Please help me congratulate Cha and Cary who I have made hosts of this group.

[stevenleser]

Congrats!

[In_The_Wind]

1. That's wonderful!

Thanks to both of you.

[lunamagica]

2. Congratulations to Cha and Cary!

[Cha]

49. Gracias, lunamagica

[Cary]

3. I am passionate about a Democratic victory

We have too much at stake.

[WheelWalker]

4. Democrats, we are a "GO" for Power Up.

K & R

[Jokerman]

5. Time to trash this group.

[JimDandy]

6. Well, there at least should be a rule that you can host only one group at a time.

[Jennylynn]

9. Agreed

[Cary]

11. I have never hosted before.

I hope that gives you peace of mind

[awoke_in_2003]

87. Congrats to you and Cha. nt

[Cha]

50. Why? I'm hosting the BOG, Hillary's Group, and now the Democrats.. I see no problem

hosting all three.

[Still In Wisconsin]

26. Exactly, because, you know, Bernie's not really a Democrat.

Just so you know...

[rock]

7. Congratulations Cha and Cary!

[Cha]

51. Hey Aloha, rock.. Mahalo!

.. I can see this one is going to be quite a busy job, too.

[awoke_in_2003]

88. Where do you find the time?

Congrats to you

[leftofcool]

8. They will be excellent hosts! Congrats guys!

[Cha]

52. Mahalo, leftofcool!

[mcar]

10. They, and you, will do a great job

[Cha]

65. Thank you, mcar~

[yardwork]

12. Congrats and thank you!

[Hortensis]

13. Thank you, all of you. I just subscribed.

[litlbilly]

14. Just the Hillary group with another name IMO

[Still In Wisconsin]

15. Banned! n/t

[litlbilly]

17. not yet but im sure I will be

[Still In Wisconsin]

19. OK let's run a little test: Hey mods- I think Hillary is a terrible candidate! Furthermore,

I am voting for Bernie Sanders!

[Cary]

21. If you want me to block you, just ask.

[Old Codger]

22. He too...

[Cha]

56. Our SOP says there will be NO Bashing of Hillary.

A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing.

I think you should self-delete your post.

Hillary is a great candidate for President!

[PaulaFarrell]

67. and no bashing of Bernie

Right?

[Cha]

69. Of course.

[Cary]

20. You ought to give yourself more credit than that.

It's very simple, really. You can do it if you wish.

And if you can't live up to the standards here why post at all?

[Cha]

57. The SOP says no "bashing" and we already have someone doing that.. I gave him

a chance to self delete.

I plan to take my job seriously here like I do my other hosting jobs.

"A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing."

[Cary]

18. Not true.

But it's interesting how you equate pro Democrat with pro Hillary.

[Still In Wisconsin]

25. Well... we shall see how long you allow Sanders supporters to remain here.

It will be interesting to see.

[still_one]

29. I don't think a poster will have issues as long as they follow the groups statement of purpose

"A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing."

I take that to mean that folks can discuss how the candidates, and Democrats differ on the issues, but in a respectful way.

[Still In Wisconsin]

30. If that's how it works, I agree.

But if a certain host sets her "ban" button on hair trigger and people are getting run for QUESTIONING her preferred candidate, then it will be no more than a second Hillary group. We shall see.

[still_one]

31. Obviously we will see. I think it is to seperate what is going on over at GD:P in order for

all Democrats, including Bernie's supporters to have a decent dialog, without anyone getting bashed by each other.

I would hope so.

[Still In Wisconsin]

33. That would, indeed, be a welcome addition.

I've taken a good amount of crap from fellow Bernie supporters for saying I will vote for Hillary in the GE, and I've been called a moonbat/idiot/bastard by Hillary's supporters. I've dished out a fair amount too.

[still_one]

34. We all have. I hope I am right

[Cary]

37. We are right.

[Cary]

35. So then stop trying to provoke me.

It's not necessary. It's not productive and it's not good faith.

I don't want to block anyone but I will if they can't accept the SOP that you just said you approve.

And further, I'm a guy. Cary, like Cary Grant. Exactly like Cary Grant.

[Still In Wisconsin]

38. Got it. I wasn't referring to you. You seem like a guy who wants to be provoked.

So, go ahead and ban me Cary. I'll live.

Sincerely, Bob. Like, um, Bob McKenzie, except not from Canada.

[Cary]

40. No, I don't want to be provoked.

Sorry to disappoint you.

[Still In Wisconsin]

41. Not disappointed.

Again, it's not you who I originally thought would be issuing scattershot bans to anyone who- um- disagrees.

[Cary]

42. You approve of the concept here

You have nothing to lose by trying to be a productive group member. I have nothing against you.

No trashing of any Dem. You're free to do that elsewhere if you must.

[Still In Wisconsin]

43. I agree. I have no idea why we are arguing.

It seems lately half of DU wants to kill the other half. Circular firing squad.

This could be a great group if it truly follows its own "charter."

[Cary]

44. I can only answer for me

I respectfully suggest that you not allow worthless Internet flakes to affect you. Life is too short.

You seem to me to be a good person, for what it's worth.

[Still In Wisconsin]

45. Thanks, so do you.

And, for what it's worth, I do allow myself to get swept up into internet shouting matches sometimes. Big waste of time and I know it...

[Cary]

46. Glad to know you, friend.

I've spent a lot of my life in Wisconsin. Hayward area.

[Still In Wisconsin]

47. I spent a good part of my summers up that way. Brother still lives up that way.

Good to know you, too.

[Cha]

61. Yes, you're talking about me as a host in the Hillary Group. And, you're Wrong.. I do not have

a "hair trigger" unless it's freaking obvious. there are many BS fans who came into our group and offered to self-delete so they wouldn't be blocked and we let them.

