I fully expect I am agitating people here though.

DU is possibly my last connection to being a Democrat.

I would go as far to say that if not for my ability to participate in DU, I would choose Independence.

Our elected representatives are doing little to retain my loyalty.

For the moment, my contributions are headed to the ACLU.
