You wanna know what I think???
heres what I think of GD P lately....

Whether the post is positive, there are some who will critique
it for not being positive enough or out right negative towards
the post and poster.

This is the one that gets to me...

Whether the post is negative there are those who will critique it
for not being negative enough or positive....get that, critiquing
a negative post for not being negative enough. :-)


What has happened to DU....:shrug:

1. Your post isn't negative enough.

9. Back at ya!
:fistbump:

It's pretty interesting, the way we all peck at each other's levels of outrage or approval, as the case may be.

Not unlike Soylent Green, DU is made of PEOPLE, and damned, people can sure be funny!

2. I think I know what you are saying...
But when you say "Whether", might you mean "When"?

5. We are experiencing the first Dem president as DU
So everyone is hyper sensitive? Maybe, Y/N?

It's too much for me to handle! :crazy:

15. I just laughed all day about Cheney having to swear in a bunch of Dems and our next VP
so that made me be in a better mood.

17. I wish I had caught the whole unedited ceremony on CSpan, but I missed it
Yes, good times.

I might need to stalk CSpan the entire weekend so I can see the whole thing!!

6. I think it is the massive frustration of the past 8 years combined with overly high expectations
(really, hopes). It is idealism colliding with realism. Obama is not superman. He is as great as we are going to get. And I suspect most of us here are trying to deal with the very complex mood swings and emotions and frustrations around all of this.

The country - the world...really is quite FUBAR!

8. Like the mood swing part
but we can have a constructive discussion without going after each other
and every post just because a gramma is missing or sentences are not
constructed properly or the subject/topic is not to our liken.

11. Yes, agreed - I've cut my posting significantly because of exhaustion
of someone or another snarking away at something. That's OK - I read here, learn a lot...and it just reminds us all of how high the stakes are, and that we will need to continue our fight unabated. Winning the White House and having majorities in the House and Senate will not make the assholes on the right go away!

13. I agree with what you said
I understand people's right to express concern or disagreements but he's not this perfect man that will bring world peace. But I do believe he will help turn this country in the right direction and helps many americans along the way.
