I know some probably won't admit it but who thinks they're out there reading and thinking about what we all think?

2. I'm so glad that DU is being mentioned on the radio
on TV and elsewhere. This site is really great with a ton of really intelligent people. I can only try to be half as insightful as some of the folks here.

23. I like him too
Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 11:52 PM by proud patriot
No he didn't knock DU just all of us who were opposed
to the war that had corespondence with him .

I think we deserve an apology. Generally I think Brown is
a good enough guy to Accept that request of an apology.

38. Aaron Brown is a sanctimonious self important arrogant Smarmy shit

Spends most of his time pretending to be a Journalist.

He should be locked in a room with Greg Palast & Robert Fisk

for a month.

With 6951 posts I hope "blondeatlast" is Jenna. That means she is hard-core Democratic, like us. Eh?

On edit: My apologies to "blondeatlast." Did not mean to use you, my DU friend.

Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 11:22 PM by kispoko
thanks..... so i assume you have all the books and other merchandise then? did you find the hemorrhoid pillow to be comfy? i'll be happy to autograph them sometime for you.... usually i just use the stamp, or my imp toby, but for my biggest fan, i've just gotta break out the pen and make it more personal.... i really go all out for the fans, they've given so much to me, mostly nothing, but a lot of it :hi:


and for a post script.... i'm quite partial myself to your rainbowish goodness.

and for a post post script, i haven't yet decided how that's to be taken, but i'll just let it hang out there anyway

32. Sure, and I wonder how many have been BANNED
for being out of line?!!!

How many have been insulted?

Now that's a funny thought.

Can you imagine dressing down someone like Walter Cronkite or Sandra Bullock or whoever>??? Yikes...

34. That's why I try to be wonderful to everybody
You just never know if the person you're telling to kiss your royal hairy butt is REALLY someone like, oh, Cheryl Teigs (*sigh*)...

Of course, being the Queen of England, I seldom use that kind of language anyway. :hi:

40. Celebs and pseudo-celebs that have name-dropped DU

Candidates I'm sure have at least HEARD of DU:

Wes Clark
