I just donated $50.00 to the DLC.
Because I support Democrats that support the Democratic party.

4. I guess they must have been out of scratch-n-play lottery tickets at the 7-11.
Try it sometime. The odds of winning are better.

35. Dear Cleita, don't try to understand the mind of the shooter
Attempts to understand the shooter's motivation, beyond the simple surface explication that he lashes out in order to last out, always drag us down into making excuses for his acts. It's a fetid murky pool down there, you don't have to dip your toe in to know it's not sanitary to swim in it.

75. The DLC is becoming as adept as the Republicans when it comes to
getting people to vote against their own interests.

I suppose it shouldn't be surprising as, if the Republican party had not gone totally nuts, many DLCers would have joined the Republicans.

Edited on Wed Nov-11-09 01:07 PM by Tracer
But not for the reason you think.

I sent in the $50, and a week or ten days later, I got another payment envelope from them.

Forgetting that I had already written them a check, I sent them ANOTHER $50!!

Duh.


I correct myself! It was the DNC.

Edited on Wed Nov-11-09 01:05 PM by brentspeak
Every dollar to the DLC further enables Wall St. to control Democrats...which will, in turn, further enable Wall St. to control the government...which will, in turn, further enable Wall St. to rape us, the People.

169. Disagree with that, as well . . . GIVE to the candidates/office holders you want to encourage . . .
not overall to the party which is allowing the DLC to continue on --

and sponsoring PRIVATE corporations to monitor debates, etal.

Barring third parties --

not healthy!

222. Not while Tim Kaine is in charge.
My money goes directly to Progressives
like Feingold. I also give to DFA and
People for the American Way and MoveOn.

I gave to the DNC when it was clear that
they were pursuing a 50-state strategy,
now, I don't trust them to put the money
to the best use.

cash.

What a shocker that would go to the DLC and not, say, Move On or ACORN.

Who cares, smirky, I mean "Simply"--remember this is the Democratic UNDERGROUND, not the happy to be a DINO forum. We're radicals here and not impressed with your cave in to corporatism in the least.
Go brag about it on the Politico forum.

47. You would be better off to select individual Democrats that represent your attitudes.
The DLC decides how to distribute your money, and some of it will likely go to Democrats who really should be Republicans, so you really aren't doing anything to help yourself or the real Democrats.

I quit donating to all of the Democratic organizations (DCCC, DLC, etc., ) long ago, and when the call asking for money I tell them I will not support them due to their support of the Blue Dogs. Then I donate to a Democratic representative that I want to support, like Boxer, Grayson, Feingold, Waxman, etc.

It is obvious that the Democratic Party is returning to it's root, and I ain't talking about the New Deal. That should suit you just fine, a center/right party without the taint of socialism, a home for kinder, gentler reactionaries.

Not because he wanted to have a discussion. Despite his "who me?" protestations, it's nothing more than flamebait. Of course, the OP is great at that sort of thing.

76. So if I post a racist joke, it's the fault of the people responding for turning it into a flamefest?
If he'd said, "I donated $50 to the DLC and here's why..." that would've been one thing. But are you seriously so blind you don't see that the OP only posted this knowing it was get under people's skin?

From wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flamebait
"Flamebait is a message posted to a public Internet discussion group, such as a forum, newsgroup or mailing list, with the intent of provoking an angry response (a "flame") or argument over a topic the troll often has no real interest in."

227. Speaking as the (now retired) mod who locked those other 2 threads
I'll say that, in my opinion, this thread is indeed quite a bit different. It's making a point about support of a Democratic group, rather than just being a reaction to the DU infighting and the personalities involved.

The thread starter may have known there would be a strong reaction against his OP; but that goes for a hundered or more threads, with all sorts of points of views, on DU every day. DU would be finished if all threads prvoking a strong reaction were shut.

I challenge every DUer in this thread (who is financially able - and believe me, I completely understand during these trying times if you are unable) to donate $50 to an actual progressive organization, whether political, environmental, animal welfare, or otherwise.

Thanks to the OP's misguided donation, he has spurred us to help real progressive causes even more. :patriot:

Mine is going to The Greater Yellowstone Coalition.

116. Good for you!
from the DLC and their corporate masters, this song is for you.



How dare you criticize this industry we're serving!
You dare accuse us of a monstrous crime!
We're only guilty of commitment that's unswerving:
To maximizing profits every time!

Profits before people:
It's the better business plan.
So we deny your coverage when we can.
We must preserve our way of life
from the approaching storm.
Yeah, that's why we've been crushing health reform!

Profits before people:
The Insurers' bottom line.
And up 'til now it's served us mighty fine.
'Cause jacking up your premiums
is how we're keeping warm.
Yeah that's why we've been crushing health reform!

We gotta stop the Public Option! (Or limit access to it!)
We gotta stop the Public Option! (Let the states opt out!)
We gotta stop the Public Option! (Just put a trigger on it!)
We gotta stop the Public Option!

Yeah, profits before people!
Profits before people!
Profits before people every time!
Oh yeah!

not only would I never donate to any of them but I would (1) never vote for one (even if it means no vote on a ballot) (2) would contribute/work for any progressive candidate running against them and (3) and post comments in their local papers/blogs linking to their support of corporate interest over that of the people.
