There is no easy way to say this...

Well, yes there is.

This messageboard is spectacular... tons of information, great people, good discussions.

It gives me HOPE for the future and INSPIRATION just knowing that there are so many like-minded people out there- frustrated about the same things, but still working for change.

This place is awesome.

Thank you.

1. I think people get out of it what they put into it.

It's a community effort, everyone has to contribute, even if it's just moral support, or thanking someone for posting something that they agree with.

Knowing there are so many others who feel the same way is a comfort in this day and age.

2. I don't know.

I don't put nothing in it.
But I sure do get a lot out of it.
We have some of the brightest, wittiest people on the internet.

We're lucky.
Thank you to everyone.

3. I agree especially about 'the wittiest people on the internet'!

If DUers were in charge of things, Bush would never have gotten away with the very first lie he told!

I'd love it if he would come here for just five minutes ~ people here are way too smart to be fooled by his nonsense ~ his head would be spinning ~ if it weren't for DUers, I'd have given up on everything a long time ago! :-)

4. Completely agree. DU has been my lifeline for years.

I only wish I could do more than send all of my friends some of the posts I read here.

DU has made me a better citizen.

5. Amen. Me too.

6. DU rocks!

...No fun fighting the good fight alone.

7. Bright and articulate discussion is nice

but the thing that sets this place apart is the genuine concern and compassion the members show to each other. I see it all the time.

8. Agreed, this place is awesome!

It's so rewarding to hear so many people who think and feel just like I do.

9. I was really getting depressed about the U.S., and DU healed me somewhat.

I saw no light at the end of the tunnel. Then I found DU. I don't know what kind of coincidence this is, but soon after I discovered DU, the GOP began to unravel. DU rocks!
