I've posted MANY times on DU about DLC sHIllary. WATCH THESE VIDEOS! antigop Jan 2012 #71

Why don't you post your own threads instead of hijacking those of others? MADem Jan 2012 #77

Post removed Post removed Jan 2012 #78

I won't watch them. They have nothing to do with the OP. Go peddle your gripes elsewhere. MADem Jan 2012 #88

Thank you for the opportunity to draw attention to the videos and what DLC sHillary has done. antigop Jan 2012 #93

After all this time are you still clueless about the DLC? How pitiful. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #73

You are being rude, disruptive, hurtful and over-the-top--and I don't think I'm the only one MADem Jan 2012 #79

I'm drawing attention to what she has done. I guess you can't stand the DLC being called out. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #82

No you are not--you are deliberately, with malice, disrupting a thread about her retirement. MADem Jan 2012 #84

I'm saying GOOD RIDDANCE. I'm allowed to say that about a DLCer. No love lost. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #85

You lost your credibility Speed8098 Jan 2012 #133

You won't even watch the videos to find out why I say GOOD RIDDANCE. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #99

Now you're getting it--who ever said you weren't clever? nt MADem Jan 2012 #100

I'm clever enough to figure out the damage the DLC has done. The videos demonstrate the damage. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #104

And I'm allowed to say "shut the Hell up!" Enough! juajen Jan 2012 #122

Where's the rule that everyone has to be happy smiley about a pol's retirement? tabasco Jan 2012 #86

The posts should at least relate to the OP. nt MADem Jan 2012 #87

My posts do relate to the OP. GOOD RIDDANCE TO HER for what she's done. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #91

No one has responded to the videos....because you can't defend the indefensible. n/t antigop Jan 2012 #83
