Please, please, please help me recruit my wife
She WASTES her time on the ESPN College Football message boards (although no football is being played) and she's completely surrounded by pukes. She know's DU is the greatest, but she's a little fraidy cat! She said everyone will treat her like a newbie. Perhaps some words of encouragement from you all might help.

FYI - Here's the kind of crap she has to deal with:
"What a bunch of used car-salesman they are. LOL!! Kerry is toast. What a bullsh!t war record he has. He got grazed 3 times and got 3 purple hearts, then used the Navy rule that if you got wounded 3 times, you get to go home. What a bag of crap he is."

2. Notice how the wingnuts support the military...
Only if they go and die quietly.

3. How can she take that kind of crap but worry about how she'll be
treated at DU?

Seriously, we love newbies and welcome all newbie Democrats!

4. I'm a newbie, but have been lurking longer than that.
I love DU! In fact, I have to say I'm addicted! This place gives me hope that there will be life after what Bush* has done. Tell her she'll be much happier on a site with people who are intelligent!

6. Have her hang in the lounge
and talk about football. She'll be right at home, then we can take over her MIND! :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

7. What extent were his wounds?
I have not seen the official reports. Are the records public?

8. She's my perfect woman
never met a woman who was a rabid college footall fan. Sure there's always the phony's who pretend to know the NFL - but the college game? God man, don't change her.

9. She'll feel a lot more at home here than there
:hi:

BTW, don't you love how they denigrate Kerry's war record while their boy was AWOL.
