Obamababies...how immature and insulting can you get to use this word?
Advertisements [?]
Why do people feel the need to personally INSULT supporters of a candidate they disagree with?
This goes for people who say 'Hillbots' and that kind of garbage, it's absolutely no better, but 'Obamababies' I find insulting on so many levels.
You know what?
How does that even pass for acceptable political discourse in your book? Insult INDIVIDUAL IDIOTS if you feel you have to, but don't refer to everyone who support Hillary or Obama by an insulting nickname. It's dreadfully immature, it makes you look like an asshole, and it makes it impossible for many people to take you seriously, or want to listen to what you have to say.
If you insist in wallowing in immature insults, then go ahead, be my guests.
I'd really like to think most of us are above that, though.
