du gets good press

[seabeyond]

because i am really pissed right now at fellow du'ers telling me how illusion, insignificant today is. how bad kerry is and all the other crap. i read this on the general discussion board and thought it would be good for the people in this room to read. all the people that have kicked ass for so long, stuff we have to be proud about, what we have accomplished. it is all over again, after nov 3 all these democrats coming on saying what the party did wrong, what kerry did wrong, how the youth didnt show, bullshit, it was a stolen election. we did great, we had groundswell of people, the democrats were united. i wasnt going to allow all we had accomplished be dismissed by a lie. we needed to be proud of what we did. just like now, we need to be proud. calling senators and reps getting hillary and boxer and the others that at least talked voter suppression out there. we did that

HALO In the realm Our Great Leader has called "the Internets," the members of a site called Democratic Underground have been busy. Hardly a bunch of grousing liberals, the many DUers get down and dirty with matters democratic, plunging into the frustrating details of things like how a presidential election might be tampered with, or the specific ramifications of tortured legislative language. It's hands-on democracy at its finest, and a central meeting place for those who do more than talk the talk of opposing an undemocratic presidential administration.
