Manufacturing controversy to attack Obama? Some DUers make a big deal out Obama's acknowledgement
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 01:58 PM by wndycty
of John Lewis's endorsement of Clinton? WTF

Are they offended that Obama is not sitting down, not shutting up? Are they upset that he didn't get the memo that Hillary has already won the nomination?

Is it that on the very day that Clinton got an impressive endorsement by an extremely respected Black Congressman, John Lewis of Georgia, Obama expressed his admiration of Lewis and acknowledged the long relationship between him and President Clinton?

I don't know. As I have repeated time and time again, I LOVE HILLARY AND IF she gets the nomination I can enthusiastically support her, but as long as I have a choice I'm passionate about seeing Obama be our nominee and next president.

Hillary has a ton supporters on here who I identify with and respect. BUT UNFORTUNATELY THERE IS A VOCAL MINORITY OF HILLARY SUPPORTERS who seek to discourage, demoralize and mock the supporters of other candidates.

The funniest thing is the harder they try to discourage, demoralize and mock, the more emboldened and determined many of us become in our support of our respective candidates.

Today's latest crock o'shit is the manufactured outrage over Obama's response to the Lewis endorsement of Clinton. I wonder if Lewis is as outraged. I'm sure that if he isn't there are those on DU who will tell him he should be.

1. OMG! This is so great! You Hils and Barrie people could turn a fart in a
wind tunnel into a 'gas attack on a major metropolitan subway'. I cannot believe the way you people go at it. All day. Every day.

THIS IS GREAT! Keep it up. It's the best entertainment we've got here on DU.

4. lol, it was a backhanded compliment alright
It was meant to sting.

Everyone around here needs to grow up. A little barb should be the worst your candidate ever faces.

:D

FYI, every candidate has obnoxious supporters here and the more the atmosphere turns hostile, the more hostile ALL of you get.

5. Why am I not surprised?
Methinks that regardless of Obama's response the DU Hillary team was ready to criticize him. Its getting old, very old.

9. Didn't I just read another thread up the page
you started on this exact topic? That one was a poll, of course.

Isn't one enough?

As someone who supports neither, I hope their campaigns eat each other into oblivion.
