52. Have you ever felt like every GD:P post should have the poster's "count" for the day?
Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 12:27 PM by Tesha
So this could be, say, MM's "2nd of 3"? And maybe even links
to their other posts of the day so you could see if, for
example, there's a theme to a given day's horsepucky?

105. We all have
And we will all suffer the consequences I am sorry to say.
Hoodwinked by the campaign of the empty suit who has been chosen by the party elders to destroy the Clintons and erase the legacy of the only democratic president many people can remember.
The Obama campaign is deeply narcissistic and very destructive.

Starting the video out with the assassination scene from Malcolm X and then playing that song seemed more than a bit creepy.

A completely artless campaign devoid of a positive message she is left, as you are, with the desperate hope of dragging down Obama's negatives. Never has a candidate with so much advantage failed so dramatically since Dewey.


But you have company if you link back to the producer of the youtube you link you can find this comment


crazyforcrowe| April 06, 2008
I haven't asked for your friend invite because you are a Hillary supporter, but because you have Obama figured out pretty damn well. I am a staunch conservative, voting for McCain in the general election, but hoping with people like you, we will be able to unearth more and more lies Obama loves to tell, and when all the truth is out, he'll be OUT! Now, I just have to convince you to come to the right!


You have done well in abandoning any pretense of winning and joining in full comradeship those whose tactics you have so perfectly mimicked, the Republicans.

107. THIS should be an OP...nice find!
...and the Channel Comment poster you've cited is a classic example of the strange bedfellows that Hillary and her crowd have snuggled up to within the Republican Party -- the party that brazenly incites its own constituents, through Rush Limbaugh and HIS ilk, to vote for Hillary in the swing state primaries, because SHE's the one they hope to face in the General.

Really gives a new meaning to the old axiom: "Any Port in a Storm."

I can't imagine what it must feel like for an obviously passionate Hillary fanatic like Maddy to know that, a) not only is her candidate going to lose the nomination to Obama, but b) she will have allowed herself and her fellow Clintonians to be played like a juke-joint piano in the process...by the Rethuglicans.

Fortunately, this sideshow distraction will be over soon...and we Democrats, liberals and progressives can devote ourselves fully to the task of winning the White House and a super-majority in Congress. My hope is that Hillary supporters can buck up and answer their country's call when it counts.

But sometimes I wonder.

14. Interesting look at how these campaign themes and speeches all
resemble each other. The zeal and near worship of Obama by his supporters is frightening.

To be honest, I suspect that whoever wins the presidency is facing such huge manufactured problems courtesy of Bush and the GOP that they will inevitably become a one term president so I'm not sure that winning the nomination and the presidency this year is such a great thing.

Tonight's Bill Moyers Journal had a very impressive young lady, Leila Fadel who is a bureau chief in Iraq. Excellent interview which covered both her from-the-ground-level view of both Iraq and Iran. Apparently she is also answering questions online after the show which you should be able to access.

It hasn't been posted yet but if you haven't ever seen him, you can watch the show on the internet later at

63. She's losing. Wake up. She can't possbily take this nomination.
Have you always been separated from reality, or is this a recent event?

Clinton needs to win a forbidding 65 percent of the delegates in the remaining primaries to draw even with Obama in pledged delegates. It's a share she has achieved only once so far, in Arkansas, where her husband was governor for more than a decade.

Analysis: Time, delegate math working against Clinton

60. It's actually a great Video showing that Obama's Message for Hope and Change is Old.......
and hacked up by his campaign manager. I thought this was a Democratic site for Dems Only...and as far as I know, there are still TWO CANDIDATES who are running. Having listened to so much Obama Oppostition Research on Hillary, it's good to see a little on Obama, even if there are only about five Hillary supporters who can take the "slings and arrows" to post on this site anymore.

I thought the video compilation was good. It brings alot into focus about Obama. He's running as a Preacher..hoping to pick more for his flock.

I thought we'd been there and done that with Evangelical Preachers but it's interesting our Dems figured that the best way to defeat the RW is to find one of our own. It's a good watch.

And I'm not even an Obama supporter.

For reasons of pure mercy, I'm hoping this is all over by next week.

57. Nope
I support Obama because he is far superior to Clinton in every way.

She wouldn't be able to change diddly squat about the way things are done in DC - because she doesn't want to. She has no problem with the way things have gone down. She wants to maintain the status quo.

Clinton I didn't change diddly squat during his time - he totally caved and moved to supporting Repub policies.

From my POV - it's the people who are supporting a second go round of Repub policies rammed through by a woman with a D after her name that have been hoodwinked and baboozled.

67. This darned Vido...is kind of sticking with me all day. I'm worried about how Repugs will use it...
because it's worrysome enough for me as a Dem...worrying about living with the RW Evangelicals who took over the Repug Party...and now we Dems think that if we "find our own Evangelical" we can "CANCEL OUT THE REPUGS and RELIGIOUS RIGHT' and their invfluence for over TWO DECADES?

I sometimes realize I'm living in a "WARP UNIVERSE" here in AMERICA THESE DAYS! But..the little hope I ever have is dashed by seeing something like this. WE DEMS NEED TO "BECOME THEM" to "DEFEAT THEM?"

When did a Party Platform with goals about our beliefs become subservient to EVANGELICAL DEMS..with POLITICAL MISSION? :shrug: :eyes: :crazy:

70. That was a "hard call." Obama does have a "delightful sense of humor" and
I wouldn't put it past him...to have put "three fingers up" to leave it for the rest of us to "decide."

I'm not saying it's bad...it's just that he "gets" the "humor" of those who will be going to the polls for him in PA. If "silent flip of the bird" is what he needs to do...he will do it. I think it could be innocent, though. But...it does strike me as "maybe" a little suspicious... with those "three fingers."

:shrug: I'll leave it up to the PUBLIC to decide....

Yeah, Other people have used the same rhetoric as Barack Obama, what is that supposed to mean to me?

He is a good speaker and he inspires people. Hillary doesn't. She is a shitty politician who drives people away in addition to exemplifying all the usual negative stereotypes about politicians.

Who do you think I'd still rather have as my president?

84. Hillary has co-opted many of Obama's, and more so Edward's, messages, this campaign
she is much more so the shape shifter, she doesn't even have her own message.

I've been here six years. What on earth makes you think I'd even consider leaving DU.

You'll be gone long before I will.

That's my prediction, based on similar circumstances I've seen in the past at DU.

103. Well, the question I'm asking, Maddy, is will you support Obama
when he is nominated.

That's all. Skinner said the sniping and negative stuff had to end when the nominee is chosen.

The question is a gut check. I had to ask myself the same question about Hillary before I asked anyone the question about Obama.

I ask that specific question to people I feel might be too hateful towards Obama to see if this a situational thing - heat of the moment or whether they REALLY dislike Obama.

Are you going to get behind the candidate the Democratic party nominates??

I find it very interesting that you predicted my removal based on a simple, reasonable question.

:patriot:

I simply responded to the OP on the level that I felt her post warranted.

BTW, was I also ignorant when I strongly supported John Edwards in both '04 and this year? (I simply support Obama over Clinton.) You shouldn't personally insult people you don't know all that well. It makes you look like an asshole.

111. Hmmm...I guess between that and falling for someone...
...who deliberately lies about coming under Bosnian sniper-fire in an attempt to pad her resume, and who poisons the party well for the General Election by lavishing videotaped praise upon the GOP candidate and practically writing his ad copy for him...I guess I'll have the sloganeering, thanks.

At least it's uplifting.
