48. I wasn't at DU in 2001.

Doesn't mean I don't know about DU. It's called due diligence. I don't want to waste my time with posers!

Wiki

Democratic Underground, also known as DU, is an online community for U.S. Democrats. Its membership is restricted by policy to those who are supportive of the Democratic Party and Democratic candidates for political office.[2] DU was established on January 20, 2001, the day Republican George W. Bush was inaugurated president.

So, MM is correct. It is not 2001. We are in the 6th year of a Democratic president.

We won! We are the "establishment" now! Stop fighting success! Move on!

Let's work to assure the election of the next Democratic president in 2016!

You clicked my profile? MineralMan Jul 2015 #19

Your title line suggests you are speaking with familiarity A HERETIC I AM Jul 2015 #41

We all choose our own thread titles, MineralMan Jul 2015 #44

And it was poorly worded, full stop. n/t A HERETIC I AM Jul 2015 #45

In 2001, we had a Republican President. MineralMan Jul 2015 #51

Fair enough. n/t A HERETIC I AM Jul 2015 #54

By "uglies" you mean those that you disagree with. Open-minded liberals welcome debate. rhett o rick Aug 2015 #60

I think you were elsewhere in 2001, and the site you were at does NOT help Democrats get elected. DisgustipatedinCA Jul 2015 #10
