A while back the Politics forum was so filled with controversy and juvenile (but nasty) name calling that some folks wanted that forum to be removed from the Cellar. Many others simply stopped posting here.
I wonder if some of the enmity here is a reflection of the US political system as a whole - politicians call each other every name in the book, no real dialogue occurs between parties and factions. I am that close to "stopping posting" by refusing to vote in the national elections.
There seem to be a number of threads that pertain to this idea, but I was gone for a while with my computer to the Electronics Recovery Center - an excellent 12-step based outfit for recalcitrant machines.
I digress. My apology if this material has already been covered, but take the poll! I'm curious to see how you all would vote.
Oh yeah, you can make more than one choice if you want to confuse the issue even further!
