11. Welcome Sampan!

I have been a member since the Bush days and I don't know what I would have done without DU. You won't agree with everything that is said here, but all in all, it is a safe haven for Democrats/Liberals/Progressives. Trolls are rooted out pretty quickly.

16. It's a good site -- very informative and amazingly witty people here.

I laugh every single day at DU'ers who keep us all sane with cartoon gatherings and lacerating take-downs of what passes for our government these days.

People stay here for decades.

This board gave me relief from the insanity and bots on other boards.

They have infiltrated most.

I feel quite welcome here because this board is filled with very brilliant people, AKA, Democrats!:
