Poll question: Will Dean Vote for Shrub if he doesn't get the nomination?
Answer, OF COURSE NOT. Sheesh. Neither would Clark, or Kerry, or Graham, or Edwards, or Braun, or Dennis the K, or any of the other Dems. (I am not so sure about Leiberman or Sharpton tho)


Clark/Dean in 2004!

Save your puke for something that's actually offensive.

6. Then why isn't in the Lounge?

The initial post statement lacks humor and has flame overlays. The poll has it's moments but the humor is drowned out by the initial post.

It's just like Hannity! Trigger words, flame titles posted by Clarkies who could of used Clark instead of Dean.....There was a choice.

7. Because
I wanted to amke a point. I thought all those flame bait polls about Dean and Calrk and their supporters were over the top. No Democratic candidate (maybe not even Lieberman) is so far to the right that they'd vote for Shrub. Asking if Dean, or Clark, or whoever would end up voting for Shrub is a SILLY queston, there it deserved mostly silly answers...

8. Oh for heaven's sake
leave it be. This is actually one of the funnier posts I've seen in a while. It does no good to be so defensive that one takes umbrage at even the most innocent of posts.

11. I agree, I think there are a lot of DUers that really need
to lighten up when it comes to things like this. We can't be gloom and doom all of the time, and it's really annoying that, in threads like this, there will inevitably be someone with absolutely no sense of humor at all, and with an overinflated sense of importance who will throw a wet blanket over everything. I'm getting really tired of that.

Worse yet, they're usually pretty thin-skinned and go running to the moderators whenever someone tells them to lighten up. I had a post removed last week on the Inside the Freeper Lounge thread because I told a poster who was throwing cold water over everything and being a total pill to lighten up and let us have some fun.

9. Perhaps you should report it to a moderator
... and have a cup of herbal tea. It was in response to some other stupid polls and it makes a better point than either of them.

14. A Clark supported deliberately
Edited on Mon Sep-22-03 10:43 AM by liberalnurse
attatched Dean to *bush.....I do not find it appropriate nor in "good fun." Like I said, the poster had a choice, why not say Clark instead of Dean if it was to be so funny?

16. umm
because a Dean supporter already MADE a poll about Clark and Bush. Guess you missed the Clark/Dean line at the bottom, huh. I happen to like both.

19. That too is extremely offensive.
Edited on Mon Sep-22-03 10:48 AM by liberalnurse
Even if Clark does have a history of voting republican for past Presidents, he has come aboard as a democrat and deserves a break.

Plus, this is the first time I saw the pruner post. I would of addressed that too.

18. And if he'd used Clark, someone
else would be on his case asking why he didn't use Dean! I understand why you may not like this thread, but there's a solution to that. Just don't click on threads like this, or don't keep reading them if you click on a thread you don't like.

5. It's called "sarcastic humor",
and we're just having some desperately-needed fun. I especially enjoyed the "Butterfly Ballot"question. I have no doubt that the BFEE will be pushing for those to be used everywhere.

I believe that Lieberman, however, being the repuke-lite that he is, would probably vote for Shrub. Especially if Dean is the nominee, he'd be particularly spiteful.

20. Woodrow?
you are not a real Dem, you should be purged from the party, your feet smell, your nose runs, your are short, bald, and you live with your mother, who still dresses you funny.

Oh...wait...strike that, reverse it. I meant "I'm not a real Dem, I should be purged..." etc...

err..Hmmm.

Well. Nice post!
