Greetings All, New Here
I'm new to this site and I just wanted to introduce myself. I didn't see a new members forum so I figured it would fall under General.
Up until recently I was a regular member of Dailykos. In looking for a Democratic blog with a different flavor I came across Democratic Underground. DU seems great so far, and I also like that there appears to be quite a few veterans. I'm currently on active duty in the US Army and I'm also a former Marine reservist aka "weekend warrior."
My hobbies: Chess and Numismatics (coin collecting).
My views:
Taxes: For a progressive tax system.
Abortion: Pro-choice
Drugs: For legalizing marijuana across the board. I'm on the fence with hard drugs.
Capital punishment: Against. Mostly because innocent people inevitably get the chair.
Economic systems: For well regulated capitalism.
Health care: I view it as a human right. Nobody should ever be told "F*** you pay me!" when trying to be treated.
The military: For a strong national defense. For interventionism in some cases, but not all.
Welfare: It worked for Joe Samuel the plumber Wurzelbacher, right?
Religion: I'm a Deist. I'm also for a total separation of church and state.
Abstinence Only Education: I think every politician who didn't have sex until marriage should vote for it.
President Obama: Grading on a curve, meaning considering the colossal size of the sh** sandwich he was given, I think he's doing a great job.
Gays: Pro gay rights, plus Will & Grace is hilarious. Myself, I'm straight. I keep reminding people of that but the Army refuses to boot me out.
Did I miss anything?
The DUmmies are eating it up.

I did, and USAP (U sap, :rotf: I like that!) used the universal axiom for getting thru college:
"If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with bullshit."

"and I also like that there appears to be quite a few veterans" -- :rotf:
If this guy is real, wait until he learns how few DU 'veterans' actually served.

Was Joe the Plumber on welfare?

As moling technique goes, pretty good, except the choice of a moniker. That one just screams "Ban me!" It's overreaching on the vet cred, and will come back to haunt him.
