We did it

[lukasahero]

May I introduce you to our new group?

Skinner recommended we post an announcement on some of the "busier" boards but I've pretty much had it with being beat up for the week. Anyone else want to have the honors?

I'll post over in Women's World but I'm not going to GD or the Lounge with this right now. I'm just not up to it.

Thanks to everybody for making this happen, for your words of encouragement and all the support. Enjoy!

PS - Ripley, come back!

8. They're still doin' it

Top of GDP this morning:

"Bush Whore Powell on Daily Show still schilling for Bush!"

At some point people will figure out that effective strategizing and "framing" begins with language that will reach-- not alienate-- people, including political leaders and elected officials who need to hear from us. DU would be a good place to practice communication skills. There's a lot of talent here.

Maybe its too late for that, tho. People are just spinning their wheels, mouthing off, feeling tough, while the nation is "disassembled."

I wish you all the best. I said I would accept the outcome. So be it. You're private space is well deserved and well-created. You go!

9. Thanks

I haven't frequented GD or the Lounge much recently. What has been going on up there? Dare I ask?

Thanks for putting this together.

12. If you're not just a punk playing a game...

You need to call the police and turn yourself in for your RAPES and then you need to seek mental health therapy.

If you really have a guilty conscious and you want to "help" the poor sheep women your supposed female friend is sending to you, you should post specific here pal. Like who your DU friends are and where you are.

You will be tombstoned immediately for your sick disturbed statement about raping and killing women just over the border in Mexico.

GET HELP!
