May 2014

There are dozens of DU Groups. Most have some specific subject matter, and some don't allow negative posts about whatever the subject is. That one is one of those.

It's a favorite target of some, but still is a little-used part of DU.

The people who use it are fans of President Obama.

I'm pretty sure he does. eom MohRokTah May 2014 #1
