Discussion forums mostly rightwing

As some one who spends much time in retirement participating in discussion forums i'm finding it tough if not impossible to find discussion forums dedicated to leftwing political ideology,just about all of the forums i'm finding are populated by rightwing members, the type that hate Obama.Hate liberals,hate the poor, hate blacks, Mexicans and any other visible minority Etc etc.
Are there forums dedicated to leftwing ideology or have they all been taken over by rightwing interests.

there are lots of liberal discussion forums. I'm retired military, so I know all about wingnuts on forums. I just beat back their crap and stand my ground. It actually is refreshing to see how they react when their views are not constantly validated. After time, I found that several of the liberal visitors started coming out of the woodwork to chime in and smack down idiocy.

I know I pissed them off, it was like I placed a turd in the punchbowl, but it's great.

Stick to your guns, post your views, don't back down, and you'll find that there are more liberals there than you imagine.
