7. If President Obama had a Democratic Congress to work with, I wouldn't worry about the future at all.

But, he doesn't, and the mid-term elections are less than 100 days away.

I think that this got more support in GD because that is where all of the troublemakers go to spew anti-Obama bs at DU.
If people want to act silly, stand up on their 2 hind legs, and roar like a mouse, that's where they go to spew anti-Obama nonsense.
I'm accustomed to it by now.
Skinner doesn't care, and I have learned . . over time . . that I don't either.

I figure that if those members want to spew Rand Paul talking points in the GD, fine.
I just put them on ignore.
If they want to sound like they are Sean Insanity followers, fine.
I put them on ignore, too.
And when they get too big for their britches and they think they are some special deep thinker who spews crap on his own personal site, and then comes to DU to repeat that same, lame crap here, fine.
I ignore him, too.

To be honest about the current situation in GD, I have put more members on ignore in the last 2 or 3 months than in all of the 10 previous years combined!!
I don't expect anyone to be banned for spewing anti-Obama crap at DU anymore.
