Edited on Fri Sep-23-05 02:38 PM by frictionlessO
Those of you that feel this way, are also not into the rally this weekend because not enough blue blooded centrist aren't supporting it. Right?

Im glad so many of you have bought into it again.

you have to weedle through some of the comments but yes they are there.

2. Did someone say this?
I hate it when people post threads directed at people who said something in other threads without linking it so the rest of us can understand what they're talking about.

13. Criticizing both is cool
Bashing either is not.

Some folks have a different definition of what a bash is as opposed to a criticism. We get that alot around here. What some consider a bash, others consider a criticism. But that's democracy for ya, I guess.

10. Does seem like it's insulting an awful lot of people in a
very broad way.

I'm not sure we really need to be lashing out at fellow DUers in such an indiscriminate way.

I agree, Mr Tyree. Or should I call you Skink?

11. Don't worry about it I alerted on myself...
I feel like the posters Im reffing in that thread linked above are doing the exact same thing.

I am sorry.. I really am but the Cindy criticisms on that thread while saying we shouldn't critique our Dem leaders may have gotten the better of me.

12. It is indeed not right to say that we can't criticize our Dem leaders
But it's also not right to say that we can't criticize Cindy, or we're pro-war, slobbering all over Hillary, marching in lockstep or somesuch. I have supported Cindy. I will continue to support Cindy. That doesn't mean I think everything that comes out of Cindy's mouth is golden. I may disagree. And that doesn't make me a centrist, a DLCer etc.

14. Thats right and we are allowed to criticize Hillary or Clark when we feel
like they are in lock step with something we abhor and disagree with.

You support Cindys right to free speech.

Do you support Cindys call to end the war?

I understand where you are coming from because thats all I hear from dem leaders, do you understand where I am coming from?

15. oh please
I wish all of this were so black and white.. but it isn't.

I support Cindy, I didn't and dont' support the war, I hope the march tomorrow is the biggest in history.

BUT I also see the political BS games being played by these so called blue blooded centrists. I hate this crap too, but I can be realistic and see politics 101 at play.

AND yes they should not have voted for the war, but here we are NOW. let's deal with that NOW.

16. If you read what Cindy said after meeting with Hillary, its the Hillary-
bashers that are disrespecting Cindy. Like *, they don't have the decency to listen to what Cindy has to say:

“I know their offices are going to be working with us; all we have to do is keep up the pressure on them,” Sheehan said, adding, “Now it’s up to the people of New York to put pressure on Clinton.”

Cindy wants you to ACT CONSTRUCTIVELY. How is saying "The Hell with Hillary!" acting constructively?

Show Cindy some respect!
