53. I haven't been around in a while either but

I knew from the moment I saw the title that a couple of the sheep would descend and try to act like they don't know all the rules. That same poster you had a conversation with earlier has been all over DU in the last week spewing his anti-Obama BS but then act like they are innocent when calling them out.

Democratic Underground isn't as democratic like it was back in the day when I first joined. I missed the days when I could log on, post something and get mad comments from fellow democratic underground members. I miss the days when I could log on and know for a fact that I could talk to fellow democrats and know right away where they stand.

I miss the days where I could log on and see a few trolls try to disrupt things here and the admins give them a big fat boot to the ass showing them the door. I don't recognize the place any more. I don't.

Democratic Underground is slowly transforming into Libertarian Underground. A friend of mine over at the People's View and I love those guys over there gave me the 411 on what's going on over here. Libertarians are slowly trying to drown out our voices by posting all kind of bull shit articles about their god Edward Snowden and Glenn Greeenwald. I see it every day when I check to see what's going on.

Make no mistake, just because I'm not on and active as I used to be doesn't mean I'm not keeping an eye on my favorite group. I love seeing the articles that my homegirl sheshe is posting and I love seeing my Girl Cha kicking ass. I also enjoy watching Freshwest kick ass on occasion and if I miss any more I apologize I single those 3 out because that's who I have had the most contact with.

So keep doing what you are doing guys. Don't let these anti-Obama haters flood our group. Bounce them when you find them and keep on sailing.
