Thanks to Buzzflash: A reminder of why we're here:
This is the best reason to be a DUer.

"If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin." -- Samuel Adams

Yes, it's true: even patriots squabble among themselves. But don't lose sight of the goal.

I've been here only about a year but I'm damned proud to be among true patriots.

2. right there with you, ewagner...
IMO, those of us who care about civil liberties, the Bill of Rights and upholding the Constitution are the true patriots.

And the above criteria excludes the members of the Bush cabal.
