Its all about how bad of shape our country is in . . .

[NoBushSpokenHere]

We have seen a day of reckoning coming for the past 7 years. We have been here through two stolen elections, through a failed and illegal war. We have been here through Plame's outing, we have been here through failed 9.11 hearings, we have been here through the Patriot Act, we have been here through Habeas Corpus sp?. We have been here through the Rovian playbook, through oil companies making billions, through Katrina, through Cindy Sheehan's plight, through Michael J. Fox and through the tears of Christopher Reeve. We have been here demanding paper ballots, we have been here through Paul Hackett, through Patrick Fitzgerald's grand jury. We have been here while families have lost jobs and homes, we have been here when families have lost family members in battle. We have been here when we lost family members because of the American health care system. We have been here through GITMO and Abu Ghraib sp? We have been here through Halliburton, and we have been here when the VP mistakenly thought a man was a duck. We have been here when the MSM silenced most of the above.

We, the real backbone of the Democratic Party have been here through it all. We have been taken down to the bottom and we have wondered how much lower we could be taken. We have been here when the rest of the America tried to ignore it all. We have been here when they were watching sports or sensational news stories unrelated to anything of any political importance.

Along came Obama, letting us know he was with us. He saw and heard the same we had witnessed. He listened, and set up a great campaign in hopes to become elected and fix much of the above. Not only did he listen, but he was able to awaken those who were sleeping, and those who were otherwise silenced.

You see this year, we don't just want a Democratic President. We want real, true, change in Washington. We want all of the above, and more, fixed. How symbolic really, that our chance of change is either with our first black President or our first female President?

Whether you agree with which Democratic wind will provide those changes, if you were here through it all, you should appreciate our voice has been heard.

2. Thank you... Thank you..... THANK YOU

Hopefully this will not disappear amongst the attack threads, need kicking, I now majority
of us at DU have suffered and have seen it all to let this thing slip. We knew who
Hillary was, she has turned her back on us numerous times hence for me the reason why
she will not get my vote.

Unfortunately, we have been inundated with trolls who have master the act of mingling
even attacking other trolls, my personal opinion is, until we find a way to get rid of
them we will loose the very thing we are fighting against.

Admins need to introduce the Dkos type of governing....thats what I say. This shit has
got out of hand and I hate it, DU use to be the place for great minds, now its for piss
ant.
