I agree that many members, yourself included, stepped forward to say that corruption was not beholden to any one party.
My post was directed at ALL those who are choose to make it an "us vs them" thread and those who are might turn it personal.
Ratbastid as much as said so when he said something about the "moral party".
If that continues/happens, then yes, I will close the thread, just like I have closed threads that were nothing but Democrat bashing threads or insult threads.
Let's not kid ourselves. This forum is rife with little digs at the other side. It is polarized beyond believe to the point where the rest of TFP avoids it at all costs.
Frankly, I hate that.
I wish we could discuss the issues without letting our prejudices speak for us, (occasionally ad naseum) but I am beginning to believe that for some of us, that's impossible.
So maybe it's best that those sorts of posts gravitate and live here in "Politics".
That doesn't however mean that I will like them or won't close them.
