LP is Dying I agree.

Extremism is taking over on all accounts and politically wise good people have no side to hang on too anymore.

3. To: reaganisright (#0) I think that there is a quiet coming over the thought processes of thinking people. They are tired of complaining, tired of the same o same o, and are starting to weigh the costs of action NOT related to elections. IOW, why keep doing the same thing over and over again (electing Republicans or Democrats and expecting honest govt) it is time for real CHANGE, for good or ill.

But I'm finding more tards GOP-suppositories over there daily.

I opted out on that last round of banning. The flame wars, exchange of insults and hypocricy gets old. I lurk on occassion, but don't post. I've noted that there aren't as many articles posted, with an echo chamber of GOP tards for commentary.

What gets me is the number of people there that seem to be dupes, people that now understand that both Bush's screwed us over while feigning conservatism, but yet there they go, running, not walking, back to the GOP trough of slop that is out there.

Come on Blu - there's a cross-section of right-wing/libertarian ideologies at LP...

Problem is there are currently only TWO major parties. Either the GOP gets a face-lift, or a strong enough Third Party is established - THAT'S not gonna happen in time to stop the Commie-Fascist 0bama, is it?

I'm just wondering when the first Americans are going to be killed as a result of all of this, on American soil.

It's begun. Ruby Ridge, Waco, OKC (what is that missing 4 minutes on the tapes about)? The speed will quicken as more and more frogs leap out of the simmering pot.

Beck is a comedian, not a politician. You voted for the asshat who thinks he visited 57 states.

Nah, Beck told the sweet 'The View' ladies he was a "commentator." And he only said that because they caught him fibbing about them to such an extreme he could never claim he checks his facts before using them. ;-)

George Carlin of course was both a better comedian and commentator then Beck. I have watched very little of Beck myself, as I don't ever do television watching anymore. He's a flash in the pan in any event.

As for Obama, give credit where credit's due; I worked on his campaign on the grass roots level, and enjoyed every moment of it. I even spent a few days as a registered Democrat which I once was so I could vote for him in the primary in Oregon too. I have re-registered as a pacific Green however, and working with Demos was enlightening in that I saw that despite we agreed on whom to vote for in November, I really could see definitively why I could never return to that party again.

The topic of Barack Obama becomes too personal and so I don't come here to argue about him. I'm not here to do any version of BeAChooser's sort of crusade to stem an overwhelming sentiment of the majority of 4UM posters. I mean, that didn't work for George Armstrong Custer, so I prefer to agree to disagree where we do on Barack Obama and to listen to what you all have to say.

I have learned not to come into a forum with such a big head of an ego I can't easily admit when I am wrong on the rare occasion I am, nor to stay angry at most people or to make things too personal.

And I am not committed to working for or voting for Obama next time around. I worked the campaign as much for returning to something I used to do allot of and missed, and it was enjoyable and enervating meeting and working with so many folks. And when canvassing I never cut off and shushed anyone dumping angrily on the Demo ticket, because when I do that I want to hear what everyone I talk to has to say. As long as they didn't do any scapegoating of others because Obama upset them that is.

Wise move considering 4um was created by a core group who hold that both the Rs and Ds are vile politicians, unworthy of our support, never mind a vote. I could care less about Beck, although he did do a great job exposing the poison that is Acorn. And that Van Jones pelt on his belt looks cool. I just looked at Drudge. His book is beating Teddy Kennedy's release by 2 to 1. That's remarkable considering how the MSM has pimped Teddy's opus and ignored him.

Core group? Yes, people don't like to call cliques cliques. So it goes.

I know as well that 4UM is for free speech, and that like it or not, people who are both R and D do not partake the process with a sinister purpose. Many who run things perhaps, but I don't have problems with those working any side of the main political party route.

Strong arming and manipulating people not to exercise their political prerogatives. now that is scary. I would rather defend another's right to say have a love fest over Sarah Palin than to take away their right to do so.

That is one of my strongest political beliefs; the right to free speech, and the right to exercise the political efficacy of one's choice.

As for your 'core group,' it doesn't bother me like the pet political poodles Goldi has cultivated at el pee do. The posting here is far superior to what is spewed in Goldi's mess. But to the extent any group shuns or suppresses other points of views is the degree at which the group think is going to be wrong in general as they size up the political world in general and on specific issues.

And that's true of any forum's 'core group' anywhere on the Internet, not just here.

A core group began this forum after we left FU. Can you tell me any other forum where this isn't the case?

I think "core" group is more accurate than clique. A clique implies a popularity contest and if there is one thing most of the people who post here are not doing is trying to win "Miss Congeniality". A clique implies also a closed group and I don't think 4um is a closed group. More voices are welcome. While I like the people here cross fertilization of ideas and being challenged to think is one of the plus points of attending a forum. Freeptardia and El Pee are becoming monotones and thus monotonous. Besides Goldi-Pox and Rimjob's hypocrisy rub me the wrong way - I despise hypocrites.

I think JT's comment the closer approximation of reality - a lot of the obstreperous and cantankerous people who post here while they are diverse do a share majority view that as far as the R's and D's go - "A pox upon both their houses".
