Thanks to all of you for keeping sane for 6 years

Ever since I saw that banner during the inaugural, this site's kept me fighting and has helped through all the hoors of the this dark time in American history-through 9/11, Wellstone's death, the '04 loss- this place has meant the world to me.


We fucking did it.
The Limbaugh/Gingrich/Rove era comes to a close tonight after 12 horrid years.
The exploitation of 9/11 ends now.
The politics of fear are dead.

It's good to finally get to celebrate with all of you.

"From the wars against disorder,
from the sirens night and day,
from the fires of the homeless,
from the ashes of the gay:
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A."

Good night and take care

4. Honestly, I don't know how I would have managed these 6 years without

all of you on DU. You've been a source of information and security, and sanity at times. Ironically, I reflect on the words of Gerald Ford in 1974: The nightmare is over . . .

Thank you all.
