You never want a serious crisis to go to waste
 

:damn:

Seriously Neal, can we get the separate politics board? This is ****ing ridiculous.

Heh, I don't think that's necessary ... people just need to freakin' regulate themselves a little.

Besides, these kinds of threads would be annoying even in a dedicated forum. :|\\

I beg to differ.

The GT has been this "heated" for most of the time I've been on Subsim, they arent calming down.

I see this more or less the same as was with SH4 boards before they were separated to ATO and PTO. People with different views on things shove their opinions down the throats of everyone who has different views and the other side is doing the same. So, what we get is an endless debate which then eventually goes to namecalling and ppl taking other posts apart and checking that every darn . and , are on their place or there's hell to pay.

I don't know, some of these threads are good for ****s and giggles. They usually end in completely irrelevant bickering which occasionally amuses me. But a dedicated politics subsection would be nice, so we could keep regular tomfoolery separated from wingnutery.

This wasn't meant to be political. This was meant to ask a simple question. Are you ready for the swine flu?

Perhaps if you looked at the entire post you would have seen the question.

I'm sorry CB but that post of yours looked pretty political to me.

Take the first link out.. ;) That ought to put the focus on the flu, not how the media is ignoring an advisor and/or political statement.

This. :yep:

Oh, I see, now the chief of staff for POTUS isn't an important spokesman for the administration and its plans for what is being foreshadowed as a crisis.

I will edit it out but the question stands........are you ready?

You won't mind if I post this important part of the swine flu 'crisis' here. Do you?

"You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before."

Brother, there is an ignore button, if I was not admin, I would most definitely use it! :shucks:

Ignoring ppl is rude, momma said so. :smug:

But seriously, atleast give the politics board a though. Alot of other GT topics are just sliding off the first page because of all the, may I say, crap that is posted here day by day.

Or heck, even have one Obama thread, that would cut the new threads by 50%.

Momma is wrong, and think of it as "putting these people is a different forum" by using the ignore button.

If we made a political forum, the same problem would exist there.

When you (or me or anyone) responds to these threads, they live on. Doesn't anyone have self control around here?

Yeah, I don't like to use the ignore function either. Only one person has earned that distinction so far. :03:
