Wonderful idea! A place where grown-ups can talk politics.

He did say introduce yourself, so here goes. Came down here in 1984 from Canada. Back there I was a paid up member of the Conservative Party, but here they seem to think I am a socialist.:D Really don't care much what people think.

Hey, y'all. I don't know a thing about politics, so don't ask me any questions.:)

Good to be amongst some familiar faces.

I look forward to reading and posting to this new forum. There should be some lively discussions in here.

I hope that we as a PoliChat community will keep a lid on it, as well as modulate the heat to keep the discussion pot from boiling over.

I think it will be great!

Thanks Grumpy.

I'm a disenfrachised non-voter. Socially, I'm a liberal, fiscally a conservative. The Republicans left me behind when they sold out to the religious right, and the Democrats left me behind when they decided to wreck the economy. Now let's see... is there anyone I haven't offended yet?

Oh, by the way, I'm Grumpy's partner in this war zone.

I think both parties suck lint, and they both share blame for the economy.

I've always strived to achieve a level of balance where my democratic friends call me a wing nut and my republican friends call me a liberal.

I have one simple rule for life, harm no other. After that, it's all good.

Well pull up a chair. You summed up my feelings rather well. :)

I think everyone knows me... I know I could start a new thread too... but I'm taking the easy way out today...

BTW... I think I'm a lot like Negotiable when it comes to my support and beliefs in politics... can't stand the players in the game, and wish more people would voice their opinions about it...

What ever happened to the pitchfork and torch days is kind of my motto... I do try and make any of the protests here in DC I believe in... the more voices and bodies, the more you like to think they listen... but we all know better...

I'm a conservative, fiscally & socially, but I'd like to think that I'm not "Doctrinaire" about it. Think that we oughta have an auto industry in this country, but pretty sure the way the politicos are going about it is NOT the right way...Think the illegal aliens oughta be sent home, & a baby born here to an illegal is illegal, too. You go on welfare for more than 2 years, you can't vote. But...What a woman does w/her reproductive system is NOBODY'S business but hers, her partner's & maybe whatever God she worships. Banning stem cell research ? Get yr heads outta yr butts, guys. I'd also find a way to stop these mealy-mouth preachers whose programs are really nothing but 30 minute or hours' worth shilling for funds.

Pretty good post Sandy, the third and fourth sentence cannot be stressed enough. BTW, Ole F-Dave'll be stoppin' in your neck of the woods soon, probly within 30 miles.

Hello everybody. This looks like it might be a fun place to be. Looking forward to differing opinions. I am always willing to hear what other people think, agree or not.

Seems as good place to say hi as any! I'm fiscally conservative but with a occasional "what the hell streak" when it comes to my money but not with yours (taxes). Socially libertarian meaning as long as I'm not mooching or harming others stay outta my life. I believe we need a third party badly. Now to find an avatar!
