oh, and IBTL

THAT'S your sig line after starting a thread saying you're supporting Obama now? :eyes:

:)

I'm already in, are you?

would gain a positive response?

enough to support Obama.

:eyes:

...but you might consider that nobody here is your enemy. We all, ultimately, want the same thing...a Democrat in the White House.

I'd be pissed, too, if my candidate didn't get the nod (actually, my initial choice was Gravel, so I've been through that), but I realize the importance of a Dem as President and even if I had to do what I did in 2004 and support Kerry over Dean, I'd do it...I'd make it clear I was doing just that, but I wouldn't do anything to harm their chance at a win.

Goldcanyonaz, if you're interested in helping DU, that's great. If you're interested in helping a Dem gain the White House, that's great. I just want to say that there's never been a real difference between most Obama and Clinton supporters here aside from their choice of primary candidate.

It may sound patronizing, but it's not meant that way. We're all welcome to the battle.

er. we must win11

Hey, if you have to have to hold your nose to vote for Obama in November, I understand. I did the same in 2004 when I voted for Kerry.

can you be a little more clear? thanks.

I only responded because she's been here a while and she has the potential to be an asset to the Dem candidate. That choice is up to her.


Regardless, we have a Repub to fight. Let's start working on that.

I know that 4 years ago, I would have been pissed to have a Kerry supporter demand an answer from me.

We know that we've disagreed in the past. That will probably continue.

That doesn't mean that we don't both want what we think is best for our party.


If I did have an ignore list, you wouldn't be on it. I may not fight in the same way you do, but you do fight. I can respect the fight.

I would have liked to have seen Kerry fight for the election, even though I didn't believe in him any more than I believed a Dem was better than Bush...but we deserved that win.

:loveya:

...even if it doesn't always seem that way.

I'm really happy we had the chance to talk like this.

Seriously, my husband at my request changed the password of our paypal account because I donate too much here.

Not necessarily in the realm of matrimony (I'm divorced), but it seems that we both tend to be passionate about our contentions...moreso when enjoying a beverage.

I believe what I post...as I'm sure you do. I'll admit that my posts are a bit more forceful on the occasions that I imbibe..as are my expenditures.

We've never really spoken before and I'll admit that I occasionally assumed the worst about you. It's always a pleasure to see my preconceptions proven wrong.

In fact, I donated for myself and for 8 other people as well, picked at random.

So what's your problem (besides having a tendency to point the finger at others and generalize)?

:shrug:

most DUers don't buy Baghdad Bob Wolfson's spin.

I thought most of the Hillary supporters were gone already?

Therefore, this fundraiser is going slowly.

donations to members w/o stars.

supporters have either stopped showing up, migrated to other forums, massively cut back on their DU involvement, or blown a circuit and gotten themselves tombstoned.

Poor people really care about the issues and will give their hard earned money up to fight the good fight. Elitists expect a free ride and usually get it. I'm not going to sit by this time and be called racist and uneducated (translated "retarded"). Never mind those degrees on the wall, I'm just a reee-tard.

Why would I want to give me money to a place that keeps degenerating into that kind of hate group? As soon as the nomination officially goes to those who see me as less than them, I'm out of here. By then, I will have my official answer. Until then, I'm going to complain loudly to make damn sure this poor, "uneducated" so-called racist has a voice, even if it always gets deleted.

How can I make a donation for someone else as well?

I would like to donate for Indigo too. That is the late Sapphire Blue's daughter. :hug:

I mean you guys rule this place with all the flood of new members. So why don't they all donate?

Clinton supporters have been told to "get out of the way", should be thrown out of the Democratic party are not "needed" over the past few weeks and months so when are all these new members going to pony up?

Where's the donations to DU?

holding off until the money counts for the GE

Any notion that Obama will help pay off Clinton's debt probably doesn't help either.

not the anger that some folks feel.

Let me see, gas for the car, food on the table or donate to (insert cause here)

Yep, this is happening now... and has nothing to do with WHO people support this election cycle

in the same place as before. 2 fucking engineers looking for work. i have contract posttions but that is w/o healthcare.

there are folks out there that cannot find them since they are over qualified

I started my bidness due to that cause...

both my husband and I are double degreed professionals, surprising since we are Clinton supporters, no? LOL

I have the masters, but hubby is a high school graduate... and navy vet... works at the post office, blue collar true and true

Why them demographics do not work as advertised ALL THE TIME

Hold it, we should be republicans, we are also gun owners.

LOL

Eek, but that is another story, for another op

But the place I work at is looking for some engineers.

$25 bucks. Its coming out of Obama's GE fund though...

Fuckin bullshit.

I used to contribute but not so much anymore - it doesn't seem as informative or helpful to anything lately.

If you want helpful, this ain't the place to be.

I'm positive it'll be helpful and informative... enjoy! :hi:

I'm not sure why DU Admin didn't realize that when 50% of the party support one candidate and 50% of the party support another candidate that it's not productive to annihilate one of those 50% groups.

Kinda predictable that when 50% of your members get tired of being called out for being fucking idiots supporting that racist bitch and leave then the donations will fall off.

Ya know, I'll bet there a lot of good people who support Obama who also left because they tired of the bilge against the other good Democratic candidate.

I thought most of the Hillary supporters were gone.

Jeez...

I'd pay $20 for that. :D

(I don't know that he had a hard life, but Alaska can be an unforgiving place)

That said, if that glove hits Gravel in the nuts, I'm in for another donation.

I'm stunned at your 180 on BO.

Pleases me greatly to have you on this side, Miss Goldcanyonaz.

:)

Actually you didn't even reply to my emails about it

their favourite candidate , alerts through the roof etc . A bit like the evil boss killing off all his own henchman . The downside ...Nobody wants to donate to them . Possibly if they read the appeals and reprieved more they'd get some F ing money

And why was it unfair?

Got booted for recomending Hillary watch the movie Downfall . Was TS'd for Flame bait . Two days later two people actually posted the movie on the site and were not TS'd . I would accept that he was wrong to mention Hitler but he told me he apologised a few times to the Admins but they never responded . Then i saw the movies and told him he felt that was a bit unfair . BTW i know he actually supports Hill and Obama .

Invoking Hitler is not usually a smart thing to do. In fact, it tends to make folks wary of you.

Happy belated Mother's Day, by the way.

hilarious . Anyway he put me onto this site . I know he would have donated but he can't because they killed him off and i won't donate because of it. I'm just saying they don't even answer emails so what's the point

:*

Simpletonian.

don't tell me how to spend my money jerk.
