I came here when they were pushing us to war with Iraq and it seemed that everybody I talked to was all for it and I was feeling like I was the only one who thought it was bullshit. I did a search with something like "iraq war bullshit" and found DU. I was relieved that I wasn't the only one who knew it was crap.

I think it is the best place on the internets to get breaking news and answers for just about anything. Sure it seems like a huge dysfunctional family at times, but like you said...it's "ours".

How Skinner, EarlG and Elad deal with it all on a day to day basis is beyond me, but they do a hell of a job. It can't be easy to please this many people, but they seem to do a damn good job at coming close.
