They sure are finding creative ways to say "Get Over It"

3. Bullshit!
I have not been on DU enough in the last couple of months to even know exactly what is going on here on DU, I know about Warren, but this is just bullshit. Your issues are not "pet" issues and should not be treated that way. I never trusted Obama and I think I was right judging from the little I have been reading. Damn. I can't understand why that is not understood by anyone with a brain or a heart or even just a sense of fairness.

8. Multiple olive branches:
Gates, Vilsack, Warren, dumping action on DADT, DOMA, and ENDA...

How many branches do the jagoffs need?

9. When does Obama reach out to the Democrats?
and the Democratic constituencies who, you know, kind of got him elected, gave him their votes, their time and all that money in millions of small donations?
That's what I want to know.

I didn't donate to this guy and vote for him so he could go chase the votes of people who hate me and want me dead.

11. Olive branch to the conservatives? Did we somehow lose the election?
I thought they were the bad guys and that winning was to make sure our ideas get priority and not theirs. There is no peace like victory. This is very confusing. Even since that guy-with-the-most-votes-loses thing in 2000, I have not been able to figure out politics.
:(
