I feel bad asking for donations right now. I know times are tough for many of you.

During the eight years I have run this website, I have never received so many emails and private messages from DUers telling me that they are unable to donate. The economy is awful -- and probably getting worse. And no doubt many of you are tapped-out from donating to Obama and other Democratic campaigns.

I want to be clear: If you feel that you cannot afford to donate, please don't. We appreciate that you are part of this community, and we do not want to add any additional hardship to any of our members. We might not make our goal, but Democratic Underground is going to be okay.

To those of you who do have a little extra to spare, we would appreciate your help. Every donation helps, no matter how small. Or you might consider donating to give a star to a fellow DUer who needs it. Just click here to donate:

Even if you can't donate now, you can help DU by recommending this thread, or by kicking it back up when it drops down the page.

Thank you for your support. And thank you for helping make this the greatest community on the Internet.

David Allen
Democratic Underground Administrator

Now, I'm really disappointed with my fellow alum.

Isn't this "the greatest" at least a little bit hyperbolic?

It's a big bonfire, but recently extinguished.

The usual standard ass-kissing of the primitives, including Doug's ex-wife.

Milo Yiannopoulos "It has been obvious since 2016 that Trump carries an anointing of some kind. My American friends, are you so blind to reason, and deaf to Heaven? Can he do all this, and cannot get a crown? This man is your King. Coronate him, and watch every devil shriek, and every demon howl."

The "bad economy" doesn't have anything to do with it.  It's the "we won and now it's time to breath" mentality that will be Chief Goon's downfall.  No Christsmas for the tikes this year.

Skinner's significant other must've booked a surprise trip of rump wrangling in Barbados to celebrate the election of the Messiah and maxxed out Skin's Discover Card.
Never demand that which you are incapable of taking by force, DUmmie.
