Ya know, folks that are still fighting the primaries are one thing

but when people start critiquing your marriage, it's gone too fucking far.

When people start excusing Anthony Weiner, it's gone too fucking far.

When people ignore the systemic racism, and the misogyny, it's gone too fucking far.

When people call you a Republican lite, or any other insult simply because you support Hillary Clinton, it's gone too fucking far.

I would like to hope that we can regroup, and work together, but I'm not holding much hope.

There are too many people here who are hell bent on not only destroying this site, but the Democratic party as well.

Carry on, but I'm sick of this shit.

and brought up your own marriage as evidence .

Weiner has done this multiple times before during obama's presidency and it ruined Weiener's own career. you are the one that tried to connect this to clinton.

most people are not defending weiner and think he is a jerk, asshole, selfish, etc etc............

Then we wouldn't have to hear the people throwing a tantrum because they lost a democratic vote calling everyone else "corrupt."

Then we wouldn't have to hear a minority demanding to be put in charge without winning the vote complaining about other people being "authoritarian."

Then we wouldn't have to hear folks who can't get elected dogcatcher in liberal MA going on about how a government of 300+ million people should be run.

If a guest came into my house on the pretense of wanting to visit, and then proceeded to shit all over me, my friends and family, and my home, they'd get thrown out on their ass. And then I wouldn't care where they went so long as it was away from me.

I kind of like it when they type and remove all doubt.

"when people start critiquing your marriage..."

When offered up to the audience as an example, it becomes by that very act, part of the discussion. For myself, those things in my life I do not want discussed (or 'critiqued', were I less objective) I simply do not introduce into discussion.

They're just a teeny little minority with big mouths and inversely-related sized brains . The vast majority of Democrats are proud supporters of Hillary Clinton, including Democratic Underground. Bernie Sanders is proud to support Hillary Clinton, and has said so.
