New Rules: No more Sarah postings, same for McCain. That crap is living in the past
Get rid of all the Lipstick icons, etc.

They are gone, like ghosts, they only exist now because we keep them alive.

1. The GD:P forum is still here and I'm not done making fun of them yet.

6. And we deserve a little fun, don't we!
After all that hard work, stress, and aggravation.

20. Hey folks, you can only run over a dead cat so many times before it quits being fun.

31. She is NOT a dead cat. She's more like a
jack-in-the-box, and she will keep popping up until we wear out the mechanism.

And I don't know how many repetitions that will take. I've never worn out a jack-in-the-box before.

3. She's going to be rising up again in a couple of years, unless she is thoroughly
exposed now.

McCain, we don't have to worry about. He's toast.

16. Exactly - insane AP ARTICLES like "is Palin ready to resurrect the GOP" means you're wrong
this is necessary, to say nothing of how much fun it is.

But why is this useless, thoroughly unqualified idiot fit to resurrect anything??? This woman is vapid, frighteningly uninformed, fundie, batshit fascist threat to everything good in America.

A few weeks of letting the Republicans fire her off in a space garbage capsule is a very good thing.

32. I think some people here want her to stay viable, to give her to Obama to
run against next time.

Not me. Obama can hold his own against whoever they put up. I don't ever want to see her in national politics again.

36. Exactly - something that dangerous is not worth playing around with
and I still believe in a just fury descending on a creature as fouled by iniquity as that grifter.

9. New Rules: No more board Nazis.
Get rid of all the DUers who think they can tell everybody what to do.

They are annoying, like Sarah Palin.

Get rid of all the DUers who think they can tell everybody what to do.

Oh, how I wish that it could be so. A few (obnoxious, pain in the ass) posters IMMEDIATELY spring to mind, too.

What a glorious place this would be... an Internet discussion board where people are actually free to have discussions...

11. Like the rest of Obama's opponents, they're irrelevant.
Consigned to the dust bin of history.

But if anybody else wants to bring them up, I don't have a problem discussing them.

Looking again. Nope. Don't see it. Sorry. You're tough out of luck. Apply next mod term. Maybe you'll get lucky.

I happen to enjoy the threads about Sarah. In a way, I've almost become like some bizarre anti-fan. I can't get enough of those stories. Keep 'em coming, DU!

NO RULES promulgated by others.

23. Sarah is the tip of a very dangerous iceberg
Edited on Thu Nov-06-08 12:47 PM by junofeb
of which 99% is lurking under the surface. She needs to be pursued and put totally out of power.

She is linked to many anti-democratic groups especially thru her cult-like religion:

"Seven Mountains" and the "Joel's Army" plan for takeover -on Daily Kos

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/10/7/165650/170

These people are dedicated to subverting the democratic process. Their roots and tendrils are slowly advancing within this country especially with faith-based funding and initiatives which leave the door wide open for them to prey upon the weakest and tramatized of our society. They are no better than scientologists or moonies, but are cloaked by their hypocritical wielding of Jesus's name. It behooves us to never shut up about her until her cult is relegated to the round file of history. We have much work to do.

41. How true.
Look at the people who refuse to see who she is even when the truth is revealed by their gatekeepers. She's got some *glamour* in the oldest sense of the term, and that is not a good thing.

24. nah--there's still plenty of entertainment value there, for one thing
for another, they aren't irrelevant, because their actions and reputations will play a part in how the gop and the country understands and reacts to their defeat.

on anything that doesn't interest you. Let other DUers decide for themselves what is interesting or not.

27. I follow the rules as posted by the administrators and moderators of this forum.
Unless and until Palin and/or McCain threads are declared verboten by those people, I suggest you use the "hide thread" feature.

As another poster said, I haven't started any Palin or McCain threads, but I don't mind seeing them either. Some of the information is relevant, because you can be certain Palin will appear again in the national spotlight.

there's a rift in their party. let's help tear it! Moderate Conservatives vs. Christian Right can only help drive moderates to us or split the party in two. It's win-win.

Sorry, you do remember the 1st Amendment rights and the fact that this is NOT your website. If you have a problem with posts about Palin and/or McCain - hide them. Don't be an asshole about it.
