1. Sometimes I toy with the teabaggers on craigslist
   
But other then that, I do not post on any other political boards.

Craig's list again... who knew there were teabaggers there.

12. Democrats for Progress
   
its where the actual Democrats from the Democratic party are. The ones that left DU during the great invasion.

14. don't know of any, can't tolerate the "mixed" discussions, 2 many wingnuts
   
in the real world, most people are decent and there is a reasonable number of progressive or idealistic people but get online and it seems like most places you're shouted down by the truly whacky whackjobs

i'm glad DU provides a haven because i haven't really encountered another discussion forum, that is very active, that doesn't have a certain amount of wingnuttery and i'm just tired of the stupids

Is it asking too much for someone to have their mole post a link to CC?

I love how in one breath, they are legion, yet in another they are 'overwhelmed' by 'teabaggers' everywhere else they post or used to post.

If there are so many of you, why are you always outnumbered unless you keep within a gated community such as DU ?

I was just looking for something echo chamber-ish to post, and you beat me to it.   :cheersmate:

DU is the penultimate gated community. Like the Berlin Wall, they need to keep their folks IN!
