Should we keep Politics in DoO?

Should we? I'm getting really suck of seeing threads about politics. I could careless about your opinions. You aren't going to change mine and I'm not going to change yours. So can we keep it out of the lounge? I mean seriously there are so many other things we could be talking about. Like ******, no cant do that. Thong thursday...no thats out too. The new **** subscription...definitely not. Hey is there anything we can talk about in the lounge besides politics, or something that gets moved to general automotive?

We only move those types of threads when it gets heated. Send Mark a PM about having all threads about politics moved into DoO.

I am getting tired of seeing them also, but meh.

Politics + interesting or funny = OT
Politics + extreme boredom = DoO

Liberals come in all colors, creeds, shapes ect. If it bothers you when I coin someone a liberal, no, I am not sorry. McCain is a Liberal IMO. However, there are times I will coin someone a, "Bleeding Heart Liberal".... if the shoe seems to fit.

Isn't it a little depressing that the average dude here in this forum finds the discussion of information that has the potential to drastically effect them boring? Why wouldn't you be interested in the discussion of the person who will end up as head of your state? Why arn't you interested in knowning what's happening to the dollar and with inflation? What's the issue concerning discussion around Evolution vs Creation? This is the stuff that gets off-loaded to a group of around 20 active posters in the entire forum who frequent the DoO and it is vitally important to keep up on!

I never thought I'd see the day...but I'm gonna say it.... "KIDS THESE DAYS!!!"

I don't really care where the politics go. But i think it's completely retarded to make a new thread every time somebody finds a new photoshop, an article on the same topic, or the candidate makes one remark the poster does not agree with. They should all be merged into one IMO.

That thread would be confusing as ****. It's basically just VWH that makes tons of pointless threads.

Okay, I think that politics or religion pretty much are DoO topics. Does anyone disagree?

And Rex_Experience, this is a car board. It is not a political science board, it is not a religious studies board. This is a car board. If you wish to be informed about politicians running, or any number of different gods, please please please listen to your local television stations, or participate in a political science board or a religious studies board.

If it was up to me, there would not be even a lounge. There would be just the discussion of cars.
