28. Welcome to DU!
I'm a mom and I have been motivated the past couple of years not only by fear but outrage at what this administration has done and continues to do in the name of "democracy" which is not democracy but actually pure greed! I ended up on DU over a year ago after the stolen election of 04 and now when I log on, I ask myself what the "outrage of the day" will be. One thing for sure, the newest outrage is always more despicable than the previous outrage. :grr:

After a couple of years exploring politics and seeing outrage after outrage pile up as so much trash, I have very little hope in our dem leadership. Far too many of them are DINOS-democrats in name only. They are corporately owned and controlled and do not serve the people they were elected to serve. Same thing with our media-it too is corporately owned and controlled. We, the people, have been dissed and screwed over big time.

At this point, I think the only way to bring about the change we want is to do it ourselves. We must be the media and tell the truth every chance we get. Your post gives me a glimmer of hope that it's already happening and that the good people of this country are getting clued into the outrages, the lies and the hypocrisy despite the heavy duty and underhanded "nutjob" (love that word!) spin by the bastards in Washington and in the Media. :bounce:
