Perhaps the BEST B1G Forum anywhere, here at College Football Fan Site, CFB51!!!

Because the "stop" makes sense when it's party vs party. 


I think as a certain % of this place finds it harder and harder to defend a certain someone, the quieter any and all governmental talk has to be. 
Political talk is simpler and more civil when you don't feel compelled to defend the indefensible. 


And saying an obvious poor decision was poor is not political. 

If you think I'm trying to keep this place apolitical because I would be forced to defend a specific person, perhaps you can look back to what I said about said person before the election. It's not about any specific party or politician. 

It's that we, a bunch of reasonable and mature folks who talk about a wide range of topics, proved that when politics comes in, civility goes out. It coarsened the dialogue here, and it tended to spread like wildfire and infect everything else. We even *used* to allow policy-based discussion, but what we learned is that this was just the proverbial camel's nose in the tent
camel's nose in the tent... We eventually loosened and loosened and loosened, and this became a politics board rather than a CFB (or cooking!) board. 

So, no. Stop. If you want to discuss politics, head down to Area 51. They'll GLADLY oblige you. 

Time for nuking some posts. 

(When this happens, quite a pet peeve of mine)
