What are your favorite websites (other than DU of course)?

I agreed to host a Democratic kickoff this week and I thought I would compile a list of websites to hand out to the attendees.

Here is the list so far. What sites did I forget? Any I should drop from this list?

Thanks!! :yourock:

20. wow great list

THANK YOU.

This deal on Tues looks neat. I volunteered to host a kickoff for the Dem party and decided to combine it with our meetup. I have received over 20 RSVPs! I just went over to the drinking liberally website and they are talking about it!

I guess I better call the Flea and see if I can reserve the party room.

It would be cool if you could come. Our meetup group has grown. You would be amazed. And we always have a great time. We have a bunch of wild liberals from Lawrence coming pretty regularly. You know how those Lawrence folks are :eyes:

I will be sure to post pictures on the MO board afterwards so check those out next week.

:hi:
