TA - this is why I like the getbig boards more than FR, DU, KOS, Politico, etc. We can beat each other up over politics etc all the time, but at the end of the day, every one overall is pretty cool with each other. I can honestly say, even with people I disagree with probably 99% of the time, it is rarely personal to the point of hatred, etc. You just dont get that at other places.
I have been to huffington post, kos, FR, WSJonline, etc, but I personally enjoy the getbig boards more than all the others since at teh end of the day, we still mostly have a lot in common and can be conversant with each other.
I may disagree with you on most things, but I still think you are probably really good guy. on some of the other boards, it gets downright stupid.
I was even thrown off of FR when i did not agree with Budh 100% of the time!
Exactly. I know none of it is personal and we are just expressing our views sometimes creatively with the language we use and how we present it.
I enjoy the conversation greatly and wouldn`t be here if I felt any other way.
I was thrown off of The Democratic Underground forums for supporting Mike Gravel and tried to explain why his plan of ending the IRS and Income tax and establishing a National Sales Tax is the way to go.
Mike Gravel was by far the most liberal candidate and they did not like him whatsoever. They were blinded by Barack and Hillary and I had it out with them big time. Mike Gravel pwned the shit out of Barack and Hillary at each debate, calling them out on everything and they all thought Gravel was crazy for some reason. It sickened me and it still does to this day. They treated Kucinich the same way.
