Ustwo

dc I have only so many hours in the day. I say my peace and sometimes respond but if I responded to every liberal who decided I was wrong about something on this forum it would be a full time job and fruitless. As a habit I've ignored some posts as by not reading so I don't feel the need to respond. Since I know I'm pissing into the wind here anyways, I don't feel too bad about it either. There are certain posters I do always read, as they often have something interesting and perhaps not typical to say, but that list has gotten smaller and smaller since I joined tfp. Again back when I joined tfp and had more energy for this I quickly discovered the moderators at the time didn't read a lot of the posts either from certain posters with perhaps the most amusing being I had to point out to moderators that telling me to 'get Karl Roves cock out of your mouth' wasn't in fact to board protocol, and that they had to even defend me as not trolling by predicting Bush would win in 2004.

As for poking the cages, sometimes its fun to point out some follies on the other side, even if I know it will get the expected response. When someone says 'hey remember the troops on Christmas' and you KNOW how it will end before the first response, there is a problem.

Sadly I don't think the problem can be solved. The politics board seems to have attracted some rather vocal members of the far to ultrafar left, people who really have no bearing on politics in the US. It is impossible to have a real conversation with them as their points of reference are to far out for there to be a dialog. It would be like trying to have a conversation on the finer points of evolution with a creationist. There is no middle ground.
