Poll question: What do you think DUers were MOST concerned with this long holiday weekend?

Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 12:28 AM by Liberal_in_LA

I'm not being totally sarcastic with this poll. I'm surprised by the number
of threads about certain issues... you know what I mean.

3. it's better people not start threads on something they don't know much or anything about

and that's the terrorist attacks. there were many threads when it happened and people are replying to threads but many admit they don't know much about it.

the walmart thing can easily get a lot of threads because people already have strong opinions about it so they have more to say . also people already have strong opinions about walmart.

4. I hadn't thought of looking at it that way. Usually I can rely on DU

for breaking news on major issues. But interest in the Mumbai issue seemed to wane quickly.

10. 200 rec-posters obviously in lala-land this weekend

They love commercialism, greed, sloganeering and jingoism. Funny thing is, they call themselves democrats who post on DU. I wonder if they're the same people who gave Hillary bash posts 800+ rec's?
