1. Is it a full moon
I swear, where do these people come from. Damn even have to defend myself because I am against Webb in Virginia, and the idiot that is arguing with me does not even live in Virginia. Man talk about jumping on bandwagons without knowing crap. Next thing I'm waiting for is the dreaded I don't support the troops, I wouldn't put anything pass these idiots.

:banghead:

Oh by the way Vek,

:yourock:

Another nice point about Webb - Nice fellow.

http://www.wvec.com/sharedcontent/APStories/stories/D8G7N9E80.html

She was referring to comments Webb made and articles he wrote in the 1970s and 1980s. One of them was a 1979 article in The Washingtonian magazine titled "Women Can't Fight."

"There is a place for women in our military, but not in combat," Webb wrote in the magazine article.

He also wrote that by admitting them to West Point, the Air Force Academy and the Naval Academy "in the name of equality, this country has sterilized the whole process of combat leadership training, and our military forces are doomed to suffer the consequences."

6. I hate it when people from other states

insist on what's best for you. It's like, "please, you don't even live here so don't pretend you have more authority on the subject than I do". People really do not analyze the reasons for their support for anything. They are followers.

2. You forgot
Call those that challenge your idiocy a lunatic. That was particularly special.

5. they've been coming out of the woodwork the last few days
but, on the other hand, I've been pleasantly surprised by the level of support, some of it coming from people I did not expect to see it from...

7. These fights need to stop.
I think in the future, unless someone repeats a real lie or RW talking point about Kerry, we should let it slide. If all someone does is say "No Kerry, no way", even in some condescending, rude manner, we should just ignore it.

Replying to them only gives these naysayers the opportunity to drag things out in those huge subthreads and spew more of their crap about how nobody is good enough except their pet candidate and about how Barbra Boxer is a fascist or whatever the hell was going on in that thread.

Let's try to rise above it.

12. One thing I learned
from being a Moderator on the official Kerry blog is that you pound back with facts and truth.

Just think of it this way, there are 86,000+ registered DU'ers, now the percentage that respond to these types of posts good or bad is like a fraction of 1%. But the percentage reading the responses is so much bigger, and you have to include those (lurkers) that aren't even registered. To leave untruths and crap about John Kerry out there with no debunking is like saying yep thats right. We can't allow that, and believe me facts and truths do speak volumes. Because in the end, when people get tired of the crap, you'll see more and more debunking and as we have seen lately new people posting truth about John Kerry.

Just my 2 cents.

13. Yes
That's all you can do. If they reject the facts than that's their own problem. Not anyone else's.

9. What I find interesting is
these detractors refuse to avoid the positive Kerry threads. That's amazing to me. The more impressive the OP report, the more determined they are to disrupt.

14. The stupids were out in force
Well, more like one or two stupids. It's really obvious to me that at least one is a troll.
