1000 Donations! Thank you, DUers!

[Skinner]

Thank you so much to all of you for making this quarterly fund drive a huge success! Thanks to your generosity and enthusiasm, we reached this week's goal faster than we did in any previous fund drive this year. Great job!

Your contributions show that DU is stronger than ever as we head into the fall campaign season. The members of this website are poised to play an active and aggressive role in the fight to elect John Kerry and the rest of the Democratic ticket!

I am deeply touched by the amazing group of people we have in our community. Thank you so much for supporting this website with your financial contributions, your time, your postings, and your hard work. However you contribute, I am personally indebted to all of you. You are the heart and soul of this community.

You are the best.

4. Congratulations on reaching the Goal. To donate is the least we can

do, because without DU, lord knows how the thousands of us would survive this campaign and the insanity of this admin.

Thank you Skinner for providing such an invaluable service.

10. Donate to DU

or pay big bucks for anti-depression medication. Overall DU is much a much more fun and much cheaper antidote to the crazy times we live in than prozac. Best site on the internet, bar none.

14. NO Thank You. Before I found DU........I was loosing my mind

Before DU, I was hanging out at the newsmax forum trying to fight the good fight. :(

[UrbScotty]

15. I love you, Skinner.

I'd give you a big, wet, juicy kiss, but i wonder if Rick Santorum is lurking.

[JDPriestly]

17. You're welcome, Wish it could have been more

Been donating so much more this year to so many great groups. It's a real pleasure to get involved and help those who do so much for us. It's we the people who can and will make a difference.

[in_cog_ni_to]

18. My pleasure!

Thank YOU for DU. MY sanctuary. I'd be completely nuts by now without it. :hi:

[Cooley Hurd]

22. Wish I could give more...

...but alas these are tough times.

Thanks for your work, your spirit, and your patriotism.

[Sugarbleus]

23. DU is enormously valuable..

I sit here smiling seeing that the fund drive made it's goal. I'm glad I could be part of it.

The people in DU are some of the most outstanding folks I could ever hope to meet. Great researchers and activists. DU is also the first place I look for news BEFORE I go elsewhere. DU has helped me in more ways than one.

Congrats Skinner and all of DU! :toast:

[muchacho]

24. Thank you

it's your hard work that allows all of us to vent , share and remember it's not futile to hope and dream.

[argyl]

25. You're welcome.This site is a second home and a work of art as well.

[stavka]

26. As a donor - I'd like some full discloser and transparency---

How many donated
What was the average and mean donation
What was the total donated.

I think these fair questions that would probably impact my donation in the future up or down.

[BlueCollar]

27. Thanks Skinner and all DUers

for being there every day...you have no idea how much it means to me.

28. Thank YOU for running an informative and entertaining site

:toast:

[Dem2theMax]

29. Thank YOU for my sanity.

If I didn't have this place, I'd be in a padded room right now. :crazy:

Wish I could have given more. I love DU. I no longer go to the 'news' sites. I just come here where I get everything I need to know and then some.

Thank you DU Administration. And thank you to all the wonderful 'citizens' of DU. :) :)

[Andromeda]

30. I don't know what I'd do without DU...

Some things I read here make me laugh and some things make me cry but they always make me think.

Donating whatever you can is a small price to pay for the benefits of belonging to such a large family. Dysfunctional, but family nonetheless.:)

[Ferretherder]

31. We ARE gonna' win this thing!

...and DU will have played as major a role as any other group or organization, out there, that is trying to take back our country!

I am PROUD to be a member of this internet family!
