Dick Cheney shoots lawyer in hunting accident

And I don't hate over this, I think it's funny. I enjoy Cheney looking like a moron.

I wasn't really refering to you...just adding my joke to what you said...still as much as I value PVS, xmarksthespot and KharmaDog, everything turns out to be a Republican Bash thread,...which inh many cases is justified..but this time? I mean that can happen to everyone that'S hunting, doesn't really show any incompetence or anything...

I think he means no one read the article he posted on the last page..which, at least in my case, is true.

So the vice-president shoots a lawyer? Sounds like the government is finally reading Shakespeare. 😆

He wuz probly tryin' to off the damn shark, and failed! 😆

To be honest, I think there are a lot of people here who love/hate to discuss politics, but do so a lot. I discuss it where necessary, where I'm interested etc.

I do feel there should be a politics off-shoot forum to the GDF though. Or at least a politics thread a la the conspiracy one. Whilst I do rank these threads above Deano's, they're obviously for certain people and I think the GENERAL discussion forum is becoming more like the Political/Political Bashing Forum.

I'm not saying to stop it, not at all. I just think there is a place for that and it's not necessarily the GDF anymore. These people (PVS, KharmaDog etc) are obviously very interesting in politics in many ways, so it's only fair they are given a specific place to discuss.

Personally? I am a little tired of all the "Bush is an idiot" threads. Regardless of how intricate or indeed interesting these threads may be, it all amounts to "Politicians are corrupt." Which is all well and good if you wanna discuss that, but I don't particularly enjoy seeing it all over the GDF.

Just my two, I can live with the threads. Just saying there might be a better way forward.

yeah, I think a politics subforum would be a very good idea for an off-shoot of GDF

yes, we should know. if i have to read about what a shitty parent brittany spears is, and about who j-lo is fecking, i sure as shit better be able to find out whether or not our vice president popped a cap in someones ass.

You know, I thought about proposing this, but then it occured to me that maybe if the admins broke the forum up into too many different subgroups, while more organized and easier for people to avoid topics that they dislike, there won't be anything 'general' to discuss. Not that it would be a bad thing.

It certainly does....and I found it amusing...but well...not very important anyways.

Yeah, kind of like the whole nation needs to know who the President is screwing...no wait, they don't....Politicians are citizens also..they do have rights....

Just direct me away from the NAMBLA subgroup forum, and I'm fine with it.

Problem is "General" and "Politics" do overlap a lot.

ummm, not to pop your bubble, but such a case among citizens woould also be reported in the media. of coarse with less volume given the lack of fame.

I am saying it shouldn't....if you believe it or not...Politicians do deserve some sort of privacy.
