Why even visit Dicussionist if it bothers you. It's like scratching a scab. Irritation.

I don't like it.

1. To give it a chance, period

It was an idea. I checked it out. First impression was that it was a drawn-out version of the comments section of the blog at the Washington Post, which has a roster of "professional rightists." Some of them post under multiple names and do nothing but spout lines heard on Fox Noise, usually in a tone somewhere between arrogant and nasty (you can tell they like Hannity, O'Reilly and Coulter--maybe that's who pays them for their time, for all I know).

I'll give it time to sort itself out, look again, and if there's no change, I'll drop it. Who, besides Freepers, would need a board that is basically DU with Freepers welcome? If you see a salad with the option of with or without avocados on the menu, and you hate avocados, then you simply don't order the one with avocados.

7. More like bonjour

In Paris for the day for work. On my way back to the Rheinland in 10 min.

11. That's basically how I saw it

However, I see the RW bullshit everywhere, and debating them is exactly as Barney Frank described it, and that's the best case scenario.

10. If they put wings on that like Pegasus, they might have the next made-for-TV SyFy channel movie

5. Because we always need to make up our minds about things.

It's like, had to see The Passion of the Christ because it was a cultural-political "thing." OTOH, (also Mel GIBSON) "Apocalypto" was totally brilliant yet got NO resonance, figure that.
