Some of you people here are just so freaking wonderful.

[progmom]

Thanks for being you. :loveya:

[KitchenWitch]

1. Takes one to know one!

:loveya:

[progmom]

22. aw.

shucks. :loveya: backatcha.

[bicentennial_baby]

2. I agree! and backatcha!

:loveya: you're one of my favorites :)

[progmom]

26. likewise, baby!

:loveya:

[Maine Mary]

74. But who are YOU????

I don't get it :shrug:

[progmom]

75. what's to get?

i'm expressing appreciation for people on DU. :shrug:

[Redstone]

3. And then, of course, there's Redstone.

Redstone

[SOteric]

5. Who's more like a wonderful freak.

:pals:

[progmom]

9. yep.

case in point. :hi:

[no name no slogan]

4. And the rest of us blow goats, eh?

:D

[progmom]

7. not you, dearest.

:hi: you're pretty great.

[Redstone]

24. Well, if you want to, you certainly can, and I for one would never

criticize you for doing it. DU is, after all, intended to be a "big tent" kind of place, and if you want to go behind one of the flaps of said tent and, well, blow goats, that's just fine with me, none of my business. It's your right to do whatever makes you happy, after all, isn't it?

(Hey, can't you just see this post being quoted out of context on tomorrow's Rush LimpBag show: Hot News: Democratic Underground Members Tolerate, Even Advocate Goat Blowing!!!!)

Now, that would be funny.

Redstone

[Draill]

72. LMFAO!!!!! that is all

[xmas74]

6. Not me.

I just posted a snotty remark but am too lazy to delete it on another thread.

[progmom]

8. i totally disagree

i think you're great.

[xmas74]

15. Thank you.

But I should have been patient w/ the other person.

[sundog]

10. some being the operative word

:thumbsup:

[progmom]

12. go piss on your own happy thread

:thumbsup:

[DS1]

13. did you swipe the baton?

:D

[progmom]

20. i think maybe i kind of like that baton

it is somewhat addictive. :o

[asthmaticeog]

11. I, on the other hand, suck.

:P

[progmom]

17. oh yeah?

:evilgrin:

[asthmaticeog]

21. Well, I *do* try my best.

I suppose my level of success would be best determined by others, since I lack objectivity in this realm.

[stlsaxman]

14. I'm not freaking wonderful, I just play like it on DU!

but you're the real thing, and thanks!

[progmom]

19. well, you had me fooled

[WindRavenX]

38. don't know

My SO and I were trying to go down to DC, but we don't have any transportation and money is extremely tight. We were supposed to go with a campus group, but they haven't been communicating with us.

So right now it looks like a no :(

[ScreamingMeemie]

but have been lurking awhile. I agree that there are many like-minded people here and it is great to see the opinions!

[progmom]

87. welcome to DU!

i hope you enjoy it here! :hi:

[true_con]

121. Enjoying it already

Thanks! Nice to feel welcome.

[StopTheMorans]

89. oh wow, you don't have a profile either! what does your handle mean?

are you a true decepticon :shrug:

[true_con]

119. stupid play on words

and I added to my profile. I have spent some time at conservative sites and had to laugh when the neo-cons would call themselves "the true liberals" because they think they are more apt to let everyone do what they want. So I figure, if they think they are true liberals, I must be a true conservative because I want my country back!

[sundog]

90. welcome to du!

great username!

people will warm up to you really quickly!

enjoy your stay :hi:

[true_con]

120. Thanks!
