This is an amazingly detailed and thorough diary, and I love it. Fantastic.

Understood completely. I was trying to be as persuasive as possible without being abrasive, it looks like I didn’t do a good a job as I had hoped. I didn’t at all mean to suggest anybody reading couldn’t think for themselves. I guess on FDL it seems like preaching to the choir, but I wrote [...]

You don’t have to take my word for it, but I’ve seen the traffic decline and FDL is not doing fine and it is not growing and it is not profitable for Jane. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. None.
I now understand your perspective a little better. According to Alexa.com, a [...]

While touting how important it is to be “progressive” you’re calling me “retarded” and telling an unemployed person to “get a job” and then tout your paid position here and friendship with the site owner when called on it? I didn’t write my post to be “provocative” TBogg. I wrote it to be honest, and [...]

I outlined, in detail, why I think the “choices” are laid out as such (and there are several options before that I stated as more desirable) and all you’ve done is ad-hom attack, say I’m “not to be taken seriously” and mention concerns about the health of FDL.

This was meant to be persuasive, not demanding or bullying. I’m sorry it came off that way. :/

First, welcome to the Lake. Second, for myself, I would have appreciated this had it been posted weeks ago. Being posted today, by a first time poster, lessens the message for me. The effort put into the content has me questioning the motives of the post because of the timing and being a first time poster [...]

John, you’re right – it was the League of Conservation Voters I was thinking of. I messed up and overlooked that, and have corrected it. Thanks!

I’d like to suggest not engaging with either demi or biznesschic unless they actually would like to make a point about anything, it’s incredibly disheartening to see the last few dozen comments clogged up with namecalling and baseless attacks not talking about anything of consequence. Also, sorry for not saying this earlier, but the overwhelmingly [...]

That would be the federal unemployment extension that Obama got for you that ends on 12/29.
That ends on 12/29 is right, because Obama is too much of a coward to rollback Clinton’s indefensible cuts to welfare which made an arbitrary end date to unemployment benefits.
So what is voting for Jill Stein or Rocky Anderson going [...]

Please again see how I said BeerNotWar opposes me in much the same way you do, but BeerNotWar made reasoned arguments and actually talked about real things, rather than accusing people of being plants or calling names.

While I have no problem with disagreements – BeerNotWar makes a phenomenal opposing view I don’t agree with in the slightest, but I respect him tremendously for being reasoned in his analysis – comments like those from demi and biznesschic are devoid of any content whatsoever, do not address any points anybody has made in [...]

If a Republican balanced the budget by cutting heating subsidies for the poor in harsh winters rather than fossil fuel subsidies for the world’s most profitable corporations, liberals would scream. When Barack Obama does it, it’s “shared sacrifice.” If a Republican implemented “universal health care” but left over 30 million people uninsured, and the people [...]
