Which we said about 2004. And 2000 before that. Is every election more anticipated then the ones before, or are we all just susceptible to hyperbole? [/b]

 Kosmo, I think it's just some nerves out there. Only three more weeks until the most anxiously anticipated presidential election of my lifetime, which isn't much shorter than your own. All this will pass. [/b]
this is true, but feuds have been breaking out for several months... some entertaining, some not so entertaining...

It's my own observation. I couldn't care less about what the traditional corporate media have to say about it.

 anyhow. where do you draw the line on that?
 
 we previously had another boardie in a politically unrelated post call another a bitch and there was nothing done on the part of the mods. suddenly personal attacks matter when in regards to politics but not just general posting?
nothx

no it applies to general posting as well... and i'll never admit to being the most perfect moderator, it's just this particular word usage had gone beyond  acceptable

it's no wonder how shows like oc, the hill, gossip girl, smallville, laguna beach, most reality shows, etc... are so popular.  people live in highschool neighborhoods of the mind.  cut out those parts of your brain and eat it!  (it is halloween time and most zombies approve this message.)
