1. Good man.

We need more Graysons.

[Historic NY]

2. works for me.

[pacalo]

3. I love the graphic!

[NorthCarolina]

4. This guy is everything I want a politician to be. Intelligent, edgy, and LIBERAL!!! nt

[Orrex]

5. Love it, but is this one right?

Missing a "not," perhaps?

[Beartracks]

7. I hate it when people can't proofread their stuff.

ESPECIALLY when they're making an otherwise excellent point.

:mad:

It makes them seem less than competent in the eyes of those to whom that very point needs to get made.

==========================

9. Wha'? Yeah that sux

these are not mine but I will try to fix it and repost

[Beartracks]

16. I didn't mean to sound like I was blaming you! :)

I know the mistake wasn't yours. :wave:

I was just thinking how we denigrate the teabaggers for their atrocious signs and posts. At least we have the benefit of knowing that, even if their signs demonstrated good grammar and spelling, the messages are still based on misinformation and racism. I would just like to be sure that messages from the LEFT, which can persuade with facts and other valuable perspectives, don't get derailed by typos.

Then again, I'm a writer of sorts, so maybe errors just bug me more than most. But the omission in that panel actually reversed the meaning of the sentence!

======================

20. Oh, no, Beartracks, no offense is taken, although I was disappointed

to see that it was in fact an error. I feel as you do. :( It was a big mistake! I posted in haste in response and could've worded things better. :blush: I was strapped for time. I'm doing my graduate studies in Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling and we are currently reviewing ADA, rehab legislation, etc., *sigh* and I'm finding my brain is not as sharp as it used to be...


I have sent a message asking the originator of the photos/graphics to correct the error.

8. I just relistened to the video clip and the graphic is NOT correct~Here's the clip

Here's the clip for those who missed it: http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2011/10/08/alan_grayson_proud_spokesman_of_government_assistance.html
Thanks for pointing that out - missed it the first time
I will try to fix it later but these are not my graphics

[pacalo]

6. Emit, I'm just testing here to see if the bottom part of the graphic improves...

Won't happen with Photobucket. Will have to crop each photo to resize.

[Emit]

10. Yeah, I wanted to change that before I posted but frankly I am really supposed to be studying right

now not lurking on DU - just wanted to get this important message from Grayson out there

[Beartracks]

17. Studying politics?? ;) n/t

[Rageneau]

11. Grayson for OWS spokesman!

For OWS, the next step is to hone a message, promote it, and defend it.

Who could do that better than Alan Grayson?

[L0oniX]

12. K & R

[inna]

13. Standing ovation! My only criticism is...

... tiny font!!

[Marie Marie]

14. Alan Grayson rocks my world!

How do we clone this man?

[applegrove]

15. Love it.

[slay]

18. Fucking awesome

always hated that hack pj o'rourke.

[Admiral Loinpresser]

19. If anybody wants to draft him

for the Dem nomination, I am with you! We need a sea change in the direction Democratic Party. Maybe Obama will do more than try to co-opt OWS, but so far he shows no evidence of remorse for his corporate-friendly policies. Unless and until he does, I support Alan Grayson or someone else with a reality-based platform.

[Blue Owl]

21. Take that PJ O'Dork

Alan Grayson sounds more American than a thousand PJ O'Dorks.
