I did a post about woman protesting the GOP in Cleveland. They did it naked. It was awesome and I did not see the "Progressives" there shouting their support.

Actually I got alerted on. Wow, DU and the said Progressives, no show, alert... sad our voice should be silenced.

I am not at all surprised yours was. Tell it. I will as well.
