I may have the silver medal for lurking myself. This place is usually a treasure trove of info, but some here are extremely sensitive. Don't post too much cause the ridiculous arguments are just tiresome.

No, I don't stand with Planned Parenthood in their endorsement of Hillary [View all] cali Jan 2016 OP

Why not post in the original thread. This seems like a callout OP. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #1

Not meta at all. djean111 Jan 2016 #3

Again, why not reply in the original thread... MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #6

It is not up to you to condescendingly decide when and where people post. djean111 Jan 2016 #9

Didn't say it was up to me. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #11

Because that other thread is exploitative bullshit that should not control discussion of Planned Bluenorthwest Jan 2016 #17

But that is the purpose of an endorsement. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #18

Absolutely you put skin in the game... in the down and dirty game of politics... Bubzer Jan 2016 #40

You think there are Democrats who will stop supporting PP... MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #42

Interesting that you think yourself the gatekeeper of what makes a person a Democrat. Bubzer Jan 2016 #45

Bully for you. Keep pumping that non-support of PP. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #50

Oh, I do support PP... I don't support hillary Bubzer Jan 2016 #53

Enough of this nonsense. All Bernie supporters support PP. senz Jan 2016 #107

You are absolutely right. I wanted people to see this. So? cali Jan 2016 #120

Maybe Cali didn't know she needed to get your approval for this sort of thing. DisgustipatedinCA Jan 2016 #159

Are you really telling women we can't respond with our own thread? beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #4

Of course not. The first three sentences of the OP are perfect, IMO. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #10

That's not your call, and how do you know so much about meta? beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #12

I've been reading this board since '03. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #13

Didn't you get the memo? leftofcool Jan 2016 #114

Except that poster was the one attempting to silence cali by trying to get her thread locked. beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #117

That would work for mel pennylane100 Jan 2016 #138

I think a lot of old-time DUers did. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #86

Republicans were the target of DU attacks waaaaay back when. oasis Jan 2016 #87

Because the loudest who remain on this site are not Dems. MeNMyVolt Jan 2016 #89

Isn't a post calling out a post for calling out another post or thread "meta"? JDPriestly Jan 2016 #105

I worked for PP and Hillary with others have been great Friends lewebley3 Jan 2016 #178

I think it's wrong Armstead Jan 2016 #26

It was a silly move and it has potential to alienate some of the groups funders. I suppose they get Ed Suspicious Jan 2016 #30

do Sanders and OM donors to PP get a refund? Armstead Jan 2016 #35

I can't say I disagree. Ed Suspicious Jan 2016 #39

I hate to think that way but this pisses me off Armstead Jan 2016 #43

Let's see now. I support PP. I don't support Hillary, SheilaT Jan 2016 #36

Wow. You translate "I've supported PP for decades. I will continue supporting them" as cali Jan 2016 #119

Pretty much...otherwise why the OP? nt Sheepshank Jan 2016 #140

Seriously, the op makes it clear that I support PP. Furthermore, I don't cali Jan 2016 #146

of course you begrudge the endorsment Sheepshank Jan 2016 #147

Wow. Disgusting to tell me I begrudge the endorsement cali Jan 2016 #148
