121. Veneble: the only person using inflammatory language on
Edited on Sat Dec-02-06 09:21 AM by Clark2008
this thread - or started using it - was an Edwards supporter.

I put that person on Ignore because it was hateful, venomous and resentful.

You're not doing that. I can understand that you see things differently and can respect and honest disagreement with no invectives, but, honestly, with an open mind, go back and read what that poster said - they're not on your ignore list - and contrast that to what most Clarkies were saying. Most Clarkies were laughing, joking and spurring along the OP teasingly. They weren't hateful or vapid.

BTW, isn't a thread putting down "Clarkies" actually a violation of DU rules? We could alert and complain, if you want to get techical, because the rules clearly state that DUers cannot put down other DUers - and, while the OP didn't point out specific posters, the OP clearly called out other DUers.

We didn't do that - I haven't done it and don't plan to - but an argument can be made that it's beyond the pale of the rules clearly stated.

I don't see any Clarkies (or otherwise) starting threads about The Cult of Obama or The Cult of Kerry or The Cult of Edwards. I don't think we would.
