10. I guarantee you THIS one will be locked, tho. I'd rather see GD:P SHUT DOWN than see this crap |
|
allowed to continue here. Anyone, ANYONE who comes here looking for Democratic support or information has GOT to be mortified.
Wonderful.

6. Unfortunately, many of HRC's supporters are as *self-righteous* as she is. |

19. I support Hillary, and I agree racist remarks should stop.... |
|
and I also agree that calling Hillary a bitch, whore, ho, cunt, shillary or whatever else name that some of the Obama supporters come up with should also stop.

26. Agreed. All threads calling her that get locked and alerted by other Obama people, you know. |

12. Anytime a thread is locked, another one pops up and the only difference is that the mods get flamed |
|
So why bother? Just let them go and allow people to expose themselves for whatever they are.

30. That is unfair. I did not counterattack! How can you say I "tatted". Not true. |
|
What about leaving Age-ism out of the OP?
Do I have to put everthing in an OP to make it fair? Come on.
I am asking to see a spark, a twinkle or understanding from a Hillary supporter that THIS has gone too far.
The "Ladies Man" thread is vile. I wrote my OP about that type of thread.

23. Is this when I get to stomp my feet and say that there is nothing racist here... |
|
and that Obama supporters are just making it all up, although indeed there are threads in here that are racist?
I can?
Thanks!
