The DU Lounge
Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI have alienated a lot of my Republican friends on fb with all the political stuff I have posted, especially the posts ridiculing Romney. But I think it is to my credit that so far I have not made one single remark about Paul Ryan being Eddie Munster's love child.

(2,015 posts)I feel kind of bad but I just couldn't take anymore bs about how bad the economy is because of Obama.
I was just going to respond but I found everytime I looked at his post it made me so angry that I knew I would say something I would regret. I just don't need the stress so my old college buddy got blocked.

(3,879 posts)and obviously wrong, it does make you mad. Every time I see one of those, I search for something equally ridiculous about Romney and post it. Although Democrats in general are not as nasty as Republicans. Still, if you look for it, there are a few of us who are pretty mean and nasty too.

(2,015 posts)There's the gaggle of freeper friends who chime in with the atta boy type statements. I think that's what finally sent me over the edge.

(3,297 posts)how bad it would get and didn't want to scare off the wildlife by making a move. And it got pretty bad.
A couple of weeks ago I thought, "Enough." But I made a mental agreement with myself - I would only post a comment, picture or link if some jackass had posted the same. You know - to keep it "fair and balanced". Because we all know how much the rightwingers looove that.
For a couple of days, I was working overtime on the "balance". But it got really quiet, really fast. Not sure why. Oddly enough, they haven't de-"friended" me, either.
