To the Hill-bots...
Edited on Fri Feb-29-08 06:37 PM by Malmo Blue
I tried to read GD-P to get the latest poll numbers before the March 4 primaries, but all I see are a bunch of threads from Hillary supporters bashing Barack Obama and using bad rhetoric to promote Hillary. Here are a few examples...

BO can't even come up with an original television ad. He has to plagiarize the Clinton ad
That Obama.........he's such a Uniter.........
Clinton takes back lead from Obama in Texas after trailing by 1 before the debate, now leads by 4!!!
Obama Sued to Win His First Election...why the feigned outrage?
Hillary Clinton is going to win the primary and the presidency.


And that's just the beginning. So I'm going to ask this to the legions of Hillary supporters that have surged recently...
If Barack Obama gets the Democratic nomination, will you support him? Or will you turn to another candidate?

Just asking.

26. If the shoe fits.
Give it the duck test.

yup. Knee-jerk insults at the slightest question of her electability for whatever reason.

Sexism! Sexism!

Some of us just don't like her. Call us names. We still don't like her.

And the name calling isn't working anymore.

I am not a troll/republican/McCain lover...fillin the blank.

I don't like her. I'm not alone.

32. But when you support childish name calling, then one shoe that no longer fits you is...
Edited on Fri Feb-29-08 07:41 PM by Bucky
the liberal shoe. The defintion of liberalism--"openness"--is to be opposed to closed minded thinking, the same kind of close minded thinking that makes people use divisive language like "Hillbot"

44. I'm not open to more war. More occupation.
So I'm not open to HRC. She represents big business, not me.

The hillbots just won't listen. She's more of the same.

9. Now, that's cute.
You're the second person to assume that I'm a eight-year-old living in momma's basement. And not the last one, I suspect.

All I'm asking is - if Obama gets the nomination, will Hillary supporters back him?

35. Wrong.
You're using the term Hill-bot. THAT automatically makes you a child.

Had you been a man, you would've edited by now.

Playtimes over! Bye now! :hi:

12. I have to tell you that I've noticed it goes both ways here.
We're a bunch of mean people and way too competitive for our own good I think.


All I Want Is For The Republicans To GO AWAY. They have nearly ruined us with their hypocritical religiosity and fear mongering. I can't take another republican in the White House!

May the democratic primaries be over and done with and unite us against the poor excuses for human beings that are trying to ruin us!

17. There aren't enough of them to be make up a legion, much less legions
Edited on Fri Feb-29-08 06:56 PM by leveymg
More than a platoon, less than a battalion.

This is their last stand - expect a lot of noise in these last days from the Light Brigade.

Half a league half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred:
'Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns' he said:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.

20. 100 replies - I'll bow out
An offer to the crowd, since I've gotten a conversation started here:

Get this baby up to 100 replies, and I'll bow out of DU and will never have to bother you again.

21. This is a conversation?

A conversation consists of ideas being exchanged. Unfortunately, your choice of words in the subject pretty much doomed this thread right from the start.

Of course, you did do one thing. You managed to unite both Hillary and Obama supporters in denouncing your initial lack of civility. Some with less restraint then others.

40. Is that the goal of some game you are playing?
That you can get 100 responses?

Well, I'll give you one more so you can get a little closer to going home.

And I'll keep checking back. Hey, you might get almost all of them from me.

Makes it SO much easier to pick out the ones who need to be Ignored until they mature past the mental age of ten.

that I have ever had deleted. I guess I used a word that was unacceptable, but correctly descriptive of the Op, so my reply vanished down the memory hole.

30. Maybe....
Edited on Fri Feb-29-08 07:43 PM by Demagitator
It depends, if it looks like my "non vote" for Obama means a vote for a Republican, then I would vote for Obama, because I have never in my life voted for a Republican.

However, even Nader says that Obama was pro-Palestinian -- before all the information came out about the Farrakhan scandal.

As a half Russian Jew -- that is a liberal -- I can assure you that with Obama giving a press release that he objects to Farrakhan support, is not enough; because those people are actively anti-Semitic.

Actions speak louder then words -- especially among liberals; were picketing about ones opinion is not uncommon. If Obama is truly anti-Farrakhan he would have to show me some action, like picketing in front of that anti-Semitic church to prove that he is opposed to Farrakhan support.

And it's none of your business how I vote.

BTW, you're being called a bratty child because you act like one. You could be 70 as far as I know, but you have the mentality of a spoiled 8 year old.

39. Do you like to be called a
cultist or a kool aid drinker? My guess is no.

I don't like being called a Hillbot. When you can ask your question more respectfully maybe I'll answer it.
