On second thought.. I did want to mention one thing that bugs me about this post..
The post implies that the republicans are leaving the board and because of that, we cannot hold debate because democrats hold sway. I find the idea of this interesting because it assumes we are all a part of the same country. I would like to remind people that not everyone here is American. So, therefore we have members of the: COnservative party of Canada, the NDP, the Bloc Quebecois, the Alliance Party of Canada, we have British Labour Party, British National, Republican.. we have alot of views here
I think we can continue debating just fine..
