So, I was just over in DUmmieLand to see if their "Forum Lurker Ban" has been lifted. It's not, but on their front page they had this to say... I ended up ROFLMAO!!! :) enjoy...

This is a pretty diverse group of people, and it's clear that people are going to deal with this election defeat in different ways. Some members are going to come to DU looking for a shoulder to cry on. Others are going to come here looking for a fight. Still others may have completely different feelings entirely. We believe that it is understandible and healthy for people to feel angry or sad or whatever. We do not think it is possible for us to force people to deny their feelings right now, and we're not even going to try (except in the most extreme cases). However, it is clear that certain types of emotions do no mix well on a busy message board like this one. We have decided that the only feasible solution is to enforce a segregation between the people who want a shoulder to cry on, and the people who want an ass to kick.
With this in mind, the two General Discussion forums have been re-named. The "General Discussion: Help and Support" forum is for those people who are looking for help and support. If you feel sad, or if you are the type of person who thinks that we're all in this together, then that is the forum for you. But if you are feeling very angry about the election, or if you are feeling like pointing fingers and placing blame, you should post in the other GD forum, the "General Discussion: Fighting and Acrimony" forum.
We know that it is not possible to make everyone happy, but we hope that this rough split will provide people with a choice so you can decide what type of message board experience that you need right now. All you have to do is decide which forum to post your topic in. I think everyone here is capable of making that choice.

There was no joy in Mudville . . .
Mighty Kerry had struck out.
IT'S NO LONGER A BLUE WORLD, MAX!!
Grape Kool-Aid or Cherry Kool-Aid?
Someone on another board said DU had two new forums now: 'Crybabies' and 'finger pointers'.
What was really fun today was to listen to Ed Schultz & Randi Rhodes!
I just smiled real big and laughed my ass off!
Classic. A timeless liberal loser play. Cry, cry, cry DUmmies, you deserve to be miserable after all the crap you pulled in this election. Viva Bush.
We really should throw them a party...
If you bring the cool-aid, I'll bring the rat poison and dixie cups...
I'm confused. I thought everything over there was fighting and acrimony.
Hahahaha. . .a group-hug section??!!
Hahahaha. . .a section where they can throw a childish, sissy hissy-fit.
Ya just gotta LUV those DU guys. . .they are a laugh riot!!
"Lighten up, Francis"
but i thought they were about embracing everyone regardless of their differences...oops guess not
Lurked over at DUmmieland last night and earlier today. What a pitiful, agnst ridden bunch or losers...Isn't gloating wonderful...too bad they closed the door to us nonbelievers.
Does anyone have a login/password to back into DUmmieland?
The DUmmies are in favor of segregation??
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry myself after I watched it! She said, "Especially first time voters - they are so saddened. In fact, I saw two young women who were crying on the street today because of Senator Kerry's loss." (not exact quote, but close).
Now, seriously, if Kerry had (by some miracle of election fraud) won this thing, would MSNBC have a segment on how the pubbies could deal with their grief? CAN THE BIAS BE ANY MORE OBVIOUS????? DUH!!!
I caught that right away...someone ping the ACLU. he he he he. I just can't get the smile off my face...I just can't...I've stopped trying....he he he he he he he
