We come on here, we agree and sometimes we disagree but all in all DU is my favourite site.

And I have to tell you all it is World Cup and am backing Brazil.

Sometimes, I think the dislike towards President Obama is overreaching but I understand, we vote people in who protect our interests. Here in Canada, we have this asshole Harper, and we have to live with him being our PM, if he could, he would get rid of unions. He reminds me of Reagan and I have no idea why this fool got elected for a second term. And unlike the US, Harper can be re-elected again!

shared interest amongst everyone that we stand for the principles of social justice and equality. It is through that sense of community that we make our own corner of the world a better place for others. I might disagree with some of the opinions expressed here, but I can't say that I actually dislike anyone on DU and I've only put a couple people on Ignore in the three years I've been here.

I also make it a policy to remove people from Ignore shortly afterwards and when I have I found that were tomb-stoned. That says a lot.
