here is the Obama supporters strategy , let it sink ! |
|
and before I go further let me just say once again I am not for Hillary or McCain either so you can save that .
The Obama gang for lack of a better term have come with their little ignore lists and what this does is allow the Hillary people to say whatever they want now about Obama and the Obama gang cannot even come to their leaders defense . It's sort of like putting a blindfold on and hang glidding .

5. No , all it shows if what you say is true it that Both O or H |
|
supporters need their own forums and save everyone else who trys to get real info a lot of time . Since this the only DU forum where candidate disscussion is allowed .
Both candidates are liars and should be exposed because i don't intend to vote for a liar . However here if a lie is exposed then the defence teams come along to make one sides lie worse than the others when a lie is a lie in the end .

9. I'm having a hard time understanding your point. |
|
are you saying you like this forum because people can discuss various news points with people supporting another candidate, or are you saying this forum is useless because its just full of spin anyways? Mind you i like this forum because i believe its full of left leaning people (for lack of a better term) and i like that point of view. I just dont see the point in responding to flamebait.

17. I'm saying I liked this forum when you could > |
|
Find out what people thought of the candidates and why they thought what they thought . This forum began before it was just down to Omama and Hillary if I recall correctly , perhaps I'm wrong because this seems to have been Hillary and Obama for a year now .
I don't think i have seen one post that has not turned into flame baiting have you ?

19. I hoped I could support either Hillary or Obama |
|
I ruled out Hillary and thought just maybe Obama might be better .
However once the Obama supporters IMHO got a bit to far out and once Obama began to lie too I posed questions to his supporters with the intent of trying to see for myself what was hype and what was real and what I got was bashed for asking . I don't give a damn how you ask the question , there is no rigtht way or safe way to do it . so I tried direct questions .
If you are an Obama supporter go ahead and ask a Hillary supporter any question you have and see what happens .

4. There's a difference between defense and pure futility arguing with bullies or the insane asylum |

When the argument starts out in some absurd manner like, "Candidate X is a rapist. Prove to us why he isn't," then of course ignore/let it sink is the only smart thing to do.

7. You know, you ALWAYS claim to be a neutral observer, yet you always attack Obama. |

13. That's true because on the internet ANYONE can claim anything |
|
without any proof at all . However if you look at my first reply to this thread I said both Hillary and Obama are liars . And if you have read any of my posts I have always said I don't support either one or McCain .
I never out right attacked Obama I posted my own questions to Obama supporters but you can't do that here because if you are not in 100% agreement with Obama you get endless insults and bashing and accusations . I do have questions so I ask Obama supporters I am not about to ask Hillary people now am I ? I did not even attack Obama supporters I asked a question but if you don't post the question in a perfect manner which there seems this perfect does not exist then it's a waste of time .
Here : Hillary is a liar and she has made herself look like a fool over and over again . Liars do not have my respect .
McCain is a freak from the right wing bush camp , He really does not have to lie so much anymore . He's just waiting for the Dems to get their shit together .

10. Why would you say something like this? |
|
Don't you know by now what the responses will be from both sides?

11. "let it sink" = "don't feed the trolls" |
|
Not so much an Obama supporter strategy as it is a message board strategy.
