Wow. ABC/Yahoo story links to DU thread.


 
Followed Yahoo main page link to ABC/Yahoo story on NASA mohawk guy. and found a link within the article leads to a DU thread (a thread with few replies).

Sixth paragraph down, the word "meme" is a link, which leads to the DU post.

------------------

First came the online meme, the Tumblr and then the thousands of new followers to his @tweetsoutloud Twitter account, where he describes himself as "Flight director on the Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity mission. Exercise fiend. Mediocre shortstop."

1. DU is newsworthy.

At least when it comes to Internet memes according to Yahoo.

Cool find!

The Onion is more newsworthy than DU, at least they admit they are full of shit.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

The more sunlight that is shone on the DUmp the better for conservatives and America.

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.

ABC/Yahoo is run by idiots.  DU is full of them.

When one idiot encounters another, no, it's not a big deal.
