We are almost to the halfway point in the Fund drive in less than 24 hours

That is wonderful to see how generous DU'ers are. The hearts really help to spread the love around here. Especially, when the past week was so contentious.

I know last year we reached the goal in record time. Does anyone remember how long it took? Let's break that record.

1. This sucks!

I won't be able to donate until Thursday (payday) and I ALWAYS want to help the boxing glove hit the chimp! (personally, I think we should "take the gloves off" when punching the chief conservative idiot!). This time, I might not get my donation in before 1000 donations are reached!!! ARRRRRRGH.

4. lol... well it always slows a bit by wed. maybe you will make it.

i tend to like to be at the end of the drive for final punch too. did it early this time.

2. Thats because we here at DU are dedicated

Not only to the website, but to affecting change and once again making this a great land. The crappy weather probably doesn't hurt either, as people stay in more, thereby not spending as much money.

6. I just donated and gave out my hearts. It was fun and addictive

I might do it again later on tonight. I tried to find grumpy guss' with no hearts to their name. I liked being able to crush people who were critical of the whole heart thing.

7. Wanna Get 1,000 Quick? Put Rushbo's Pic Up There

Or maybe Cheney. I'm getting tired of beating the crap out of numbnutz every quarter. Give us something new to aim at.

The fun is when things get around the 975 or so mark...all of those who want to be "the one" to put the coup de grace on his assholiness.

8. I donated tonight

for the first time! I think people are very fired up (good and bad) about what is going on in our country and really want to do something! Love the hearts thing too!!!
