With all due respect, I think this is an overreaction.

We have a template....the protocols for discussion in the sticky.

I dont have a solution every time I post and I dont want threads to be structured by "10 questions that should be addressed when posting on the political board."

I post here to express my thoughts on the political issues of the day raised by others. Not every discussion thread needs to be so structured or solution-oriented. Is that how you discussed the issues when standing around the office water cooler (when we had water coolers in the office)?

I may just want to raise awareness about the latest action by the White House and why I think its wrong. I dont have a solution...other than counting down the days. Others may call that "Bush-bashing". Thats cool, as long as they dont insult me personally.

Or I may post when I see something posted by others that I agree with and can offer further insight...or something I know is false of a misrepresentation of the facts and I can document it.

Or I may just want to offer a personal opinion on one or more the candidates for Pres.

This is a free-wheeling discussion board, not a classroom on political management.

IMO, the only template requirement is civil discourse.
