Engels still has rate/rec privileges? Yeah, I won't hold my breath for Jerome to remove these peoples' ratings abilities for rec'ing personal attacks and derogatory Republican nicknames ("Obamabot"). Obama supporters' rec privileges were pulled for rec'ing far less acerbic content back during the primaries, though.
Read the Diary again.
Yeah - watch me write a diary about "Clintonazis" and see how well that's received.
Your diary, and mine, would work as a quick intelligence test; anyone who recs either is a moron.
btw, can anyone point out a decent diary to rec so we can get this pos off the front page? I know, I'm acting like a total secret muslim, but I can't help it.
That sounds an awful lot like white supremacist "not all black people are n***s" line. Troll off.
I was thinking the same thing. Or "not all gay people are fags" or "no, I'm talking about bull-dykes, not lesbians...
Since Obama supporters are not a historically oppressed group, it's not really comparable but for one thing - it allows people to use offensive words and engage in group smearing.
It's just weak-minded cover when you know you're shooting your mouth off but can't control yourself.
I see that KnowVox is back, and in fine ratings-abuse form.
Dead-ender, take your comments to hillaryis44.org
Not all Clinton supporters are dead-enders.
Now I'm going to go right a diary about how I can't stand dead-enders who come to this website, rec diaries, spread smears and leave, and if any Clinton supporter complains I'll just say I wasn't talking about them.
... the first few comments so strongly affirmed its premise that I ended up reccing it.
on your pro-McCain shitstain of a website.
Your kind ain't welcome here.
1. The Confluence is not a pro-McCain website.
2. The Confluence is a refuge you and like-minded made necessary, through your totalitarian determination to dictate orthodoxy by repressing expression of divergent thought.
3. In order that we may continue discuss our own views within this refuge, it's necessary to enforce stie standards vigorously against trolls, vandals and insult artists.
4. As large numbers of more aggressive disrupters have taken interest in the site, using universally-despised tactics such as sockpuppetry, it has been necessary to apply increasingly low tolerance to suspect posts.
5. You're not authorized to determine who is or isn't welcome here, any more than you are to play Thread Boss at The Confluence ... are you?
I don't mean to tell you your business, but shouldn't you be out collecting donations to free the political prisoner Larry Sinclair and examining Barack Obama's birth certificate to prove that he was actually a genetically enhanced suicide bomber created by the Taliban? Come on PUMA, let's hear you roar! Enough with this wussy blog stuff.
Barack Obama and enable the election of John McCain as President.
That's it.
So, yes, people willing to screw the environment, the Constitution, and our soldiers in Iraq do face an incredibly hostile atmosphere in progressive circles.
Whether this makes you a loyal McCainiac or merely one of his useful idiots is immaterial.
You are supporting Bush's tax cuts.
You are supporting the continuation of the war in Iraq, and the start of a war with Iran.
You are supporting 2-3 more Alito's on the Supreme Court.
You are opposing meaningful healthcare reform.
Your candidate lost a primary race, and you don't care if you have to punish the entire planet to exact your petty, pathological need for revenge.
You are the enemy, regardless of what sophistry-cated bullcrap you spew on behalf of it.
Your agenda is anathema to all things progressive.
"Friends don't let friends vote Republican"
That's riverdaughter's byword. (rd is proprietress of The Confluence.)
Geekesque believes politics is a dirty business, and plays in only one way -- dirty.
Oddly enough, the entire conservative/Republican movement depends on the general populous joining in this beleif, which predisposes them to eschew the inputs, process and outputs of politics (civic engagement, electoral participation, public debate, taxes, regulation, programs, public works and public services) and leave collective judgments to apathy and/or the market.
Progressive political change, on the other hand, depends on reservoirs of popular trust in these same elements.
Geekesque is determined to win one race (or even one argument) by deceit and abuse, even if it means poisoning the wellsprings of progressivism.

<Yes, I support McCain over Obama (none / 0)</p>

For similar reasons, I'll oppose Obama for any office, any time, ever ... and McCain will have my vote IF Obama is the nominee.
You are a de facto Republican.
As is your habit.
You left this out:
I support progressive politics. I believe Obama will do irreparable harm to progressive politics, whereas McCain will only be another horrible POTUS in another dreary interval of divided government.
Now, what does this have to do with your slander against The Confluence?
The window dressing you apply to it is irrelevant. One side sit Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton, and on the other side sits Newt Gingrich and Tom DeLay.
You're sitting between Newt and The Hammer.
You foul your own nest.
Uh, guy, you've got 'ass' in you sig.
