There is plenty of blame and responsibility for the tone of the political discourse here..despite any pleas of victimization and "lowering oneself" in response. I have made those same pleas.

And the "hit and run" shots of those who really have no interest in improving the tone and quality of the discourse (Lookout?) and who find it satisfying to contribute by furthering the cheap shots is unfortunate and adds little in the way of making the Cellar a better place.

Its only a cheap shot if you don't agree with or don't like the poster. Otherwise its called making your point and letting it go.... The opposite of the unending circular hate fest that some people are unhappy with.

My point is...if one is unhappy with the hate fest...

This kind of post...."seems to be plenty of twats and asses in this thread so"...is simply more of the same.

But, hey..post what you want and I will do the same.

Puppies taste like chicken. Esp if roasted on a skewer.

I've really enjoyed the transient good will in the preceding couple of pages; but, you can't teach an old dog new tricks, a Zebra can't change its stripes, and they can't help it, it's in their nature. All in all they're just another brick in the wall. Please prove me wrong.

The goats; however, seem to be quite versatile.

Here is a novel concept for the Politics Discussion Forum.

No links!

Or at the very least, no links to opinion columns and op/eds, that by their very nature are biased (opinionated).

Why not discuss issues between members as opposed to attempting to make a point by posting someone else's opinion.

Lets just simplify politics and you won't even need a forum for it. At any time that you have to vote, in any election it will all come down to two choices...
