If it looks like a strike. I call a strike.
Just read the thread. The OP asks "Why should I vote for Obama?"
and DU does not respond with
because, because, because, because, because
because of the wonderful things he does
and then a "list" of some of those wonderful things.
Apparently that would be too much work. Even to link to a journal entry showing some of his positive accomplishments

Instead, DU mostly responds with "shut up, ya whiner"
Par for the course, I guess, on a "discussion" board - a dearth of discussion.
Should I be proud, or ashamed about seeing things that way? Does a feeling of pride or shame have anything to do with whether it is true or not?
I think it is sad, but it is still true. The sad, sad truth.