But, we don't have any patience with sanders supporters coming into our Hillary group.. you have the whole rest of the board to QUESTION my preferred candidate. It's for Hillary Supporters. Don't see why you all can't wrap your head around that.

The BS group blocks anyone in a NY second too.. who is not a supporter or even those who are who do not meet their standards.

Again, this is our SOP here.. NO bashing.

"A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing."

This group will be different than gdp.. because there will be no Hillary bashing.. no bashing of any kind.

We shall see.

[Still In Wisconsin]

73. OK, Cha...

Because I've already seen Bernie bashing and Bernie supporter bashing on other threads. It's been left there.

I personally expect that you will allow Bernie and his supporters to be bashed while banning anyone who questions Hillary.

I hope to be proven wrong.

[Cha]

75. I just got here and have only read this thread.. I haven't seen any BS bashing.. would

you like to give me the links and I will remind them.

Also I have to talk to Steven about what it is that is allowed here.. and he's on EST.

Thank you.

[Cha]

55. You can stay as long as you're not bashing Hillary. That's exactly how long.

[Still In Wisconsin]

74. "You can stay as long as you're not bashing Hillary. "

And how about if someone bashes Bernie?

Yup. Thought so.

[Cha]

76. That goes too. I just said that to you because you already posted that she "..was a terrible

candidate..".

[Cary]

80. This will work well if we make it work

That is we. All of us have to do our part and as you and I agreed it's worth trying.

[Still In Wisconsin]

83. I do agree. I trust you.

[awoke_in_2003]

91. Are you obtuse

or are you itching for a fight? Or are you going to be the first "martyr"?

[awoke_in_2003]

89. I am a Sanders supporter

The rules are pretty simple- don't bash democrats. Is that so difficult?

[Cha]

54. Yes, Hillary Clinton is a Dem and there will be no bashing of her in here. thank you.

[2pooped2pop]

79. obviously

[EileenFB]

16. Congrats!

[treestar]

23. Hey!

[Cha]

71. Hey Aloha!

:fistump:treestar~

[DemonGoddess]

24. WTG Cha and Cary!

[Cha]

66. Thank you, Celtic DemonGoddess!

[still_one]

27. Terrifc news Steve. Congratulations Cha and Cary

[Cha]

64. Yes, Yay.

lol Mahalo, stillone~

[2naSalit]

28. Woo Hoo! Congrats!!

Is this a new group?

[hrmjustin]

32. Congratulations! Nice to know we have a place to talk about Democrats without being ridiculed.

[Cary]

36. Yes.

Start a new thread. Let's support Democrats.

[Cha]

68. Indeed, Justin.. no ridiculing Dems in our Democrat Group! Quite the opposite~

[LAS14]

39. Great idea!

[murielm99]

48. Hey, congrats!

This is going to be great.

[Firebrand Gary]

53. Congratulations Cary and Cha!

[Cha]

59. Mahalo Gary! Our SOP!

A place where loyal Democrats can support our party, our candidates, and our elected officials, in a positive environment. No in-fighting or bashing."

[pugetres]

58. Another group to Trash...

[Cha]

70. No problem!

[Tarheel_Dem]

60. Congrats Guys!

[Cha]

72. It should be

interesting.

[riversedge]

62. Wise choices. Best to Cha and Cary.

[Cha]

63. We volunteered.. what could he do?

Mahalo rivers!

[Loki]

77. Excellent choice!

[Fuddnik]

78. I guess we'll get thrown out of this one as fast as the Hillarity Group.

[Cary]

81. Please try to make it work

And if you cannot find it within yourself to do so, simply post elsewhere. You have plenty of places to post scatology. You don't need to disrupt here

And I am not singling you out, this goes for everyone including me.

[Cha]

85. I'm getting tired of them whining about gettting Blocked from Hillary's Group.. they're not

her supporters so they have no business in there.

Hill supporters get blocked from the BS group as well they should.

So they don't need to act like they've been persecuted.

[Cary]

86. Some will, some won't, so what? Next.

I hear you Cha.

[treestar]

93. +1 that whine is so dumb Cha

[Cha]

84. Quit whining about the Hillary Group.. you're not a supporter so don't act like you belong there.

[treestar]

90. quit cryin'

we get thrown out of the Bernie Group.

[Gothmog]

82. Congratulations

[awoke_in_2003]

92. I don't recognize Cary

but Cha is one of my favorites. K&R

[NastyRiffraff]

94. Congrats to Cha and Cary!

They'll both be great hosts. Like Cary has said, let's make this work. We're all Democrats, we all want a Democrat in the White House and many in the Senate and House, as well as Governors and state legislatures. Whatever happens in the primary, it's vital for the country that a Democrat is elected. We all know what happens when Republicans are in charge; they're no longer interested in governing. Many hate government and try to undermine it at every turn.

We may disagree on candidates, but I want to believe we all want what's best for the country. And that means, Democrats in government.

[Doctor_J]

95. Irony alert

The author of my sig line is in charge of a group that prohibits insulting dems

[Cary]

96. Even more ironic,

you don't appear to have a sig line.

[JTFrog]

97. Admins remove offensive sig lines. n/t

[Cary]

99. Ironically.

[JTFrog]

98. My belated congrats! n/t

[misterhighwasted]

100. Steven Leser you have chosen wisely.

I may even venture out the front door of the Hillary Group & take a stroll to the Democrats Group.
Something about today... feels like Spring around here.

Thanks StevenLeser!

[NanceGreggs]

101. Two very fine choices! n/t

[Gothmog]

102. Good choices

Congratulations to Cha and Cary
