What a surprise this is, the sudden influx of so many posts barfing up rightwing bullshit, and

[Redstone]

all of it under the guise of "concern about what the Republicans MIGHT say."

Some here do protest too much, methinks.

1. Most of 'em are me...

written under multiple usernames.

3. I owe you a PM. I'll send it tomorrow, because tonight I'm busy fighting off

the fucker who keeps stabbing my shoulder with the ice pick.

I'm going to ask you for a favor that I REALLY need for you to do, through your network of music people. I NEED someone to work on my Autoharp for me, so I can play again. I really do.

More later.

Redstone

[TomInTib]

9. Whatever you need, Friend.

You know that.

T.

[Redstone]

12. See your PM. I'm done for the day.

2. They have been "influxing" for a few months, now

[mrreowwr_kittty]

6. There's nothing wrong with that.

If Hillary Clinton had a chance in hell of getting R and independent votes, she'd be doing the same thing.

[BeatleBoot]

7. Sounds like a winning recipe for November, then!

Good luck!

[Mezzo]

20. There's nothing wrong with that? Is THAT the Politics of Hope?

wow. I had no idea. If that thing is real, it's disgusting.

And it speaks a lot to the authenticity of this "different kind of politics".

wow.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

37. Getting Republicans and Independents excited enought to vote for a Dem?

Sorry, I can't think of anything wrong with it. :shrug: And if Clinton could do it, she would.

[stillcool]

8. that's great isn't it?

I know someone who has voted republican and is now voting for Obama. He is a policeman who grew up, and still lives in a very republican town. It's funny how one party can be so entrenched in a local government. I suppose that anyone who has ever voted republican can be seen by some, such as yourself as the 'enemy'. In my case I see him as my cousin.

[BeatleBoot]

10. That's Cool!

I think that's great and I wish you all the best!

Actually, I have Republican/Conservative friends, but many more progressives/liberals/Democrats as friends.

Hey, I think that's great.

[lisainmilo]

39. I know some republicans that have voted for Obama...

I think it is GREAT!




BTW, I think it is the American Public who has been screwed by the current administration, republican and democrat alike. We the people are in the same boat! But that is just my opinion. I actually have alot of respect for a republican who has come to find out just what Bush and Co. are!

[thevoiceofreason]

4. Amen

[Mike03]

5. I wish you would be more specific

so I can tell if I'm one of the bullshit asshole bastards who is worried.

[Redstone]

11. I don't remember calling anyone a "bullshit asshole bastard." Maybe because I didn't.

Redstone

[Mike03]

19. You didn't

But you are intelligent enough that I know what you are thinking and pay attention to what you post here because I respect your opinions.

Peace

[Redstone]

21. Then please don't put words in my mouth, and there will be peace. If you pay attention to

my posts, you'll know that I do not ever engage in name-calling. I'll apply any manner of epithets to people's opinions or posts, but not to them personally.

Redstone

[Mike03]

25. If you say so. Whatever.

[Redstone]

28. Thank you so much for your consideration.

Redstone

[Mike03]

32. I really admire people who can be so blunt and aggressive for no particular reason,.

and have no second thoughts or doubts once they express their feelings. If that is a gene please pass it on. I need it.

Peace.

[Tresalisa]

13. You've made your point very well,

but don't we need to be aware of which attacks to expect so that when we get into a conversation and someone brings it up we can counter it? :think:

[Redstone]

15. Valid point indeed, IF those posts were made for that reason. Unfortunately, most of them

are absurdly thinly-disguised attacks from the Usual Suspects here, who will do or say ANYTHING to attack the candidate who is not their preferred one, or the supporters of that candidate.

Just read the posts closely; you'll find the lack of honesty where it exists.

Redstone

[emilyg]

35. That's your opinion. You're entitled.

[blogslut]

14. I thought after last night, things would be calmer here

I thought wrong.

[Redstone]

16. Whattayou, nuts? It's not going to be calm for a long time, I'm afraid. Not even after the

Two Big Primaries. And, (I hate to be the one to have to break this news to you), probably not even after we have a Democratic President.

Some people are NEVER happy. And those people will be posting here; that's the one thing we CAN be sure of.

But the place would be boring if it were not so, yes?

Redstone

[blogslut]

17. Yeah, I am nuts.

But that makes me fascinating!

[Redstone]

18. To me, anyway (the fascinating part).

And that's the truth.

Redstone

[blogslut]

23. golly

thanks :)

[Redstone]

26. No need for modesty on your part. Not to me, at least; you ought to know by now that

I respect people who do what you do and say what you say. And who do so with no regard for the consequences.

Redstone

[blogslut]

29. How dare you, sir!

I am a horrible, awful, filthy person and damned proud of it!

[Redstone]

31. If you read my reply before I edited it, you'll understand why I edited it.

This is a public place, after all.

Redstone

[blogslut]

33. LOL. It's all good

I'm just funnin' ya. But I do appreciate the nice things you said. They mean a lot.

You're all right, Redstone.

This doesn't mean I won't call you names in the future. It just means that I'll think about it before I do. ;)

[Major Hogwash]

22. We just read our latest "talking points" memo from Hannity or O'Reilly.

So, not all of us have had time to digest and "barf up" all of the talking points yet.
Give us some time to put it in "cut and paste" form before you complaim about it, okay?

My e-mail server has been down for some time today, so I haven't had time to spam the board yet with all of my "McCain's the One" theme posts.

Oh, by the way, we never use the term "influx" anymore, because it reminds people of the movie, "Back to the Future" - due to the influx capacitor that Doc built to send his car back in to the future - and that sort of leads us into a sticky discussion about the whole Michael Fox thing that sort of embarrassed Rush when he made fun of Fox's illness a while back. So, we try to avoid that term.

In fact, we don't use the term "future" anymore either. We only talk about the past, now that McCain's the One.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

24. I actually had the urge to put one posters head in a blender

...and hit liquefy.


Not because I meant them any harm mind you. I just wanted to see if it would make a difference in their posting style or if their brains were already mush. x(

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

27. Yeah. Like, There Was This Post Last Night Trying To Spark Up Shit About Ron Paul And Stuff.

Came off to me as a total plant who was just trying to get away with sayin ron paul on DU!!! :P

[Redstone]

30. Oh, yeah, THAT guy was a TOTAL rightwing tool, wasn't he?

I've been keeping an eye on him for a while, and you should too.

Redstone

(OMC: Good to have you back, it is.)

[apocalypsehow]

34. Yep. K & R.

n/t

[JeffR]

36. Your post concerns me

;-)

[BenDavid]

38. listen, it is you obama folks that have your head in the damn

sand that believe the right wing is going to play nice with obama. If you think the clintons played rough with obama there will be no comparison what the right and the republicans and the rnc will be throwing at obama....

If I find some article from some right wing rag and think it's news worthy I will paste it in here to inform someone with common sense to at least be concerned.

Republicans haven't started to,all of a sudden, want to lose Presidential elections,they've got a plan. Have you ever heard The Fascicons say anything nice about a Democrat espescially a Liberal one ? They only like and say nice things about Phony Democrats like Liebermann and Zell Miller who do what the Republicans want.

So if you think it is fear we post then maybe someone better have some damn good defense against it, because the right does not like to be without power....

[ErnestoG]

40. Thats what happens when Obama gets within striking distance.

All the puke from the Hillary side oozes out of seams in the barfbag.
