Today, I am ashamed to be a DU member
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x6817602

I've been here a long time. Not a prolific poster, but a prolific reader. And from what I've read today, I don't belong here anymore.

Women being bashed for their right to choose having a family and a career with the support of their spouse.

Women being called sluts, bimbos and brood mares.

Women having their appearance dissected and witchhunts for compromising photos.

Innocent young girls being slandered with rumors & innuendos.

Enough. I want to win. But I don't want to win this way. And if you do, then I don't want any part of it.

5. Vast majority of posters are very respectful. How come you didn't leave DU when trolls 
 made racist comments about the Obamas?
 

I don't remember the hilbots calling barry a dirty n*****.

 Seriously, you shoot up schadenfreude like it's pure Afghan heroin. I can think of one other more miserable person on this board. OK, I lied, it's a tie.

25. Wrong
 The poster is not defening Palin; she's defending principles and procedure. Why is that so hard to understand? You can attack Palin all you want, as long as you restrict it to issues/policy/positions. But to get into bashing of her because of her appearance or her choice not to stay home with her kids, etc. verges on personal attacks that we ourselves would decry if done against a female Dem.


They will not see the logic.

12. ??? Innocent young girls being slandered
 If Palin is lying, repeatedly on the public record about her pregnancy, it's very much a matter of public concern.

That was the thing with John Edwards. Not what happened but 1. He deliberately and repeatedly mislead the public and 2., knowing the history of Gary Hart and others, willfully put the Democratic Party at risk, and in doing so the Republic.

Sarah Palin's candidacy, gives every indication of not being properly vetted.


See?

18. IF?
 This is an innocent 17 year old girls reputation that's being bashed.

Newsflash. Teenagers surf the net. They love to gossip. Do you have any how devasting this will be to her daughter once these "rumors" get out? Palin is a big girl and she will address what needs addressing. But her kid? You really think this is OK?


I think B2G is soon for the cemetary.

39. There's no comparison
 Chelsea was inundated with lies. Chelsea is not a public figure. Questioning whether Palin lied about her pregnancy, the pregnancy she said was hers, is questioning statement by a public official on the public record.

Why would she lie, Not so much to protect her daughter. She portrays her self as a super moral fundamentalist, and a model mom. "Saint Sarah" they call her up there. If she is lying she is protecting HER own political career. 


Of course, that fact that this hatefilled 'rumor' was started by leftist ****s has nothing to do with it.

21. The power of stupid has been strong here today. I think people are giddy 
 from last night and from the gift of an utterly inexperienced VP pick on the other side. Once they sober up, hopefully they'll realize how stupid some of their posts were.

Nope it is because you forget that you post in a fishbowl and the true character of DUmmies can not be hid.

Wait! Are they are trying to say that Palin's fifth child is actually her daughters kid ? Is this correct ? I don't even know where to begin with this stupidity.

Its as if I am in a forest and I'm given the mission to cut the whole thing down with a hammer.

Yes, that is a common "rumor" suddenly.  Someone heard it on some radio show, so of course, it must be true.  After all, everyone knows that a teenager is much more likely to have a child with DS than a woman over 40.   :thatsright:

Yeah, and while she was campaigning and being a governor, she had a pillow under her shirt.  :lmao:
