My swan song, come get your grave dancing on, if that's your thing.
 
So I'm leaving. The site and the party. There are some great people here, but I had probably two thirds of the site on ignore, and came to realize that if folks on here are truly representative of the modern Democratic Party, I no longer have much in common with it.

Nearly three decades of voting Democratic by default in every race, only voting third party a handful of times over the years, and now, going forward, if I ever again vote for a Democrat, it will be in spite of them being one, not because of it. I imagine I'll be leaving a lot of races unmarked from here on out. But if I want nothing to do with most of the people who post here in support of foreign wars, undeclared war drone strikes, voter suppression as long as it works in their favour, spying on all Americans, sending those who bring government misdeeds to light to jail, sacrificing the poor in 'grand bargains' or 'reforms', keeping the minimum wage lower than it has to be, fracking all over the world, pushing unlabeled GMO food into every part of the food supply, toppling left wing foreign governments through military coups, and a host of other issues that seem to have been embraced by the modern Democratic Party, well, then, it's time for me to quit 'polluting' the Democratic Party with my presence, in either primary or general elections.

So congrats to all of those who spent their time writing sneering comments about myself and others not being 'real Democrats', who were angry because I and others like me dared to support a candidate who actually believed in the ideals the Democratic Party used to believe in, who wanted to stop all injustices, not just those that won votes. You made it a self-fulfilling prophecy. I'm not a Democrat of any sort any more, and never again will be. Enjoy your ever-shrinking tent.

I expect this to be locked quickly, and my account PPR'ed in a flash, so gravedance fast.

Due to chronic butt-hurt he's had me on Ignore for a long time, so it's not like he'll see my comment anyway.

Further, I have no respect for look-at-me GBCW posts, especially when they're transparent attempts to generate sympathy, praise, and weepy requests to stay.

Maybe we can go through it all again when he makes his triumphant return in a few weeks, the way most GBCW-ers do.

If you're going to leave, then leave, but spare us the crass and grandiose displays.

What in Hades did he put in his :stoner: ?! Much as I disagree with the D Party, they've never been as far out there as The Bern! That's why The Bern has been an independent all these years. EB seems to have discovered that the ideals he attributed to the D Party were only the attributes of the D Party of his :stoner: -addled imagination. And can't/won't admit he was wrong about the real-life D Party.

Referencing the portion in red: If you think DU is representative of normal, every day democRATS, here's a clue. IT AIN'T. You people are far left socialists intent on bring the philosophy of Marx, Lenin, Stalin and Bernie to 2016 America so you can say you did socialism better and knew what you were doing.

You don't. You are all freakin idiots of the highest order, boarding on nuclear powered stupid.
Liberals disgust me. (Now I don't have to remember to put it on each post).

Because only the left goes searching for that which is not there in a desperate attempt to be offended about something.

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams
