General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: A truly FRIGHTENING post on DU today...."10 things to know about Snowden". [View all]bvar22
(39,909 posts)I knew it was going to be close.
I purposely left out the link to the other thread,
and avoided specific Screen Names.
I edited my original closing statement to eliminate a negative observation about the current state of DU,
and shut down after posting the OP to avoid being baited into a TOS violation.
I am finding it increasingly difficult to avoid screaming and cursing at some of them.
I was surprise when I logged on at about noon today after morning chores in the veggie Garden and found the thread still up,
and am delighted with all the recommends.
Despite the volume of posts from the conservative authoritarians,
and their ability to dominate, hijack, and SCREAM over the adults,
DU is STILL pretty much composed of "Fringe Leftists".
Thank You, DU.
My teachers in high school used to observe that I seemed to enjoy pushing the limits,
and had an uncanny ability of walking the line without falling over the edge.
