Answer 1

We need Michael Savage to open up a web site for unfettered political discussion!

Answer 2

GBA/AL, Well, Son, I guess This is the fastest way to contact several folks, in a hurry.
Another question deleted, and more violations to me.
M.G., At this rate, I will soon forget which account I am using.
Seems some people think I am 'a dangerous person', simply because I DO think the 17 or so candidates are all about the same !!!
OOHHH, well, (in French) 'Se le viv, viv le se', (In Spanish) 'Tal es vida, vida es tal', and (in English) 'Such is life, life is such'.
SHUCKS, FOLKS, this is more fun than Baking AND Eating bisquets made of JalapeNos, Brockwurst, Queso de Chiva(Goat Cheese), Buttermilk S.O.S., and Dark Beer.

Answer 3

for the most part this forum is full of petty bickering. i just saw someone state a simple fact - that Ron Paul raised more money in one day than any other candidate - which is a straight fact, and they got 4 thumbs down.

a lot of the users you listed above might have other accounts. or maybe they have a life outside of the internet but that's hard to imagine.

Answer 4

The short answer is the report button should be taken out period. This section as with the religion section should be deemed adults only. Most of us are I hope adults and if you can't handle adult content just don't participate. If you want to remove an offensive answer I think you should be able to delete it but not reported.
BTW, what happened to those top reporter badges that were supposed to be given out?

Answer 5

super concept ! I recommend the convention be held at Mandalay Bay. they have lots of convention rooms there ! Plus it somewhat is somewhat a attractive motel-on line casino. they actually have a coastline on the premises.

Answer 6

You left out John Skerry and a host of others deleted during the past 2 years.

Answer 7

Careful posting links to other questions, man - Yahoo apparently considers that "solicitation" and thus a violation of the TOS. Amazing, isn't it?

I miss Short Bus. He was a little off, but he was a nice guy.

This place just isn't what it used to be.

Edit - I closed my Q & A to make it harder for someone to target me. Don't make it easy for them, guys!

Answer 8

Those people are generally great contributors and their posts are generally respectful and civil. I can't imagine why they would have been removed. It does change the dynamics to have some of the most active posters removed. I hope they are all allowed back on soon.

And I agree, people of any opionion or philosophy need to be permitted to post, as long as they keep it civil and respectful.

Answer 9

I'm pretty sure the dynamic will remain as it has been. Pointless arguments will be tossed back and forth without anything ever being accomplished. But that's just me, an optimist.

Answer 10

You know the old saying, when a door closes, someone opens a window. I wouldn't worry about it much.
