DU is great but doesn't fill the need

1. The need for what?

Those were wild and filled with lunatics.

2. There were also people from across the spectrum

including many that were normal but had a different point of view

DU is like Bush speaking only to people who sign loyalty oaths.

6. yep, you're exactly what I mean...

shut off avenues of discussion without regard to whether or not the person may have a credible viewpoint.

No one compels you to discuss anything. Your acting just like the closeminded partisans on the other side.
Thanks for supporting my point.
