Almost to 1000 posts and everyone is up in a row. I think it's pointless to try to discuss "politics" in this kind of forum. Now, discussing ideas and how those shape one's worldview, that is worth discussing. Politics is a nasty business and I too can't wait until the "season" is over.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the rational and well thought out posts.Quimbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011205739049069722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8013770732504059370.post-88529571075836043722008-09-10T10:39:00.000-07:002008-09-10T10:39:00.000-07:00Interesting post on Duncan's blog about political ...Interesting post on Duncan's blog about political discussions and opinions. Duncan got drawn into a political "discussion / argument / mud wrestling match" and tried to fight it out with several anonymous bloggers. Interesting read (on both blogs).<BR/><BR/>For reference: http://pegasus-dunc.blogspot.com/2008/09/arguing-politics.html with a reference to BB2<BR/><BR/>Fortunately for all of us ... <I>"I’ll never judge a person by his politics"</I> ... makes you a better person than most of us out there. Wouldn't it be nice if people presented their position/opinions without the baggage and miss directed emotion. Most of us, including myself, could use some time thinking prior to speaking. We are fortunate that we live in a society that allows us to speak our mind -- Even if it's done in a less than stellar approach.<BR/><BR/>I can't wait for November 5th and then end of Smith/Merkley ads ... among others. I tuned out a month ago on the Smith/Merkley ads but not necessarily on the race.<BR/><BR/>I love politics ;-0Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
