I don't know what I would be doing without this home away from home. I have learned so much and made so many friends here.

****Earl G a special thanks. All the election mess came about as I was recovering from some strokes. I do not know how many times I forgot the numbers or where I put them to log in. You are my hero and I am so grateful to belong to a large site like this, run and managed by people who actually care. A huge thank you to all of you who manage or help keep this place rolling.

Happy Thanksgiving all here, I am so grateful you are!

What would any of us do without this place?

Access to legitimate news reports 24/7.

Posters who are knowledgeable in a wide range of fields, politics included!

Pick a topic, any topic, and there's probably a forum for it.

And if you feel like being silly, the lounge.

Kudos to everyone who volunteers to keep the place running.

Most of all, to EarlG and Elad, thank you for this safe refuge for all of us Democrats. I can't imagine what it takes to keep this place going. Definitely a lot of your time and a lot of hard work. Know how much it is appreciated.
