CAN WE PLEASE STOP THE HATE?
Edited on Thu Feb-28-08 06:14 PM by Liberalboy
I've heard the charges of sexism and I agree with them, I've heard the charges of racism and I agree with them. I was a Kucinich supporter who voted for Clinton in my primary (which she lost) but donated to Obama's campaign. Can we just stop attacking each other and focus on the good of the party and the country, because right now the Rethuglicans are sitting back, having a laugh and smoking a cigar while watching us devour ourselves.

Just tone it down, please.

Sigh.

Thanks for listening...

2. Very little hate.
It's wrapping up.

4. Some of these discussions are healthy and necessary...
but most of them are not, in my opinion. At least not for me. I am very close to losing interest in the DU and leaving forever because of the negativity and hate. This is not what I originally began coming to the DU for, and it is very unappealing to me. It makes me sad, honestly.

5. I remember
seeking this forum out in 2000 after it became evident that Bush stole the election and we were going down a very scary path. DU always gave me chance to feel safe and comfortable in the presence of other social liberals and progressives....how sad that at such a pivitol moment with two nominees that will make history I no longer feel the same. :-(

I agree with you funkybutt
