That way we can keep the Bernie-Hillary sniping in a separate forum, so GD can remain true to its original purpose, which is to bash Obama...

1. LOL! nt

[sufrommich]

2. I asked for GD/P in the "Ask the Administrators" forum

awhile ago,he seems wishy washy on when it's coming. But,yeah, I liked GD/P and wish we had it now.

3. Typed by someone who has posted two bash bernie OPs in last 15 minutes?

Try posting positives about your candidate as OPs not attacks on others maybe the GD wouldn't be quite so toxic?

4. LOL!

5. HA!

[Spazito]

[leftofcool]

[BainsBane]

9. You're on a roll!

I predict multiple incoming alerts though.

[fadedrose]

10. If you'd put a "sarcasm" thingy in your post

I would happily "R" it.

I'll do it grudgingly anyway because aside from Obama-bashing, there should be a feuding space for Bernie and the Front-runner.

11. lol

Didn't see that coming.

12. GD is still the primary place to discuss politics. It's where most DUers

read posts. The other forum will still get only a small part of the discussion, as always.

13. They had a GDP board in 2008

There were more body parts left in there after a typical day than you find in a Nigerian village after a visit by Boko Haram.

[FlatBaroque]

14. How about, GD:Shitty OP's ?

[L0oniX]

15. LOL

17. Used to read a board where a thread being positive on Obama got so many negatives the Mods set up a

Bash Obama Here! pinned thread and the Obama is Good for America (or something) thread was pinned just above it.

The Mods did it because the 'Obama Bashers' (Tea Partiers, Constitutional Party and GOP) wouldn't let the 'Obama Good' thread people share anything without spamming it to death and running people off.

The Mods had the ability to move the anti-Obama posts to the Bash Obama thread, so they soon grew tired of raving to each other. Their thread also filled up with the Ex-Democrats who were Infowars, Beck, etc. fans as well.

And they all refused to vote in 2010 because Obama didn't do what they wanted, just the way they wanted. I might add, they were overwhelmingly white, straight, middle class voters.

I used to lurk there until the Trayvon case came out, and then they really waved their CSA flag for everyone to see... So not all who identify to others as Democrats really are.

And they were so 'principled' they didn't care if headstomping Rand, misogynists, homophobes, racists, theocrats and crooks won. They really didn't care.

No one has posted there in years.

18. Funny of the day!

Thanks for a really good laugh!

19. That would be Politics 2015

[Sherman A1]

20. Precisely

I was just about to post that exact point, but you beat me to it.....

[Blue_Adept]

21. A primary forum is a must

But most would still post in GD anyway, figuring that's where they'll gain traction.

[WillyT]

22. You Own Me A New Keyboard...

[Fla Dem]

23. There is already a Politics 2015 forum which I think would serve the same purpose.

[d_legendary1]

24. But then they wouldn't be able to drag the rest of us into their squabble

And that wouldn't be fun (for them).

[Scurrilous]

25. Hah!

[JoePhilly]

26. GD:DUZY!!!!

[stevenleser]

27. LMAO, well played! Note my request of Skinner/admins in Ask the Administrators

http://www.democraticunderground.com/12597936

This might handle it in a different way.

[demmiblue]

28. I think you should lead by example. n/t

[Rex]

29. Or just stick all the shit stirrers in timeout land.

Not like it is very many people, just a few that like conflict and strife. GD would be very nice then. I would say use the ignore and trash thread buttons...but that seems impossible for those certain individuals.

[Tarheel_Dem]

30. !!!

[frylock]

31. I'd like to see a GD:Hypocrisy forum
