1. The exact reason I never tell anyone to come to DU
Not anymore, anyway. I'm quite sure what this place has turned into wasn't quite what Skinner et. al. envisioned when starting it...poor lads.

2. Mebbe, but I'm sick and tired of rants...
in GD-P. Or anywhere else, for that matter. Even my own.

Went in there and the least offensive and most informative thread on the first page was someone asking why Hillary gave up wearing dresses on the campaign trail. Seems pants are far more comfortable on long workdays and fakes out anyone wanting to post a beaver shot. One more thing for women (and Rudy) running for office to think about. (But, did anyone ever get a beaver shot of Margaret Thatcher? Or want one?)

Everyone's done "issues," scandals, and everything else to death so there really isn't much of substance to chew on any more. Sure, there could be more substantial talk on many issues, but that would take work, so just won't happen very often-- that's the last thing the troll brigades now overwhelming the place want to do.
