We see once again DUmmies are not welcoming to different points of view.

They say they are.  They say they treat GOP the same as everyone else.  But, they lie.  They don't like Green Party types either.  From the META, with the link so lurking DUmmies can see for themselves:

Does voting for the Green Party's Jill Stein for President disqualify me for membership at DU?

13. Short answer: Yes.

There are more, mostly similar to those.  Edited to add:  The posters listed above are all Democrats who post regularly on DemocraticUnderground.

You lose your right to your own opinion when you sign up, DUmmie.  Everyone knows that.

Wait, wait wait. The democrats who post at DemocraticUnderground.com always say they're open to everyone.

And a Green party voter would have many of the same world views as the kind, compassionate, caring, embracing, most smartest people in the world universe.

So you mean to tell me that the democrats who post at DemocraticUnderground.com reject their own?

Color me shocked. :whatever:

Dear xedniw. Welcome to DU.
Vote "R". Your chances are far better.

The members of the Democrat Party that post at DemocratUnderground.com are liars. They claim to be have compassion while showing more hate than their fellow Democrat Party members in the Westboro Baptist Church. They claim to be tolerant while banning anyone who dares have a different opinion than that of the hive mind. They claim to be reality based while presenting ideas and theories that are so off the wall a Saturday morning Looney Tunes cartoon would discard them for being too far fetched.

Though the members of the Democrat Party that post at DemocratUnderground.com are liars, I can not say with certainty if their lying is by choice or if it is pathological and just another of their many mental illnesses.

Exdniw, a Democrat who posts at DemocraticUnderground, is no longer a Democrat who posts at DemocraticUnderground.  He/she/Pat has now been voted off the island of Democrats who post at DemocraticUnderground.  A different point of view is not tolerated there.

He is, but it sure is funny when he pokes the Nadster.

I can't really criticize the DUmmies.  After the screwing-over Nader gave to Gore in 2000, the Green Party must get the same reception at the DUmp as Ron Paul does here.
