Is Democratic Underground an echo chamber too?

I see a lot of liberal postings but pretty much no counter arguments.

I say "too" because exactly 2 months ago today, I wrote my first DU web blog asking for suggestions of Good Republican Web blogs:

I am interested in a Republican web blog where members (and especially
moderators are):

1) generally open minded (i.e. moderators do not erase "anti-bush", "anti-America" posts)

2) the web site is generally high traffic with a lot of posts and differing views.

I like to be on web blogs where I am the political minority and can post serious critiques of politics without being banned for criticizing the right.

I got some really good suggestions of Republican web blogs from DU members.

Well, I wrote two "anti-bush" postings on two pro-bush web blogs. Both refused to post my messages, and when I called them on how they are an echo chamber, both web blog moderators were incredibly rude.

I made a web blog "echo chambers" to let the world know that these two web blogs are "echo chambers":

Again, I ask is Democratic Underground an echo chamber too?

I have followed the postings on Cindy for the past two days, and everyone seems to have the same political view. Is dissent allowed?

If I had a profile with a Bush icon in front of an American flag, and wrote that Hillary Clinton is a dishonest liberal, and listed all of the conservative hate groups talking points, would my messages be deleted?
