Cruz is going to be done politically too; he's tremendously unpopular with everyone he works with... when GWB doesn't even like you you've got to be a real shit head. He built his campaign (both in Congress and his Presidential one) on being an obstructionist that wants to block government powers and that doesn't play well with a lot of his non-Tea Party compatriots.
As entertaining as this thread has been, I vote that we voluntarily abandon it. Even though the criticisms thrown around in this thread seem perfectly reasonable, they are still political opinions, and I don't want to offend or even scare off anyone who may have different political leanings. This place is a one-of-a-kind virtual water cooler in an Internet sea of inane drivel, and I'd like to keep it accessible to everyone, regardless of their political leanings.
I'd truly hate for a potential member to come here, see these political posts, and decide not to participate because they think they'd be unwelcome.

On the contrary, I think this thread shows that we can discuss politics in a fairly non partisan manner. I don't think we should take it much further, and I agree that the intent is to not make anyone feel unwelcome. I don't really think that has occurred in this thread, or it would have been closed. I think if you had asked Mark if he believed we could have a 22 page political thread without someone being severely butthurt, he would have laughed. Lets keep it civil and respectful.
It's a good think I like butthurt. Wait, what are we talking about again?
I don't think we're learning to discuss politics in a more civil manner so much as we've all united in disdain for a shitty set of options that is becoming more ludicrous with every passing day.
WE'RE MAKING THE FORUM GREAT AGAIN WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!!
Ok, this made me chuckle. I should get an orange comb over.

It would be a gazebo based wall.Be honest, TGP would build us a very nice wall. Artisanal. Boutique. True bypass. Very classy appointments.
As long as it keeps the tone bunnies away from our crystal lettuce.It would be a gazebo based wall.
