Maybe you would like to talk about the group of Hillary DUers that jump started the opening of JPR? It has the same exact behavior problems you find so abhorrent at JPR? Many used their DU names until they got called on it. It went private after the uprise here. Perhaps you remember DUers at that site making fun of my dementia? There are screen shots galore on DU if you want to dig that up. Or do you have a double standard?
I grew up in a D house. FDR, Truman, JFK, etc had the admiration of my extended family. I went door to door for Bobby in 1968 at age 11 just before he was assassinated!.
I've attended D and Labor conventions galore.
I have an autographed copy of Ted Sorensen's book. He was in the room for the first discussion of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
We took our kids to see Jesse Jackson. Two of our daughters are in the photo on the OWH front page May 1988 below.

Here I am with John Edwards in the Fall of 07 wearing AFSCME gear. I made it into his video AND the MSM.

I voted for Hillary

I first donated to Ds at Act Blue on 2008-03-25. This does not include Marta's Act Blue account, checks at fund raisers, D PACs, union PACs etc. That is an average of about $480 a year for me just on Act Blue.
