Poll question: DU is...

Edited on Mon Apr-23-07 05:07 PM by live love laugh

I love DU and I love DUers.

No other place on the web has the sense of community, intelligence, diversity and panache that DU has.

I just wanted to express my gratitude for DU and for you.

Check in if you feel the same way.

:loveya: :grouphug: :toast: :pals: :headbang:

4. Du is everything and nothing.

Best forum I've ever been a part of. Some real characters here on DU. Lots of news, so much better than anything you will find on TV or on the radio. IMO. :)

12. Same here, I gave up the M$M years ago and get news online and

primarily from this site now. The M$M will go the way of CDs (well that is my hope). Total infotainment now is the M$M, no substance of any kind. Things happen and get reported on the WWW in real-time.

Plus DU rocks the casbah! :yourock:

8. Best site because it is all of the above. DU tries to be fair to all points of view

for the most part, which is pretty rare on any political site where it is preferred the members tow only the party line. The Democratic party just isn't made like that, and no honest site should be, either.

16. I've got the Rude Pundit bookmarked. A fav of mine too. Guess I'll

have to check out ironic times. I trust it's good if you recommend it. Thanks.

14. It's a great source of information, but sometimes it's downright depressing.

The rapid disappearance of my posts and threads on DU remind me that I was never one of the cool kids.

18. The best damn bar & grill on the internet! Elad's special tuna melt is to die for.

But the patty melt--too greasy.

The crowd's a bit tough on the newcomers, but they are quick to make friends if you come in with a friendly 'tude.
