To the men of D.U. [View all]

Millions of men laugh while Rush rages against women and millions more shrug their shoulders and ignore it. You, the men of Democratic Underground, see this as your issue as well as a women's issue.

Thank you for standing up and being counted. Thank you for saying NO MORE. Thank you.
