66. Thank you for your response
I thought there would be a few people here from Salon,
ya right so what?
I am not challenging your feelings toward Bev.

BBV was a thread topic that was participated by many here, as well as other sites. That's why I posted the other link. This isn't an exclusive found only here at DU. Here's my point, and this isn't about you.

All the topics related to 9/11 terrorism get put in the basement threads. You know that, I don't know that everyone posting on DU knows that, since there are only a few people who post there.

When someone post something related to say the collapse of WTC7, suggesting it was a controlled demolition, 6 or 7 of the same posters jump all over it, mockingly, holding to the gov't/media story. Whether or not there is any validity to it is not the point.

"Tinfoil hat" or "conspiracy theorist" labels beat down anyone who has ideas or information that differs.

Why would someone want to post and get beat up? Maybe no one is there because they are sick of the same arguments.

Since you were at Salon, you might recall how similar this sounds when Greg Palast (excellent investigative journalist) was working on the theft in Florida. You could be following it, gathering information, then it would get derailed.
No names, lets call it ego. Some challenged ego, and it went on until people just stopped posting. It took too much time to read everything. It just became a waste of time.
Greg's book went onto be a best seller.

I saw where Bev said she stop be posting here, so maybe that will be satisfaction enough. I, like others, was hoping to follow it here.

Got a problem with this discussion?
No. Now that I know this is what it is about and will continue to be about until....
when those wronged have had their say
There are how many threads about this already?
Click on by.

Hmmm, a bit snarky.
As people see Michael Moore's movie, and start searching out the truth in it, wouldn't it be a shame to be discouraged here at DU before they even started? People want to help change this election.

You missed my point completely. Electronic voting is not the only way they stole the election. Absentee balloting in Florida was in the 90% returns (some counties 98% ballots returned) for all counties. Those ballots got counted in with the ones at the polls. The also got edited in some counties.
People at DU have said GOP friends admitted to voting twice.

The list goes on. Some information disappears, soon after it is published on the net, the more eyes the better.
