There is nothing that I have said that is anything like what you have accused me of. You have twisted my words and taken them out of context. It is obvious to me and others that you continually bait and insult me. You are a very manipulative person and I can only guess your motives.

Why don't you get all of my almost 20,000 posts and pick and choose everything that you think I might have said in your odd way of thinking, and let others view exactly how you tick.

You are a vindictive dark person. Leave me alone.

Tiff, personal attacks are not allowed.

I have to ask both you and Bluespark, what are you trying to accomplish here ? Seriously what is the point of bringing these posts that have been plaster all over the ship since yesterday ? To drive the knife in deeper ? Has there been racism in this race, yes. Has there been sexism yes.

I am seriously dissapponted that Obama's message is being cheapened and dragged through the dirt in the manner. To me this all seems so personal hate for Hillary and has nothing to do with the election. I may not agree that she is my first choice, but for God sakes, they are both trying to defeat the Republicans. This is hurting the Dems, this bickering, negative attacks on each other. We are loosing sight of the goal !!!

Your post here is an extreme violation of the mission statement and general rules of posting.

You are a long time member here, and certainly know better than to launch such a vicious personal attack.

Your account is suspended for 30 days.

Here is what I see.

BO people "our canidate is winning we should all be pulling for him."

HC people "But our canidate is better she should be winning"

BO people "but she is not winning so lets pull for BO"

HC peoplw "but even though your canidate is winning he is not realy ecletable your saport is wrong minded and you realy sheiuld be for HC becouse she is the better canidate,"

BO people " How dare you tell us who we should be behind and by the way BO is winning"

HC people "But we know the HC is the better canidate so she should win some how some one is going to give this to her and show you that you are wrong"

BO people "But we are winning what do we have to do we are winning let it go"

This argument gose on and one and only get more deviceve. The question those of us who are democrates here should be asking now is how do we come together to win in November.

If you had asked me in Jan I would have said that HC was walking away with the Dem nom and the Reb would be tareing them selves apart this realy cought me off gaurd.

Well I hope things get better form here.

By the way I think HC should have her 4 delagets why do that it dose not realy change anything and only helps make people angry at each other. That was a silly error that the party is going to pay for.

I have already posted my thoughts on this, but I do have one thing to add. Everybody knew the rules going into this thing, now the rules are ignored. Why bother having a primary if the outcome will not be decided by the voters?

On the one hand, you could say, yeah, the two states knew going in they were breaking the rules, and the DNC had the right to penalize them. On the other, though, the voters of the state didn't have anything to do with that, and they want their votes counted. In that regard, their anger is understandable. Why should they be penalized for what their stupid party did?

True, but what about the people that didn't vote because of the rule? There is no way of knowing which candidate would have won those states, so who should get the votes?

I don't care who is to blame, it doesn't matter. The fact remains that the rule was in place and it should be followed.

They should NOT have seated any of the delegates in either Michigan or Florida. Those were the rules that everybody agreed to at the outset. This crowd of PTB, have formed a dictatorship all of their own here. The rules were clear and all of the candidates agreed to them. They should have stuck to them. Or, they should have found a way to allow both States a re vote.

Seating all of the delegates would not have been fair either, as there were variables, i.e. voters who didn't vote, believing that their votes wouldn't count.

This half assed decision is incompetent and biased in the knowledge that only one candidate could benefit at this juncture in the Primaries.

Corruption continues on... will it ever end? :rolleyes:

It's your board Miss Linnea, and you certainly have the right to make and enforce the rules.

However, should they not be enforced equally...across the board?

The following is part of a direct, personal and ongoing attack on me by Kaz and not a word, not a single warning was issued, much less a suspension:
Biker, you don't just sound cold and crass, but also classless and shameless.

I would have hoped that members of this forum would not stoop to such a frankly disgusting, and pathetic level.
And more:
Yes, your post was classless, shameless, disgusting and pathetic. And yes, I am personally calling you on it - consequences be damned in this case.
Is this a case in which all animals are created equal but some are more equal than others?

Hmmmm?

Why the preferential treatment?

I think there's a distinction there -- calling someone's language or post "creepy" or whatever is not the same as calling someone a "creep."

See the difference?

HB has it exactly right.

There is a lot of leeway here, especially in the p&g thread - but there needs to be some limit.

It is true Kaz's post was skating just above that limit.

Tiff has been a personal punching bag for months now. I'm sorry to see that her account has been suspended for 30 days. :confused:
