Why DU is destined to fail (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x1076304)
- While some of you are open to ideas most are narrow minded and refuse to see further than what is directly ahead.
-You have no ability to cooperate with Republicans, therefore your beliefs will never be seen as actions.
- Your intolerance makes you unable to see faults in your own party or to give credit to someone of the opposition who isn't Abe Lincoln.
- You've managed to make no real impact except attending rallies as one of many and writing meaningless letters to political leaders.
- You are known in political circles as a bunch of extreme-leftist nutcases, and even those leaders you support think you are irrational.
- How do I know all this?
I volunteered in Obama's Senatorial Administration for 2 years and saw the responses to some DU letters. There is not a single prominent political leader who would ever ask advice of the DU community.

15. Because it's fun to skitter back to their friends and try to post a link...
...it's almost as good as faking being a Navy SEAL.

67. I'm sorry
Did I offend you? 63 responses in less than 15 minutes. Must have hit right where it hurts. And never was fired, left for business school. Get over yourselves and start facing reality.
None of the responses were memorable.

77. Not everyone disagrees with you..........
I don't think that the bourgeosie power structure pays ANY attention to left leaning people. Neither Democrats or Republicans at the elite level gives a rat's ass what the progressive side thinks.
Which is why I'm a revolutionary Marxist. In spite of what you and your little capitalist social circle think, there's still more of us than there are of you.

I'm sure media exposure for the DUmp would make democrat politicians happy.
Luckily for them, the only "media" that has heard of the DUmp are other moonbat blog sites like kos, rawstory, and truthout.

Thanks. The thread can be locked now.

Your disdain for poor people has been made very clear.

Yes, yes they are. They can all play with their private parts and pick their nose at the same time.

Intelligento has a blog, it was posted at DU and then fell to the bottom of the page.
American Political Economy (http://talkpoliec.blogspot.com/)
He's a Harvard man, the post at the top concerns DU.

I fixed it for the soon to be TS'ed poster. The OP speaks truth to power, and not one single DUmmie even tries to prove him wrong.

Thank you my friends, this group seems a lot more supportive and open minded than the DU- joined there mainly to express economic thoughts because I was unaware of the existence of this site- we need to try to garner more support here

We have no problem with dissenting opinions here, and just don't take dissent personally, and you should do fine.

And we see how well that worked out, now don't we, DUmmies?
A small bit of advice for ya, DUmmies and those who think people like yourselves matter--when an INCUMBENT politician in a Democrat-majority district can't pull 40 percent when running for reelection, you're a ****ing loser idiot.
Oh, and Carol "Che" Shea-Porter? Don't laugh, hon--42 percent ain't much better, but it WILL be fun watching YOU try to get your seat back, you dumbass.

You are now officially a freeper troll. Regardless of your personal politics or opinions, this is The Site Which Must Not Be Named at the DUmp (along with one or two others). Don't be surprised if things go badly for you at Skinner's Island of Misfit Toys.

Indeed - nothing the primitives hate more than anyone they perceive as a traitor - and that now includes you. Anyhow.. Welcome, welcome.

- While some of you are open to ideas most are narrow minded and refuse to see further than what is directly ahead.
And here is where 80% of the nameles, faceless mob of DUmbshits tuned out and went back to the bong. Too much like looking in a friggin' mirror.
-You have no ability to cooperate with Republicans, therefore your beliefs will never be seen as actions.
And this Heresy is where he lost the rest of 'em.
- Your intolerance makes you unable to see faults in your own party or to give credit to someone of the opposition who isn't Abe Lincoln.

- How do I know all this... blah... blah... blah...
Well, That all depends on what one assumes the FUNCTION of the DemocraticUnderground.com website is. If you think that it's a platform for Dhimmi'Rat rank and file to affect change and influence their legislative and other elected representatives, then you're correct: they're about as effective as a beer fart would be in affecting change in an F5 tornado.
If, however, you come to the realization that Skinner's Island of Misfits & ****-ups reason for being is to attract and contain the, ummm... "less photogenic" :lmao: faces of the Dhimmi'Rat party, then you begin to understand the sheer genius of the DLC hack that thought this up. The DUmp has succeeded far beyond their wildest expectations, once you understand the true metrics that it is to be measured by.

No less significant is the intellectual outlook of the rank and file in the communist and fascist movements in Germany before 1933. The relative ease with which a young communist could be converted into a Nazi or vice versa was well known, best of all to the propagandists of the two parties. The communists and Nazis clashed more frequently with each other than with other parties simply because they competed for the same type of mind and reserved for each other the hatred of the heretic. Their practice showed how closely they are related. To both, the real enemy, the man with whom they had nothing in common, was the liberal of the old type. While to the Nazi the communist and to the communist the Nazi, and to both the socialist, are potential recruits made of the right timber, they both know that there can be no compromise between them and those who really believe in individual freedom.

Radicalism in the US
Much of my thesis research revolved around radical Islamism in the Middle East, in particular Iran. However, there is a sort of radicalism in the US as well, and these are radical Democrats. Not only are they intolerant of the ideas of anyone but themselves, but they give the party a poor name with their intolerance. Working for Obama from 2005-2007, I had some experience dealing with the idealogies of these extremists. Much more recently, however, I have been reading a message board/forum sort of site called Democratic Underground- the site advertises itself as a political discussion site, but it is far from just that. This site produces some of the most narrow-minded Democrats one could possibly think of, people unable to see faults in their own party, and unable to give credit to anyone of the opposition. Fortunately for America, these radicals are but a small minority of the large Democratic population with realistic goals and open ears. Let us hope they see the light in this day or the next.

Welcome, and excellent thread at the DUmp. :bow:

You went at it wrong. You should have told them they were highly intelligent and had the ear of prominent Dem leaders. They believe non-sense like that and eat it up. You just told them they were freaks, which is the truth, but freaks don't want to be told they're freaks, they want to be told everyone else are the freaks.

Well I went to your blog sir. Excerpt of the top post was this and I didn't read anymore of it:
Was Killing Osama a Violation of International Law?
Many right-wingers believe so...
Sorry sir. I see no real evidence of this. UBL dead! (http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php/topic,58560.0.html)
I am predicting you will not like it here if you stay though I doubt you will be banned unless you cross the line. I hope you can take the heat because I think you are going to get a lot of it.
Having said all that... welcome!

Where the hell did you get that assumption, Intel? I know of no "right winger" that thinks it violated "international law". Most "right wingers" think "international law" is a bunch or bullshit. I didn't think this was a state secret. It's not like we hide our views.

"Marc, you are a professor of African American studies. I am a lawyer. There is no such thing as international law."

Great point, as always, by Coulter. And if "international law" existed, it would be whatever America says it should be. The wealth and power of the United States, as always, trumps the rest of the riffraff world.
