17. DU was founded when GWB was first elected. Dark days. Now Obama begins his second term.

Things aren't nearly perfect but they are improving. After 911 and the deification of Bush I feared that our country was poised to slip into fascism. DU was a safe harbor for me and many others.

Now the Republican Party is imploding and is being pushed around by the most extreme fringe elements of their party.

DU,collectively as well as individually, has had a hand in our country's improving fortunes,as have a number of other organizations and individuals.

I love this place.
