 democats.com and DU,com | April 24
Over of DU.com they want to hang Hillary. But on Democrats.com they are killing all the anti-Hillary posts. The recent rules change do NOT allow them to attack leading democrat candidates, protecting Hillary , and they changed the Logo at TOP-LEFT corner to "Progressive Democrats UNITED" meaning tote the PARTY LINE, principles are second to party. Go to “democrats .com” and scroll to rights side “forums” window and lists active postings. All the * =asterisks are deleted posts. They just recently replaced the titles of deleted posts with stars so you cant see them. A few weeks ago the Hate Hillary posts got through, even one of the moderators did one.


Allowed is : AntiBush, impeach Bush, Anti-McCain, Peace in Iraq,...
From dem.com rules : "You must support the Democratic nominee for President. If you smear our nominee, you will be banned immediately.


This rule was created to create a community of and for Democrats. But during primary campaigns this rule takes on a special meaning: you must be committed to supporting the winner of the Democratic primary, even if (a) that candidate is not your preferred candidate, (b) you disagree with that candidate on issues that are important to you, (c) you don't like some aspect of that candidate's record or personality, and (d) you think that candidate "cannot win." So whenever you harshly criticize a Democratic candidate in a primary, we will ask: are you committed to supporting that candidate if (s)he wins the Democratic nomination? If your answer is no, then Democrats.com is not the right community for you"
