Not here to fight? Have some courtesy and leave for a while.
To those who seem so eager to decide that we have to give up on every issue from abortion to gun control, I suggest that you see it in your heart to go away for a while. You want to see a civil war in our party? Fine, do it later. If you do not have the fortitude to fight for just another day, then I suggest that you back off and stay out of the way while those of us who clearly want it more fight to the last breath.

I for one will never believe that 12 million more people voted and that there were almost 4 million more who wanted *.

And a little note on those who seem to be saying that our party must turn anti-choice, anti-gun control and anti-gay..........they are republicans.

2. If you think Roe v Wade was wrong, are homphobic and think
there should be no controls on buying guns, then you should be.

You REALLY need to get your facts straight.

I'll allow for your new status here, but you might consider refraining from ridiculous posts like this if you don't know the peoson you're posting about.

You're SO far off base.

5. Being a gentleman, I cannot appropriately respond to your post.
But let me say this: the party's 'tent' is much larger than your stated positions.

3. Sorry, you have no say over
who posts what. I'll say what I want. You say what you want. Who are you to define the definition of fighting?

13. I have every right to ask people to back off.
There is a definition of fighting. I am using it. If you are here to concede, then by definition that is not fighting. If you are fighting, then I wasn't talking to you, so back off.

18. And we have every right to disagree with you...besides, I'm not sure
that DU supports members advocating that other members "go away for a while" because they don't agree with you.

6. When your companions get drunk and fight,
Take up your hat, and wish them good night.

8. I Think We Can Walk And Chew Gum At The Same Time..
We can be


pro choice

pro gay rights

and

pro affirmative action...


It's the packaging baby...

I love JFK. He used Bush as a punching bag in the first debate... He came a big state away from winning it all but there were candidates who might have been able to win a couple more red states...

9. I must have missed Skinner's post where he appointed you hall monitor.
My feeling is that those who feel the need to tell others to leave DU might be better off taking some time off themselves.

16. You know your right, DU should be left to those who are ready to
dismantle the party. Those who are not ready to give in don't belong on a board called Democratic Underground. What was I thinking. Now lets get to accepting that Bush doesn't cheat.

20. No, DU should be "left to" Democrats. Skinner's been pretty clear on that.
I'm afraid YOU don't get to decide who's a Democrat and who's not...at least not here.

10. I'll fight, by suggesting working solutions:
#1 DEBUNK RELIGION!!!!!

we must put an all out effort into showing people the falsness of religion if we EVER expect to appeal to rational humans

15. I disagree.
I am a Christian and I cannot debunk religion. There are differences in peoples interpretation of religion. I did yesterday and still do today believe Jesus was a liberal. I also think John Kerry and John Edwards are Christians and the right wing has labeled anyone not Repub.as a non Christian.
