I'd kind of forgotten about this place, maybe because DU was mostly okay during the election year.

Anyway, I'm glad to see the BOG's still here and filled with sane people. . . I'm sick to death of the vitriol in much of the rest of DU.

1. Hey, pnwmom.. welcome to late

night BOG.. or early morning BOG. Depending where you are located.

No vitriol here.

[asjr]

2. You are so right! I have been on the

verge of leaving here. I have been here since 2002 and am almost afraid to post here now.

3. I really appreciate BOG and folks like you.

It is what salvages DU these days for me.

4. What Cha said

But I've appreciated reading your recent posts outside of BOG!

Me - I refuse to engage with people who compare President Obama to Hitler and the US to Nazi Germany. Too many have gone there as of late, and they've lost credibility with me. It's like they conveniently forgot how the IndieTeaPublicans bandied about that illustration of President Obama as Hitler in 2009 and 2010.

5. The vitriol you speak of

is indicative of a national social disease, and I don't mean STD's.

6. DU certainly has changed and not for the better.

Having been here for so long, it is difficult to see this change. I have had to turn away s many times.

7. Hi, pnwmom!

Good to see you! It's been a while...

[Politicub]

8. It's pretty awesome here

And a great sanity check.

i just discovered the BOG a few months ago, and I'm happy that I did!

9. K&R!

Hi pnwmom! BOG

10. Welcome, pnwmom .

We like to deal in facts and sanity here.

And yes, we do appreciate the positive accomplishments of President Obama!

11. Hi back to everyone! n/t

12. Hi pnwmom

Glad the BOG is still here... can't take the rest.

13. I just find it so funny that

this site has gotten to the point where it actually needs a separate forum just for supporters of a Democratic president to congregate. Last time I checked, this site was called "Democratic Underground", not Republican Underground or Libertarian Underground. You'd think that everyone would have his back and not succumb to tunnel-vision and blind cynicism about him, but apparently that is not the case.
