I thought this was really well said, Rob.
Who lives in the ocean under the sea!!!????
Gosh I love sponge Bob with the kids. So good.
There are a million places on the internet to talk about politics and culture wars. There are very few places where you can just connect with people over something you all enjoy.
I have zero interest in repeating the shitfest that political threads on a fishing forum turn into. I have even less interest in spending my vanishingly small amount of free time and energy running such a place.
Post about your lives, post about your kids, post about your fishing. Those are the important things. I give zero shits who you vote for.
Remember, nobody was ever convinced of anything by arguing about it on the internet.

Looks like the swing/bobber thread from the old forum
The progressive swingers lost that battle
Freudian slip!!!

Talk about a unicorn, I wish there was a prerequisite for and a way to verify integrity and statesmanship for anyone desiring to hold public office.
I'm not going to argue that a major reason for the POTUS election process outlined by the 68th essay of the Federalist Papers published on March 12, 1788 (and the subsequent Twelfth and Twentieth Amendments) was morally correct, but I do believe in the principle that the Union is strengthened when more populous states are not always able to subjugate the representation and needs of the people in less populated states that are dictated by their unique circumstances. Perhaps the qualities I mentioned above would help.

Humans are an odd bunch.
If ya don't like the topic why would you make the effort to tell everyone you don't like the topic.
Its like seeing a sign on the road for teriyaki and pulling over to tell the owners and people inside you have no intentions of buying teriyaki.

On the four dimensional political-axis thingy (libertarian/authoritarian are on the Y axis and conservative/liberal are on the Y axis) I always wind up in the "Right Libertarian" quadrant (which has been interesting since I've gone to school, mostly hung-out with, lived and worked in environments that are overwhelmingly left/Progressive) I'll just chime in to say kudos to you for being civic-minded enough to listen to the debate, and open-minded enough to listen critically enough to "the other side" to sort through what you agree and disagree with.

loco alto!
I watch debates to get a sense of candidates’ demeanors, and their ability/interest in answering actual questions posed to them (vs deflection and self-aggrandizement). I just loved the question about UFOs and that the answer actually ended with the word “UFOs.” I otherwise find the combat-soundbite format to be pretty weak in providing substantive policy insights.
