  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).

Remember when they said Obama was absolutely going to do exactly this? I do, and they were frothing at the mouth at the idea.

The only thing dumber than voting republican is not voting at all.

Hypocrisy

All it does is give them a sense of power in that 'Yeah what I'm saying is bullshit but you can't stop me and that gives me control'

So stop

You won't, of course

Your negativity is pointless drivel. You are doing nothing but discouraging people if anything at all. What an asshole.

It's just fuel. There's a point where it's an exhausting hamster wheel for the complainers, that powers the battery for abusers.

This is a typical abuser/abused pattern. It stops when the abused break the cycle.
