Yes, it's a rather political thread, but I think that in fighting over politics among ourselves does little else to muddy the water in a already (naurally) opinionated thread.

We can argue the larger points of politics all day, but I see this thread as a means for Meat to answer the concerns of his endorcement.
That's a big enough subject for us all.

If we want to debate general politics among ourselves there is off topic, or even better, forums elsewhere on the net devoted to the subject.

I think the best way to treat this thread is that Meat is on the podium, and we are asking him questions. It's where we have the right to ask him questions, and he has the right to reply.

The thread is quite hot as it is IMHO.
Not to mention how fast it's going.

To paraphare a f*cking great song, baby we can debate and argue all night, but that ain't getting us nowhere.

I was going to leave some of the polital debate posts up there, but people can't resist answering them.

Locked while i'm doing it.

It's not a general political debate.
There are sites for that kind of debate.

I've left some of the vids up, and a quote from Obama, because they are answering questions concerning the candidates. This has got at least some relevance here because Meat has made an endorcement.

So questions about policy, and direct answers to those questions using quotes from the candidate as source material, fair enough, but quit the in fighting on politics please.

Arguing the pros and cons of the health bill among ourselves have got nothing to do with what Meat has said about his fans, and this forum.
It's a fan forum, not a political forum.

If folks want to debate politics, there are sites for that very purpose.
The mods on those sites are, I imagine, better informed of the facts and better qualified to handle that kind of debate.

Here it does nothing but muddy the water and give folks something else to argue over in what is already a very highly strung thread.

As for a free for all political debate, there are places on the web for that very purpose.

I said OK to questions about specific points of policy, because it's relevant to the candidate that Meat has endorced (and the one he didn't), and why it's a big deal.
Answering those questions using quotes, OK, fair enough, but personal opinion about your political views, post it on facebook rather than get into fights here about it.
