(5,668 posts)however I know Donald will use that and likely point out so and so connections so if it's not said, and he comes up with the BS and we don't know about it so we can counter it. he could end up winning and I sure as f**k don't want that. He crossed said line long ago. I've only stated who I won't vote for. and thats just one person. I will continue to vote for all the others with D or Left leaning people Congress on down. and what Bernie wants is for us to change bottom up. I don't think he even imagined he'd be in the race but I think when say in DU the Hillary people started banning people they didn't agree with. That struck a nerve and Hillary had already been doing that. So healing? First think I'd think would go is for the Hillary supporters here to unban people for awhile and set up some system of having warnings before ultimately banning someone. However this brings me to something you said Skinner " And also we are not going to feature discussion threads on the DU homepage if they are posted in the General Discussion: Primaries forum, or in either of the two primary candidate supporters' groups. We are no longer interested in featuring the most divisive content on the front page of this website. " that would help behind words. Fairly sure I've been banned outright because I responded to so and so's group thinking it was general discussion. Like all the cliche'd old jokes about walking into a gay bar and not knowing it X_X although if I walked into a room of Republicans I sure wouldn't prove them right. I'd get right in for a chat. I'm trying to stave off a clinical depression brought on by not being employed since Oct 20 2008 (yeah before Obama was elected and partially brought on by a dad who said mom and i were going to hell for voting for. thus 2009 was pure hell. name calling every day of every week of every month of every year all because some marriage couselor decided he wanted to try Psychiatry and almost got legally in trouble for operating w/o a license. Summer 2009... the Psychs, my Psychs have yet to fix that problem. 7 yrs later something akin to I use people for my own needs and drop them dead when I don't need them anymore thus to dad I'm the most selfish person alive except I've got to hell and back thinking he desperately needs a dog for his health. I still think this because 2 years ago he osconded a dog wandering around (lost dog) had him for about 6 hours till neighbors went calling for him. Pip? oh LOTR Pippens okay Mary. (sp) But I say this so that people understand why I can get irate sometimes.
These are my views. You can't change them however you can prove me wrong. That may or may not make sense. ie I have views... it's up to whoever to prove me wrong.. Yes I have panic attacks. I also come from a rather conservative faith background. So somewhere between Lutheran and George Carlin , rare to get offended unless it's something faith based.
I wish Liberals the best of luck. Using any other word just won't work this year. Maybe another year but again my opinion.
