Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

It was bound to happen. They've been making up so much crap over the years about the "lame stream media" being so left-leaning at least in part because it didn't go along with their conspiracy fantasies. Now anybody who doesn't drool is "too far left." But maybe this will make some of the GOP people think, "dude...you're really off the ledge."

Fox is complicit in the Benghazi "coverup." That's just precious.

This isn't a good thing.... what if the nutjobs implode before the next election? I was hoping they'd ramp up the nuttyness and implode around the time of the next election.

Cute repartee, if you're into Gators vs. Seminoles mode - or whatever the AZ equivalent is. But if you really think it's the Dems that are the current nutjobs, let's see a little evidence.

I don't see their enthusiasm diminishing in the near future for any reason.
Or their intellects expanding.
People are crazy and times are strange. I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range.
I used to care, but, things have changed.

OK, well, that's understandable. If you get your understanding of politics from entertainment forums and think the participants are representative of mainstream party thought, then I could see why you'd think that. No, wait - even if you do that you'd still think the right-wingers are the loons.
