ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
Calling supporters of the President "paid shills" is the definintion of disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sun Aug 18, 2013, 12:48 PM, and the Jury voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: The OP doesn't concern "supporters", but those who "defend...every single move."
I'm not sure what that has to do with the Philippines, but I think it's silly to pretend that there couldn't ever be a professional poster on DU (altho it's equally silly to presume that anyone you disagree with is the hired help.)
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: I ain't got time for paid shills!
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Sorry, but the poster's explanation is really the only one that makes sense. DU has become the internet's premier site for NSA apologia.
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT and said: I think it has a hint of racism too, actually. As does carolinayellowdog's reply to this one.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
