    It's more that this place has decayed in to petty bickering and repeating the same articles over and over again. It's just boring.

    Yeah, I agree with ya, though I come back for the laughs, some of the posts are so bad they are funny.

      I do lurk from time to time, and I agree, it's quite comical at times.

        I understand what you guys are saying but I try not to be too outrageous myself. And I feel bad that we've lost some of the best and the brightest the so called left.

        As well as some who aren't quite so.....

        I'm not a big fan of heavy handed moderation, I figure we can take some shit and ignore some shit.

        I also understand moderate commentary isn't really all that interesting since it rarely elicits a reaction.

          Forum moderation isn't necessary. It is what it is - people talk about things that interest them. If other people aren't interested, they stop listening. It's a perfectly natural process.

            I agree. But there are some who want me to censor everybody.

            Personally I think the Browns page gets a little heavy handed as far as moderation once in a while.

              Yep. Particularly Zombo with people he doesn't like. But here not so much. Once you start censoring political things, you are on a slippery slope.

              When I was a forum mod, I basically just used the power to correct spelling and grammar, with a very infrequent topic lock.

                Censor- nah its a political forum, anything outside of constant name calling that is off topic should be allowed, and even then don't remove the posts but ask them to keep it on topic, but combining similar posts into one post would be a good idea(such as a main topic on immigration or race relations) would cut down on the repetitive topics.

                  Regarding the shit that Walter often posts it's natural to get angry at the constant double standard of racism but even I who am prone to heavily criticize the black community am getting soured on it. I run across black people all day every day and 99% of the time we're able to treat each other with mutual respect. Despite woody's somewhat naive protests it is possible to criticize them without resorting to calling them monkeys and apes and bullshit like that

                  Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                    Well, Walter needs to know how to voice his opinions

                    in some kind of intelligent manner, they are mostly outrageous, and/or offensive,

                    and lambasting when none is required...

                    but, the articles around here aren't the same old articles. Liberal haters just don't want

                    negativity about their side. A lot of things are going on, most of them very, very

                    worrisome things.

                    Liberals don't worry about the failures of democrats. They worry about anybody else's

                    failures. Only the first part, denoting the failures of democrats, is "boring".

                    If the reps take back the Senate, and get the presidency, "angry outrage"

                    and "bitterness" over every waking moment of those reps will

                    have them posting minute by minute.

                    Ole Shep was "frightened" by

                    the possible loss of their freedoms and economy for eight years because of "evil"

                    Bush and Cheney, and "the man" - with way too much money.

                    Of course, his hero Al Gore had "way too much money"... but that was different, eh?

                    George Soros has WAY too much money. No worries about that, either.

                    It's like "hating" Sarah Palin - far too many liberals just can not stand things not being

                    the way they want them to be, they can't stand people who are different from

                    them, and they only embrace diversity for the political power only.

                    Diversity here? Why, they can't stand it and wish it would go away, if it means

                    anything than they aren't, don't believe in.

                    Lastly, liberals TEND to only be interested in what benefits them. They thrive on

                    those benefits, because they thrive on emotionalism. The "me" generation seems

                    to be the liberal part of the generation.

                    to liberals, we should all be tolerant and inclusive. you think they are tolerant

                    of the Tea Party folks ? Accepting of Sarah Palin? nah. They hate, all too often.

                    Those libs during the eight years of Bush-Cheney NEVER left once. They left soon

                    after Obamao was elected and started having scandals on a regular basis.

                    They can't stand being the defender instead of the attacker. It's "boring" to admit

                    they are wrong about anything.

                    As with Obamao, he gloried in being the attacker, the criticizer.

                    But as to doing the job himself? Just contradicted every single one

                    of his feigned criticisms and promises he made.

                    Those liberals never ONCE in EIGHT YEARS got "bored" with bashing Bush-Cheney over the "outing" of Plame, or gas prices, or Iraq, etc..

                    Cept, it was never Bush-Cheney. They were "outraged" over drone use, over bomb use in Iraq.

                    Now? Not one word from liberals about the "indiscrimate" use of bombs or drones. Just silence.

                    They just don't like their preferred silence to be broken by anybody else, either.

                    And so, they pout and get "bored" and leave.

                    Until later and they can come back and have a field day again?

                          Furthermore, there are many, many ways to explain

                          disagreements on the board, and with things going on,

                          without the outrageous and offensive posts, and personal

                          attacks.

                                Yes. I was referring to Walter, dammit. 😎

                                However, Chris just called me Beetlejuice,

                                so I'm offended by his personal attack.

                                Although, he could just be admitting that

                                I'm brilliantly hilarious....

                                ... nah.

                                    I'm with Chris it is getting old. Backing off and lurking now and then is fine. A post titled "Today's Youth", and I have to look. A post titled "Liberals are bad" or "Black people deserve to get shot", yeah, fuck that. It's fucking stupid and it got old.

                                      I'm with Chris it is getting old. Backing off and lurking now and then is fine. A post titled "Today's Youth", and I have to look. A post titled "Liberals are bad" or "Black people deserve to get shot", yeah, fuck that. It's fucking stupid and it got old.

                                      Just to be sure you do find that behavior of those black kids indefensible do you not?

                                      I personally think it's unbelievably barbaric. Regardless of the glaring double standard.

                                        Also, and this goes for everyone, if you see a post with the word "Obamao" in the title I'm sure you could save yourself a great deal of discomfort by merely moving on to the next topic.

                                        If, in fact, those kind of posts bother you.

                                        One method I have used in reading posts by Xxxxxx Xxxxx is rolling my eyes and making the jerk off motion with my right hand. Works like a charm.
