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.

That's a riot!LOL
Where do the f'ing clowns that claimed they would move out of this country if W won go to? They don't have a MoveOn thread explaining the best countries to move to? What a worthless site.

Rolling On Floor Laughing My A$$ Off
Son, I understand what you are saying, but the people at DU aren't normal middle of the road Democrats. Very often they are loose cannons who wish to use violence. They are hard core socialist/communists, and more importantly they are hilarious. Go over there in a few weeks and read and you'll see what I mean.
These people compared our President to Hitler, call our troops baby killers, want to tax my kids live's away from them and you are worried about their feelings getting hurt?
Today is a day for spiking the ball in the endzone and plundering the enemy's camp. If you want "reconcilation" and "healing" then figure out a way get them to accept morality as way of life. They hate us for our ideals, not becuase we chose to gloat at their misfortune during a hard fought victory celebration.
To quote their Grand Poobah Leader, Bill "Feel Your Pain" Clinton...."I feel your pain!"
Well, actually I DID feel your pain....like between 1992 and 2000. Eight long years of Clintonhood.
What goes around comes around. Bush is in, Dashole is out, and Arafat is on the way out.
Life is good!!!
Rollin' on the floor laughing my Pajama Bottoms Off??? :)
This is your first and only post? We have been defending this man for four years, we can't have a day to Gloat?
Two groups is not enough. What if you want to kick shoulder or cry on somebody's ass?
Chronph, the very people who are weeping and incosolable now are the ones who would have put on the brown shirts and started taking away your freedoms had their man won. Their passion and emotion runs both ways, and their sadness now is an indication of the vile orgy of liberalism they would have instituted under a Kerry administration.
Get a grip son. We need to bring on the next revolution while I'm still young enough to see well enough to shoot them at a distance. Besides we have all the guns ... for now.
Oh, that is so DYSFUNCTIONAL! I love it! Bwaaaahhaaaahaaa!
