15. Look at me!

Look at me! I'm an internet activist who has no sense of history or grasp of the dynamics of politics! I alone determine who is a worthy Democrat! Fear me!

[Sukie]

19. k&r Supporter of Obama still. Supporter of democratic

beliefs always. If, regardless of how full our support is for Obama, we could work together for our beliefs as well as we work against each other on this board, we could get wonderful things accomplished.

[JuniperLea]

22. Well said, Sukie...

Too many would rather work against than to do anything truly meaningful.

[asdjrocky]

20. 22 comments and 2 recs.

Pretty telling of the mood around here.

[LoZoccolo]

25. Or lax moderation + Republican trolls.

In 2002 Skinner tombstoned everyone engaging in splinterism. Unfortunately since then, they've been permitted to spread their objectionable nonsense and chase normal people away, leading to a situation where we couldn't have a massive cull if we wanted because the funds would dry up. DU might just be beyond repair at this point.

[asdjrocky]

27. So you're blaming the mods.

okie-dokie.

[LoZoccolo]

33. Not necessarily. n/t

[Forkboy]

36. No, you're blaming admin.

29. You should start a thread about that.

It might be the one in 99 of yours that doesn't get locked.

[tabasco]

44. Yep.

Not sure why I'm still here.

One thing's for sure. No more donations.

[Number23]

76. "No more donations."

I felt that way myself and feel that way more and more with each day that passes. But then I saw the Feeding America fund drive and I feel like I'm getting sucked back in. It looks like a really good group.

[Feron]

63. I noticed that as well.

With all of the trolls running around, sometimes I have to check to make sure I am at a Democratic/progressive site.

[pecwae]

81. So what you want is an echo chamber; check.

Blaming the Mods is what is objectionable. There are rules to follow and the Mods must obtain consensus when enforcing them. You have a problem with the Mods; take it up with Skinner.

[onenote]

21. +1

Doesn't mean I agree with everything he has done or is doing. Its possible to support someone and disagree with them.

homeless people will be threatened with fines for failing to buy houses.

[Kahuna]

31. kahuna, reporting for duty..

:patriot:

[NRaleighLiberal]

32. Support - yes. disappointed at this point - yes.

But my disappointment spreads far and wide - essentially disillusionment at all politicians and the political process currently at play.

[Fire1]

34. Still supporting but waiting for fnal revelations of HCR bill. eom

[Richardo]

49. What the...? Not jumping the gun in an hysterical tirade over something that hasn't been written?

:pals:

50. Exactly. Back atcha.

Yes. It has been done before. It was funny too. One of the only humorous threads I have seen on DU in days. It was something that gave people a laugh in very dark times.

Just kidding! LOL

[Liberal_in_LA]

56. You scared me for a moment.

:)

[Aristus]

52. Here!

Yes, we can!

It's easy to tear down and destroy. And Bush had eight years to do it. President Obama doesn't have the luxury of lulling the masses with the siren-song of slam-dunk wars and "liberating" countries with lots of oil.

He has to undo all of Bush's idiocy (and he already has done a lot of that already) as well as forward his own domestic programs.

Bush took the easy route on EVERYTHING. President Obama is trying very hard to take the correct route, rather than simply the easy one.

Go ahead and flame away, haters. I've been here eight years; through all the lies and bullshit of the Clown Prince. I'll be here three years from now when I cast my vote to re-elect the President. I'm still thrilled to have Barack Obama as our President. If you want magic and fairy tales and effortless achievement, read children's literature.

[Liberal_in_LA]

57. good post Aristus!

[Aristus]

58. Thanks!

B-)

[opihimoimoi]

53. Didn't America support Bush when it COUNTED??? Including Dems..?

Only to watch him destroy our National Respect and Credibilty....

W Bush was our ONLY PRESIDENT at 9/16, 2001

and we supported him....until it became apparent we were lsitening to a man of WAR...unneccessary wasteful WAR.

Obama is the only quarterback we got....lets give him protection, make room for the running backs

He needs us badly....

[LaPera]

66. I never did - I knew Bush was all bullshit & would use it for republican, military & corporate gain.

I wasn't a robot a fool sucked into mainstream media that was firing ever progressives that disagreed with BushCo' wars fear tactics & capitalizing on 9/11. I did my own research and knew what bullshit was coming in the name of "patriotism" and republican & Bush bullshit....

So don't give me this bullshit too...Obama has been protecting Bush/Chenry at ever turn....so if you see it as a game and he's our ONLY quarterback then accept what you get....And that's what they want and count on....just keep your mouth shut and let them do what's right for you and you better love it! Obama & Emanuel want a bill, ANY bill even one that helps the insurance industry as long as Obama can parade around, get cameras at a signing of the bill and make it his center piece of his State of the Union address next month and lie and call it "REFORM" No single payer, No public option, No medicare buy in, NOTHING....

I voted for President Obama...This is NOT what Obama promised when he was asking and received my vote....I won't blindly follow as you and others are doing....

I truly wish he would of been tough and progressive and honored his campaign promises and us...people are truly hurting and dying and Omama says give into republican Snowe, give in to asshole Lieberman, give in to the republicans, give in to obscene corporate insurance and their disgusting policies tactics and profits....just get ANT bill through so I can sign it so Rahm can get me through re-election 2012!

Nope, I need to speak up!

[opihimoimoi]

75. As most here ...I too have reservations and hesitations, but...i will not support divisive efforts

benefit of doubt is my mode in favor of the overall effort to bring better advancement to the long term outlook.

[Feron]

60. I support the President.

I think that a lot of people confuse support with blind loyalty. Certainly Obama isn't above criticism, but I think that he is doing a decent job with the shitpile and Congress he has been given.

[Liberal_in_LA]

61. Me too Feron!

[Avalux]

62. I'm still here! Not ready to succumb to hysteria quite yet.

And I don't much recognize DU anymore, but, I AM still here. :hi:

[Liberal_in_LA]

65. I don't recognize DU either.

[bigwillq]

71. What's changed?

We all have different opinions. We're all still a bit crazy and passionate. There's trolls and freeps and libs and moderates and everything in between. And there is still good information to be collected here. Seems like the same old DU to me!

69. Checking in..

I don't know what DU was like during Bush era....but I support the President, I dont expect to agree with everything he does, but not going to be throwing a tantrum each time either..

[apocalypsehow]

72. I still support the lesser evil.

If we keep supporting the lesser evil evil will lesson.

Obama 2012

[Bobbie Jo]

74. You rang?

Here for the duration. :kick:

[Number23]

77. I support Obama, but I am eagerly awaiting to see his actions on several fronts

Including health care. I've stayed out of most of the health care debates here because I am currently in a country with healthcare for every citizen and resident and I don't think it would be appropriate for me to talk about this right now when so many are hurting.

I support him and wish him and our country all the very best.

[TicketyBoo]

78. Not quite as enthusiastic

as I was a year ago, but still hopeful. Fatigued from the health care BS.
