A message to Hillary supporters and other Democrats (only): something you'll be gratified to hear
the Facebook page Democrat Cafe on Feb 24 posted a msg from the administrators announcing that they will be removing candidate bashing posts and issued the following warning to anyone posting "Negative" or candidate "Bashing" posts.

[font size="+1"]Now, this should NOT be interpreted as a suggestion to give up on DU. I am a firm believer in not letting the adolescent, vindictive, Hillary bashing GOPers have DU to themselves. I just wanted to let you know if you'd like to have a little break to see - engage in - some actual discussion without having to put up with GOP Candidate Bashers, there is a place you can go. But PLEASE don't give up on DU![/font]

OP
Madam Mossfern
(2,340 posts)1. But it's OK to be a Sanders basher?
Like 100:1 Hillary to Sanders bashing

(6,436 posts)4. nonsense question.
I removed "hillary basher" from OP replaced with 'candidate basher' ... but what you refer to in your message is for the most part an empty set.

Just don't give the GOP true facts about the Queen. They are desperate. The truth hurts her, and they want none of it. They call it bashing.
