Barack Obama
In reply to the discussion: What Obama critics on DU don't get. [View all]freshwest
(53,661 posts)49. The OP has a simple premise. You are in the BOG, and moreover, you are very much:
Your slurs against the members of this group are unwarranted. Some post this at the beginning of threads here:
THIS IS THE BOG, IT IS A SAFE HAVEN GROUP CREATED BY THE ADMINISTRATORS OF DU. IT IS A PLACE FOR THOSE WHO SUPPORT DEMOCRATS TO CELEBRATE THE 44TH POTUS, BARACK OBAMA, ALONG WITH HIS FAMILY, ACHIEVEMENTS AND POLICIES.
IT EXISTS FOR THOSE WHO SUPPORT THIS PRESIDENT AND EACH OTHER. PLEASE CHECK THE PINNED THREAD FOR THE SOP (STATEMENT OF PURPOSE) OF THIS GROUP. THIS IS NOT A FORUM.
IF YOU CANNOT RESPECT OBAMA, DEMOCRATS, THE SPIRIT AND INTENT OF THIS GROUP, OR THE MEMBERS OF THIS GROUP, PLEASE DO NOT POST HERE.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
And since you are a personal acquaintance of Obama, please convey your concerns in person with him. We await hearing your report of his response, as relayed by you.
The SoS has a website of 790 TPP documents translated into over a hundred languages as this is a deal in process. It's not secret and you are reacting to rumors. I am eager to hear what you have to verify your charges, but I will not speak to you again HERE.
