Ummm... People....

[Coexist]

we have so many visitors to this site that we are at Level I.

Why is Bush still not being punched in the head?

Please donate!

(on edit: if you can't afford to right now, please don't take this as a criticism)

1. Maybe because we all gave our last buck to the Dems last week?

:shrug:

[ananda]

6. Yeah..

I was thinking the same thing. This is really bad timing for a fundraiser.
I figure that most people here gave practically their last dime to help
Dems win in the last month.

I still donated, though. This is a great site!

p.s. -- My donation doesn't show up because I had to send it by snailmail.
For some reason this site wouldn't accept my security code.

2. I'm looking for someone to donate a star to

I can't start my own thread because I can only afford one decent donation. Maybe someone will see this post. :)

3. check the post above yours.

[wryter2000]

8. Okay, now I'm confused

Nothing new there. :) BlaueEngel is already a donor.

9. but not this fundraiser - stars are good for a year

[wryter2000]

15. I will donate before the fundraiser is over

But I'd prefer to give some deserving person a star and the ability to search, etc. There are always a few of those folks.

4. Hey, waitaminute

That notation that I donated this quarter isn't right unless someone did it for me. I've been waiting to find someone to donate for.

[Coexist]

7. maybe someone did!

Maybe this can be the official "PM me if you need a star" thread.

10. K&R

That's a good idea. :applause:

[YOY]

5. Cos I donated a bit to Jim Webb and my budget can't go further than that?

Sorry. I want to, but I can't.

[Straight Shooter]

11. I agree with other assessments. Kind of tapped out.

I donated recently to give a star to someone when steve_0764 (I think that's the DU'er) was running a generous star-donation campaign here.

I have been looking at threads for fav DU'ers without a star. When I find one, I'll donate again. Seems like a lot of us have stars, though. :)

[BOSSHOG]

12. DAV, Alzheimer's, American Cancer Society, DSCC, FRA

However my check will be in the mail to DU tomorrow AM with a little lagniappe if someone else needs a star.

DU membership is a freaking bargain if one is a newshound.

13. I was putting it off

but somebody donated in my name. Thank you, whoever you are, it made my day!

That just means I'll keep paying it forward once the drive is over.

Also, I've been too busy dissing the dead (Milton Friedman) to slap Stupid around much today.

[AllegroRondo]

14. I gave what I could to help Claire McCaskill

and it was worth every penny!

[wryter2000]

17. I got you

You'll have a star in a minute.

[SmokingJacket]

18. No wait! I just got him!

Hee hee, at least he knows he's loved...

[wryter2000]

20. LOL. That always happens. n/t

16. Major personal drama.

I've got big health troubles right now. Every cent counts. I'd love to, but I just can't right now.

[zuzu98]

19. I donated for you.

You can get somebody else next time.:)

[Coexist]

21. so kind of you!

:)

[LilyLibber]

22. Oh, my god, I just saw this!

I've been away from here since 4pm yesterday, so I missed this, until I posted something just a few minutes ago and saw the "I donated" notice next to my name...THANK YOU SO MUCH, zuzu. That is very, very kind, and it has made my whole week. I'll pay it forward on the next go 'round.

Thanks again!
