attitudes.

You seem to be taking my posts awfully seriously, given that you felt compelled to try to lecture me on how progressives think. Perhaps you need to get a hold of your OWN self, hmmm?

I do think, though, that you need to take a little time to study this link.

And while you are at it, you probably need to look at this link, too:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=aboutus

See, this isn't "just one of a million Internet forums." This is a very particular place, with a very particular culture. If you think we take ourselves too seriously to suit you, well, you've got options. We're not about to change to please you. And you're not going to have too much luck if you continue to be insensitive to the feelings of others here, either.
