Your list is way too short. Dawgs Jul 2013 #2

x3! eom wildbilln864 Jul 2013 #196

What you're saying is that you never believed him, right? n/t ProSense Jul 2013 #3

nope. wrong again. reliably, wonderfully wrong. cali Jul 2013 #5

So you ProSense Jul 2013 #9

oh dear, you are a little confused. try reading for comprehension, pro cali Jul 2013 #11

Is that good advice? That will slow things down. AnotherMcIntosh Jul 2013 #42

Where is that in the post? WCLinolVir Jul 2013 #221

That was a personal attack on you, cali RobertEarl Jul 2013 #10

cali is the one who constantly engages in personal attacks Cali_Democrat Jul 2013 #12

yes, and take a look at the innocuous posts hidden cali Jul 2013 #19

Asking you a question is not a personal attack... sensitive much? scheming daemons Jul 2013 #22

Uh oh, you've been "dearied"! "Sweetie" and "Honey" can't be far behind. 11 Bravo Jul 2013 #182

Just because a jury votes doesn't mean justice was the outcome. n/t jtuck004 Jul 2013 #39

Forget about the jury and just read some of those hidden posts Cali_Democrat Jul 2013 #44

Well, the jury is how posts get "hidden", and thus a transparency page is built. jtuck004 Jul 2013 #184

I've been seeing a lot of that... malokvale77 Jul 2013 #78

For years she was one of his most ardent supporters. Fuddnik Jul 2013 #41

Indeed. Blue_In_AK Jul 2013 #236

I looked at that transparency page cate94 Jul 2013 #228

Asking a question is a "personal attack"? ProSense Jul 2013 #13

Yes, a snarky, insincere rude passive aggressive attack in the form of a question. Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #59

What silliness. n/t ProSense Jul 2013 #87

Thanks for proving Bluenorthwest's point YoungDemCA Jul 2013 #214

I agree. nt Mojorabbit Jul 2013 #233

Quick response! pocoloco Jul 2013 #223

to sum up - I'll believe him when he starts acting like a Democrat quinnox Jul 2013 #4

Drones are simply a tool... would you feel better if it was Tomahawk missiles? scheming daemons Jul 2013 #21

What's the difference on the receiving end? hobbit709 Jul 2013 #23

There is none... that's my point. scheming daemons Jul 2013 #36

There is a difference, though. morningfog Jul 2013 #53

Lots of difference. lark Jul 2013 #148

Why present a false choice? Maedhros Jul 2013 #25

You're right-- it isn't the tool. It's the administration's claims to a right to assassinate Marr Jul 2013 #26

well, to me you are sounding like Dick Cheney with this quinnox Jul 2013 #28

My grandson... malokvale77 Jul 2013 #47

How about none of the above? The waronterra is neagtive feedback loop. morningfog Jul 2013 #49

What has that got to do with drones being used in countries we are not at war with? sabrina 1 Jul 2013 #229

Whether Obama is sincere isn't the point, it's whether we can get the geek tragedy Jul 2013 #7

Putting pressure on Republicans involves actual work... SunSeeker Jul 2013 #32

That's what discussion boards are for, comments. Demit Jul 2013 #75

Yes, I can and I do. Do you? nt SunSeeker Jul 2013 #93

I write letters on paper, not on discussion boards. I go to rallies in person, not on Demit Jul 2013 #105

Good for you. We should do all of the above. SunSeeker Jul 2013 #114

And my point was that you are assuming something you can't know. Demit Jul 2013 #163

So you are suggesting that all the posters here are also fighting for the Dem agenda? SunSeeker Jul 2013 #175

Hi SunSeeker lark Jul 2013 #149

Good! I said some, not all. SunSeeker Jul 2013 #151

Shifting the goal posts a tad, aren't you? enlightenment Jul 2013 #164

You are putting words in my mouth. SunSeeker Jul 2013 #168

You're funny. enlightenment Jul 2013 #172

Sometimes happily, Republicans find they are on the same page as Democrats, such as sabrina 1 Jul 2013 #230

OFFS, Dems are not defending Bush policies. Enough with the hyperbole. SunSeeker Jul 2013 #231

You've given little evidence yourself. malokvale77 Jul 2013 #134

Well I'm not the one who constantly attacks Obama for doing nothing to help the situation. Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #135

Now that was awsome... zeemike Jul 2013 #147

Once he looked gullible as hell "reaching out" it went south. n-t Logical Jul 2013 #111

Yes. How dare the President try to reach a consensus... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #115

I'd just like to point out that cali is not writing about 'believing in him' which is Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #51

Thanks a really interesting catch LondonReign2 Jul 2013 #56

Believing in the President doesn't equate to a cult of personality... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #62

I disagree. Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #70

The OP has constantly posted negative crap about Obama since the election... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #74

Is this Meta just for you? Since when did DU dedicate itself to personal attack? Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #85

So are terms like cultists... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #95

I don't know who this centrist is... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #57

You were not criticized for supporting Obama, but for using the phrase 'you don't Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #66

Then DU is centrist and shallow and vapid... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #76

More faith based characterizations, you on what others 'seem to believe' is just Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #81

For someone who likes to rail against personal attacks, you really have no problem lobbing 'em. Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #97

I'm talking about your words and ideas, not about you. That's the difference. Bluenorthwest Jul 2013 #112

There is no difference... Drunken Irishman Jul 2013 #116

There is a big difference. malokvale77 Jul 2013 #186
