1. Well, since I know some of them personally...
...and know that they are most definately not "pathetic losers with no fucking life" I have no choice but to vote that Rob is a Dingbat. Then again I'd have most likely voted that way anyway. :)

Seriously though...CU is actually a pretty decent site, or was when I was a regular there. It was a good mix of people at the time and you had most views represented in one way or another. It may have changed though.

11. I prefer
CUnts, but some might have a problem with that. CUmmers is good though. Completely Unoriginal makes me mostly sad.

6. The real question
is why are DU'ers so obsessed with THEIR shitty little pissant site?

They've gotten more publicity here in the past week than they've gotten throughout their entire miserable existence.

After years, they had a couple hundred members. WHY do we want to make them more well-known? WHY do we want to give them the satisfaction of seeing their site mentioned here?

Congrats - you get today's "I Gave a Wing-Nut a Hard-On" Award

9. Because rather than having their own identity
They have to define themselves as the counterpart to us.

10. I trolled there
just now for the first time and I have to admit it's pretty sad. Completely unoriginal, bitter and humorless folks. When you attack someone's looks it just goes to show you don't have a leg to stand on.
I'm a relative newbie here to the DU and I want to thank you folks for welcoming me in. It's a pretty cool place you have here. whether or not you agree with a certain issue, it's nice to see so many divergent opinions. Over the last few years, I seemed to forget what free thinking was all about.
Take care

13. They're afraid that there might actually be an outside chance that
somewhere out there may be a liberal media.

They will hunt it down and kill it.

Witness Air America.

14. I'd say they're pathetic losers with no f-ing life; but the choices got
Monty Python's "Spam" sketch going into my head.

"Do you have anything without any 'They're pathetic losers with no fucking life' in it?"

15. Remember the NAZIS were also Pathetic Losers with No Life
Beware Pathetic Losers With No Life, especially the gullible Totalitarian ones.

As with the Nazis, they can become murderous and evil provided the State assures them they can do so with no fear of investigation/prosecution.

Seeing the way Herr Himmler* runs the Department of Bushevik InJustice, we are already halfway there.
