what is the DEAL with all the freeping lately?

is it because of the convention? are they bored? i've seen like 10 tombstonings in the past 3-4 days.

NOT

stupid freeps

Then again...it could be they are running scared...:D

....from what?

undying support for a candidate who stands in opposition to everything the party has stood for for years... big spending (but with NO positive impact)... HUGE RECORD deficits... growing government larger... increasing dependency on government (but now it is a corporate nanny state with more companies being dependent on govt handouts)... etc.

no profile, and some kind of downloadable file. very interesting.

I had no idea either! LOL... I removed it... did that help? I seldom use that feature anyway.

Hmmmm.... someone said that kind of language and all was...er... well... not for this board... I do not know what I said amiss, I simply asked a question. Why the cutesy attack? I have no idea what flowery thing you are talking about unless you mean where the moderators or whomever add the MSN icon and I do not control that. So, what IS your problem?

that wer'e talking in. when someone shows up with no profile and an icon i didn't recognize, i got suspicious.

and btw, people say fuck on DU all the time.

fuck
fuck
fuck.

not THIS person. DU or not.

thing is, we are far more offended about 1000 dead soldiers than we are about the occasional use of salty language

it doesn't help, either.

what a troll is, and not sure I wanna. LOL
Gosh, I was told this was a friendly place... maybe I landed on the wrong board? Sorry.

and frankly, I'm always suspicious about someone who hides their profile. After all, you can hide EVERYTHING about you if you display it except the date you joined. Why would anyone hide the date they joined?

Hey, gang, I just got here -- gimme time... I dunno what all is what yet... I will check on the profile thiing... I never bother with those... I mean, who CARES? We are all just computer screen cyber friends... I am called daddybear (my kids have called me that for years and now my grandkids), I live in North Carolina USA, am married with one at home (in college) right now and five others scattered... I am a retired newspaperman and minister...author of seven books...and homebound now by deteriorative disc disease and spend way too much time in my wheelchair in front of this computer TRYING to make cyber friends. What else ya need to know? I am 63...

Welcome to DU. :toast:

I can imagine why... I know, as I say, that some of the real hateful acting posters from another board are doing some following... of a number of us... and that is fine; just bear with it awhile and it will all calm... I am not here to cause a stir at all.. don't wanna, in fact... I like the fact that there are other threads besides the foolishness that goes with most of the politics/election stuff... people go insane... and why? It is the CANDIDATES we love or hate, NOT one another... I maintain we are just computer screens... why are we calling one another names. I got into it... and had to shake myself and wake up... that is CRAZY.
For the record, I detest all Bush stands for so far as his "politics" and I believe him to be insane,a hypocrite, a liar and a warmongering murderer of our troops.
I am not a Kerry fan necessarily, but I always said ANYBODY BUT BUSH and for me, that is the crux of it all... the best thing about Kerry (for me) is that he is not Bush... and our country needs a new hope.

'politics'?" That seems to imply that there is something you DO stand for in Bush. Am I wrong? And why aren't you a Kerry fan? Care to expand on that?

I said it that way because politically I believe he is a total dork. And what he PRETENDS to be for, I AM for.. as in a Christ-honoring nation... (I firmly believe he is a fake and uses the "religion key" when he sees it will FIT somewhere and then drops it when not needed any longer... so I believe in what he PRETENDS to stand for... not what (I say) he TRULY stands for (war, death, killing, lying, etc).

and that he is really all about war, death, killing, and lying ... uh ... I see...

Now, the $64,000 question... what's your agenda here?

Kerrt? No... I said it about BUSH... who in the world could mix that up?

My "agenda"? I am here to make cyber friends and enjoy discussion. And?

:)

I went back to make sure I did not mis-type because THAT would have been a disaster! Hahahah... noooooooooooooooooooo... Lord no, no Bush for me or mine... we can't stand the guy from day one...
No harm done... I am trying to make some cyber pals here and do not wanna ruffle the wrong feathers HAAHHAH... okay? Don't mind ruffling feathers, just don't wanna be though of as a Bushee for NO reason! GROSS!!! (isn;t that what you whippersnappers say nowadays!?)

I repeat --- I will be voting for Kerry and so will the 40 folks I call family <hg>... but mainly because he is NOT Bush... I (we) believe it is time for Bush to go back to shoveling poop at the Crawford ranch and let America be taken care of by REAL Americans again... dunno why you twisted all that up to mean I was not for Kerry and was for Bush! YUCK!!!

You said "I detest all Bush stands for so far as his "politics" ".. which implied to me that there was something you agreed with him on. And then you went on to say that you were not a Kerry fan. Just a lot of people on here lately that seem to be trying to passive-aggressively impede... sorry if I mistook you for one of them.

overlook this old goat now and then... arthritis and senility combine and maybe I don't explain me-self too well... hahah... but I KNOW WHAT I MEAN!:-)

~~chortle~~

:hi: got what you were saying the first time.:-)

I saw you on the other thread, and, lo and behold (us geezers like phrases like that), here you are again.

:hi:

You have certainly been gracious, and I really am sorry there are so many who are *looking* for something to pick at.

NOBODY should have to defend themselves from the gitgo--

I appreciate that you brought out one item that many need to keep in mind....... there are *many* folk who spend a lot of time online because they physically aren't able to do things they would actually *prefer* to do. That would be obvious if folks just thought about it. (YEs, there are many criticisms of those some decide "spend too much time here" -- as if it's really anyone's business........)

