5. I do -- seriously
Are you a member of our local County Democratic party?
If not, you're wasting your time writing comments into an internet echo chamber. It may feel good, but it does nothing to get this country back onto the right track.

Even in the off season, you are needed to table events, register voters, go down to your state capitol and give moral support, write letters to the editor. That's what real activism is all about, because swing voters don't show up here.

9. I understand that the Democratic party needs activists
And I also understand that the D.U., is a pleasant enough liberal BBS.

But also understand that the D.U. is not a place for Democratic activism. It doesn't actually do anything. And "I've posted X times in the D.U." is nothing to brag about.

Rather, please (truthfully) post the following:

"I've registered my 200th Democrat!"

"I've knocked on my 1000th door!"

"I've tabled my 20th event!"

"I've phoned my 1000th campaign call!"

"I've gone to my 10th State capitol rally!"

"I'm a Precinct Captain (Precinct Committee Person)!"

Then you'll really have something to brag about.

12. I'm glad you are better than the rest of us.
This is the lounge, where we hang out and (try) to have some fun.

Peace.

15. You are right
feet on the ground is the way to do it, however, these celebratory threads about post counts are a tradition in the lounge, and it's just not nice to spoil them. Perhaps you should start a thread in GD about your thoughts.

21. Lighten up. This is the Lounge.
You have NO idea what RetroLounge does or does not do for liberal causes in this country.

37. Ok, fine. I got too heavy. So sue me.
The lounge is the place for such posts, and I probably rained on someone's parade. So sorry. Congratulations on the 9000th post.
I just hope you remember to show up too.

41. Oh, I show up, you can be sure of that...
I didn't disagree with your idea, just your delivery and placement.

It's all good.

20. Of course not. I'm in the 9000s myself.
Of course, I joined two years later than you, which must mean I am far too chatty.

And you know me - wasting all my time here in an internet echo chamber instead of doing something important.
