Just dreaming...but if all 150k of us
pledged to donate $10 on Thursday night, after our President speaks

Wouldn't that be a great headline

I think it would be a delightful headline.

And I would do everything in my power to ensure the world gets to know the real DU.
According to the Bible, "know" means "yes."

It'd be a great headline if the primitives actually came through.

Sort of like a "man bites dog" story.

But the primitives aren't going to come through, as usual.

In which case it's just a "dog bites man" sort of story, not news at all.

Yes, and "pledging" is not the same as "sending it in." 

All 150,000 of us.   :lmao:

So Tombstones can donate too?
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

How long will it take to collect the amounts "pledged", 24 business hours ?
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Maybe longer: what is the exchange rate for photocopies of Cheetos stained hands and "healing white light"?

They would be better off donating that money to the folk who supposedly cannot afford to purchase a photo ID.

How many pledged money to the neckbeard, how many came through?  :lmao:
Zero might end up with fifteen bucks and a plate of mini-tacos.  :p

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”
