Thank you to all who post here.

I just got home from work and I have to say that one of my favorite parts of the day is checking in to DU. Whether we agree or not, I thank you all for sharing your knowledge. There's no place else to go to satisfy my passion for political discourse.

I clicked on your name and wanted to add that I have three Facebook friends who are 4th cousins. I've never met them in person. I enjoy genealogy too.

And I don't care who you vote for. Being polite is the way. I recommend that you stay out of the candidate forums and take GD.P with a grain of salt.

Trust me. It will help retain your sanity.

Best regards.

I love DU and posting here. Some one once posted a message, (on another website) that I must not really have a life, outside of the internet, that I must be some kind of shut in. This is the same person who said, "I bet she's not really Asian" so you can probably see like why their opinion matters to me. It doesn't but to answer that... I love DU and posting here. I love finding stories from outside the local box. Its fun for me to occasionally make the greatest page, or to have my postings noticed at all. Thank you, and everyone for having my back!!


And Hello Mia! Thanks for your post!

Update; Yeah, this has me, hooked

DU has more funny posters on average than anywhere else I've been, the wordplay here is often great.

Mostly it's the humor that's been keeping me here lately more than the politics which is quite bitter at the moment.
