Related: About this forumI'm a new poster on DU
I've been reading DU for a year or more but have just begun to post to the forums here. I describe myself as a progressive liberal who usually votes Democratic, but who will vote more for the person I prefer regardless of party. My parents were life long Democrats but all my siblings (5) are right wing wackos and born again evangelicals. I like a good debate, but will rarely respond to personal attacks and insults.

Interesting family dynamic you grew up in. You probably know how to hold your own in a political fight!

We don't communicate much after 50+ years of being on the opposite side of the fence.

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.
