24. I'm guessing it was due to multiple F-Bombs,
indiscriminately hurled. She loved throwing them, and throw them she did.

Although the last couple of posts were edging up to the line on racism, if not over the line.

10. I just realized that the tombstone is sexist.
Shouldn't it really be gender neutral? Or maybe a his and hers?

12. There should be a grave yard thread.
It would be nice to see them all lined up pretty like.


I'd plant geraniums.

25. I alerted the Obama group about liberal nurse back in December, when I was a Bidenite
Here is the thread:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=388&topic_id=933

liberal nurse was using an Obama avatar at the time and had posted an unflattering photo of Obama, his features markedly darkened, a cigarette dangling from his lips.

26. I saw all that...I couldn't believe it!
Thanks for alerting, IG. She was a Dean supporter and was always quite civil to everyone and then all hell broke lose when she started supporting hilary and gettin' all weird on Obama.

She thought she was being so clever with Obama avatar..talkin' trash about him.

30. I didn't know she was a Deaniac
I was among the earliest of Dean supporters in DU, together with the late Kephra.

Strange how the internet makes rivals of people that would otherwise be friends if they were to meet in person.

I still miss Jiacinto, who had one hell of a video interview in Paris shortly after 9-11 in which he expressed clearly progressive views and very concerned about the Bush regime withholding information. I heard he too was a Deaniac.

31. Jiacinto was not a Deaniac
I emailed with him leading up to the '04 primaries and he was mildly supporting Edwards. I believe he had supported Dean initially, but without typical conviction of a so-called Deaniac.

Regardless, I miss Jiacinto also. The threads examining voting trends in specific counties or regions are all but absent from DU these days. That wasn't the case when Carlos was around.

If you know what I mean. Their postings are unmistakeable.

34. That is a NASTY, NASTY duo there.
It was odd because LiberalNurse, I think, was an Obama person.

But she had a long history in my eyes as being really fucked up. She was always defending tasering people.


Sayonara, Nursie.

27. Does this mean this user was just deleted?
I just tangled with billbuckhead twice, he was saying a black person could never win.

35. billbuckhead was a racist clown, and he didn't even try to hide it.
After our last exchange, I had to bury him...glad to see he's no longer with us. Yup, he's been banned, but don't be surprised when a "newbie" shows up sounding just like him. They all come back, in one form or another.

15. I totally missed this happening
I actually felt kind of bad for AGirl. She seemed not all there.

Who the fuck am I to talk? I'm not all there, either.

22. If I was completely honest in my opinions of that particular troll
I'd probably be in the graveyard with them. Let's just say that pizza was LONG overdue.

23. I'm not totally disagreeing
Actually, I'm not disagreeing at all. I just think that some people are here to only cause problems but other people here cause problems because they have problems. I could be wrong, but after reading some of her rants, man, I get the feeling that's some trip going on in that noggin.

36. I wonder if anyone who hated agirl
Understands the political context of her anger, as a transexual person, at this time in our lawmaking? She had every right to be pissed off, and anyone with a mind of anykind in her position would be insane with anger. The utter lack of out reach and empathy I found sickening.
I did not read all of her posts, and she was clearly on a full tilt jag, but all I'm saying is that if you were in those shoes, you'd probably also be losing it. The trans people got a very bad slap in the face, in part from the GLB portion of the GLBT community. Her anger was evident, but a lack of anger on her part would be far more indicitive of mental illness than righteous rage.
I really doubt very much that given the high level of the stakes, that Agirl give much of a rip what anyone here thinks, I doubt she cares if some felt insulted.
The problem with Democrats is we claim to empathize with the underdog and stand with the weaker of our people, when in fact we eat our own if they don't behave.
What did Malcolm X say again, 'By any means that does not bother the oppessing group?' No, that is not right.
Here's what Susan B said:
"Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputation or social standing never can bring about reform. Those who are really in earnest are willing to be anything or nothing in the world's estimation, and publicly and privately, in season and out, avow their sympathies with despised ideas, and bear the consequences." -- Susan B. Anthony

Something to think about. Susan B would have been T'stoned, and Malcolm too.
