At least we would be fighting them.

Modern humans instinct when online is to fight. That mindset was especially obvious during the Primaries.

Let's let the enemy in here. Otherwise we will just continue to demonize and devour ourselves.

I hate this place now.

1. Try hanging out in the Lounge.
The people are friendly and don't have their panties in a perpetual wad.

5. Actually, you are
fighting them. Read the posts carefully and let your common sense and some googling show you the way.

25. There is more Obama bashing in the new GDP than there was in the old GDP.
I understand some people are upset. I am a bit, too. But some of the stuff I see on here is absolutely ridiculous. It looks more like FR than DU. I haven't been coming here nearly as often as I used to. It is too sad and frustrating.

11. If you can't support the nominee, maybe you need a new forum to visit.

22. you certainly seem to be going out of your way to agitate against Obama.
Funny, I'm not even on DU that much yet a couple of posters stand out as doing nothing more than agitating.

23. yes and I wonder if Senator Obama should actually win

24. But he must do what each person believes in at DU 100%, or else
we'll just stay home and not vote so we can gripe about McCain and his three more supreme court judges, his various middle eastern wars, his burgeoning deficit, his tax breaks for the rich, & his corporate-written policies, and yell about how life would have been SOOOOO much better had we all been behind insert (Edwards/Clinton/Richardson/Biden/Dodd/Kucinich) who, of course, would have agreed with each persons opinion on each issue on DU. :-)
