Should we have a 2008 Election Forum (Vote)

[no name 1]

Guess we need the chat transcript here....Anyone?

oh, chat records exist, yes. Esp the name-calling.

Setting that issue aside, the quote by Obama in your siggy is nothing short of ridiculous. He is confident that he understands the world more and is more knowledgeable in foreign policy? Yeah right.....

Based on what? His youthful travels?

McCain is the most viable and qualified candidate, party lines aside. Personally, I would have selected Condoleezza Rice, had she run in the race. She is a real contender.

.

So that's it, just sweep that one under the carpet and go on to illumine's siggy. Sweet.

Thanks all for making my point as even this thread morphed into a political discussion..........

Deflection - a favorite tactic on VJ.

Is there a closing date on the poll?

I dunno. I wouldn't have thought it'll be open much longer though.

if implemented it's just going to be temporary.

OT is full of idiocy. Some of it's political, some of it's sexual and some of it just silly games for the post whores.

Why single out one form of idiocy and banish it while leaving the others alone?

We can all play idiot word games, but not everyone can talk politics. Why? Because not everyone reads. Perhaps everyone should. Then we could all play

ps. I voted no.

same here

You are a right thinking dude.!

And once this separation becomes the norm then what/

Everytime new rules are put in place, tere follows enforcement over which post belongs where even in OT. Then you have a mod, moving this post to that subforum and on and on and think about the frictions that this entail. Over what? Just so, because some people don't want to see too many political posts in OT or that the political posts are overwhelming OT.

I really think this new sub group will open up to more VJ policing and friction.

Topic filters would be a better solution...and each member can choose whether they even want to use filters or not. I agree that creating subforums could lead to more problems than solutions.

Maybe there needs to be a bit more of it especially when a member barks orders to other members to attack.......
