I generally find that the politics threads tend to funnel into the regular presumptuous pigeonholing, while real debate is stifled by everyone taking their regular positions, which tend to reflect the sentiments of their favourite talking heads. Sometimes reminds me of CNN Crossfire.
I dunno, maybe it's just me.
