Debates

I created a thread on the site idea forum that there should be a separate forum for US politics, just to rid us of the inane stupidity that drowns this forum.

But alas, Russ was having none of it.
I remember RHP about 20 years ago and how funny the general forum was and the debates forum was full of mostly smart people giving very good perspectives on some tough topics.

Sad to see it devolve into an online version of the Gerry Springer show with the lesser-lights spewing their vitriol all over the forums. Makes me almost miss Grampy Bobby! 🤔

With the exception of Shav, the 4 of you that posted above are the worst culprits on this debate forum for shilling for a political party. I still check in on this site from time to time after joining circa 2006 but haven't posted in a long time.

The debates used to be pretty good with a WIDE variety of topics. Now all it is is American Dems yelling at American Rep's.
...[text shortened]... wait, guess i'm doing the same thing but at least it's only one thread. Tone it down folks. Geez.
No one thinks they will change a mind, grow up, little feller. We have diff reasons to chat, a game of sorts. I like to ask questions that libs will not/cannot answer, for instance. Further to watch when they try to change the facts of a post or the subject altogether. I am more into reactions than I am an actual subject. Last week i pointed out Michelle telling all us little people, in effect, we only need as much as necessary to live on....She has 3 mansions and is worth $70M. Look at their 'artful dodger' answers. I don't care what a person like that says, of course, but it was fun watching these little people defend her talking down to us all.
It could be fun for everyone, but some are just 'eat up' with problems and discontent and lose it sometimes. e,g, Go back a few months and read all the SHouse posts. Then, ...ahem...try some of mine.

Did you go to the London meet ups?

They were great!

I agree, I see libs being so snarky and into comedy, falling flat on their faces, boring sometimes. Like Colbert. I don't see conservatives doing that , we are more into keeping the libs at bay. We want them to leave us alone, in plain English. They storm a judge's house if they don't like a ruling, we don't do that. Have you ever torn down a historical statue? Were you part of a mob? Exactly.

Didn't get to London...i'm across the pond. Was funny to read the stories of the meet ups though. Good times.

The dry wit and sarcasm in the threads was pure gold in those days. I am shocked to see how far the site has fallen since i last checked in during the pre-covid years. Even the number of posters seems to have fallen off a cliff.

I went through all the threads you created in the Debates Forum. All of them are just you complaining about democrats.

Do you have NOTHING else to talk about? No?

You're the definition of a shill.

They want our stuff, man. You would not like it either.l. They are dependents....kinda like Canada is dependent upon the USA.
And lately, th3eir candidate has not had a solo interview, we do not know who she is. She has no business experience, and 58% of her aides have NO business excperience. About 18%^ have business experience.

For your entertainment, and for scary stuff to us republicans, watch Biden's TOP economic advisor... .... He cannot explain to Monica Crowley why the government borrows money.

Yeah, it was a good group back then.
And the only miscreants were the Metallica clan folk…

And even that wasn’t political.

Well if that is the case about revealing personal knowledge why did you ask me if I would contribute money to someone's sex change operation? Isn't that a wee personal as well?

You got me there, Sonhouse. You are on it. Let us not be personal, you are right. I will alert you next time I find an infraction of that rule.
It is so cool now. You....Sonhouse....will not say personal things about Trump, but instead only about his policies, and hopefully the policies of Kamal.

One thing I dislike is sarcasm disguised as sincerity.

All well and good but which party are you talking about? Just get it over and tell us like it is. I can make a guess but why don't YOU tell us. BTW, I would not be surprised Carly Simon doesn't sue you for infringement.
I bet you thought the name was SO original or maybe a joke?

uh, you want me to say which party i support even though i said they are both useless? Man, you really missed the point.

As for your carly simon reference, you think Sonhouse will sue you for stealing his name? Maybe he'll write a song about you infringing his name. I bet you thought the name was SO original or maybe a joke?
