DU Talking Points - please rehearse for any media interaction
You're not happy with something the chosen has done? You must be a PUMA ... yeah that's right you closet Clinton supportor, we got your number

You're not happy that your rights were taken away? You silly homo, shut up and sit down and don't you dare ruin the day for the rest of us. And while we're at it, don't even try to equate your feelings with any other folks that have experienced discrimination and bigotry ... what you are facing doesn't count because you can camp out in the closet.

You're not happy that you don't have equal rights? You better damn well do something about, because hey, I haven't seen you do ANYTHING about it and OMG, no one has actually died for THIS cause ... have they?

You don't tear up when someone posts a picture of the one? You FREEPER!

You didn't kiss your Change poster today? See above.

You DARE ... DARE to express disappointment that someone who equates your marriage to that of a child molester or incest is being given an honourary seat at the table in the name of politics ... oh crap, not politics, we meant "reaching across the great divide"

You have lost some faith ... yeah I said it ... I said that shit on Democratic Underground ... faith y'all, FREAKING FAITH ... you've lost some faith in the one? You want your money back? HA! Take your "urgent plea" and stick it ... oh sorry, almost said a gay thing there ...



Bah ... I'll say it right now ... I'm tired, extremely tired of being the sacrificial lamb. When politics and the next election become more important then basic human rights, all hope and hope for change is lost.

2. Calling Obama, "The One" or "The Chosen One" is what makes you look like a freeper or PUMA
Is this like Cultists redux?

7. Correct... the only people who use those terms are his ENEMIES.....

None of us on this side have ever used terms like that for him.



But you know who has?


Joe Scarborough
Sean Hannity
Rush Limbaugh

9. perhaps you and the other followers should stop treating him
like he is "the chosen one" and above criticism.

14. It reminds me of a dozen or so fits of hysteria from the past year...
The "ZOMG!Obama mentioned Reagan" is high on the list.
