Politics

there should be a politics cult

or www.politicalcrossfire.com

i think there might be

well, seeing as politics are important and they directly impact our future, I think people should post about it

if we got rid of the political threads, there would just be more room for the "holy sht im drunk rigt naw" thread or a Tanner Hall thread.

anyways its summer, were bored. As soon as the snow comes im sure all the threads will go right back to "How do I cork?"

As much as you may dislike politics and the inherent pissing matches that come along with it, conversations concerning current political topics are an integral part of our democratic system. Therefore they should be encouraged, especially among the youth, as ensures that the democratic system will continue to have informed and educated citizens. While i am not claiming that the majority of ns is educated, i do feel that the current political climate is a very important issue to discuss and should countinue to be debated on public forums such as these, for any action otherwise would equal censorship, and ultimately erode away freedom of speech.

... so shut up and let us bitch about bush and whatever else we want to bitch about. kthanksbye

yes but please do so without disrespecting others

I totally agree. The things that people say in some threads is simply rude, and there is no reason for it. But if you look at the real world mud slinging is nothing new in politics, and i guess that has been passed on to ns. However when someone is disrespectful it does very little to prove their point, instead it simply shows how little they actually know about the subject.

Political threads are fine as long as they dont become shouting matches with personal attacks.

zomg same name!
