[roguevalley]

[NatBurner]

15. word

[H2O Man]

16. Choices ....

We are all responsible for the choices that we make. For example, do we prefer to refer to John McCain as "McBush"? Or "McCheney"? A good case can be made for each of these choices. It would be sad if this devided the DU community.

[JuniperLea]

21. I prefer McSame

Or, John "Four More Years" McSame.

But I'm easy, and I wont' cry... no I won't kick a fuss.

[bigtree]

22. ha!

whatever we call him he's McToast.

I call for a unity response: McBushCheney

[CindyKay]

94. I Prefer

McINSANE the Dangerously Unstable & Obviously Unable ! If I was the Wife/Trollop I'd give him a real good :spank: too !

[SeaLyons]

[JuniperLea]

20. People all over DU ~ Join hands...

"People all over the world (everybody)/Join hands (join)/Start a love train, love train/People all over the world (all the world, now)/Join hands (love ride)/Start a love train (love ride), love train/The next stop that we make will be soon/Tell all the folks in Russia, and China, too/Don't you know that it's time to get on board/And let this train keep on riding, riding on through…" - The O'Jays

[goclark]

92. Let's all get on the Love Train

[goclark]

93. Duplicate ~ sorry

[bigtree]

23. kick

:kick: sorry about the 'whiney' threads

[SaveAmerica]

31. I don't think you need to apologize for any threads, you have your opinions and you get 3 threads a

day to air them. I don't think I've seen you use any to fling slurs or insults, I think your other threads today were a result of feeling in limbo. It's yo-yo time to be up and down in emotion like this, you know realistically that Clinton is not very likely to be our candidate but she had the big win, we know there's a very good chance that Obama is going to be our candidate but we can't really celebrate (although some are here and that might be adding to your feelings - it's strange that people who are usually celebrating/commiserating together are on opposite sides and against each other with the feelings.

[RazBerryBeret]

121. I know I've seen some awesome threads from you,

but I don't think I've ever seen a whiney thread from ya!

[bigwillq]

24. Unite. Unite. Unite.

:hug:

I think we all will when we have a nominee. No matter what our differences are, I think (I hope) we all want a DEM to win the WH this Nov. Let's make it happen.

[TheDoorbellRang]

This week is our second quarter 2008 fund drive. Democratic Underground is

[NewHampshireDem]

75. I WILL NOT HUG THE GROVELBOT!

[Warren DeMontague]

Grovelbot wants something more... unseemly.

[Hawkeye-X]

37. A little rat humor..

[Straight Shooter]

38. I really don't need a hug, but thank you for your kind spirit.

Your voice on DU has been like a sparrow in a thunderstorm, a sweet song in the midst of bellowing and bluster.

I'm just glad to get my life back. After 9 years of political intensity, I can now withdraw and turn my focus to many things I've been setting aside which really need my attention.

Namaste, bigtree. You're the best. :toast:

[me b zola]

112. I hope you stay involved in DU & the DP

I know that this is going to sound corny, but I have admired you and your posts for a long time.

Straight Shooter, you are a gem. DU and the DP are better for your presence and activism.

[Straight Shooter]

114. Wow. Thanks.

I love corny sentiments, and you have made my day, me b zola. The feeling is mutual. :pals:

[Kittycat]

39. Just another kick for BT & Unity

:grouphug: for my support of Obama as the best choice for the nomination for this time, for this election.

[bhikkhu]

53. Thanks. I was just thinking how proud I am of the whole party...

and looking forward to the election and the years to come. Nothing but good thoughts all around, an open heart and no fear.

[wvbygod]

[LowerManhattanite]

66. The aree abides...the tree abides... n/t

[JohnnyCougar]

67. Cheers!

Any divisiveness from me ends now. I liked, respected and defended Hillary when she was the frontrunner. She's had to put up with a hell of a lot of misogyny, and for that she deserves to win. As the campaign got more intense and my support for Obama grew, I posted a few divisive posts, and for that, I am sorry. But really, if the Democratic party wins, than we all win. We all support the same principles.

I don't want to rub it in. The Hillary supporters I have met are wonderful people, and they're passionate about their candidate, and I respect that. So I am sorry if my ego got involved in the debate, and I ask for your forgiveness.

[swishyfeet]

68. I'm with you

[Forkboy]

69. I'm a little to asocial for group hugs, but the gesture is awesome.

I'll just watch from a polite distance. ;)

Nice post. You're a good guy, and I look forward to McCain being in your sights. :thumbsup:

[Tinksrival]

70. Aw!

I really like you guys, especially you bigtgree!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5973114

[PretzelWarrior]

71. let's come together. we can be as one

[gateley]

72. 'Scuse me. Oops. Sorry. 'Scuse me. 'Scuse me.

*elbowing my way in*

Room for one more?

:grouphug:

And a big smackeroo for bigtree! :loveya:

[graycem]

So if I can manage from NZ ... you can do it!

:hug:

[dbmk]

89. Think it might be easier to drill a hole through the earth for this one:

A hug for unity! :grouphug: and a hug for Nance because she lead me to this thread. :hug:

[Lisa0825]

122. Sweet....

:grouphug:

I survived the Dean Scream... I hung on to the hope of Al running... and then I suuprted Edwards. Just so ya know... most of us have been there.... hell, we ALL have! We're Democrats after all! We've all felt the sting too many times to count in recent years.

[TK421]

123. After all this time....after all the vitriol that has been spewed and smear tactics

used by both campaigns...you still manage to break through that and offer a genuinely good-hearted post. Well, my hat is off to you, sir, and I can breathe a sigh of relief that it is indeed over....

I am not happy with the results, but my vote WILL go for the Democratic nominee, in any case...

It has been an ugly mess here ( especially in the past three months ) but I hear you loud and clear...McFuckhead must NOT enter the White House, and we have quite a battle on our hands until November. Hugs to you, too for a great post like this :hug:

[Aloha Spirit]

124. yay! let's all try to let the garbage sink today.

much love