I'm sorry for your circumstances, and glad that you at least have some family around who are supportive. Some of uuslack that, too.
I hope you quite quickly find some compatriots here. You sound like a good friend to have!

Another welcome...

:toast:

This is the internet....people are going to come...no getting around it...

You know, Ol' "Be very afraid altho I've made the world safer"?

If they had anything good to say about the misAdministration, they wouldn't have turned their convention into a hatefest.

Well, for sure we are no safer at all because Dumbya went after the wrong man... he may think the world is safer (but obviously with all the terrorists he has riled up over this, he is again wrong) but the US is in graver danger than it has ever been...Osama and his bunch has outsmarted us at every angle (now and then we "catch" one but 50 others take his place)... no, we are FAR from a safer nation because Saddam is locked away.. he never bothered US anyway...

the only option is to attack your opponent. Says a lot about their hopes for the future. . .

Think about that for a second.

Panicked was my second. Desperate was my third.

call it nerves or what ever, but them freepshits are just plain scared, scared, scared. Scared of the terrorists gettin' em, scared that their government might think they're terrorist sympathizers if they use the wrong word or phrase.

They are pitiful, spineless, yella-bellied, cowards. Just the same as the USSC's bastard president that they imagine is so brave and tough.

But they're brave enough to wear a band-aid with a purple heart on it to show how loyal and patriotic they are :eyes:

Have I said yet today ;-) how much I Hate These People! :grr:

They are so afraid of our unity and determination.

All they can do is come here and resort to petty name calling. How sad is that?

If they really did follow the values of the Christian religion, then they'd know that you don't go up to someone and call him/her names like a little second grader. The Bible also says that you shouldn't go and start trouble for no apparent reason.

I think the freepers need to re-read the Bible. It's time for them to grow up.

...to take their itty-bitty minds off the fact that they are celebrating a paid holiday THANKS TO US FRICKIN' LIBERALS!!

Dogs can smell the crazy oozing from Freeper & Lucianne denizens' pores, making them unsuitable as pets. So, as things continue to suck for God's Chosen Chimpanzee, they have to come here and pretend to be beating up something.

The rightwing smear-machine is getting cranked up and shifting into second gear. Unfotunately for the riders their tank is on empty.

It seems to happen before elections.

How true, how true. Just like the wasps and bees during this time of the year. They know they're going to die, so they get aggressive and down right vicious looking to stick their stinger in a nice squishy spot.

Unfortunately, I know of this fall wasp behavior from personal experience.

And have probably been dispatched by GOP operatives. I hate having to wonder if every DU-er with low post count is for real, a repenting ex-GOP-er, or an undercover mole.

I thought that would never happen!

I suspect she was a disruptor all along - or else extremely biased and ignorant of reality.

Its posts made my stomach turn and my blood boil and I would have been banned for personal attacks on that bigoted fascist ages ago.

I wonder what was the last straw for the mods? I always suspected it was someone who had been previousy banned.

NT!

They are doing their typical attacks. They are nervous and desperate and attacking this place is a way for them to feel like they are saying something. The problem is, they are so bad at it that they get pointed out after a few posts.

and deep six their asses.

South Sea blue, but I'm all in agreement for deep sixing those who are making a mockery of this board right now. Take for instance, those who pretend to be Muslim or citizens of liberal EU countries...

I can't believe how many long time DUers respond to them as if they were serious.

Is it just me? :crazy:

back in the days of fountain pens. Sorry , I felt that Orange Alert has been overdone. SSB is a beautiful aqua blue.We could call it a Mauve alert

I love the color name South Sea Blue, just wasn't aware of what it referred to.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was an alert color code here, there seems to be one everywhere these days. I saw one in the grocery store the other day. WTF? Am I supposed to determine the amount of canned goods I purchase by the color code level?

since the convention, but with all the investigating going on in this administration, they may need to hold their glee and fire. You have to hope the truth comes out about this administration eventually and then even they will no longer be able to defend them. But I suspect they will still hate though.

click.



I am sure they are always here. No big deal. If you believe in your party then why worry about them? Let them lurk. It is just a website. I doubt they are trying to convert anyone. They just want to make fun. Hell check out the CU. They have an entire section set aside for making fun of this site. Let em. Kerry is the next president. After the next election we can lurk over there and make fun.

Don't vote for Bush! He's an alien lizard!

heh heh..I'm only half nocturnal myself ;-)

The musician's life I guess, but I have class tomorrow in the afternoon and I need to force myself from this damn computer... but I need input! Must have news! Input input!

How you doin'? :hi:

But I gotta tell ya, I'll be doin' a HELL of a lot better once we are rid of these fucking VILE alien lizards :evilgrin: Where the hell did they come from anyway :shrug:

Hey classes for what? Whatcha gonna be when ya grow up ;-) AND....

Music: Classical guitar, Brazilian percussion - international folk music, jazz, blues, funk, samba, rock, etc.
What I want to be? Employed... and victorious over the alien lizards!

discussions and our board is far easier on the eyes. if you were there, wouldn't you want to get out of that fecal filled toilet? i mean, really, how much can one person hate before self destructing?
