because you were attempting to hijack the diary and spamming it, that was the reason you got all those O's (for Obama of course).  I personally dropped a few on you as you were spamming the thread.

Spam is not cool unless you are from Austin MN or Hawaii...

I saw that and wondered as well. I disagree with you a lot, and may have even troll rated a comment I felt over the line, I think it's a tough line to judge though, I don't disagree with dissent if shown to be helpful, dissent just to fire up a rah rah rah brand of our candidate sucks do occassionally illicit a bad response. But look at it this way, the rating won't end your time here, keep on keeping on, not the end of the world (as i have gone off on people who HR me too). Well good luck to you anyways

Even if it's something you truly believe, IMO, it is bad taste to to add to the agony and a sense of hopelessness to a father who is truly fearful of having an ill child with no health insurance.

IMO, anyone with compassion would seen that diary as a genuine concern and comforting responses and hope being the right replies.

The system invites and encourages it.

Yet had the author not made it political in the diary then I WOULD NOT HAVE RESPONDED AS SUCH! However the author was not looking for advice or sympathy he posted it as a political diary as shown from this quote:

"I must confess, I was among those who took a very distant look at a lot of those issues. From when I first become politically conscious, through being a Republican, and until somewhat recently, I was more concerned about the here and now of my own life- and none of those issues impacted me directly."

Had he left it about his daughter I would have responded with "I hope everything is OK with her".  But since he made it a political diary I thought he wanted to discuss parents and children and health insurance as a political issue.

As I said in the original diary.  You were being intentionally antagonistic toward a single father with a sick baby and no health insurance.  I did not hide rate you but you certainly have no respect for that diarist.  I also imagine that you do not have any children.  If you did, you would be unable to be so callous toward a sick child and a father looking for help.

To make matters worse, the Mydd community loves us some Ragekage.  We stick up for our own and you are an unknown here.

Lastly, you began to spam the diary by continually reposting the same comment over and over.  That is HR worthy.

But he will not address health care legislation till 2012. How many health emergencies will a 1 year old go through between now and then. You can try all yo want to paint me as a troll it's not true and you can try to run me off but you will not succeed. I am your worst nightmare. I am a real liberal and proud of it. I will hold their feet to the fire. You can wimp out if you want but don't try to make me feel bad for standing up for principles. I will not apologize. I don't care how many of you gang up on me. Stand Up or Shut UP.

His plan on his own website said that he would propose legislation in 2012. Now  know I have been busy but has he announced some "bold new plan in the last 6 weeks I am not aware of?

Since this diary is content free, and is all about you, an ad hominem retort is the only one available...

Sorry. Phone. It was the jerk store calling. And they're fresh out of YOU.

There is nothing substantive I can contribute to this raging inferno of suck you have created.  I would wish you well except that I don't.  You are either here under false pretenses, or you are a prima donna, or you are simply confused as to the nature of the world around you.

I don't know which of these is true, and frankly I do not care.  I have yet to see you contribute anything substantive in any post or diary ever.  All you do is complain and play "gotcha!" games, as if that mattered somehow.

You are ill-mannered, even by the admittedly low standards of the internet.  You convince no one and annoy everyone.  What purpose do you serve?  Why are you here?  You act as though either:

a) we don't care about progressive values
b) Obama doesn't care about progressive values and we've somehow missed that "fact."

Did it ever occur to you that we want to win?  We're going to get screwed a few times.  It'll suck.  I've hated it when it has already happened (FISA) and no doubt it will happen again.  However, I'll take a handful of defeats if it nets me mostly victories.  Especially in light of the last eight years.

You come from a Red State and you are a liberal?  Surely you understand that we cannot win such states by moving far to the Left, correct?  I'm not advocating DLC mindlessness (and neither is Barack).  I'm advocating that we sacrifice from time to time in order to make the message more palatable.  It has to happen.

Cherry pick and spin however you like.  You'll always be able to find things to reinforce your pre-existing notions of who Obama is.  As he appeals to the center he'll use language that will drive you to your wit's end.

The problem is you won't see this for what it is - rhetorical posturing, for the most part.

dude you deserve to get drop-kicked for being such an asshole-

case. and. point.

healthcare proposal why don't you write a detailed diary on the proposal and suggest pointers where and how you think the proposal should be improved. If you really want a serious discussion on your thoughts to improve Obama's healthcare proposal that might be the way to go about doing it. I'm seriously looking forward to reading a diary in that vein from you in the near future.

and you should get out of the way lest they sting you to death. LMAO.

I love how they hiderate everything they don't agree with. They're like little kids sticking their fingers in their ears and yelling '

"LALALALALALALLALALALAL-I can't hear you-LALALALALALALA"

Don't let them get you down.

Alrighty, I'm done playing this Jack Troll's reindeer games for the night...he has become too predictable and, thusly, too boring.

You'd think that Trolls would try to at least come up with new material.

Typical Troll....actually, the typical MYDD Troll is of a higher caliber.
This one's good for a laugh or two....but, other than that he is of no value.

I will continue to rate him as deserved...but he is not worth any further comments.
Truthfully, he was not worth the comments I have wasted on him already.

Le Yawn.

"I will not go away and I will not be silenced"

Yourself

No sense wasting energy trying to save those who attack you from being destroyed by their own ambition.

I guess the difference between me and most of you is I will gladly pay taxes to see that ragekages daughter gets every bit of healthcare that she needs. I would willingly let them take my money to see that she receives all the care she needs. Most of you would mouth platitudes as long as it did not cost you a dime. Rage if your daughter needs medical treatment I am the one who says give it to her, no matter what!

The Democratic Party has decided that health care is not a priority for them at this time.

We know it is right because it's essentially what Senator Chuck Schumer announced two months ago.

However, I don't see what any of that has to do with Hillary or Obama.  The problem is with the Democratic Party itself.  The same people in the Senate Democratic leaderhsip hedging on health care are the same ones that have been serving us so poorly the last few years on a number of issues.  

His diary was very personal non-controversial and your comment injected controversy.  The rest of us just wanted to support him and bash the Republicans.  You had to bring up the primaries.

Is the best I can say about this "diary".

As for TR & HR - I've set a personal record in this diary alone.  The bile that shoots forth against some of our finest contributors is sickening.
