Poll question: What do you make of IgnoreListGate?

1. The Shillbot fake outrage will never end.
When will they make good on their promise to boycott DU? I'm waiting.

2. I think 'gate' as suffix for every minor political flap needs to go the fuck away already
and should have done 20 years ago.

9. It is a sad commentary on our culture
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 08:48 PM by Teaser
that we have developed a suffix specifically for political scandals.

What does that say about us?


btw....Warren Ellis rulez.

14. Now, now...Bush has made sense on many an occasion.
Why, when he said he would put food on my family. I knew what he meant. It's hard to put food on my family. They keep moving around and stuff.
When he talked of the man and the fish co-existing...well, I knew exactly what he was talking about. Every day is a battle for survival against my fishy oppressors.
For that matter, when Bush said 'fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice...won't get fooled again.'
There was no question in my mind: President Bush is a fellow fan of the Who.

I didn't make it...

19. They bashed me over the head because I back Obama and labeled me a mole.
Saying I was never a Clinton supporter, and used that label to get "behind the scenes"

Whatever the fuck that means.

They personally attack you, and are paranoid as a mental patient.

Not all, but some.

They were the same ones you threw me under the bus because I didn't agree with them anymore.

31. Yup. They're not Hillary supporters...they're Obama haters.
And they become quite vicious towards anyone leaving the fold.
Once the nomination is settled, they'll be gone.

37. Where's the "I'm trying real hard to ignore it" option?
Only trying, obviously just now I have failed miserably.

However now I am regaining my senses and putting it back on ignore.

40. You'd think that after complaining forever about Obama supporters being assholes...
they'd be having orgasms at the thought that the mean nasty shithead Obama supporters are putting them on ignore and thus will not be able to post in their threads. If we were doing this list thing, it would be a license to Clinton supporters to speak without being contested.

The only logical reason I can imagine for some of them to be so outraged is that being on ignore doesn't allow them to provoke fighting (i.e. to troll) on the board.
