I check the Greatest page daily, but the discussions get a little too rough for me, and I start throwing punches myself. And I hate doing that, because the majority of us agree on the majority of issues.

The more radical DU members (and kudos to them, seriously) should take care that they never make the same stupid mistakes that the Tea Party makes. Pick your fights wisely, Lefties!
