who post threads

suck.

Fixed for you....

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. ####### coated bastards with ####### filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.

Agree

and Agree because there was no option for "I don't care."

I can't really imagine that someone who has intelligently made a decision on a candidate or who reads the news and watches debates, would have their opinion swayed by a posting on a forum, but maybe that's just me. (wow....really long sentence). I'm for Obama and it's because of my research about him, not the opinions of others. But I don't believe in swearing fealty, which honestly is how some fanatics seem to act.....

Alex+R.

Here's a novel idea, given that you're the resident "writer" in these forums....Why not start topics of your liking, **YOURSELF**, replete with the level of detail and "substance" that you are apparently complaining is lacking in *other peoples threads*?

Are your fingers broken? :devil:

If you want to discuss hauty taughty political issues, those that you think important, then by all means create some of your own threads to do so!

Frankly, I don't see the purpose of threads/polls like this as you're complaining about posts that you yourself say you don't like, and seeking consensus amongst others of like mind, but as we all know, you don't have to participate in those topics that don't interest you.

Simply pass them by?

Ditto.

Personally I am just tired of the labels. I should know better, seeing as it's VJ, but I am still tired of it.

I love OP Eds.......My mind is in a constant state of flux as oftentimes forum users sway me to their POV, really, no, no really....:lol:

edit: I see they didn't listen to you and moved this thread. Oh well, those mods never listen, do they?

Last time I looked there were 24 Organizers - all with the ability to move threads. ;)

I'm going to move this back as Alex did request this be left there. Thanks.

A request by the OP is all it takes to keep a poll in OT?

"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies."

I'm sure the request has to be agreeable to the mods.
