Is this Correct: Don't disagree with a Democrat or else they'll accuse you of ranting and "report you"???

Question

Is this or is this not correct?

This is the party that went bonkers at the possibility of phone taps (uh, to interecept terrorist plots) and scream that Republicans are out to steal their freedoms.

And yet if you disagree with them especially on a relatively benign Yahoo forum such as this, they get all stirred up and accuse you of "breaking the rules" and report you! Wah-wah-wah - tattletales!

Hey Dems, how many of your own have you reported for "ranting" against Republicans, and more specifically your own current President???

Uh huh.

Answer 1

okay, i'm an independent.

this doesn't really answer your question, but the phone taps you mentioned were unconstitutional, and therefore illegal.  plus they were ineffective.  are they going to catch anybody actually doing terrorist things just by trying to listen to all 300 million plus americans while they are on the phone? no.  and if they have evidence that someone may be a terrorist, there are legal ways to go about getting a phone tapped.  the problem with what the bush administration tried to do was they did it without permission from anyone but themselves.  congress never passed a bill allowing it.  it's all just the political elites trying to gain more power over us so they can eventually impose a police state on america.

Answer 2

I'm a Dem...and I have to agree with you to a degree.

My party tends to tolerate corruption more and more.

There are some good Dems though. I'm one of them

Answer 3

It's true.  I find that a majority of the reporting going on in this board is done by liberals.

Answer 4

very true

Answer 5

No.

Answer 6

No, reporting is a 2 way street with both sides guilty.

Answer 7

No, but we report you if you rant and are abusive. Spend much time in self-reflection?

Answer 8

Alot are acting like kids but there are some rep's to I think its a waste of time. I do not see the point to waste time on it does not make any sence. If there are dems and reps who like doing it let them they will lose reporting after awhile

Answer 9

We leave all of the low down ''dirty deeds'' to the Republicons!!

Democrats are working hard to 'save'' all of the hard won democracies that we cherish, while the GOP is giving them away right and left, and altering the constitution to do it! And if you want to give up YOUR freedoms, well you go right ahead, but, as far as my rights are concerned?, you leave them the h**l alone!!

Until you get that 'joke'' Bush out of the White house? you do NOT have any room to talk about'' breaking the rules''! He has got to be the biggest goof up, in the history of this country!!

Answer 10

I'm a democrat and have been reported a number of times and had questions deleted despite my best efforts to follow the terms you agree to when signing up. I did not throw a stink about it. However, it seems that whenever republicans get reported they have a whole hissy fit about it and blame it on some sort of liberal conspiracy. Don't flatter yourself. You don't deserve that much special attention.

Answer 11

I'm moderate, but I would definitely qualify this "question" as a rant. What's your definition of ranting? Why do you even ask a question if you already think you know what the answer is?  

Answer 12

Is this supposed to be a politcal question?  Seems like  a rant to me.  but I won't report you.  It goes both ways.  Dems get reported as much and the repubs.  Just suck it up and move on instead of being a crybaby about it.

Answer 13

There are a few democrats out there that are good and I'm friends with.  However, they have double standards.  If I do something then I'm either a mean person, or a racist but its ok for them to do it.  If they dont agree with me or like what I have to say, I'll get the daily violation from yahoo.

Answer 14

I've had plenty of questions and answers that Republicans obviously didn't like that got deleted. You're high if you think this only happens to Republicans.

Edit: You got some hard data to back up your claim that Democrats report more than Republicans?
