I had a hide a few weeks ago. I was called by a jury member one of the worst bullies on DU. They went on to say that my post was mindless bitchiness.

"Not only that, sheshe's one of the nastiest bullies at DU. This isn't the first time I've seen her attack someone. I hope this post is hidden and the one it was replying to gets alerted on as it's just as bad. DU should be better than this mindless bitchiness. "

They hide behind the anonymity of the system and try to destroy and ridicule a poster. They are not allowed to do that on the board...yet they do it on jury. Fair and balanced jury. Not! That was ugly.

Laura...it was a post about Obama and Sotu and children.
