2. x3. This is supposed to be the Democratic UNDERGROUND so why
are some members (trollodites notwithstanding) and clearly Naderites or Kucinich-fans so asinine in their criticism of a DEMOCRATIC President??

3. Beats me.
I don't get it at all. Especially when it states clearly in the rules, "Constructive criticism of Democrats or the Democratic Party is permitted. When doing so, please keep in mind that most of our members come to this website in order to get a break from the constant attacks in the media against our candidates and our values. Highly inflammatory or divisive attacks that echo the tone or substance of our political opponents are not welcome here."

Very little of the criticism is constructive --most is in the form of plain attacks-- yet they are allowed to continue to post.
:wtf:

6. They are given a very generous leeway
To a point where it goes very far. There seems to be no limit of criticizers from the left.

7. They actually think that they are "holding his feet to the fire"
Yeah, on an internet message board :rofl: As if Obama is going to read what anyone here says. So why bother with the shit-flinging here? :shrug:
