1. K&R

[RussBLib]

2. that's enough to get you blocked

by some of the hypersensitive mods; I guess it simply depends upon their mood.

[muriel_volestrangler]

4. Not sure who you mean by 'mods'; this is a general forum, with hosts

who can't 'block' anyone, though they can lock threads. But not for posting this.

Did you mean 'jury members'?

[RussBLib]

37. yeah, I guess I had my terms confused - n/t

[LoverOfLiberty]

42. What would be the complaint?

It has to fall under a specific category of violation, which I don't think it does.

[ProfessorGAC]

11. Don't Agree

This cartoon is still suggesting that a democrat should support Hillary, even if Bernie was their preference.

I think the preponderance of Sanders' supporters are of that mind.

[RussBLib]

40. and I am of that mind too

and that sentiment goes down fine in the General Forums. I don't even remember the exact wording of the post they removed and banned me for in the Sanders group, but I think it was along those lines. And I guess it doesn't matter I was a Bernie backer right out of the gate, but things have changed.

They say timing is everything.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

12. lol. we really love living in a fact free zone, don't we?

[TwilightZone]

14. Nope.

Not enough to get hidden.

Complaining about forum moderation might be, though.

[MADem]

21. You don't understand how this place works, apparently.

It's your PEERS who make these decisions. Not "almighty" or "hypersensitive" mods.

smh.

There's a TOS for this place that explains it all. Link at the bottom of every page.

[RussBLib]

36. you're probably right

I must have missed something in that latest round of rules changes. I thought I read them all, but maybe not.

and my reference to "mods" should have read "hosts", which shows another blind spot of mine: I assumed that a Host of one of these "Main" forums could also delete a post, like they can do in a "Group". I guess they cannot.

[MADem]

39. Hosts of forums can only delete OPs if they don't fit the SOP for the forum,

e.g. an opinion piece in LBN. Anything downthread goes to a jury.

Group hosts can delete any post and block the poster; the groups are pretty much fiefdoms for like-minded people.

[demmiblue]

45. Small quibble...

hosts can lock threads, not delete them.

[MADem]

46. You are quite right--LOCK, not delete!

It grinds the parade to a halt, though.

[bonemachine]

34. Looks like it was enough to garner an alert

but sanity prevailed!

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

3. I concur. nt

[colsohlibgal]

5. We Cannot Let Trump Win

He and a good deal of his supporters are a dangerous combination of stupid and crazy.

Sam Bee sent three of her staffers to wander the convention hall and talk to Trump lovers. OMG dumber than a mud fence, it would be funny but it's more alarming at this juncture.

We had 8 years of Bush and the damage he caused reverberates today and into the foreseeable future. But this feels different and infinitely more threatening for all of us.

6. K&R

[GoneOffShore]

7. Ivan Hernandez tweeted:

"I'm proBernie but would vote Hillary as I am a one issue voter and that issue is not opening the seventh seal and ushering in the apocalypse."

[Wounded Bear]

13. Well put...

[TwilightZone]

15. Nice one.

And appropriate, too.

[Else You Are Mad]

29. That is one of my favorite tweets of all time.

[uponit7771]

49. +1

[ms liberty]

53. Love it. n/t

[Iggo]

8. Exactly.

[Mass]

9. This reflects perfectly my mood.

[Cryptoad]

10. The Bernie Revolution

will have far more success under a Hillary administration than a Trump administration!

[GoneOffShore]

16. Exactly. And will do much to change the direction of the arrow on that logo.

[Cryptoad]

17. why would u want...

to go backward rather than forward?

[MADem]

22. Really--the arrow the other way would look ... regressive!!!

[GoneOffShore]

35. Left rather than right.

Which is the subtle message that that logo sends.

[MADem]

41. That looks like forward to me. nt

[GoneOffShore]

47. Then we'll have to agree to disagree on that

[Cryptoad]

43. Left or Right has never had anything to do with that Logo! ,,geeez

[Lucky Luciano]

19. That's the nicest thing you ever implied about Bernie!

Brings a tear to my eye.

[Cryptoad]

24. u must be a seer

if u know everything I have implied about Bern! Do u know what I'm think right now?

[wallyworld2]

18. she is lucky that way

she doesn't deserve the supporters that she is getting

and

we can not tolerate the alternative

to me she is the same old, same ol

A text book of example of the corporate dem Thomas Frank writes about

[Cryptoad]

25. if u feel that way then u should

absolutely help Trump get elected by not voting her. That will move ur revolution ,,,! geeez

[wallyworld2]

26. hmmm

a little melodramatic don't you think?

it's okay to not tow the party line

[Cryptoad]

32. Its Ok to vote for whom u wish,,,,,,

but i can not endorse a vote or non vote that would help Trump get elected. I was taught that i would know good people by their actions,

[wallyworld2]

33. That

is not always the case

[SammyWinstonJack]

52. Thought she said that she had enough primary voters to beat tRump....didn't need Sanders'supporters.

Has she lost some of her primary supporters.....?

[wallyworld2]

54. You

need to check into that

[Stellar]

20. K&R!!! Neither am I...and

I'm voting BLUE! Yessss!

[StraightRazor]

23. Yep...

Perfectly stated.

[NobodyHere]

27. Pretty much my feelings

[bonemachine]

28. Just served on a jury for this

You gotta be fuckin' kidding me...

[demmiblue]

38. Wow.

[Nye Bevan]

30. I'm not sure I've ever been "crazy" about a presidential candidate.

Everyone I have voted for I have disagreed with on several issues. I just vote for whoever is preferable to his or her opponent. And this time around it's the easiest choice ever.

[jimlup]

31. One thing that concerns me is the enthusiasm gap

This cartoon describes me but as Michael Moore pointed out this morning... this means I'll vote in November but I won't bring 5 others along with me.

[clarice]

44. I was trying to find the words to express this tactfully...you did it with 1 cartoon. nt

[LostOne4Ever]

48. Nails it. nt

[Martin Eden]

50. I'm gonna steal that

And use that as a response to an occasional question.

[Gothmog]

51. Great cartoon

[Lifelong Protester]

55. I am too close to SS and Medicare

I cannot afford to let a Repuke anywhere near the WH.

[Omaha Steve]

56. I just changed my sig with this toon

Thanks,
