We have SO MANY resources here for the good. For the good of all America, our party, our candidates, our ideas, and let's not forget - for us OURSELVES. DU will buoy you up. Hey, if NOTHING else, I will always cherish DU for how the camaraderie and fellowship and support and sharing of knowledge that I gained throughout those dismal bush/cheney years.

If that's all DU ever did to help me and keep me sane, that's enough. Granted DU has done a lot more for me that's good and supportive and encouraging and consoling and even heartwarming. But mainly, DU kept me company and made me feel as though I WASN'T alone. That the onslaught of pro bush/cheney media (never mind Pox Noise from which we expect the shit to spew and the willful neglect and refusal to watchdog that we can bank on getting from them and their agenda-driven propaganda pushing, but even supposedly those we thought we could count on) did NOT reflect the whole truth. It was DU that kept me sane, and kept me company, and walked side-by-side with me through all that madness, reassuring me that I wasn't crazy and I certainly wasn't alone.

And I will NEVER forget that. And if I can ever even try to begin to pay that forward by being there to keep YOU company and give you and our unnamed sister or brother moral support and encouragement, then that's what I'm gonna do.
