He's not advocating for Democrats, either. Go read that post one more time. MADem Jun 2015 #39

I gave you my opinion with links nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #46

Enough with the GBCW. MADem Jun 2015 #103

And I am just telling you what it is. nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #184

he is not advocating for the current version of the Democratic Party Mnpaul Jun 2015 #56

We're trying to elect a Democratic President with the DNC we've got. Not some fantasy team. nt MADem Jun 2015 #108

I don't like foolish comments either, and bashing, trashing and undermining seems to me to be a MADem Jun 2015 #181

Says the poster who made that up out of whole cloth. MADem Jun 2015 #193

Actually, you do make me laugh. The fact that you're blunded Exilednight Jun 2015 #195

If you say it often enough you might actually believe it. MADem Jun 2015 #197

Now you're quoting the book of Matthew. This just keeps getting better. How many more right wing Exilednight Jun 2015 #198

Oh boy, the "Now you're using right wing tactics" diversion! MADem Jun 2015 #244

From where I stand you are doing the same thing that you ALWAYS do. MADem Jun 2015 #194

You are correct. nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #199

You're just angry at yourself, not me. MADem Jun 2015 #245

If you want to pretend I am angry nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #246

I'm not pretending, you're very transparent. Guess you changed your mind, eh? MADem Jun 2015 #250

So you are telling me that I am angry nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #251

You keep seeking me out--not the other way around, mind you--and yelling at me. MADem Jun 2015 #252

You are not going on ignore so you know this nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #253

There you go again! Did I ask you for anything? No, I did not. Yet here you are, MADem Jun 2015 #254

Nope, I am not doing a thing nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #255

You sought me out, and you repeatedly tell me how much you dislike me. MADem Jun 2015 #256

Here we go back to my imaginary misery nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #257

More snark. I'm not reading your mind. You are communicating to everyone where your head is at! nt MADem Jun 2015 #258

Cute nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #259

You have the power, now. It's all up to you! nt MADem Jun 2015 #260

Now we are to cute talking points nadinbrzezinski Jun 2015 #261

There are no talking points in that post. MADem Jun 2015 #262

That is the irony of it. I don't agree with a lot of people on here, but I don't try and chase them Exilednight Jun 2015 #191

harassment? G_j Jun 2015 #175

But you and your tag team pal sure would! MADem Jun 2015 #177

that's funny G_j Jun 2015 #178

Of course not--you're just accidental Bobsey twins! MADem Jun 2015 #179

You jumped onto this thread G_j Jun 2015 #185
