2. You use a piece of software called a "cundit blocker."

3. Someone posted a great tip the other day.
I'm using the Iceweasel flavor of Mozilla, so your's might not act exactly like mine:

1) Hit Ctl-f and open search
2) Type Coulter OR Spears (no quotes)
3) Select "Highlight All"

Start browsing posts, and skip the ones with highlights. I'm using it to help with faster, selective reading of the greatest page by searching, highlighting and ignoring "Primaries".

8. Nah, you're on "ignore"
Seriously, I pretty much stick to hard news posts. I've gone from Kucinich <-> Biden -> Edwards -> OMFG, so I'm staying away from the political posts. No need to spend all my time being angry.

9. And I didn't want to repost it as another OP
So I enhanced your jokey post with a good tip. I got the sarcasm, but it's kind of hard to tell lately with all the whining. If I see another distraught post about "what happened to DU" I'm going to answer it with "whining wimps. Stop wasting our time."

6. No one forces anybody to open or look at threads

10. Ann Coulter is a major Republican Commentator
She's clearly insane, but we should keep her front and center lest people start falling into the illusion of thinking we can work with those guys.
