First, I should say that I'm pretty new to MyDD. I'm one of those recent Obama folks that a lot of the Clinton partisans decry on the board. I'm an old contributor to DKos, but I got tired of the echo chamber. It really didn't seem that there was very much to be learned there. Although things get a bit prickly over here, I do enjoy the dialogue. There seem to be many reasonable and well intentioned contributors.
The reason for this diary is a marked difference I noticed today between similar diaries on the two sites. On both sites a diary was posted about some pretty inflammatory remarks by Rev. Hagee, the prominent extremist right wing minister who has endorsed John McCain.
