Democratic Underground and all the people who make it what it is I am thanking you for day after day having news posts

selected by and for progressive/liberal thinkers. The articles and videos posted from a wide variety of sources.
Thank you for the selections, some informative, all interesting and as a whole letting me know that being a liberal democratic (small d) is not a dead idea no matter how hard the authoritarians have tried to outright kill the idea.

I don't comment much because I am more comfortable in opposition when in a discussion but I do appreciate all of you and often spend as much time reading through the comments as I do with the articles.

I am glad this forum exists and I appreciate your thoughts. Thank you.

And it's not only the posts themselves and their content, but the myriad links and follow-ons that we can find. DU is a great resource.

I have a number of sites I visit with some regularity, but this is the only one with more-or-less daily check-ins.

The only way to stay relatively current and vaguely sane!

And thanks to my fellow DUers I remain informed, yet we are not only free to express what we feel and know that we're among kindred spirits.
