Hi, BOG!!!
Oh, wow, I just returned to DU after a looooooong absence. And the BOG is still here! I think I did start this group back in '08. And now-two-term President Obama has not disappointed me. He has made an excellent President.
His eloquence has continued to inspire us. His family -- Michelle, the girls, Grandmother -- have graced the White House. His policies and achievements have made us a greater nation. Thanks to all of you for carrying the proud BOG banner through all these years!

The force is strong with our hosts, so you are in safe havens.
And we don't care what religious affiliations you espouse - it's still a big Democratic tent 'round here! 
Good to see you in the BOG! 
We are so lucky to have President Obama and his beautiful family grace the White House with dignity and humanity for all these years.
yes he is fearless. He is unfettered now, the GOP never wanted him to succeed. They foolishly cast him adrift so he would stand alone. They were the ship of fools, it is their boat that is sinking, not Obama's.
The first mate was John Boehner here~ Yes indeed, it is the worst trip they have every been on. Obama has swept the floor with them.
Their grade: Fail!
It is their boat that is sinking, not Obama's. He has his pen and his phone and the and he has brass B***s to see it through.
The Prez: + 100000000000000~
BOG
He WILL see it through! It is a beautiful thing! 
BOG
So good to see you!!!!!
Have a laptop that actually works now so I'll be around more often.
Feels great to be back! 
Thank you so much for all you do here!
Peace & Love!
Hope you and your family are doing so well~
Peace and Love & Aloha to you~
Long story - some financial problems, computer died, family issues, etc. Things are looking up and I have this new pretty cool laptop I can use to get on DU. Still learning how to use it and don't know how to post graphics (like you taught me) but it is all good. So much going on that I had to get back! Love the peace dove graphic ( I'm very much into peace). I'll be around!
d
Yeah, so many variables can come into play to obstruct us from what we'd like to do. Glad things are looking up!
Anytime I can help with more instruction on how to post images.. please let me know.
Good to hear you're going to be around.. it's going to be a long year until the primaries are Over.. and the GE!.

Peace, love, equality - all that cool stuff.
And you know it, Obama is smarter than all of them. I'd forgotten about him giving them notice about what he could do with his pen and his phone. Yessir!!! That pen and phone have been busy!!!
The BOG forever!!!!
Haters gonna hate...Obama Rocks!
He is doing it, always has! One step at a time.
BOG
We rock!
Loving it back here!!!Love it here too with people who appreciate how really excellent this President has been and continues to be!
May I give you a hug.
Two of the best of the best!
Good to be back!
It's an honor to have you posting here again. This was my first safe refuge at DU after DU2 turned into DU3 and it was like torture too many days.
I had to make a strong disclaimer (steve2470 still uses it when he posts here) as we were trolled horribly for a while. The occassional one shows up and the hosts talk to them to give a chance. Usually they won't delete something ugly, so they get banned.
I was not here in 2008 and only joined right after the election in 2010 and it was a relief for a short while. The BOG, AAA, HRC and less often HOF are where I've posted. Also steve's Weather Watchers.
Some say it's no worse here than it was in 2008 or 2010, but really this place just - well, forget it. I'm so glad to know you were a force behind this group.
As far as the GOP and the other varieties of haters go, 'They Mad? They Stay Mad!'
Clips of Obama dropping the Mic:

2015 SOTU:
those clips of our Pres! Thank you. I will NEVER forget when he said, "I won both of 'em." Not only the smartest guy in the room, but the quickest!
Happy to be back!
He was, is, and no doubt will be the very best.
I feel so fortunate that I have appreciated him while he's in Office.. It's quite a ride!
I'm also grateful for all the members of the BOG, and those who didn't hang out in the BOG but supported President Obama on DU.. who have celebrated Obama's Presidency right along side.. through thick and thin.
Peace Love and Aloha to you, DeepModem MOm~
Peace and love to all here at the BOG.
What a wonderful group!!!

Thank you much, Cha!
Couldn't ask for a better welcome back!
after my long absence. And have appreciated also your steadfast support for our Pres Obama!!!
He and Michelle have made so many connections these years while he's been POTUS.. it's going to be interesting to see what they do post Presidency. We'll be hearing more from Barack Obama.

When I joined this group, we were relegated to a small corner of DU where we could celebrate the accomplishments of Our Democratic Prez without being harassed on DemocraticUnderground.
And we here we are all now -- still relegated to a small corner of DU where we could celebrate the accomplishments of Our Prez without being harassed on DemocraticUnderground.
Well, at least we all have each other - and that's not too shabby!
S A N C T U A R Y !!!
This is an oasis of positivity and good vibes.
Hope all is good.
for starting this group. it has been a sanctuary.
