone and be ready for the ass hats to throw everything they have, including the kitchen sink.

[Lint Head]

26. I have noticed this BIGLY..

[il_lilac]

27. Trump's enemy

is my friend. Period.

[Honeycombe8]

28. As someone recommended, maybe a separate folder for things like that.

I don't think it's healthy to totally ignore something that is front page news and that a potential candidate is talking about. It's a matter of the tone of the threads, related to something in the news, and just the one thread on that.

I'm on neither side, BTW. This is between progressives and establishment. I'm not really either. But regardless which end I'm on, I would still want to hear factual statements or in-the-news references. This wasn't a small thing, I gather. It was and is in the news, and a lawsuit was filed over it.

But no one wants to see a "progressives vs the establishment" fight or split. That's not helpful for future elections. It's great the Republicans have that. We don't want the same thing.

[emulatorloo]

31. Fever-pitched book promotion by a political operative is not exactly "front page news"

Actually most things published by Politico rarely qualify as front page news. The site is not useless but they are Republican funded. They are all too happy to distract and stir the pot. I take everything I read there with a boulder of salt.

I am excited that Donna is reinventing herself so as to be more competitive in the job market. It's a tough field and I wish her well. She backed a losing candidate and it is hard to get work after that. It's not breaking news though.

[Honeycombe8]

34. It's all over the place. I saw it on CNN. Warren's satements were there, too.

Her statements were unnecessarily inflammatory, IMO. She could've made the same comment, only phrased more delicately.

But I do think refusing to post things that are front page news items and affect the Dems or Repubs isn't the way to go. But all these posts with a rude tone (esp by some newbies) is inappropriate. It's a fine line.

[emulatorloo]

36. One poster said "The Hill" misrepresented what Warren said, and I don't find that hard to believe

That's another site that plays fast and loose w Democrats. The poster said The Hill's spin did not at all match the interview with Warren he saw

Yeah agree a fine line. I really enjoyed reading Brazile's excerpt.

[Honeycombe8]

38. Afraid not. She's on video.

http://www.cnn.com/2017/11/02/politics/elizabeth-warren-democratic-party/index.html

"The nomination was rigged."

"We've got to hold the party accountable."

I know what she means, and hearing her say it is better than READING it...it sounds more proactive and positive. Still, I wish she wouldn't have phrased things the way she did.

[pangaia]

29. Am I so dumb? I can not tell who/what is a bot or troll here...

[emulatorloo]

33. Plenty of articles on the net about how to identify trolls or bots

Especially since revelations about twitter and Facebook.

[denbot]

30. Kick

[stonecutter357]

32. K&R

[SergeStorms]

35. I hear 'ya.

I will not engage anyone in rhetoric detrimental to the Democratic Party.

[Hekate]

37. I don't want to Ignore them. I want to get them PPR'd.

Nuff said.
