Congrats Obama supporters! You put Jonah Goldberg on DU's greatest page!

You should all be oh so proud!

:puke:

They are not signed.

Just explaining where the poster may have been coming from.

I am guessing they rec'd the thread as well.

That Jonah Goldberg was posted on DU at all is embarrassing.

I mean Jonah Fucking Goldberg?

praises hillary, keep that in mind...

Is that all?

You can't complain about one side doing it and turn a blind eye to other side doing it.

Personally, I think it sucks that anyone for any candidate would feel it necessary to use shit like that, but what do I know?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3602459

Feel free to let me know when a Hillary supporter uses an outright rw source to attack another Dem candidate and I will let them have it.

it's hypocritical to complain about an opponent using a RW source when your side does it too if it suits you. Really, no one should use the RW sources, but we don't make the rules do we?

You're demanding perfection, while saying nothing about the many others using rw propoganda.

junky you damn well know it.

Just one, and unlike you, I don't let rw bs pass by me without a comment

The Clinton camp placed comments from her and Obama on her web site, HillaryHub.com, and provided a link to an opinion article written by conservative Charles Krauthammer that described "how the grizzled veteran showed up the clueless rookie."

So you see, I guess right sources aren't so bad after all. :shrug:

I look forward to you letting all these posters, and especially Hillary herself, "have it".

and one was started by a Hillary supporter I've managed to complain about at least twice

And as far as the website goes, all candidates do shit like that. Many an Obama fan has posted about his appeal to repukes, so let's not go there.

On the other hand, maybe we should. I'll leave that up to you

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=3126154The

Now, the first DU link in my last post is by Tellurian, a hardcore Hillary supporter.

The second one is by wyldwolf, a hardcore Hillary supporter (let the link load...it goes to a post WITHIN the thread, not just the thread itself).

The third is also wyldwolf.

The new one above that I meant to post the first time is by durrrty liberal, also a hardcore Hillary supporter.

As for Hillary using it on her website, it's funny that you can forgive a candidate themselves using a right wing source to prop themselves up by attacking someone else, but an anonymous poster on the internet doing it bothers you.

In your desperation to spin this you're just making yourself look very hypocritical.You should be bothered that anyone uses this crap, not just those you don't like.

There are close to a dozen threads started by Obama in the last two weeks. You had to go back more than half a year to fine ONE by dl.

As far as the other two go, I have admonished both of them.

"As for Hillary using it on her website, it's funny that you can forgive a candidate themselves using a right wing source to prop themselves up by attacking someone else, but an anonymous poster on the internet doing it bothers you."

I didn't say it is OK. However, all of the candidates do it. Criticizing one for it means criticizing them all, and I don't make a habit of criticizing all dems.


"In your desperation to spin this you're just making yourself look very hypocritical.You should be bothered that anyone uses this crap, not just those you don't like."

I'd say going back to February is the sign of desperation here. There's been about half a dozen rw threads by Obama supporters in the last few days, and you want to make them seem comparable. You're the desperate one

It's wrong for them to do it, and that's what THIS thread is about.This thread is about using RW sources to attack or defend one of our candidates.It's the goddamn topic we're discussing.I will assume from now on that you'll never bring up anything against any candidate that's past your own personal expiration date for relevance.

I didn't say it is OK. However, all of the candidates do it. Criticizing one for it means criticizing them all, and I don't make a habit of criticizing all dems.

Strawman, not all candidates do it, and you not being asked to criticize all Dems...just the ones that do this, and you keep making excuses for it while complaining about supporters doing it.

You're not very good at this cuke.

I think nearly all the people on this thread agree it's wrong to post rw garbage. In addition to making that point, the OP also makes the point about the quantity of Obama posters using rw spew.

And yes, all candidates do it. The only ones who don't are the ones who don't have anyone to quote.

And nothing from you about the great disparity between the few Clinton supporters using the occassional rw link as compared to the daily use by Obama supporters. You can disparage me all you want, but you can't hide the fact that Obama supporters do this on a daily basis.

I don't like the Obama people doing it, and I don't like the Hillary people doing it.The disparity has fluctuated back and forth here, not just in this election cycle but in everyone I've seen here since I arrived in '01.People see the attacks on one side and get pissed, but tend not to see the same thing being done by those they agree with.

The only ones who don't are the ones who don't have anyone to quote.

Or maybe they have some integrity left. :shrug:

but the proof is in this thread.

I found several threads posted in just the last week. You had to search back more than half a year to find just one. You say "one is too many" while a steady stream of right wing garbage flows past you, and you do nothing about it but cheer it on

I'd tell you not to be stupid but I'm starting to think that's your default mode.You're the one ignoring examples, not me.You're the one making excuses, not me.


Try tuning in to Sanity FM sometime.

:hi:

Keep trying.

I wish you could say the same (and be telling the truth)

Still waiting for proof that I "cheer" them on.Let's see some of that vaunted honesty. :eyes:

I think it was dumb for the campaign to link to it.

I think it was dumb of WW to cite Brooks. I think it was dumb for Tellurian to cite Krauthammer.

I think its loathsome that someone would post Jonah Goldberg's trash and embarrassing that Hillary haters rec'd to the greatest page.

and when I see those threads, I post in them regardless of who is being slammed. I would have thought that fighting the right wing was something we could all agree on, but obviously not

I agree with everything you just said.

I thought you were a stand up person all along, and you didn't let me down. :thumbsup:

You're usually more restrained than this...Relax. It's not like we're gaining in the polls or anything.

I don't even remember clicking on the the thread, much less voting for it. I saw his name and I had no interest in it.

Thanks for lumping us all together.

:puke:

I avoid hitjobs on other candidates.

Nice to have another "fighter" on the team

I've ignored some Obama bashing threads because my comment would've kept the thread going.

And when asked about it, they say they believe the right wing propoganda.

The "Hillary curses" story

The "Hillary is fundie" story

The story the OP refers to

The poster who obsesses about The Clenis

All done by posters who support Obama

do a search

You can't handle the proof.

Search for "Socks". You'll find the thread

Search for "curses". You'll find the thread.

Or is that too much work?

to the extent you claim.

Nor is Indiana Green. I address the third one in my response below, and the fourth is the one this thread is about.



Edit: Changed last sentence from: "and the fourth is this thread." to "and the fourth is the one this thread is about."

the one who started it. In fact, I was told, if you read the responses, it was a dupe.

BTW, did you notice the thread that showed how Obama also used Drudge?

Or is it OK when Obama does it?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3632812

it's a positive story.

And do you see me making any judgments about what is posted?

Are you now claiming you did it in support of HRC?

Drudge-Lewinsky connection.

I believe you

and used the NY Times' headline.

posted in wrong place

That's the problem with this thread, the OP calling us ALL out over what some other supporters do on a regular basis.

I never even read those threads because I don't give a damn about some cat.

I could easily start a thread about Hillary supporters, but not all Hillary supporters act like assholes like the few I've come across here.

but more than I have ever seen for any candidate before on DU.

"I never even read those threads because I don't give a damn about some cat."

IOW, you do nothing while others pollute DU with right-wing propoganda.

"I could easily start a thread about Hillary supporters, but not all Hillary supporters act like assholes like the few I've come across here."

Every side has it's occassional asshole, but a day doesn't go by where at least one Obama supporter posts right wing propoganda. If I were an Obama supportor, I'd be very embarrassed by that, and I wouldn't just let it happen.

That doesn't mean I have to spend all my time on here searching for bashing threads just to defend other candidates.

And I have defended Hillary on several threads.

Instead of going around accusing people here of "doing nothing", you might want to get your damn facts straight.

I'll try to be more careful with my wording. I will describe "some Obama supporters"

responses are saying that the article is crap. The second is from an Obama supporter, but like the first, most of the responses make fun of the article. The third is posted as a joke.

and you seem OK with it. You even do it yourself

You should be very proud

I do not post from RW sites. Period.

Throwing around unfounded allegations; you should be very proud.

and Obama has done the same thing, but you have no problem when Obama does it.

doing whatever she wants with Drudge, and Obama, and Edwards, etc. It is a strange connection, though.

The fake outrage is sure deep in here today.

The first being a shameful rehash of a Hannity/Boortz story.

the mods and admins will remove anything that is nothing more than a flamefest thread against a democrat candidate. The thread won't be deleted, but that crap shouldn't be on our homepage.

I'm tired of anti-hillary people trying to hijack DU

...now go ahead and start another two or three hundred HRC Inevitable Triumphalist posts m'kay?

:eyes:

:shrug:

One example?

shouldn't you be out looking for work instead of following people around?

keeping my mother from dying

He basically praised her for having a fine hand on the tiller, but no moral compass at all.

oh wait ....

nevermind

This site is rapidly becoming a parody of itself...

I'm waiting for threads inviting us to Sean Inanity's "Stop Hillary Express"...
