So I see it is trash Tim Kaine day. Pathetic. Might not get the VP you want

[my3boyz]

so trash one of the finalists. Whatever happened to allowing Obama to choose the person he is most comfortable with?

[JerseygirlCT]

1. What constitutes "trashing"?

Disagreement with some of his positions? Concern over some of his positions?

I'm not going to agree that that adds up to "trashing". That's being responsible and aware.

[thewiseguy]

6. Saying that he sucks. He is piece of shit and more...

I believe that constitutes trashing. ;-)

[Bluebear]

10. Using people's actual quotations to form an opinion of them.

I guess.

[Maddy McCall]

2. So Kaine suddenly becomes great because Obama is considering him?

DUers have every right to criticize Kaine's political stances.

If that makes you uncomfortable, maybe there's a knitting forum somewhere that's less stressful for you.

[LostinVA]

12. Yes

I was accused of lying and sliming... even though I voted for Kaine and donated money to him!

[mcctatas]

13. I tried knitting...

that shit is stressful! :hi:

[hlthe2b]

3. We have every right to discuss concerns; that is not trashing.

You want to be surrounded by sycophants?--better head over to a RW site.

4. I think whomever Obama chooses will be trashed initially -

by those who would have preferred somebody else. It's just Kaine today because he's IT currently.

It'll all settle down once everybody gets used to the idea of the new guy on the ticket.

[my3boyz]

8. I just want everyone to trust Obama on this. He has run a really

great campaign. He has made good judgments. He has a really good team. I just think we need to trust him on it regardless of the VP. I personally would prefer Biden but I will support Obama/Kaine ticket if that is the person Obama feels the most comfortable with.

[gateley]

24. I understand. nt

[Cha]

25. Well, "everyone" won't but the majority

probably will after the initial hysteria dies down.

[JerseygirlCT]

26. Oh, I'll support the ticket...

I'd just be a whole lot happier with Biden, or someone else who isn't capable of allowing creeping incursions on my rights to my own body, you know?

[Barack_America]

5. Too late. There have already been a couple such threads.

We don't need an official announcement to begin trashing a fellow Dem around here!

[LostinVA]

15. Fuck Clinton!

Oops -- wrong thread.

Stating Kaine's stance on issues is not "trashing." It's stating his stance on issues.

[Barack_America]

19. That's between you and Hillary.

I personally don't have a desire to fuck her, but thanks for the suggestion.

[Marrah_G]

20. Oooooooo...... damn, she got you Lost.

[LostinVA]

21. FUCK CLINTON!

[Sparkly]

7. Of COURSE he's allowed to choose! And choose he will.

Nobody's stopping him.

His choice won't stop my vote for him, either.

But geeeeez -- looks like I'm not going to be happy about it, and I'm not going to pretend I am.

[Bluebear]

9. wrong spot

[Marrah_G]

11. So discussing the pros and cons BEFORE someone is picked is bashing?

[Bluebear]

14. You seem to have the protocol stated exactly!

:eyes:

[Marrah_G]

17. Sorry you were getting attacked on that other thread

[LostinVA]

16. YES

[Marrah_G]

18. Since you are the Gay Police...can't you arrest him?

[LostinVA]

23. I wish!!!

[Mass]

22. So he is sacred because the media told us he is the favorite?

I will support him if Obama chooses him. Until them, let me say he is not a good choice IMHO (and NO, I was not a Clinton supporter and am not a freeper. I've been an Obama supporter for now 2 years and expect him to find somebody better, that is all).
