7. done

i've taken it before. so it doesn't block your ip once it's taken. it's a flawed poll with no relevance.

[Apple Smoothie]

13. How do you re-take it??

[Chichiri]

8. Done, and thanks! (n/t)

9. kick

[montieg]

10. Thanks to all

for the welcomes and warms. Yall ought to know--as a Real, True, West Texan--unlike *, I feel two ways about this election: we got to beat this bastard--no, wait, I demean being illegitimate-- but, Damn! When we do he's probably gonna come back here. That's gonna suck out loud!

[yardwork]

15. Welcome to DU

It sounds like shrubby might not be all that welcome in Texas anymore. Maybe he'll go home to Connecticut. Not that I have anything against that state - it's just that it's where shrubby was born and raised.

[DemBones DemBones]

18. Haha -- yeah, don't taint all the people born out of wedlock

by calling Bush* a bastard!

Welcome to DU! :hi: We feel your pain about getting Dubya back but better there than in power. . .

14. Sheesh, freepers have gone nuts on this one.

[Demi_Babe]

16. Done

[DemBones DemBones]

17. It means to go vote in a poll, NOT to engage in

multiple voting, AKA freeping. It hasn't been discussed here in a long time so I'm glad you brought it up.

Most DUers oppose attempting to change a poll by voting multiple times. We support trying to change it by all going there and voting once.

(Yes, we need to hit back at them when they attack, and, sadly, we probably need professional mudslingers on the line of the SmearVets, but that doesn't mean we need to roll in the mud with the RW pigs.
