I posted the 12:02 message as a direct challenge to the Anybody But Bush fanatics here to back off on their attacks of the other progressives in this forum who are not supporting Kerry.

We get that you are voting for Kerry.

We get that you think anyone who isn't voting for Kerry is the devil incarnate.

We get that you think no one should be able to voice an opinion that differs from yours because voting for Kerry is the most important thing that needs to happen this year, bar none.

So there is the challenge. Allow discussion to take place freely here, without attacking the supporters of other candidates.

Can you rise to meet the challenge?

You have my pledge that I will not enter into any pro-Kerry dsicussions, for any reason. How about a pledge from the pro-Kerry side to not enter any discussions critical of Kerry for the express purpose of demonizing, belittling, harrassing, and otherwise trying to silence and/or discredit the people who are supporting other candidates than your man?
