In reply to the discussion: Elizabeth Warren: Poutrage or Hate? [View all]
ConservativeDemocrat
(2,720 posts)68. Exactly! So when will disruptors and shills who constantly bash Obama leave?
Seriously, I'm waiting.
It's perfectly acceptable to say "All in all, I disagree with the majority view in the U.S. that we should have anti-terrorism surveillance; I'm not worried about terrorism so I respectfully disagree with the President". While I disagree with that sentiment, at least it would have a modicum of acknowledgement that these are thorny issues. Instead though, the D.U. hosts counterproductive anti-Democratic party screamers - who are not interested in discussion, much less debate. They pull "facts" out of their ass, flat out lie, invent strawmen (like this OP did) because they don't want to acknowledge facts, and appear to be doing their best to drive people away from the party they pretend they're in favor of.
So, when are these constantly anti-Democratic "Democrats" leaving? Why are you even here? Have you considered RevLeft instead? It might be more your cup of tea.

Clearly, she's taking a principled stand. I don't think she's racist, it's not poutrage or hate.

Oh. Well, there are probably a few people who just take cheap shots and aren't good at discussion.

She's a traitor, anti-American, a Paulite, a racist and she is helping the terrorists.

Sigh. If DU limited itself to factual complaints and opposing nominations like Warren did...

The answer, I suggest, is that inexperienced people think that there are "imaginary" cliques.

Obama's "transparency" is only for his 600 US corporate advisers - they have input.

False dichotomy, it is both hate and poutrage and probably a side order of racism too n/t
