they feel restrained by nothing now. one says impeachment the next says war crimes trial for Obama followed by speculation about a military mutiny if they are ordered to attack Syria.

Not that we don't have our own homegrown nuts, but you know a lot of them are Koch implants here to make the entire progressive movement look just as bad as the RW baggers. Doing a bangup job of it too.
I consider myself personally to the left of Kucinich, but I'm a solidarity Democrat first and foremost. Right now that other bunch is embarrassing me.

Just finished a thread where at least 5 times I had to check that I hadn't been hacked by Fox Nation.

When we allow hatred into our disagreements, we are teabaggers.

...Hi BOG folks...been a member of the group and following things here since nearly the beginning but have never felt the need to post. Today is different...I'm pretty much fed up. I used to enjoy DU where you'd get to discuss and debate...albeit sometimes a bit heated...but there was always a certain decorum that has all but vanished in recent months. When I log on here it's one strong smell of negative and very few positive things to read. I've found it harder to log onto this place (not that anyone cares)...and now plan on taking a very, very long DU vacation. Here's wishing you all the best in fighting the good fight...

The vile language, the frothing hatred, the poisonous distrust of anything from the White House. Someone out there is surely cackling: Mission Accomplished.
