4. Look we know how you feel and we have heard your hate constantly
Your opinion means nothing. Please stop the sexist crap.

7. When I start being sexist you may have a point
I will not be afraid of using words like "shrill" or "catty" because you want to distract from the actual issues here.

3. It's been a pretty common theme around here for quite some time.
Doesn't seem terribly "progressive" to me.

11. Women often speak in a higher voice when they are trying to make their
point when among speaking among men - don't condemn her for that!

14. so should we use racially loaded language to describe Obama and Richardson?
If not, what is the difference? If so, when should I expect to see those threads?

16. I am African-American
So what's your point? You need to get over yourself. Clinton is not above being called catty. She is acting like a proven loser. Get over it....

18. So what would your reaction be if someone said something racial about Obama?
Incidently I am a male who would likely vote for Edwards if I had a vote. May primary so I don't.

19. Is there ever going to be a time when DU returns to sanity? STOP
with the personal attacks on our hardworking candidates. These people are giving up their lives to be our president...every single one of them could make big money doing something else, if that is their hearts' desire. You may temporarily prefer one over the other, but if you are truly committed to a new course and a Democratic president for many of us that will change inevitably.
