34. I am not a lemming but I will not shame him in an election year

Fri Jan 6, 2012, 01:32 PM

Jan 2012

and I am offended that you would encourage others here to do so.

The guy is the best President in at least 50 years. This type of divisive attack while claiming to support the party isn't helpful at all.

I know you are new here but you need to start catching on to how we do things here. Calling anyone who disagrees with your approach a "lemming" isn't going to make many friends. Some of us do not need instant gratification and actually understand that these battles are going to take decades, if not generations.

For that matter I also find the name Commie Pinko, or a contraction thereof, offensive also.
