*********************BARACK OBAMA GROUP RULES APPLY**********************************

Note: This is the BOG, a safe haven group created by the DU Admins. Please read the SOP.
Lurkers, please respect the SOP. If you don't understand the SOP, please PM a host and it will be explained to you. Thank you kindly in advance.




Give me a fucking break.

Quoted for 100% truth:

The word *Folks* is a problem? Give me a fucking break!

to Freshwest !

[sheshe2]

1. Yup! eom

[freshwest]

2. Aw, trash thread is your friend! Some threads deserve it. And don't bring that here!

[steve2470]

3. ok I won't next time, sorry :/ nt

[steve2470]

4. sincere apology to the group

I won't post this kind of negativity to the group any more. As you can understand, I get really frustrated but, yes, TRASH THREAD and FULL IGNORE are my friends.

My sincerest apologies. Have a wonderful day, fellow President Barack Obama admirers.

10. Well, I understand, but the last time it was done so directly, every troll came out from their

respective bridges, some one-post wonders, to abuse the members here and dump feces.

Really abusive stuff, and when juried, the posts were allowed to stand because, you know, Obama = Evil. So we had to add BOG to posts.

I prefaced or added warning message to explain this is a safe haven. And even said yes, we are BORG, come and be assimilated.

Every one of those outrage threads convince me that The Idiocracy is here. They lower your IQ as you read the grunts and squeals of the posters high-fiving nothing.

NanceGreggs did a great dissection of the blatantly incorrect outrage over the word sanctimonious. These folks, yes, folks, are going to give the Senate to the GOP.

11. ok I amended this thread to make it painfully obvious

I'm still kinda new, learning the ropes, so thanks

[freshwest]

12. Well done. I edited my reply to you to show my support, too. Take a read.

[steve2470]

13. thanks, you added some good stuff

Absolutely no one can come here and NOT know what this group is all about. I admit, I didn't do a proper warning label, but will do so from now on. I was actually pretty lucky my thread didn't turn into WW3 here with all the BS outrage over "folks". Whew, dodged a bullet.

[freshwest]

15. Still, I'd've written: The word *Folks* is a problem? Give me a fucking break!

Because our lurkers will be going over there and doing their regular thing...

Don't get me wrong, I'm not concerned with having to confront them in G-D, but this is a place people come for sanity.

G-D ceased to respect logic or facts, much less civility. It's a coalition of mobs at the present time. Most of the memes and even sources are RW, so it's not like anyone with half a brain doesn't know what's up with that.

5. Well, I did follow the link and pin back some ears over there while I was at it anyway.

Didn't reference the link source, though.

[steve2470]

6. you rock

As I said above, I won't post my frustrations here any more. I'm sure we all have them.

[IrishAyes]

8. Thank you. I've learned my own lesson about that too. We weren't 'bad' in any way,

just temporarily unaware. I will however invite you to revisit that link to see what I said to the OP. It wasn't very delicate. I should be ashamed of enjoying it so much.

7. That thread was among

the biggest pieces of BS I've seen anyone be mad with the President about. These people refuse to give him a break on anything! He talks like that all the time! And how is him using "folks" even relevant to torture, anyway? I expect Republicans to spin the wheel of outrage over some nonsense, but to see this on DemocraticUnderground just has me SMH.

9. "Folksgate"! From the

"Gotcha Obama" crowd! Next time Obama needs to say('cause he needs to say what we think is necessary .. never mind his own brain).. "We tortured some enemy combatants".

the cheney-cruz crowd was pissed at him too for saying we "tortured people".. saying it "aided our enemies".

[freshwest]

14. Wait, how old is he? Remember this?
