I'd like to know what rule this violated

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=433&topic_id=582077&mesg_id=582092

is it against the rules now to call a pundit a "cheerleader"?

I thought that rule applied only to other DUers.

1. Your verbiage was more broad than simply calling one pundit a cheerleader.

You were referring to "Obama's biggest cheerleaders," and the post could therefore be read as an insinuation about DUers.

2. the "cheerleader" bit was a small part of an otherwise

thoughtful post, imo.

It's a sad state of affairs that DU has come to a place where a single word can "insinuate" and stop any further discussion.
