In reply to the discussion: The real reason a very loud few are posting hostility toward Barack Obama at DU: [View all]stupidicus
(2,570 posts)and make for quite a sizable list that everyone here with reading comp skills exceeding those of a second grader should be familiar with.
The only thing lacking is any substantive invalidation of the concerns and/or criticisms, or whatever form that hostility takes beyond second grade level efforts to mock/ridicule those engaging in such. That kinda stuff is leaned heavily upon in lieu of the ability to accomplish anything else.
and some of those efforts might not even meet the second grader standard.
And given that I'd bet that the lion's share of those you're referring to are likely long time DU participants, the idea that they suddenly became stealth rightwingers while amusing, only goes to show you how desperate some are to silence those they can't with valid/defensible argumentation.
