I would like to propose a new Democratic Underground feature.
I believe that, with language-recognition software as advanced as it currently is, it should be possible if not simple to implement a systematic block allowing you to only declare one time that you are no longer going to financially support or volunteer for (DU/The DNC/Barack Obama/Whoever). I have noticed that a certain sort of person likes to declare this every few weeks, citing the latest manufactured-outrage scandal. I assume the problem is that they are very forgetful, and simply do not remember their previous statements regarding discontinuation of funding. A feature such as this would help them save their valuable time, and would allow them to put that time to use continuing their unending struggle against their party in better ways.

7. That's right, we're talking to YOU!
I just alerted your latest "Hillary should be the nominee because Obama has cooties" thread right before it was locked.

Maybe, just maybe, it should be you that takes a hike!
