The T word aptly describes the GOP.

The R word is simply a medical term that has devolved, through use by jerks and goaders/baiters, into a hurtful expression that people use to denigrate the intellectually challenged. For this reason it has fallen out of favor.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.

Tell me more...
