what a ridiculous post. your desperation is showing. bowens43 Dec 2015 #1

How about addressing the post instead of attacking the poster? BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #5

Some thing do not deserve to be dignified by being taken seriously .. 99th_Monkey Dec 2015 #12

Project much, 99th? Yeah. That's ALL you do, in between attacking President Obama BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #19

Show me where I've 'attacked Obama' or 'defended GOP tactics' .. 99th_Monkey Dec 2015 #22

You just about called Obama as bad as GW Bush itsrobert Dec 2015 #43

True, I think Obama's sanctions against Venezuela are misguided. 99th_Monkey Dec 2015 #47

I totally agree. We seriously need a POTUS who knows how to talk to 'the opposition' 99th_Monkey Dec 2015 #80

Before you get too smug, 99th...your anti-Obama posts are subtle attacks, but they're attacks. BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #100

It's really very simple. 99th_Monkey Dec 2015 #101

"I'm not at all "anti-Obama" across the board." I've shown you are, no matter how BlueCaliDem Dec 2015 #103

Unbelievable that you had to ask that question. You do realize that back in the 1930.. George II Dec 2015 #78

So we agree that FDR did appeal to folks who had very reprehensible beliefs. Eleanors38 Dec 2015 #81

Well if you want to compartmentalize people like that, I guess you're "correct". George II Dec 2015 #85

The point is Not to compartmentalize, politics is requires outreach. Eleanors38 Dec 2015 #86
