8. Stimulating discussion over a wide variety of subjects...
with interesting people. Many of our goals are common ones...end the war, gay marriage, pro-choice, social justice, end poverty and so on.

I love DU!

16. A derogatory term that was used
... when one of the regulars from the Astrology/Spirituality Forum posted about manifesting/meditation/magick/positive thoughts on a thread in GD awhile back ... just before the primaries, I think ...


http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=245&topic_id=34514&mesg_id=34514


We've adopted the term and use it amongst ourselves in good humor.

21. Your current one is squashed
because it's not evenly sided. I can fix it for you if you like, but I think it would still be difficult to make out. I am familiar with the picture though.

13. Other: Saving the planet/world
Saving the United States is a very narrow aim.

15. That occurred to me, but I thought it sounded arrogant.
So, I settled just for saving the US. :P

14. I come here for 100% agreement.
I want to talk about people who aren't allowed to argue with me here. It's more fun that way. People who disagree with me are called FReepers and aren't allowed here. I like that.

:sarcasm:

THAT will stop our descent into New World Order fascism.

22. I come here to be amazed by faulty logic
and watch people trash the primary candidates. I also spend alot of time in the Photography group with artsy-fartsy people.

25. Come here to find answers to the mess our country is in and
to vent. Just spout ugly things about the insane things happening to us without our consent.

28. I come here so I can be ahead of the curve
I've found that I'm usually a couple days ahead of most news stories if I read regularly at DU.

I like to tip non-DUers off to upcoming stories that I find here.

35. Anything that interests me!
Saving the whole world (not just the United States); opposing the right-wing nuts; and finding out what's going on in current American politics. And moaning about our own government and Tony Blair.

36. Primarily I come here to get news.
It's a great repository of news that I can't find on MSM. Sometimes I come here because I'm bored and need to waste time on the internets.

I could care less about the cliquey BS that goes on here sometimes, and I don't participate in any of that kind of stuff.
