truth. Really, i used to be able to come here and get the real deal, NOW there is more spin in here then the "No spin zone." Really, we all need to grow up. Very few are going to change there minds in here, so lets all chill out for a few and be friends again.

2. You're sure right about the spin - but there are always those willing to help
and tell the truth when you ask them. :hi:

3. I'll kick it
It's really quite true. Far too many on DU are gladly sacrificing truth for the sake of a win.

4. Everyone is fighting for their candidates. We are passionate about who we think should lead us
into the future! The Obama suporters feel the same way. I am just glad that everyone is getting involved and cares about our country's future! This happens almost every election cycle. Politics is a nasty sport. We will all come together no matter who the nominee is. RELAX!

5. You don't really think spin works here, do you?
Than why do it? Seriously, it's bizarre. Far worse though is the hatred...

10. Not everyone here lies
You just have to stay around for a little bit of time, take notice of people and what they say, and learn who you can and cannot trust. It soon becomes obvious.

16. It's like Free Fucking Republic around here
There is more use of the word "liar" here tonight than on Melanie Morgan's most repulsive day.

I am going to stay in LBN and E&A until April or so

17. They are telling the truth as they see it. It's called democracy.
If you think that you will find someone here to give you an easy and pat answer, you need to go on back to freeperland. Here, we fight. We argue. And, yes, there probably is some spin.

But, we DO tell the truth here, most of the time. It's kind of an individualized thing where everybody has their own ideas and come together, sooner or later, in a consensus, with everyone's ideas having meaning and worth. Democracy is a good word for it.

Get used to it. Become a patriot and join in.

If what you are looking for is some patent, pre-packaged, slick "truth," you're looking in the wrong place. For that, you have to go to freeperland and drink some nice, calming Kool-aid.

Oh? They've got blinders there, too, nowadays. In case you get a glimpse of the cliff that this nation is headed over.
