		<description>Yes, but it unfortunately is probably inevitable in this country:  Men of color had suffrage over 100 years before women of any color/race, a man of color will become President of the U.S. long before a woman ever will.

Nothing has changed, there has been no progress.  How sad.


As for Clinton bashing by Democrats, it&#039;s everywhere.  Democratic Underground ought to change their name to Obama Underground.  Talk about eating your own!
What IS it with this Dem. cult of personality craziness?  It&#039;s getting as bad as the aggressive fanaticism the  early Republicans had for Dubya.
It&#039;s downright disturbing.

And the way some supposed Democrats treat other of their party is shameful.  For the first time in my life I&#039;m starting to think of leaving the party, these aren&#039;t people I&#039;m proud of being in the same group with.</description>

		<description>I was banned by DU; and then I started to boycott Dailykos, recently. Being flamed at DU, basically was a way of life for me --especially when I initiated the controversial tsunami HARRP theory. 

I think it would help people to  understand that &quot;ultra liberalism&quot; does not mix well with the Republican  Party or the Democratic Party –just at it did not mix well with the Nazi party.,.. read about Franz Jägerstätter, in Germany whom was beheaded by the Nazis because he refused to join the Army. 

And, he was very unpopular in Germany – so with Limbaugh equating liberalism with the Dem&#039;s was and is  a great disservice to the English language, because most of the people at Dailykos or DU, etc., are not liberal Democrats, they are simply Democrats.

JFK was a liberal Democrat, but what made him a great president was that he had the fundamental skill of a liberal, which is the ability to face difficult issues (Courage) – todays liberals; again are not liberals evidenced by the fact the 99.9% of Liberal Dem&#039;s are to afraid to call themselves liberals, by even uttering the word liberal. 

Thus, if they are to afraid to utter the word liberal , they would then be to afraid to utter the great principles of liberalism.</description>

		<description>I left off reading (I&#039;m a lurker) Kos quite a while ago, then Aravosis, Huffpo, and many others.  Now that the ugliness has been exposed (and not countered by the moderators), I will not be going back, even after the general election.  I don&#039;t need the left-wing version of Free Repulbic, thanks.</description>

		<description>OK, nuff said by all of you. The point&#039;s been made. 

BloggerBoyz just cited some very good examples of the HC policy I mentioned, but LJ should call DK on this whole issue and resolve it. Period. 

Striking another blogger&#039;s site (ANY other progressive blogger) just fans the flames and can&#039;t you just imagine Carl and Rush and Sean and Billo with their cheshire cat grins while we Democrats self destruct on negativity?

We need to wake up, smell the coffee and force the issues upon the candidates while removing the character assaults on all sides. Homey don&#039;t play that. Not this year, not ever.

Thanks for listening.</description>

		<description>Something that occurs to me, if DKos was an employer what he is allowing would be called a hostile work environment. It&#039;s sexual harassment. 

I&#039;m an employer and if I allowed harassment, intimidation, or personal attacks because of someones race or gender, I could be sued. Especially if my lack of action allowed a hostile workplace to continue and caused people not to want to come to work.

I&#039;m not suggesting any lawsuits, LOL. I just think it&#039;s important to acknowledge that this kind of stuff is serious and damaging and that we&#039;ve tried to pass laws protecting people from it. It&#039;s part of the Civil Rights Act.

So a strike is quite appropriate.</description>

		<description>Half-black.... why is that never mentioned? I mean, for crying out loud, he was raised by his mother and grandparents in Hawaii. He was a mulatto kid in an environment filled with native Hawaiians his color. He saw his father twice in his lifetime. So how is he sociologically and culturally connected to the black community? He&#039;s not! The hysteria coming out of the community is one of perception, of the belief that he&#039;s one of us. 

Well, one of us wouldn&#039;t be so casual about stoking the racist flames, knowing full well there&#039;s a lot of work to be done and the last thing we need is for racism not to be taken seriously. He has fanned the flames not for the purpose getting a meaningful dialogue going on racial issues, but simply because he wants to be POTUS. And he&#039;ll do ANYTHING to get elected.

I&#039;d have more respect for him if had stood his ground about the comments Wright made dealing with how blacks feel in terms of discrimination. (I do feel the 9/11 remarks are unforgiveable along with a minister using &#039;God Dammned in any context.) But Obama threw Wright under the bus when he was backed into a corner. I wonder how long it&#039;s  going to take for blacks to realize that he&#039;ll do the same to us?

I never bought into this bi-racial candidate ever! And he&#039;s proving me right!</description>

		<description>What about going on Olbermann or a friedly kiss up the day after he compared Obama to Hitler and failing to rebuke him? Yeah, I was skeptical, but I&#039;ve got to grant you that&#039;s all tending to tear this party apart.</description>

		<description>Can you give an example or more of her &quot;scorched earth&quot; tactics? Still the mean mean meanest ever seen ad? Going to PA blaming Michelle, as the last Democratic President, for their economic problems? Having her campaign urrogate Bradley on MTP accusng Michele of being a crook with a corrupt admin?  That would be a bit divisive, I&#039;ll grant you that. Democrats hate that.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;but they just ignore it and keep repeating their bs.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Dick Cheney and crew fight a middle east war, you&#039;re saying, just as thick, and just as incompetent.

They are so psychologically screwed up (and I wanted to say, F, but I didn&#039;t strawberry, !) they make a psy ops dream.

They should be nowhere NEAR the Presidency of America.

Remember Oliver North?

They&#039;re like that, but not as smart.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Good fricking lord, is there no shame? &lt;/blockquote&gt;

It&#039;s a psy ops tactic, the dirty rotten bastards club.

&quot;They&quot; (RNC stooges) think it makes them look tough, but they think a lot of things, none of which are true.

Which should explain the losses, despite their arrogance.</description>
