Ustwo, I happen to agree with everything that uber said in closing that thread. It was a drunken sailor. It had no idea where it was headed, only that it was lurching from side to side and spoiling for a fight. When I originally saw it, I thought very hard about moving out of Politics but decided that it was best left alone, which is what we do with over 99% of all the threads here.
I suppose I could throw this back in your lap and say that if you would actually speak your mind on subjects like you used to, you could have turned that thread into something interesting, but I won't. roachboy, ubertuber myself and the rest of the staff have had many discussions on how to build Politics. So I WILL throw this into your lap - how do you propose we do that? Or should we just get rid of it altogether since it's broken beyond repair. And please, no name calling and no driveby posts. They will irritate us equally.
