My Last Political Post

[dellinger63]

No Brian this is a horse racing board and that's what it should be. No one's going to change my or your political persuasions on a board so it's detrimental to do so. Something about, don't discuss politics and religion with friends.
PS Did you just call me a queen? LOL

Hey, this is why Steve created a place for off-topic threads...over on ESPN, they often drew fire for clogging up the board but here there is a place for all types of discussion! I disagree with pretty much everything you post also but I enjoy the debate and I respect your opinions! Don't stop!!

Sommer,
As I said it's a personal decision. I just don't want to. I've met many on the board face to face and although we've spent a substantial amount of time together, politics have never come up even once in converstion and that's the way I feel here. I know you like Hillary and you know I can't stand her. To debate back and forth is pointless especially on a board I thoroughly enjoy visiting. I'll stiick to horses.

well, it's your decision, but i think most of us can disagree on things, without dwelling on those disagreements, or taking them personally, or whatever. i know dts and i have disagreed at times, but i don't linger on it--get it out and move on!

but certainly, it's your right not to do so any more. but we're all adults, we can handle it! well, for the most part.
as long as everyone sticks to the topic, and doesn't get personal, then i think any topic is free and fair game.

Likewise, I'm sorry you won't post, but whatever makes you happy. I take breaks from the political board just 'cause I get busy, but not 'cause I'm mad at anyone.

If anything, I think we're all here on DT closer to the Congress of some decades past, who would argue during the day and then go out to dinner together at night. It's the way it should be, really. I can't think of a single conservative here I wouldn't be happy to have a beer with.
