16. to whoever replied

I have your sorry ass on IGNORE

[FrenchieCat]

17. Good.

Then I can tell you to kiss this ass of mine of which you speak of.

[MadBadger]

25. Skittles taste like shit

[damonm]

21. OK, this should be entertaining...

How is it "worship" when I see what is happening and poll data backs up that conclusion?

[rvablue]

23. Skittles, I am asking this in all sincerity and not as snark...

What is accomplished by hurling the word "worshiper" at other DUers?

Isn't this a meme they use on RW sites?

What good can come from it?

So what if there are picture threads (I've posted a couple) and some "rah-rah" posts. I think it's a necessary part of the healing process after the trauma of the past 8 years. If you disagree, why not just hide them or ignore them?

My questions are sincere. If you do in fact have an argument as to why hurling "worshiper" at other DUers is effective and reasonable I'd like to hear it.

There are few on here who won't tolerate one word of criticism. I think they are well known.

But tossing this "worshiper" crap around accomplishes nothing. It divides us and lowers the level of discourse.

I wish you would reconsider next time you want to use it.

Aren't we all happy Obama is President and hopeful that many, if not all, of the mistakes of the past 8 years that have left us in this mess, might be reversed?

6. See #3 - sigh right back atcha.

[leftstreet]

8. Yes, yes I know. Obama is far too clever for us to understand

Got it.

[damonm]

12. Too clever for YOU, maybe...

But if I can understand this - I'm no brain surgeon - it's patently obvious.
The repukes don't get it - their mindset won't allow them to see it.

[FrenchieCat]

9. You must mean......

[damonm]

11. Yup. Exactly.

10. Barack Obama has great power at his command ....

His political currency shouldn't be squandered in namby pamby 'battles' with the republican 'Don Quixote's' on Capitol Hill who would rather joust with windmills than heal the nation's deep wounds ...

Im with Depakid (A highly respected DUer) - Use that power, and stop pussy footing around by playing rope-a-dope with the numbskulls who caused all this dislocation, frustration and heartache ....

Obama is amazing and wonderful, and he would be even more amazing and wonderful if he kicked some republican ass outta the way of progress ...

[damonm]

13. Locked in the Rovian paradigm, I guess...

We're into "Ghandian Hardball", as Hendrik Hertzberg's called it.
He IS kicking republican ass - he's just making rethugs do it for him.

[Solomon]

18. You see it as squandering political capital and I see it as

building political capital. I still can't believe the shortsightedness around here. Even after success is demonstrated by his tactics.

[depakid]

19. It's time

Democrats (and all good people around the world) have enough dry powder to ski on for several seasons.

Barack Obama won this election flat out- and it's time to put away the tired notions of bipartisanship with those who'd only see us fail. I mean look at these folks. Berefit of rational ideas- every day brings some new pettiness to the forefront via cable "news" or AM radio.

Enough already.

The far right Republicans and their enablers aren't going quietly- but go they must, if we're going to start fixing the mess they've wrought.
