I think that the way this forum might be viewed as a "joke" is a reflection of the political world in general right now. There is a lot of partisanism in this forum and the discussions are often predictable and split along party lines. The questions posed are usually loaded against one side or another as well. I don't think this is necessarily our fault or a bad thing though. I think that our discussions reflect the polarized political climate of the times which tend to exclude the folks who aren't highly politically aware or highly partisan. I enjoy discussing the issue in this board with everyone who agrees and disagrees with me, but for those non-politics out there I can see why they might see this as dry and without merit (as is often the criticism of our politicians in general)
