Our progressive tax works just fine- we just need to clean up the code and get rid of all the stupid rules written to benefit small but influential minorities.

Mea Culpa DB- I knew as I was writing it that I was wasting my time, but what the hell, American gave me that time to waste. I do believe that if we stand up and shout what we believe in eventually we will be able to strip away talk radios lies and show America what we really stand for. Keeping silent and refusing to engage doesn't help anyone. I know we can't reach the idealogues, but maybe we can sway the moderates to our message.

It was a joke, Y, to make RT squirm in his desk chair.

I ain't here to elevate either group, in case you haven't noticed.
So is it a joke like the rest of your liberal spewing? Do you even read what you post?

In fact, I haven't noticed. Aside from your *claims* that you don't like either group or were once a Republican, all I'm seeing is an insistence that "we won," liberals are all open-minded sweethearts, and repetition of the idea that liberals are somehow more noble than conservatives. For not liking either group, you sure are friendly to libs and angry at cons!

Actually, I am angry at the cons on this board and on pineklan for not trying harder to have conversation. It is just a joke to them. So, I joke back. If we had a real conversation, you would see something different.

For instance, their claim that libs don't like Palin because she is "hot". I mean, come on, how can you even talk about that?

I am not as smart as you are, I know that. But, things go far deeper here than a "private" email spat with TPP. I have been conversing with him for years. He posted on another board that his sole interest in coming here was to take the board down. HE is gone, I am not.

Let me edit that last post to say, I am tired of the cons - angry is too strong of a word.

I get it Y- you don't like the way I run the board. Sorry 'bout that. I started the board under a particular premise:

Hi everyone. I know what you're thinking- why do we need another 285 board? Well, maybe we don't but a couple of us decided we'd like to continue the experiment of a truly unmoderated forum. We've seen them fail because the posters or the mods couldn't control themselves so we're gonna try it a little differently here. Mods will be elected by popular vote to avoid undue power tripping. Anyone can join. We are not planning to ban anyone-but if someone makes a nuisance of themselves we may hold elections on whether or not to blacklist. Let's see how it goes.

(P.S. I'm sure everyone knows better than to post porn- that could get us shut down)


If you object to a particular poster then suggest an election to blacklist him or her. Every board has it's trolls- the tipping point comes when non-trollish posts outnumber the trollish ones- then you have an engaging and enjoyable forum. I still say it comes down to the posters themselves. If any of us don't like the atmosphere here we have two choices; go elsewhere or try to change it ourselves. No offense Yhitzak, but you are exhorting others to change it for you. I get that you don't like RT and his style. (Apparently you have no issues with Main Man who in my opinion is 100 times worse- what's up with that?) So try changing how he responds to you by changing how you address him. Honestly, I've found RT can be quite reasonable under certain circumstances. Like many on the right he has been caught up in the hysteria being pumped out by the right wing media and believes the world as he knows it is crumbling beneath his feet. At least he is upfront with his moniker. I say it again- if you (or anyone else) don't like the atmosphere here then feel free to try to change it. You want introspective discussion? Then post your topics and feel free to ignore the inevitable trollish responses and only respond to the reasoned ones. As TP showed- eventually ignored trolls give up and leave.

Uhm, who said libs don't like Palin cuz she's hot? I can think of a lot of reasons that libs don't like Palin and that doesn't even make the list.
