If I ruled GDP I would lay down this one simple law
No posts about anything Drudge, Hannity, Limbaugh, or O'Reilly say about either Democratic candidate.


It burns me up to see Democrats using trash from these people to attack other Democrats. It burns me up even more that any Democrat would even care what these cretins have to say.

rant over.

2. I thought it was a rule
I thought we weren't supposed to post stuff from right wing sites.

:shrug:

5. It is a rule honored more in the breach than the observance.
If it says something negative about a Democrat (usually Obama), someone will gleefully cite the source, no matter how right-wing, even if it's Drudge, Faux Noise, the Wall Street Urinal, or tools like Jonah Goldberg and Peter Hitchens.

8. We have one poster who uses them regularly with no repercussion.
Edited on Mon Apr-28-08 09:10 PM by Forkboy
And of course, that poster is convinced they are the Dem's best of the best.

3. they're behaving like freepers
I agree, it is sickening beyond belief. How about NOT attacking people we used to love just because they are not enthralled with a certain candidate? Michael Moore and Paul Krugman come to mind. STOP IT ALREADY!!!

7. Two excellent examples of the silliness here.
I'd take both Moore and Krugman over most of GD-P's inhabitants any day.

6. I wouldn't mind if it was used to mock those shitheels.
But it rarely is used that way. Instead, people use them against Dems, thus becoming what they "claim" to hate.

9. Drudge makes news, whether you like it or not.
Its an ever present open tab for people in the news business, and it would be silly to pretend he wasn't there.

10. The MSM has such low standards these days
I would hope we could keep the bar higher than that.

12. I've been saying that or months
but the anti Hillary posts keep flowing in from all those despicable sources. Glad to see Obama people realize this fact and hopefully everyone on both sides will realize what we are doing to each other. Peace.
