GD-P is toxic
I'm not sure I can stand it much longer. It has been downright awful today.

1. yeah, it's crazy, and pretty hopeless to respond
there are some Obama people that are annoying also.

i'm going to either try to avoid the forum or at least avoid some of the threads.

if you really look you notice it tends to be the same few assholes.

2. You're always welcome to hide out here
We've got a cozy little hidey-hole. :hide:

3. Last few days have been even worse
Is there any safe place online to discuss the issues more reasonably? Dailykos is almost as bad these days.

15. other places?
I think I'm going to check in at Common Ground Common Sense, which is the board created after the Kerry board closed - unfortunately you have to join to post, but on first glance it seems to be alot calmer than here. I don't know of any other boards, though I'd be glad to know of any that exist that aren't so negative as this one is lately.

http://www.commongroundcommonsense.org is the address.

4. How about a concerted effort (quiet, of course)
to not reply to a couple who have been the most obnoxious posters? Let the other supporters OWN those posters solely?

Think we can get the word out on that?

No replies - don't even HIT on the threads. Waddya say?

8. Thanks...
I'm all hooked up, but I decided to do Maine. I'm on the east coast and I'm not sure about the time difference.

12. I had 110 on last week
When Edwards dropped out, I took a bunch off ignore and discovered a bunch who had been tombstoned. There are plenty of Obama "supporters" who are on my ignore too. Today is just crazy.

13. Ya beat me by 10!
I just counted - 100 even. My list is growing daily though. I'm using the hide thread option more too. We seem to be shouting past each other at this point more than anything. :-(

14. lol, oh I feel better
I thought it was just me. Some people are just so obvious that they've got nothing to say and have no purpose but to post disruptive cut 'n paste talking points.

11. I'm seeing post numbers in the thousands for people spewing some ignorant and evil shit
Have they been hiding or have they recently converted over to the dark side, or maybe have their accounts been hacked by some Clinton operatives?

I am starting to have some real serious questions about a large number of people here. I am not trying to be funny, nor am I striking back at people who dont like my posts.
